The New Normal

Well, it would seem that Dalila got exactly what she wanted. She'd twisted his little sister right around her paw and had made Siren beg for complete ownership of her. In compensation, Siren had purchased a new slave for him. The whole situation was irritating and he hated it. He hated Dalila. The bitch should have just done her duty. Instead, she'd incurred his wrath. Chimera wanted to sink his teeth into her. He wanted to remind her of her place. Just because Siren was a weak, fluffy, emotional thing, that didn't make Dalila any less of a slave. She was still purchased with goods. The woman was an item. A belonging. Just like this new one was as well.

Chimera barely spared a glance at the woman. It was partly a test and partly because he didn't feel like it. Would this one be as irritating as the first slave? The only reason that Dalila wasn't dead was because Siren had taken a liking to the woman. This one though... if she mouthed back or forgot her place, Chimera would be only too glad to remind her. His teeth were itching to sink into flesh anyway.

The giant, tri-colored brute motioned the woman to follow. He led her into the giant den that he'd crafted for himself and Viper. Chi took her into the spacious main chamber and pointed to another chamber off to the side. "For now you can sleep with the dogs until I figure out what to do with you." He didn't ask her name because he didn't care. She was nothing. You didn't give baskets names, so why name a slave?

"I expect you to be obedient, respectful, quiet. I expect you to anticipate my needs and give in to my every whim. If you do that, you'll suffer less." He still didn't look at her. Instead, the man wet his tongue from a dish of water on one of the shelves that he'd dug out. "There is another that lives here. Viper. You will obey her as you obey me." Now he fixed her with his mismatched gaze, only the pink eye seeing. "Do you have any questions?"
