The forest clearing was silent now, save for the occasional rustle of leaves as the wind carried the stench of blood. Sinith stood a few paces away from Veyron, her eyes filled with anger. "I'm not going anywhere with you, demon," she shouts, her voice raw and filled with hatred. "I'd rather die than follow a filthy creature like you."
Veyron let out a low, mocking chuckle. "Oh, sweetheart, I think we both know you've already tried that," he said, eyeing the fresh bruises and cuts on her exposed skin. "And look where it got you."
Sinith's grip tightened on her sword, her knuckles turning red. "You're disgusting," she hissed. "I don't need your help, and I'd rather face the Abyssal Hand alone than go anywhere with a pervy demon."
"Now, now," Veyron purred, taking a step closer. "Let's not be hasty. I promise it'll be... fun." His eyes roved over her body shamelessly, lingering on the curvey ass, her hips and the heave of her chest beneath her torn clothing. "I can think of a few ways to pass the time together, if you catch my drift."
"Bastard!" Sinith snapped, her cheeks flushing with rage and disgust. She swung her sword in a blind arc, but Veyron dodged easily, stepping to the side with a laugh.
"Oh, come now," he taunted. "Isn't it cute how you're still pretending you have a choice?" Without waiting for a response, he stepped forward and struck her on the back of the neck with the edge of his hand.
Sinith's eyes widened in shock before she crumpled to the ground, unconscious. Veyron stood over her, his grin widening. "There we go. Much quieter."
He crouched down beside her, his fingers tracing along the curve of her cheek. "You know," he whispered to her unconscious form, "I could have so much fun with you right now." His eyes darkened with lust as he let his hand wander lower, but just as he was about to touch her waterpark, the familiar chime of the system interrupted him.
[System Alert: Taming Quest Updated! Host Reminder: Tames must not be forced. The other party must be willing. ♥]
Veyron froze, his expression turning from one of lecherous glee to annoyance. "What the hell do you mean, 'must not be forced'?" he growled under his breath, glaring at the floating screen.
[System Alert: Taming requires consent for full rewards. Forcing the target will lead to penalties. ♥]
"Are you kidding me?" Veyron muttered, clearly frustrated. "I'm a demon, not some goody-two-shoes hero! I do things my way."
[System Notice: Achievement Unlocked: "Rapist Bastard." No rewards. Shame on you.]
Veyron's jaw clenched, his fists tightening as he glared at the mocking text. "You've got to be fucking kidding me," he hissed through gritted teeth. But there was nothing he could do. The system wasn't going to budge.
With a deep, annoyed sigh, Veyron leaned down and carefully picked up Sinith's limp body, cradling her in his arms. "Fine," he muttered, begrudgingly accepting the system's restrictions. "I'll play along... for now."
But his eyes glinted with a dangerous light as he began walking deeper into the forest, Sinith's unconscious form held tightly against his chest. "Once you wake up, fox-girl," he whispered into her ear, "we'll have a little chat about cooperation. I'll get what I want... one way or another."
As he trudged through the dark woods, the system's notification lingered in the corner of his vision, mocking him silently. For once, Veyron was at a loss for words, his fury simmering just beneath the surface.
