Thread: Even royalty has it's price... [Himeko x Azayzal]

The stranger was cut off mid-sentence at the knock on the door, she looked over to it with mild interest, that changed quickly to curiosity as the twin sisters were ushered in Ahh these must be the princesses of Dumai, your father has told me much about you she had a twinkle in her eye as she quickly marched over to them. She was about the same height as them, wearing a well-worn dark robed the hood still covered her head but piercing heterochromia eyes, One blue the other chestnut brown, could be seen under her hood. Her face had sharp features making her look beautiful but deadly, something akin to a serpent, in a flash she was standing before Reika raising a slender hand, she laid her thumb and finger on either side of Reika's jaw, the movement was abrupt and sudden but as soon as her fingers were laid upon Reika she would feel her muscles grow weak and any resistance to the strangers control would be near impossible. The woman looked over Reika as though she were a piece of meat, turning her head this way and that as she uhm'd and ahh'd eyes searching over the skin before nodding Yes she will do, now for your sister she dropped her hand from Reika and moved onto Rika the same sensation washing over her body as she looked over the second sister I believe they certainly fill the price needed she announced much to the confusion of the girls. The stranger turned away from the twins with a flick of her robe and walked back to the king As I was saying the soldiers you will have, they are eternally watchful, They don't need sleep or food and nothing but magic can destroy them I believe 500 should suffice but I will need to take my payment early she said glancing back at the recovering girls. The king looked gravely at his daughters, they could be unruly and selfish but he loved them with all of his heart it would truly break their mother's heart to learn that he had traded them off for the sanctity of the entire kingdom, with war raging around them it was only a short matter of time before it came to their doors and while they had one of the most beautiful cities in all of the lands they were not known for their skilled warriors and with his daughters lack of ability to pick a suitor it had finally come to this. Looking at the she-witch he nodded I wish there was another way... but there is not Kyrin you.. have a deal he offered her his hand and with it she took a knife out of her robe a delighted smile crossing her lips, two new play-toys all for the sake of a kingdom she could barely remember. Drawing the blade across the palm of his hand she took a small vial to contain his blood before slitting her own palm, pressing the two together she muttered under her breath and the room grew dark and cold stopping suddenly after the final word was said This is a blood pact your majesty it is not one to be broken easily, if the girls leave my possession the soldiers you require will crumble and this very kingdom will quake, I will send for you when they are ready and you personally will come collect them Kyrin couldn't help but smile as she turned to her new toys, walking up to them she spoke softly Come girls you are to be mine now your inability to be tamed by prince or teacher is quite famous I believe they have a drinking song about it too she laughed softly to herself before an icy glare was thrown at them However I am no foolish prince or daft teacher I expect you to follow and in time you will on your own with that she clicked her fingers, bindings wrapped around the girls legs leaving their arms and mouths free but making them walk after Kyrin, they looked like puppets clumsily walked after the witch I have a carriage waiting for us outside, it might not be to your high standards but it will suffice for our travels she spoke to them enjoying the sounds of their rebellious mouths.
