“I—-I, bring you no harm I only seek to help you, “she says as her voice shook with uncontrollable fear. Ate aggressively took a step towards her, however once her injured paw made contact with the ground she roared out in pain falling where she stood retracting her fangs. Her roar caused Alice legs to buckle and her body to shake. Still determined to help her she slowly approaches her again with caution. When she finally reaches her in her eyes Alice saw defeat, “Allow me to help you.”

The soothing tone of her voice helped reassure Ate that Alice posed no threat to her. Alice locates her injured paw and sees a massive thorn wedged in between her second and third claw. The fur around the thorn was wet and matted from where Ate tried to remove it on her own only causing it to be pushed further into her flesh. Before leaning in she looked Ate in the eye looking for a sign signaling she had her permission to touch her. When Ate made no movement Alice leaned in with her hands removing the thorn from her aching paw. After removing the thorn Ate felt immediate relief jumping to her feet standing now face to face with Alice she flashes her massive fangs growling in anger. Ates breath felt like a blazing inferno upon her flesh turning her head she pleaded with her to spare her life.

“Please do not harm me……, “she managed to say through tears and clutched eyes. She feels Ate take another step closer and she embraced herself for a grueling yet painful death instead she felt something wet upon her cheek. Opening her eyes she sees Ate playfully licking her cheek after the fifth lick Ate runs off towards the nearby path. Trying to catch her breath and calm her heart Alice silently prays to the Gods thanking them once more for sparing her life.

Meanwhile, dressed like a commoner she slithered her way through the slums of Pythelicus known as a breeding ground for murders, thieves, and criminals. Walking into a well-known whore house she looks around and takes a seat at a table in the back. There were women fulfilling their sexual desires in every way imaginable. She had been waiting for all of 10 minutes before being propositioned for sex she disgustingly declined. Finally after what seemed like forever another body takes a seat across from her.

“Finally we met.”

“Yes, we do LaMaiya there is much to discuss.”

“Know this I hold no loyalty to no one but myself.”

“Yes, I am fully aware of your reputation quite frankly your worth is no more than swamp piss.”

“If I am such a person why wish to see me, “she says in between laughs.

“Why request to meet at a whorehouse?”

LaMaiya laughing, “Only a whore house filled with sweaty cunt bring to form great creative thinking.”

“We have a lot in common you and I and I believe we want the same thing.”

“If what we want fills my hand with coin you have my full and undivided attention.”

“I was hoping you’d say that.”

“Well, then speak Adele for I am all ears.”
