Deep breaths.
Heart pounding.
Suffocating air.
A blank white canvas wrapped around that just doesn't seem to end no matter how much she pushes it.
Luna felt nostalgic upon experiencing this feeling once again. But why was she feeling this once again?!
It doesn't make any sense...
"If I remember correctly the exit should be at the right side of mine." She mumbled while recalling from her past memories, and to her dismay the guess was right. The silk sheet around her did ended on the bed's right edge.
She squirmed on the monster sized bed making sure to not make any excessive movements and finally she got to inhale some fresh morning air, crisp from the essence of flowers blooming in the backyard.
Her foot landed on an expensive camel fur carpet dyed in jade green and she rubbed her sole to enjoy the peace while she still can. It was soul soothing, for sure.
The room was as lavish as always and why wouldn't it be? It was the emperor's room afterall...
He, the one who reigned the Stalwart Empire was the most notorious being ever written down in the history of mankind. From being insanely tyrannical, self-centred and arrogant man he was also infamously known for his bravery, strategic mind, majestic charm and lastly, the enormous amount of land and wealth he captured which none of the ancestors in his past bloodlines could ever achieve in their lifespan.
But despite given the chance to admire the exquisite taste of emperor's collection in this room, Luna was more focused on concerning over something else because even she knew all of these priceless room decor were nothing but bricks and stones to her life.
The time has rewinded again and she has returned back to the past, back from where it all started.
Her memories are almost erased, probably as a defence mechanism to keep her away from going absolutely insane, but a few trigger points are starting to make her regain those memories as she's looking at her surroundings with a strange nostalgic feeling.
"Everything feels like a Deja Vu." She gently strokes a huge china clay vase kept on a small wooden table as if something happened when she first came around here. She walks around ignoring the folks asleep on the bed and sees herself in the mirror which was kept near the window to admire one's beauty in natural sunlight.
The thin curtains were fluttering with the passage of wind and Luna could feel her wavy hairs being pushed back from the flow, making her radiant face more exposed in the image on silver framed full length mirror.
Her hair with the colour of night sky was flowing freely over her shoulder upto the thin waist. Her moon grey eyes were saved from the blinding sunrays as there was still some time left for the complete rise of the sun.
Astonished by her own beauty, her skinny white fingers caressed that pale spotless skin and cherry plump lips on her face which she had long forgotten ever existed before.
'Wait, I remember now. Sigh...I can't believe my expressions are the exact same from the past.
At that time I was so appalled that how could the healthier version of myself be so beautiful?... but very soon everything changed and I returned back to my disgusting self...
I don't know whether it is a curse or a blessing that my memory has been erased. But there's one thing for sure, that God has given me an aid to deal with this.
And that is, everything that I did in the past has been left with a trigger point in my brain space. In order to unlock those memories I'll need to find that trigger point first and push it to unlock them one by one. My first trigger point was seeing myself in the mirror.
Makes sense now that I see it for the second time.
But unfortunately, there's something more to this and that is lying right behind me.
Watching my every movement as I am exploring his room like a small child. The sleeping demon is awake.'
Luna looked back with narrowed eyes and noticed small movements occuring inside the white sheet.
It was time when everything begins.
She touched the orange fabric barely covering her skin with a frown and returned back to the bed where the rest of them were sleeping.
But as she slid herself in, she faced a naked back of a copper skinned girl. There were marks of nail scratches and teeth bites that had turned blue all over her torso. It was a painfull sight to watch.
'Monster.'
Luna winced from the misery and shut her eyes close as she had no choice but to endure the view in silence when suddenly a faint noise of bed creaking made her eyes popped open again.
She noticed a muscular arm was sliding over the woman's waistline until it reached the bottom. Because of the sheet covering them, she couldn't get to see his face clearly but the one thing of which she was sure of, was that it was the emperor's arms who were trying to provoke her for some reasons.
'He saw me when I was awake, what's he gonna do now?!...' a tide of tension raised within Luna's mind. She clenched her fist close to her chest and prayed to God.
The emperor's hand didn't stopped caressing the gorgeous curve of the female body, but Luna refrained herself from giving him any response as it'll intrigue him even more.
She couldn't even afford to turn around nor could she squeeze her eyes shut because who knows what this maniac might do to her.
All she could do was to watch his arm and wonder why was he doing this? What makes it so interested for him to do these?!
Have I succeeded in picking your interest? Fufu! Let me know in the comments and read more to find out what happens next.
(◍•ᴗ•◍)
He kept on playing with that woman's body even after she got awake. His touch was painful, that despite hearing the emperor mumbling in her ears to stop, her moaning would still escape and echo in the giant room.
The others were awake by this time but none of the girls had the courage to step out of this steamy white sheet and grasp some fresh air. They were all dead scared.
Even though Luna couldn't see the woman's face, she could assure that her moans were not of grief but rather of pleasure. Her delicate body twitched from every touch of his.
'And of course, why would it not be?'
The most handsome and powerful man was giving her the most attention among all the girls present on the bed, but little did she realised that she was just being used as a mockery substance.
'Being held in his arms for a longer time meant a privilege for poor prostitutes like us. The one would be entitled as his so-called "favourite" and she would boss around the other prostitutes.
Thankfully, I ran away back in my past right on the day one so I didn't had to face that pathetic conquest of survival, but thanks to 'her' I got to know this dark side when we were on our escape journey together. I wonder if she's on the other side of this bed...' Luna remembered her best friend she made in the past in this mansion.
'I am sure she must be so furious right now and must be badmouthing them with some extreme harsh words, sigh...' For a change, Luna got the distraction she needed as she smiled internally while trying to remember her friend's face but unfortunately she failed in doing so. The image was too blurry to even recognise, but the fact that atleast she remembered her presence was a huge relief to her heart. She felt more calm and composed despite the vulgar scenes being played right in front of her.
To make things more exciting this time, the emperor adjusted his position to cover the mouth of that woman in her arms. Once again, the faint creaking sound of bed brought Luna an alarming notice and she witnessed the swift movement of his hands tightly pulling the bottom wear of that woman.
The thin and smooth cloth was being stretched up so tightly between her thighs, that eventually it got torn into shreds right in front of Luna's eyes and she had to witness the immediate exposure of a very vulgar scene.
The tan of blush instantly struck on her face and she barely missed covering her mouth to gasp.
'How can someone be so cruel?!!!' Luna screamed internally, but that didn't made the emperor halt from what he was going to do next.
He brushed the tip of his fingers over the woman's hip and pulled over her one leg over him to get a better grip, or more like better view for Luna to witness.
'I want to run away from this place, but I know that'll be foolish of me to do so. They'll catch me and then the same will happen to me. I feel very sorry for that lady, but please forgive me. I am as helpless in this situation as much as you are.' Drops of tears fall from the corner of her eyes and moisten the surface below her head.
She watches him inserting his fingers inside that woman vigorously and hear those disgusting lustful sound craving for more pleasure.
"Ahh!! Please..be a bit more gentle, your majesty..yes, right there...ahh!!!"
It was immeasurably sickening and ghastly.
'That's enough! I can no longer tolerate this anymore!' she finally squeezed her eyes shut and sealed her ears with palms to completely isolate herself.
She could still feel their movement on bed which was getting more intense as each second passed by, but despite that she waited....and waited...
And waited until finally a bizzare realisation struck her mind. For some reason she found herself in more open space than before and the trapped air surrounding her was gone.
Through a small gap she took the courage to peek a little, only to get taken aback from the fact that the white sheet was gone and now everyone could see each other.
Not only the tanned girl was already enjoying herself by sitting on top of him, the rest had joined her as well. Some were at his foot while rest were caressing his head and arms, it was a pure harem!!!
Luna felt so out of place as all this time she has been behaving like a prudish child in front of the adults making out, but the thing which surprised her the most was that nobody was even bothered by her this different behaviour. They were so engaged in the activity that none of them were paying any attention to her.
'Ah. Right. I remember the reason...the conquest of taming the devil king is what their life depends upon.' She soon realised but didn't knew what to do now. She knew the path to escape but being somewhat aware of what happens in the future she decided to not to and remain here for a while to make a perfect plan.
And for that she needs to find that perfect mate with whom she escaped last time as well, her best friend.
Not wasting a breath, she carefully crawled around the emperor's legs to avoid any suspicions and get a better view so that she can spot her friend.
But the competition was very fierce than she expected it to be as a sudden push made her almost fall off the bed.
'Phew! Safe!' she reassured her throbbing heart and continued her mission by walking low around the bed edges, while making sure she's out of the demon's vision.
Some moaned, while some chuckled. Some shed their desires of admiration while some continued their task in silence. The variety was easy to notice from the way they looked at the emperor.
'Its sad to see how blinding love can be. And nobody except for me can tell this very well...' the stinging pain did arose a little in her heart but she ignored those fan girls knowing that this was not the time to sympathise for others.
Her steps finally halted as she happened to see a familiar body like hers clinging onto the emperor's left arm. She was so glad that for once she wanted to ignore everything and just hug her tightly from behind to feel her essence, but she didn't do anything and just watched her.
Things didn't end well in their previous life so it was natural for her to feel emotional at this moment. But she had to control them as it was too risky to express them here.
Meanwhile her friend was only playing with the emperor's palm and fingertips, which made it very clear how much disinterested she was.
'She really hasn't changed one bit. I bet she must be thinking of chopping those fingers... don't worry Stephanie, I'll make sure you never get to see him ever again." A pressed smile formed on her face as glimpses of past memories of them being together played in the back of her mind.
Stephanie was easy to recognise as there were only a few differences in their appearances. She had red crimson wavy hair just like her ferocious personality but had placid ocean green eyes like her heart. Unlike Luna she had sharp facial features which almost made her look like a clever woman but just more beautiful and alluring one.
'Sharp jawlines, pointy nose, catlined eyes and thin curvy red lips. Yep! She definitely does look like a humanoid fox.' Luna slowly approached her still trying to figure out what to do next, but after seeing her best friend up close, she surrendered the hesitation and decided to directly meet her.
"Hey!" She impatiently whispered as she slowly tapped on Steph's shoulder from excitement.
Naturally she was greeted by stunned eyes who were asking for her to stay away, but as if Luna would follow her orders, she decided to rather stay there only and join in the finger fidgeting act Stephanie was doing at the moment.
"What the-?! Hey! Do you wanna die or something? Get a hint already and go somewhere else!" She finally answered in an angry whisper, but Luna welcomed it with a sweet smile as she was very glad to hear her voice after such a long time.
"Hey! Why are you smiling like this?! Are you even listening to me?! I said go away creep!' This time her words sucessfully landed a knock on Luna's door and she replied back while shifting her hand immediately over to the emperor's belly instead.
"Nope! I won't." Luna said ignoring the fact that she called her a creep.
Being born and raised in a tough environment, Stephanie always had a vulgar tongue but after spending some time with each other, Luna came to discover that, that's just the way how she talks. Her real intentions are usually good and very kind hearted.
The conversation seemed over as Steph had turned over to other side. Luna did saw that coming thus she wanted to tease her some more, but they weren't here to play around.
They were currently on a job. A job of a prostitute.
Everyone was trying their best to keep the man satisfied since their life depended on it, quite literally.
'Prove your worth or else you'll be discarded.
Meaning, either you'll be distributed among soldiers and then torn to shreds or a single slice upon your neck will be enough to put a conclusion to your pathetic life.
That's the life of a Royal prostitute here.'
Luna didn't knew this rule in her past life but Steph once told her these on how this society works, while being on their journey.
Now that the memory was finally unlocked, Luna worriedly looked around at the surrounding woman and tried to copy them but it didn't felt she was doing it correctly.
'I am away from his vision so it should be fine even if I don't do anything, right?...
...No. The last time when I tried to run away while they all were asleep, he quickly caught me and send everyone out to take advantage of me... I don't wanna gain any unnecessary attention more than I already have.'
She pulled her act together and this time seriously tried to touch him more affectionately, or atleast pretended to be from outside because deep down she actually wanted cut his guts out open.
She forged her facial expressions and tried to blend in while desperately waiting when will all of this end.
The urge to run away was on peak in her mind.
