Emelia scratched her head an shrugged. "I guess that is a good thing. Besides I like meat." She bit her lip and continued to respond, "Well, no one ever does I guess...It just happens..." She looked around the room and went to the rack that held his various pelts and meats. She smelled the many scents of beefs and skins. She then found a spot in the corner and found a small blanket and laid it on the ground and sat in the corner trying to make herself comfortable in her new home. She licked her lips and swallowed a bit after realizing how thirsty she was. She hadn't had anything to drink for at least a day and a half. She brought her knees to her chest and held them there making sure that her little dress wasn't revealing anything bad. "Um...Sir, I'm Emelia...whats your name, master?" She looked up at him shyly.
Hayley
Hayley listened to Asher intently as he described himself. He seemed like a very charming and nice human, she thought. As he put his hand on hers she blushed a noticeably bright shade of red and said softly, "I think we will too." She smiled a tiny bit and then focused on Lucian. She smiled at him as well saying "I think so too, sir, er I mean...Lucian." She corrected herself and then jumped as the mistress threw a pebble out at someone. Hayley moved a bit towards Asher a bit striken by the Devil's action and then sighed quietly relieved that she was only trying to wake up her guard. Hayley nodded to her master. Lucian whispered ino her ear and she blushed so much her whole face was red and she could feel a hot sensation all over her body. She glanced at LUcian then at Asher, then down at her lap.

Emelia watched her master contemplate over something. She carefully saw that he went through lots of mead. She didn't like mead however actually she'd never had it. She was never privileged enough being a human female. Emelia scratched the marks on her neck and Stayed silenly in her new corner. "hello master adion." she said softly to him. She pulled her short dress down a bit more over her bottom and legs.
"Hello, Mr. Evans, Mr. Lucian." a voice, the same one that sounded when Remilia threw the rock earlier, greeted them. A woman in green Chinese clothing bowed to them, then to Hayley.
"Hello, Meiling." Lucian and Asher greeted at the same time and bowed. "Hayley, this is Meiling, the guard Remilia was talking about earlier." Asher introduced her. "Meiling, this is a new servant for the mansion, Hayley."
"Mistress Remilia talked about me?" Meiling popped in. "What did she say about me? Ah! Right, I forgot. Hello, Ms. Hayley." She bowed to the new servant.
As he approached, Seljo noticed a young woman entering town. She appeared to be a werewolf, and had a scar on her shoulder. Although Cormount Town was small town, it was known for the slave trade so newcomers as well as outsiders were actually quite common. Being a rather kind gentleman, and seeing that this particular werewolf seemed to be looking for something, he decided to go up and see if there was anything he could do.
Walking up to her he said: "Hello, miss. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Emelia was a bit nervous and curious when adion said he had some aloe. "what's that?" she'd never heard of aloe before. Emelia Took his hand and smelled it , carefully analyzing the strange plant he was supposed to rub against her skin. She sniffled and almost sneezed. She looked at the Lycan carefully as he applied the plant to her neck burns. She nodded agreely to Adions request that she not call him master.
Emelia ran her hand through his hair and sat kneeling on her knees in front of him. "so you want me to clean the house sir?" she asked and looked around the home. As he put the aloe on her neck she let out a moan of relief. She closed her eyes and tilted her head back for him feeling the cold sensation the plant gave her. "that feels n-nice." she said shakily in a sort of trance state. "thank you....adion." she said his name for the first time and after he helped her tiny burns she started to trust him a tiny bit more.
Lunia was about to turn and walk off, to try and find a place to stay on her own, when a voice stopped her. Turning back slightly, she saw a vampire with purple eyes. He looked nice enough, but Lunia didn't really trust others, for respectable reasons. "I need a place to stay. And they," she said, jerking her thumb to the crowd," can't pay attention to anything but the humans." Looking back at the crowd, Lunia muttered something about people being stupid but it was so quiet that she doubted the vampire heard over the rest of the people talking.
"I will not force you to clean the house, or do anything for that matter. However, remember that as a hunter, I am not often home. You are the one who will end up spending the most time here, so feel free to clean or re-organize the furniture. The one rule that is important to me is this, don't move the furs stuff and don't re-organize the chiffarobe."Adion stated. What he said was true, he pretty much paid to have someone live in his house for him. Hopefully she would keep it in a more livable state than what Adion could, being as he usually was not home during the day and was too tired from hunting to clean.

Emelia watched the Lycan and she Gave him a small smile. "I never really got to go outside much. I didnt know plants could do stuff like that. " she looked at The plants In his hand.
She shrugged and got up and looked around for a broom. She smelled the meats again and licked her lips. Her stomach growled and she held it trying to make it be quiet. She turned to her owner, "do you have a broom? Or dustpan? " she asked him ignoring her stomach and wanting to clean.
Hayley Bell
Hayley smiled at Asher and nodded at the mistress. "yes ma'am. I understand. Thank you." she replied politely. She didn't want to get off on The wrong foot but she didn't acknowledge the fact about the beatings and such. She didn't want to think about that at the moment.
Hayley followed Asher and Lucian and then was introduced to a woman who was supposedly a guard. She nodded at the woman and smiled softly at her saying, "hello, ms. Meiling."
"There is a broom and dustpan next to the fireplace." Adion said to Emelia when she asked the question about them. Adion then added "If your hungry, feel free to cook the meat. All the dishes are clean, so that's not a problem. And if we come close to running out, I ca go hunt some more." Emelia was beginning to show that she might be what Adion had wanted, someone who would maintain the house since he never had time to.
"So, what is your name and what brings a person not interested in the slave trade into town?" If he was going to play the host, he supposed he had to learn about his guest. It was not his favorite thing in the world to do, but it was the polite thing and he was nothing if not the gentleman.
"Well, then. Shall we go?" Asher asked Hayley. He turned the enormous mansion in front of them. Enormus was the best way to describe such a place, as it was that big. It also has a lone tower with a clock. "Yeah... Wait until you see the inside..." Asher muttered before walking in, still holding hands with Hayley. Inside, everyone was moving quickly, focusing on their tasks.
"Hm... Everyone's a bit more busy compared to before..." Lucian said. "Maybe it's a holiday coming up? I'm not sure..." His eyes darted this way and that to observe the servants. Then he grabbed one on the arm. "Excuse me, but can you tell me what's going on?" Lucian asked a servant.
The servant's eyes widened when grabbed, but they relaxed when Lucian only asked the question. "Oh... Uh, Remilia just told everyone to make a grand feast..." The servant replied. "I gotta go!" Then he ran off to do his job.
"So, what is your name and what brings a person not interested in the slave trade into town?" the vampire said, but when she looked over at him she saw no real interest in his eyes. Probably better that way, because she didn't want to have everyone know about her. "Lunia. And I wasn't aware that this place was a slave trading town... I just happened to stumble upon it, I guess," she replied, looking around the town. As they walked further from the humans, she noticed the place was beginning to actually look normal. Besides few human slaves here and there, but that wasn't completely foreign to Lunia. She had seen human slaves, just not so many in one spot.
"How about you? Got a name?" she asked.

ley smile at the guard as she left then her guide mentioned if she wanted to go inside. She nodded but did not smile. She didn't like the thought that she was just bought for the soul purpose of being a servant in some silly vampires castle. Her unique person would just fade into The crowd of scared little human slaves.
She sighed as Asher led her to the door. He seemed excited to get to show her the huge castle...huge wasn't a good adjective to describe it. It seemed like a massive little kingdom.
She bit her lip and held onto Asher's hand tighter. She liked how he held her hand and she felt more comfortable about everything with him next to her. She would never have admitted it To herself especially aloud, that she was a bit scared about everything and her new life here.
"this is quite big." she said looking around the room as a servant was asked what was going on. He told them there was a feast. At The mentioning of food her stomach growled on. She quickly squeezed her stomach trying to quiet it down and blushed getting embarrassed by it.

Emelia Oakwood
Emelia sighed and bit her lip. She got a little shy again and grabbed THe broom playing with it and her fingers looking down. "um I dont know how to cook some of the meats..." she bit her lip and glanced up at him.
She wanted to sleep and have something to eat but she couldn't sleep anywhere without cleaning anything. She yawned and scratched her arm sweeping the ground in what seemed like the kitchen part of his home.
"How about you? Got a name?" She didn't seem to be asking for the sake of conversation, but rather to secure her own well-being. There was a certain aspect of this woman that seemed off somehow, Suljo couldn't pin it just yet, but it was there. He would have to delve a little bit deeper after they had both settled in.
"Yes I do. I have the pleasure of being Suljo Morana, if you had been from this area you probably heard of me before. You see, I currently run the trade here in Cormount Town though I own no slaves of my own. Have no fear though, you will not lack for comfort during your stay. Ah, here we are." The duo stood in front of a sizable, yet not large, chateau with large windows and a single door ornately carved out of ebony wood. It stood near the edge of town, on a crossroads of two side streets.
"Feel free to make yourself at home, and if you need anything just tell one of my servants."

The house was a decent size, with a black wooden door and big windows. Lunia admitted it looked nice, but wasn't sure how she felt about staying around a vampire she didn't exactly know. After a moment of hesitating, Lunia decided to go in and look around. She still had her guard up, but she didn't feel like there was any immediate danger. Maybe she was just on edge from seeing the caged humans. "Thanks," she muttered, a fail attempt at politeness.

"Oh, and maybe something sweet for two people?" Asher added in. The servant then nodded as he ran back into the kitchens. "Yeah.. I'm hungry a bit too..." Asher laughed a bit. "Takes a hungry person to know another grumbling stomach, eh?" Lucian smiled as he pushed Asher closer to Hayley a bit, then closer, then closer.
The servant came back with a slice of strawberry shortcake. "Here you are, Mr. Evans." The servant replied before running away again. Lucian snapped his fingers. Damn... They were so close...
"So shall we eat, m'lady?" Asher asked Hayley, holding the shortcake with a free hand. "I suggest an outdoor table, as it is a beautiful day outside."

Emelia listened I adion talk about coolin and the art of it. She didn't quite understand it but her stomach growled loudly again. She held it and felt a bit of the normal hunger pains that one would get If they hadnt eaten in a day and a half. She nodded and Replied in a soft innocent voice,"only a little for now." she obviously would need a lot more than what he was asking for and she knew it, but for now she remained cautious and a bit shy still. She was frightened by Lycans especially because they were the ones who had enslaved her in the first place. She took the pan and looked stupidly and wondered where the stove was.
Hayley
Hayley blushed more as Asher insisted that a servant get them something sweet to munch on, and Lucian asked for some wine or water. She smiled and looked down staying silent. She held her arm as Asher moved closer to her and closer and still closer till her arm was practically around her. She took a step a away but they were still having contact. She looked at Lucian and her exPression slightly dimmed to a tiny smile because he reminded her of her place.
She nodded in response that they should eat outside. "yes please. That sounds lovely." she said shyly. She took Asher's hand again and smiled up at him.
Asher set the slice of cake down on the table. He brought a chair from under the table, and motioned for Hayley to sit. He went ahead and did the same for himself. The human gazed into Hayley's eyes, contemplating on God knows what. He sighed a little, then said "You may take the first bite, if you wish..."
From afar, the guard smiled. "Ah... Young love..." She whispered before going back to sleep.

She looked at adion with more confusion. She'd seen plenty of the fire place type ovens or cooking pits before but understand little about the thing. She gazing curiously at it and noticed on the walls around the cooking pit was quite dirty and needed a good scrubbing. She brought her attention back to adion and thought that e was skilled in just about anything. She looked upon him with more confusion when he said sparking rocks. "no sir adion. I don't know what those are." she said in a soft voice.
Hayley
She followed Asher to the tables outside where the sun was beautiful and starting to set. She remembered how the sun was a star as an elder in the village told her a few times. She loved stars and wanted to be one. Besides stars are always free to do whatever they please and still look beautiful.
Hayley watches as Asher took out some chairs for them and she sat down saying thank you to him and smiling. She didn't get why he was able to make her smile and giggle and blush so much in one day. "may I?" she asked as she took a fork and took a tiny piece off of the cake. The moisture and flavor flooded her mouth and she couldn't stand the sweetness but wanted only more and more of it. She shook her head slightly and remembered her place and reminded herself where she was now and how she was supposed to act. Besides she would think that most people would call her and Asher's sitting at a table and eating cake a "date"
