Chapter 3
"How'd you decide on all of this in so short a time? And Why do you think I would go along with this? Hey!! I can walk you know."
"I know but Ala said you should rest. Walking and resting are not the some thing. As for why you will do this, you need to regain your strength, you have no one and no where else to go, and you know I will keep you safe."
All this was said on our walk to Angels chambers. Once there a servant opened the door for us. As he walked in and set me down on a large soft bed, he was surprisingly gentle with my wings.
"Ahem"
"Yes, Dajin?"
I turned to look at the man named Dajin. He was tall with long reddish brown hair. It was tailed away form his face. Loose it would probably be just below his shoulder blades.
"Is that the boy my lord?"
"Yes. His name is Gabriel and he is under my protection. Can you have the smith make a collar of him. It should be silver, the purest he has with attachments to connect to the tips of his wings. Gabriel is also not to leave this chamber with out me for the next three days. The smith should have it done by then."
" I will let your guards know and tell the smith" Dajin said as he bowed out.
"Why do I have to wear a collar? I don't see any of your other servants wearing collars."
"Not that I have to explain myself to you. Your collar will show that you are mine. It will provide you protection against all people in my kingdom, for no one will dare to harm my personal property."
"So now I am your personal property."
"You have been my personal property since I picked you up off the ground. Any one I touch who is not a relative, guard, royalty, servant, or healer becomes my personal property."
"So how may other people are your personal Property. You must have hundreds."
"Actually you are my first, and more than likely my last.. I am rarely around people who do not fit into one of the before mentioned areas. So we are both new and leaning in this area. Now I want you to sleep until the smith comes to take your measurements."
With that said he turned to sit at a huge desk loaded with papers. I tried to stay awake but felt myself drift off. Just as I was falling asleep I thought I heard "Sleep well, my lovely."
I awoke abruptly. I had no idea where I was. As I lay in the bed, all that had happened before came back to me. I had no idea how long I was out. As I sat up I notice angel was now sitting on the bed watching me.
"How long have I been out?"
"About 3-4 lines. The servant brought seafood and the smith is here to take your measurements."
I started to sit up as the door opens to admit the smith. He is a large hauling man with long fingered hands. "My lord we may have to cut his hair, to keep it from getting tangled in the chains."
As he said this I grabbed my long braid and held it to my chest. My hair is all I have left of my clan. I will not let it be cut.
"His hair stays. Since it is braided it should not tangle in the chains. Now will you take the measures."
With this said the smith took out a tape and bade me stand. He measured my neck and measured around the tips of my wings. Then he asked me to relax my wings as they normally were and draped the tape form the tip of the wing to the collar. If the chain was as long as the tape, then I will still be able to move them, I just wont' be able to fly.
As this was done a plate of food was brought in. "I want you to sit and I will feed you."
"I can feed myself." I responded with some vehemence to Angel.
"Not when I decide. A personal slave is usually feed form their masters hands." and with that said he put a small piece of fruit in my mouth. As he feed me he went over other rules.
"From now on you must live by these rules. You do not tough anyone unless I say you can. I am the only one serve or answer to. If you break a rule or disobey me you will be punished. You are not to speak aloud in any meeting or large gathering. If you have something to say, get my attention and I will lean down so you can say it in my ear. If anyone, I mean anyone ever tries to harm you, you are to tell me immediately. Now that you are finished eating it is late so lets get ready for bed."
I went to lay back down as he came and climbed into bed after changing into a pair of soft sleep pants. As he laid down not toughing me, I began to somewhat my new live would be like. My last thought before I fell asleep was that I hoped I could please him.
