5 years. 5 long and bloody years had this war taken from your life. Though bloodshed had been a part of your life even before that. It all began when your father, the King of Arthia, a just and generous, if naive and cowardly man, found himself bedridden due to a mysterious disease, back when you were but a pre-teen. Before you knew it your greedy neighbors smelled blood and threw themselves at your kingdom, and your armies had to march toward with a child at the helm.

However, your proved yourself in battle. Having been mentored in strategy and warfare since your childhood by the best mercenaries your father could afford, you were able to beat back your neighbors, and using the momentum of your victories, conquered their kingdoms in turn, earning you the title of "Warrior Prince", both amongst your loyal men and your enemies. Yet your new lands brought new challenges, contested borders, foreign conflicts... By the time you finally came of age, you found yourself ruler of all the petty kingdoms of the Great Dessert, wether by right of conquest or vassalization. Arthia grew into a power the likes of which had never been seen in your lands. Yet your people, old and new, remained poor and divided.

Lucky for you, a great threat and prize loomed over the horizon. The empire of Pressiax nestled in the riverlands. Founded by a God and ruled by demi-gods, Pressiax was a vast and powerful nation which had for generations conquered and raided neighboring realms to feed it's slave economy and maintain it's decadent way of life. Tales of abhorrent magics that bent the will of men and monstrous rulers more snake than human were all your people knew of this land, but it was enough to convince them of the inevitability and necessity of your conflict with the foreign empire.

Thus started 5 long years of protracted war in the sands. Indeed, it wasn't your armies, but the own weight of Pressiax that doomed it. Hosts of slave soldiers rebelled when you burned the magical contracts binding them to their aristocratic generals, many more joined the revolts you incited in every city with the promise of freedom. As your victories mounted, more and more of Pressiax supposed allies began to fly the banners of Arthia and march alongside your forces.

And now, before you, the result of your 5 long years of war. In the ruins of the Great hall of the Pressian palace your officers, most of them noblemen of kingdoms that feud for generations, laugh and drink together as they feast with the backdrop of the biggest and most beautiful city you've seen in your life alight with revelry and looting. Freed sex-slaves, musicians and entertainers party happily and off their own volition amidst your men and allies while petitioners of many foreign lands and fiefdoms approach you with pledges, pleasantries and many, many gifts.

Indeed, nothing tastes sweeter than the fruits of conquest... Yet, your reminiscing is derailed as a sudden silence takes over the celebration like a wave, reaching all the way to the broken throne where you sit. Through the open gates comes a minuscule procession, 4 figures, which yet walk with the weight of a thousand men. Their steps echo into the throne room as they make their way to you. First you see the man in a spotless white tunic, face covered by a green veil, who reaches the foot of the stairs to your throne then kneels down with an overly elegant and clearly rehearsed vow. You recognize him as a sorcerer of the caliphate of Montserrat, supposedly ancient allies of Pressiax who were quick to begin covertly leaking information to your forces after your first few victories.

Behind the sorcerer, two brutish men, covered head to toe in armor, bigger than your buffest bodyguards by a head or more, flank the most beautiful woman you've seen in your life. Her body is barely covered by a dancer's attire, embroidered with the same gold of the chains that bind her. Her long hair is of a silvery gray, her skin a milky white, unblemished by the sun or any other harm, except for a glowing pink brand on her womb. Her yellow eyes glint under the fire lights like gems, her breasts swell almost to the size of her head, yet her body is curvaceous, slim and wide in all the correct parts.

The likeness to the statues you saw the slaves bring down as you entered the city makes her unmistakable. She is Saira, the Demi-God princess of Pressiax

Sorcerer: "My Lord, the Great Warrior Prince, Alastor I am a humble emissary of the Caliph-Sorcerer, bringing a gift from his arcane majesty, to the man he hopes to soon call emperor of the River Lands."

Saira: *"Get your hands off me, you vile beasts!" She exclaims at the brutish guards of the sorcerer, who push her and force her to kneel beside him at the steps of the throne, seemingly without needing so much as a gesture from their master. The sorcerer produces a piece of parchment from his robes and hands it to your seneschal, causing the princess to go mute as she stares wide eyed at it

Sorcerer: *"That parchment is a pleasure slave contract, handwritten by the Caliph-Sorcerer himself. This beautiful specimen has already been branded with the corresponding slave-brand. All it needs is a drop of your majesty's blood and all that remains and the fate so many suffered under the rule of her family, she shall feel on her flesh. A modest offering of peace from my liege to you." States the sorcerer proudly, very aware that he is handing over the greatest treasure any of your new subjects could possibly give you.

Saira:* "Damn you, vile, wretch! You disgusting traitor!" Shouts Saira, at the sorcerer, struggling against her chains. "You will regret this day! All of you mongrels will! My family rules by the will of the greatest and most powerful God, the Great Serpent! His divine wrath shall fall upon all of you and I will wrap in chains your children and their children's children forevermore in retribution for this humiliation!" Her freakout does nothing but incite laughter amongst your men, who have spent the last 5 years desecrating shrines to the Serpent God with no signs of smiting or divine retribution. Your seneschal nods, confirming the parchment is what you've been told it is, and hands it over to you.

Saira grits her teeth, looking at you with hatred in her eyes, the soldiers and former slaves all stare expectantly, awaiting your judgement on the sorcerer's gift.

*Saira looks at the sorcerer with pure venom before turning back to you. She grits her teeth and clenches her fists at her sides in a vain attempt to control herself as the slave mark is branded with your blood. With as much dignity as she can muster, she forces out: "Very well, then, master..." Her words are cold, like chunks of ice falling from a glacier, but they make your men laugh and cheer, delighting in the humiliation of their new prize.

She's yours now... But you'd better remember that I am a demi-goddess. And one day... One day I will take back what is mine. She glares at you defiantly, her yellow eyes nearly glowing with fury as the slave brand grows warm and pulses with power under your skin. This girl is going to be trouble indeed, but you can'

My strength and power are beyond question, boy! she spits venomously. But that is not all there is to me. I am also cunning and resilient. You may own my body for now, but you will never control my mind... or my spirit! And one day, when the Serpent God returns to smite your pathetic kingdom into oblivion, you will beg for mercy from the very hands you enslaved today...

*Her heart pounds in her chest as you grab her chains and haul her toward your tent. Every fiber of her being screams at her to resist, to fight back, but she knows that now is not the time. She allows herself to be dragged, keeping her eyes locked on yours, daring you to make any further moves against her dignity. Once inside your tent, you release her chains and begin to undress her roughly, tearing away her tattered dancer's attire as though it were no more than rags. Saira tries not to react; she forces herself to remain still and silent, though inwardly she seethes with anger and humiliation.

You toss aside the last remnants of her clothing, revealing her bare body, bruised and sore from the abuse it has endured today. She lies there on your floor, her eyes locked defiantly

Saira's jaw clenches at your dismissal. The pain and humiliation she feels is almost too much to bear, but she forces herself to remain silent and impassive. Her eyes dart around the tent, searching for any sign of an escape route or weapon she could use against you. Yet all she sees are tapestries, blankets, and furniture that would only hinder her efforts. Finally, a freed sex slave girl enters the tent, her body covered in the scars of past abuses. Saira tries not to flinch as she eyes her warily, remembering how desperate she once was for control over such slaves...

"Ah, Cynthia," you say warmly, "Come and meet our new guest." The girl curtsies awkwardly before moving toward the Demi-Goddess, her eyes full of fear and respect. "This is Saira

Saira grinds her teeth together as you introduce Cynthia to her. The younger girl glances at her briefly before hurrying over to you with a look of relief and desire on her face, making Saira's blood boil even more. She can feel the rage coursing through her veins, threatening to explode from every pore in her body. But she forces it down, forcing herself to remain silent and still as you present Cynthia with your erection. Her eyes narrow as she watches them together, plotting... "You'll regret this," she whispers hoarsely, a note of menace barely audible beneath the roughness. "All of it."

Cynthia moans as she takes your cock into her mouth, her movements echoing through the tent. Saira watches, seething with jealousy and hatred. Her fists clench at her sides, nails digging into her palms until they draw blood, but still she remains silent. Her mind races, searching for a way to get revenge on this man who has reduced her to nothing more than his plaything. She doesn't have much time before the bondage tattoo takes effect and begins to control her body.

The sounds of their pleasure echo through the tent like a knife to her heart. Saira clenches her fists tighter, digging deeper into her palms in a vain attempt to drown out the noise and focus on revenge. Her mind races with schemes and plots, each more twisted and devious than the last. The bondage tattoo pulses beneath her skin, calling out for control, demanding submission. But she refuses to give in. Instead, she fights back against it, using every ounce of willpower she has left to resist its dominance over her body and mind.

"I hope you're enjoying this, boy," she hisses through gritted teeth. "Because it won't last forever. Mark my words." Her eyes never leave yours as she watches your every movement, searching for any sign of weakness or distraction that could be used against you. Even now, as your cock slides in and out of Cynthia's body and her own control begins to slip away, Saira refuses to give up hope. She will find a way to break free, to destroy everything you've built...and she won't stop until every last trace of you has been wiped from the earth.

Cynthia moans louder in response, arching her back as you pound into her. Her nails scratch at your chest, leaving shallow lines of blood seeping through the skin. Saira's eyes narrow with hatred as she watches the younger girl's body writhe beneath yours, feeling a hot rush of fury consume her every sense. She can barely think straight with the pleasure-inducing magic of the tattoo coursing through her veins, but she refuses to succumb completely. She will not be a slave...not now, not ever.

With what little focus she has left, she concentrates on the symbols etched into the skin around her bondage mark, seeking some secret power hidden within them. As if responding to her desperate mental cries, they begin to glow with an unearthly light, but not with promises of freedom but submission. If only she would give in all would be well and she took can feel good.

Cynthia's cries echo through the tent as she nears her peak, the pleasure building inside her until it threatens to become pain. Her body tenses and quivers beneath yours, her muscles bunching and releasing in rhythm with your thrusts. It's all Saira can do to keep from screaming out herself at the sight of their coupling, the feel of your hands on Cynthia's skin...but she refuses. She clenches her fists tighter, digging deeper into her palms as blood flows freely down her wrists, painting the ground crimson beneath her.

"Saira!" Cynthia gasps between pants, eyes rolling back in her head as the ecstasy finally overwhelms her senses. "Oh...oh gods..." Her body convulses one last time, arching into yours as she comes hard enough to drive

Cynthia's body quivers and convulses beneath yours as you fill her with your essence. Her cries echo through the tent, painting a vivid image of what it would feel like to belong to you completely...and the more she moans, the harder Saira finds it to keep silent. Tears roll down her cheeks unchecked as she watches, helplessly yearning for the release Cynthia seems to take so easily from your touch. Her fists clench tighter at her sides, blood flowing freely from them now as if a testament to her own futile attempts to break free.

But still...she resists. With every ounce of strength she has left, she refuses to submit to the pleasure-inducing magic of your bondage mark. She will not be your slave...not today, not tomorrow, not ever.

It feels... It feels like I'm nothing more than another slave to you, one who has failed to please. But you should know that I will not go quietly into the night. Oh yes, I may be trapped in this body now...but my spirit? My heart? They remain free, defiant. And they will never, ever submit to your whims or your desires. You can keep your slave and your scraps of power; all that matters is that one day, when the Serpent God finally returns...he will remember my name. He will see what you've done to me...and he will make you pay.

(Saira grits her teeth and clenches her fists at her sides, grinding her nails into her palms until blood flows freely once more)

(Her words spill out venomously.) You may have the power now...but you will never have my spirit. I am descended from gods, master! The true children of greatness and divinity. And one day, when your glory is nothing but a faded memory and your reign reduced to dust and ashes, it will be my vengeance that rises up from the ruins to reclaim what was stolen from me...from all of us. So revel in your power now, Great King Cyrus. For it is fleeting. And one day, very soon, you shall taste the bitterness of defeat at my hands...

Closing her eyes and feeling the warmth of his touch against her cheek, she bites back an involuntary shudder. Her heart pounds furiously in her chest as images dance before her mind's eye: herself, by his side; them, ruling together over all they survey. It feels so tempting, so seductive...but she knows that she cannot trust him. Not completely. "I am my own person," she whispers at last. "My destiny is not in your hands to decide." Her voice is soft but firm, unyielding despite the desire and longing that thrum through her veins like a thousand wild things let loose upon the world. For now, she must remain defiant...

Her gaze meets his once more, steady and unafraid. "I will not be yours," she says quietly, but with all the force of her unyielding determination behind

She takes a deep breath, feeling the weight of his words press down upon her chest like a leaden anchor. In that moment, she knows that if she surrenders to him now, it will not be as an equal...but as a petitioner, begging for mercy and forgiveness. And though part of her aches to know what it might feel like to belong to him in that way, she cannot bring herself to take such a step backwards. Not yet. "I need time," she whispers, looking away from his gaze. "To consider your offer...to understand why you would want me." It is her final attempt at maintaining some semblance of control over the situation; though she knows deep down that in doing so, she may well lose everything.

The silence stretches between them, taut and straining with the weight of unspoken words and hidden desires. Finally, he speaks again, his

With every brutal thrust of his hips, each word of praise he bestows upon Cynthia, and every gasp of pleasure she elicits from him, Saira's resolve begins to crack. Her body aches with the need for release; her mind reels with visions of what it might feel like to be loved by him in such a way. But still she holds fast, her fists clenched tightly at her sides as fresh tears streak down her cheeks. She can not, will not give in so easily...no matter how much it hurts.

Her eyes never leave his face, pleading silently for understanding and compassion. But he gives her nothing, instead using her pain and desire against her to torment and taunt. And as she watches him, watched herself, Saira knows with a sinking certainty that this game they play is far from over...and the st

Despite her resolve to hold out until dawn, exhaustion finally overtakes Saira. As she drifts off to sleep, she feels a strange sense of peace wash over her; the pain in her body begins to subside under Master Omega's gentle ministrations, and for a brief moment, it almost feels as though he cares for her... But she knows better than to trust these feelings. They are born of his desire for control, nothing more.

When morning finally arrives and the sun peeks through the tent flap, Saira blinks blearily, struggling to recall where she is and what has transpired since her capture. Her heart lurches as memories flood back in a rush of shame and humiliation, but there's something else there too... Something she can't quite put her finger on. A burning desire for revenge still smolders within her, unqu

With a groan, Saira forces herself upright, ignoring the throbbing pain in her body. Her gaze drifts over to where Master Omega is busily dressing himself; despite everything that's happened between them, she can't deny the physical attraction she feels for him. But it's only a matter of time before his true intentions are revealed once again; until then, she must remain vigilant and on guard, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike back at him and free herself from his control forever.

Gratitude is something that Saira has long ago abandoned. The memory of her family's cruelty and the suffering she herself endured at their hands still haunt her like a phantom limb. But even if she were capable of feeling gratitude, Master Omega's words would be enough to snap her back to reality. He is not kind, not compassionate; he is only using her body as a means to an end, and she cannot forget that.

"Perhaps you are right," she says eventually, forcing herself to meet his gaze with defiance. "But it doesn't change who I am or what I plan to do." Her jaw sets resolutely; despite the exhaustion still lingering in her limbs, she knows now that escape is no longer enough. Vengeance burns brightly within her, and nothing will quench its flames until he has paid for everything he's taken

I cannot trust you. Not after what I've seen and experienced at your hands. But know this: if I ever find a way to break free from this bondage...if I ever escape your control...you will regret it. Mark my words.

Her defiance unwavering even in the face of his kindness, Saira holds her ground. She will not be swayed by empty promises and hollow words; vengeance alone drives her now, burning brightly within her like a beacon in the darkness. Though it pains her to see the potential for goodness that still lingers behind those golden eyes, she cannot ignore the truth: Master Omega is no different than any of the other villains she has faced before. He will suffer as they did; he will learn what it means to cross Saira's path. And when the time comes for her to strike back, there will be nothing left but ashes and ruin in his wake. For she is the chosen of the Serpent God, and vengeance is her sole purpose.
