The Renwood Family (with Thamir)

[MissMonster]

Sade rolled her eyes as Roslyn dismissed the party of four, watching as Jec trekked behind her. She would've taken her chances at exploring the manor if Richard hadn't placed a hand on her shoulder, guiding her towards what she assumed was his chambers. The fledgling frowned at being stopped, crossing her arms against her chest. Hearing his words made her dark eyes widen slightly at the firm voice he used, after all, he had hardly spoken to her since. She figured it would be easy to wrap him around her finger, but instead, Richard gave off a stern demeanor almost immediately.

For a brief moment, she seemed to comply, nodding her head before stopping halfway to scowl. "Wait..surely you jest?" A laugh escaped her as they walked. "Your sister is a foolish old bat and I'm assuming the apple doesn't fall far from the tree around here. You both may own me, and I may be your responsibility...but you and Lady Roslyn live in a fantasy world if you think you can just form a family out of a commoner and a dignified lady such as myself." Seriously, they wanted to pass down fortunes and expand their businesses--but to do so with a creature like Jec and a woman of status such as Sade (she is truly in denial...), would be complicated at best.

"But whatever, I see talking about your beloved sister gets you quite bothered. I'll try to hold my tongue, lest I..." She giggled somewhat, her words laced in sarcasm. "Get a spanking or something." Sade knew she were pushing the envelope, and perhaps if she thought about it, she'd see the error in her ways. But no, the fledgling wanted out of here--despite the fact it were imminent daddy dearest wouldn't come looking for her. This was her fate...and Sade refused to believe it. Instead, she pretended to be stoic, replacing her insecurities with false bravery. "Lovely manor you have! Mine was far bigger though."

While Richard had his work cut out for him on the West Wing of the Renwood Manor, Roslyn was being asked more questions as she and Jec moved swiftly through the corridors. She turned to him with a soft smile, though, a sigh escaped her at the mention of Sade. "Before you ask away my darling, just know that I want you and Sade to get along. I know it'll be quite difficult at first...but I see you two becoming closer in the future. Just give it time. Remember that she was brought up differently as you. You're stronger than she is--show her compassion and teach her to be humble as you."

Roslyn waited patiently for the Syphalis to speak, having a hard time concealing her grin at his adorable questions. "No, Jec. I do not mind a bit of shedding. Just so long as you clean up after yourself. If you'd like...I could brush your fur for you to keep it to a minimum." The vampiress had various combs and brushes, all custom made for herself. A wonderful tool for both brushing hair--and warming backsides.

"I understand how it may be difficult for you. However, I can get some nice clothes that are custom tailored for you tomorrow evening. We'll do our best to make them as comfortable as possible, Jec." It wasn't long before Roslyn's chambers came into view, and a butler greeted them both. "Ah, good evening Lady Roslyn...and master..."

"Jec. His name is Jec. He is one of the two we brought from the auction. Jec, meet William. He's been a butler here for years--if me and Richard are no where to be found, you can always find William to assist you in anything you may need."

William smiled, bowing his head as he opened Roslyn's door for both of them. "Enjoy your stay, Master Jec." And with that, he closed the door behind him.

Roslyn's room was a beautiful shade of velvet hues and blue, decorated with gorgeous paintings from all over Fanterra. Next to her queen sized bed, was a parlor, a mirror with makeup and brushes, as well as a blue chair. Within her room was two doors, one leading into a vast walk in closet, while the other into an illustrious bathroom. An array of books littered her bed, and Roslyn laughed slightly as she picked them up. "Goodness, I apologize for the mess in here, I normally try to keep my room as tidy as possible."

The vampiress placed her books against a chest next to her bed. Taking a seat, she patted a space beside her for the Syphalis to sit. "Please, do tell me more about yourself darling. I will also share some of my own history."

Richard just gave her a cold stare as he just listened to what she wanted to say in response to all of this. He was tempted to punish her where they stood, but he did not want to seem like he had too bad of a temper, and he had told himself that he needed patience with this one. So he simply sighed as he said to her, "I appreciate the compliment."

It would be long before both vampires entered the room, revealing its red painted walls with what appeared to be a rose's stem pattern on the walls that went up to the ceiling and down to the floor, both of which were bordered with oak wood. He had a king sized bed that stood against the wall, and had deep red covers over it with two simple white pillows. To the right the bed was a closed closet filled with cloths. About five feet away to the left of the closet was a sliding glass door, going out onto a parlor with a roof that blocked the sun which was directly above the manor. There was a bathroom directly at the left of the bed was a simple bathroom containing simple needs. Directly to the right of the door, were was a desk with a simple lamp that was off at the moment. Unlike his sister, he did no value his appearance as much, so things like brushes, combs or anything that involved grooming, was nonexistent in his room.

He closed the door behind them as he began to speak to Sade again, "Listen, fledgling, I am not my sister, so I will not be as nice as her. As a mentioned before, I will not continue to tolerate your behavior like she has been. I will move to punishing you on the slightest amount of negative behavior from you if I have to." Then he seemed to soften slightly as he went on, walking past her and sitting down in the chair at his desk, "I know that it must be hard for to accept your sudden change from being at the top of the world to suddenly becoming a low life slave, but you're going to have to accept it. We're trying to treat you nicely and make it so that being owned by us won't be a terrible experience for neither of you, however, that will change if you continue to treat us as if we're under you. You're no longer in charge of anyone but yourself, and from now on, I would recommend that you control yourself with more efficiency than you have since we first met." Then his face suddenly got a stern expression before he spoke with that same calm tone of his, "And while Jec isn't exactly my responsibility, you still are, and I will not tolerate you treating him, or anyone else, as if he is any lower than you. You two are both on the same ground, so act like it." Then he stared at her right in the eyes before going on, "I'm going to ask again, do I make myself clear or will you require some "encouragement" to listen when you need to?"

Jec frowned a bit as he stood there, looking over at her. Sade was like a disease to him and they only knew each other for about an hour or so. She just seemed to get worse and there just seemed to be no kind of treatment coming his way to help him out with the disease. He just simply let out a small sigh, knowing that this was just going to get harder for him.

The Syphalis felt a bit of joy in his chest when he heard that she would be willing to actually brush him if he liked. The thought of a brush going through his fur did sound good to him at the moment, and he began to think to himself about it, but the sudden sight of the butler and the sound of his voice was a little distracting, not to mention that his sudden appearance somewhat surprised him. When he called him "master" he was almost tempted to request that the man didn't call him that, but he couldn't bring himself to suddenly say anything, so he just simply waved with a nervous smile on his face. At least he was nice too.

Upon entering her room, Jec looked around in awe. He had never seen a place so...beautiful or luxurious before in his life. Even if he actually had, it was from the outside of a window. He was too busy looking around to even notice Roslyn for a bit until she suddenly apologized about all of the books on her bed. He couldn't help but let out a small chuckle as she never really pictured someone who ruled over him to ever apologize.

When he was suddenly invited to sit next to her on the bed, he found himself hesitating, standing there for about three seconds before he slowly made his way over to the bed before slowly turning around and sitting down next to her while listening to her request.

Now blushing again, he rubbed his neck softly before saying, "Er...Well, I can't tell you a whole lot because I don't remember a lot." Then he paused for a bit, looking down at his feet a bit, which were undoubtedly dirty, before he spoke, "I was mainly you average civilian. I went through life and had a family that I lived with until I was fifteen. I moved out early mainly because...well, my parents were slipping into debt, and because I didn't exactly want them to wind up like me right now, I decided to leave..." He let out a bit of a sigh before he went on, "It was a little hard to try and climb back up into being a commoner because I had to avoid being spotted by guards, underground wildlife at night, and getting a job wasn't exactly all that easy because being an orphan kind of made you an outcast. I eventually got hired by this ol- er, elderly guy who was nice enough to actually take me in and give me a job. I worked there for about three years. I did have a few bad run ins with costumers and I still needed home. I eventually got one, it wasn't the best, but it was something to keep me safe at night."

Then he seemed to become somewhat saddened before he started talking again, "I...I got my cut of any money that came in cut down because the old guy said he needed more for himself. I didn't understand at all because he went from being nice to being some lazy, greedy monster. I hardly got payed anymore and he was kind of harsh at me whenever I made a mistake. About two weeks before I lost my job, the guy had threatened to actually fire me and report me for authorities, so I started working as hard as I could, but that still didn't save me. I eventually lost my job because he apparently got a replacement for me, which his own ten year old rand daughter. My home only remained my home for about three more days because I was out on the street again, job hunting. I got so tired of moving around and hardly getting all that much food that I had to take a break, and that just got me caught."
