A splash of copper in the sea of greyscale. Perhaps it is why she liked this part of the territory to much, she could basically disappear. She felt at home, her coat matching almost perfectly with the dark soil and white grass that littered the ground. She lay beneath one of the forest's most handsome trees, twisted and gnarled like a braid, it's lowhanging branches providing shade, where she rested and contemplated.
It was a rare occurance to see Five by herself. Damn near a feat on her behalf. Though she was mateless, this didn't mean she didn't mate. Far from it. It seemed as if she was always sighted in the borderlands now adays with some fawning boy toy, whose heart she would so easily crush later.
Really, it was just a rare occurance that she was actually within her packlands. She came to the imperial forest to mostly be alone, and contemplate as she was doing now, and when she wasn't doing that, she was trying desperately to woo the Lord. So far she was painfully unsuccessful with her endeavors, and doubt began to creep coldly into her heart. It was the only time she knew exactly how her boy toys felt, the only time she was ever sorry to them, the only time she cared.
Her face held in a painful grimance as she stared off into space, alone with her thoughts.

The black shadows of the forest stirred, awakened by the presence of another. A familiar. The air seemed to stiffen, quivering like a taunt muscle, before a soft breeze blew the strain from the wood. Quiet paw prints sounded amid the twisted trunks of trees and a soft growl tore though the peaceful silence.
"Five,"the Lord's voice boomed like some otherworldly noise, everywhere and nowhere all at once. Godly. His form appeared before her in the shape of a giant black wolf, thick tail twitching this way and that, raised high above his back. He lifted his ears and stilled meters away from her, like a dark mirage against the stark whiteness of the forest and its foliage.
She seemed off to him, not as attentive as he'd like her. She'd gone through bouts like these before, and he did not understand them. He loathed when she was like this. The Lord lifted his lips to bear his teeth, but did not growl or snarl in warning. She'd smarten up herself. Five was good. She needed not a warning. "You left for too long." He was displeased. He needed her at his side, to do his bidding, to worship him. He did not like his minions disappearing where he would have to search for them.
"Come to me,"his voice came out as a rough growl, and he stepped away, lifting his maw and tail higher, demanding her respect,"Tell me why you've gone."

The copper mask became more then the marking on her face when she turned to meet her Alpha and Lord's displeased face. Her face suddenly looked stoic, as if she had never experenced pain in her entire life. Her darkly outlined eyes made her face severe without being threatening. Her ears pinned back submissivly, however, she did not bother to tuck her tail between her legs. After all, she was not an omega, at least she was never treated as one. If the Lord ever started treating her like one, she would assume omega stance, but never before then.
"I'm sorry my Lord, it was foolish of me to leave you for so long." She bowed her head ever so slightly. At his dominate stace, her eyes grew slightly worried. Maybe it really was foolish to leave for so long. She really should have known better. Lord knew what she did when she was away, she had never kept that secret from him, as she had not kept secret the fact that she was intrested in him. Now however didn't seem a good time to try her wiles on him, or to tell him what he probably knew he would hear. Maybe if he had been in a better mood, but, now really wasn't the time. She comtemplated rolling on her back with her tail between her legs, but that seemed a little extreme for the situation, even if he was the Lord. He after all wasn't in a murderous rage. At least, not yet. She knew she had to be careful with what she said.
She walked over to him, looking at his chest or at his muzzle as she answered him, looking into his eyes would probably only displease him more. She would not do that until the Lord told her to, or until she was sure it was safe to do so. "I'm afraid, my Lord, that where I have been will probably displease you, but I cannot lie to you. I was out...doing what I usually do when I'm out." She lowered her head as she came closer to her Alpha, for whatever end.

The Lord said nothing for a long moment that seemed to stretch on forever in silence, not a twig stirred nor a bird whistled a disquiet tune to fill the empty space. Finally, he lowered his head minutely in a semblance of a nod, dropping his tail a fraction of an inch. His whole body seemed to slip into a more relaxed stance, and he stepped forward to greet her, touching his hot nose to her brow.
The serenity did not last long.
A vicious growl tore from his throat and he rose up and lunged at her, wrapping his jaws around her neck in a tight, relentless grip. He did not choke, nor break skin or bone, but the pain was there, and it hurt in some ungodly way that was not logical for the situation. His voice was clear, although neither lips nor tongue moved, a disembodied speech that tore into Five's ears like a banshee's wail. Rough and ragged as a snarl.
"Doing what you do?!" the Lord's teeth bit deeper into her fur,"Ever since those others came you've become most displeasing to me." He tore his mouth away and swung backward with a might leap, lip curled as if in disgust. "Do you not desire your Lord?" he mocked, padded back toward her and circling her like some ravenous beast,"Why make yourself a useless, defiled creature, then? Do you not wish your Lord to desire you?" He stepped closer, nuzzling her face with his thick maw, letting his tongue wet her chops. He pulled back and nipped her hard, engulfing her maw in his mouth and digging ivory canines into the flesh.
He let her go before he could do any true harm, dancing away a second time. Turning his back to her, he started down the wooded path, head lowered in anger,"You will be punished for your sins later. Come with me now, I've grown lonely in your absence. Tell me of these new comers you so disgustingly desire the company of."

Ok, maybe she wasn't exactly an Omega, but she certainly wasn't stupid either. The moment his maw incircled her throat she threw herself at the ground with a sickening thud, tail tucked in to her stomack and her legs curlled up into her body covering her vital organs as best she could. She had made a big boo boo in being gone for so long for such a stupid reason. He had never shown this type of agressiveness with her when she had left for a day or two. But this time she had been gone longer. Foolish, she would learn her lesson quick. She would never do it again. At least...being gone that long. She doubted she could change her nature...
Her heart fluttered like a paniced bird in a very small cage as he growled, yelled and showed his discust to her. It was thumping so loud she was sure he could hear it. It fluttered just a little more when he licked her muzzle, then more when he returned with a snap on her jaws. She did nothing, and said nothing until she was sure he was done showing his dislike and dominance. Even when he was but a few paces away she did not move from her position on her back, just to make sure he was really letting her get up now.
Only when he called her to come did she dare to get up. She eased herself back onto her shakey legs, standing slowly, her ears pinned dangerously back against her skull to show her submissivness, as well as a dangerously lowered head as she approached him. She lowered herself even more as she reached his side, hesitating a moment before licking his muzzle. There was nothing seductive in the way she licked his muzzle, only a show of submissiveness. "My appology knows no bounds, my Lord. You know I am forever loyal to you and only you. I keep no secrets from you. And you know I more then desire you my Lord." She padded away from him slightly letting her appology sink in a little, before taking a gulp and answering him about the others. "There are more and more newcomers as days pass, my Lord...They are all vulnerable and unknowning...we may see some new members yet." She kept it fairly clean, with the Lord this upset, she was apperhencive about giving him any intimate details.

[boo boo? X3]
"And your loyalty will be rewarded in time, my servant,"replied the Lord, raising his head as she loped to his side,"But no action will be left without a consequence. You know this." It was not a question, and truly the Lord did not care if she did. He knew, and as he decided to punish or reward, his minions would learn. Five should know by now, but he would make no fuss of turning those words into a lesson.
"Your desires, on the other hand,"and his black lips curled in distaste at the words,"Are not welcome. You have not proven yourself to me, with your infidelity. Your disloyalty to your own wants...wants for me." He growled low, muscles growing tense, but he did not attack her. Nor did he even bother to turn his head to look at her.
"We may see new comers? Nay, Five. I will have my minions,"he stopped, lifting his head a little and squinting his eyes to stare blankly at the dove wing foliage, rustling by imaginary breeze,"I feel my numbers are too few. You will be sent to the Unclaimed lands...tell other's of me,"he finally turned his gaze to her, teeth bared but silent of threat,"Use yourself to seduce them to me. I will not have them grouping together to form packs larger than my own. Is this clear, my servant?"
"But not yet,"he looked away again, and continued his trek through the wood,"I have been alone for much too long. I shall desire your company still."

She did know, she knew what would befall her if she continued the way she was with her sinful nature. Her virtue 'Justice' made it easy for her to see that it would not be an unfair punishment, if only it wasn't so easy to fall into the temptation of her sinful nature. It was so hard not to look into the eyes of another wolf, and know that she could have them on their 'knees' begging for her. To have the power to reward or punish their hearts. It is what the Lord did, but with souls. So hard to neglect that power, that is so easy to attain. She said nothing, the Lord knew of her weekness, she did not need to remind him further.
Somehow the words, 'I'd give it up for you', just didn't seem like it would cut it, not to mention it's the oldest one in the books, and one of the corniest. It didn't mean that it wasn't true however, but again, she found herself keeping this bit of information to herself. It would start to sound like excuses, and that would only annoy him. She grew a little braver now that the attack seemed to stop, she stood unwavering, head low, but ears percked and listening intently to what her Lord had to say, taking whatever verbal punishment he was willing to dish out.
"I did not mean to say you wouldn't have minions, my Lord. I merely ment that the one's I've seen thusfar are not worthy of your presence, and that we will soon see some that are. I ment no offence." she bowed her head slightly. "Crystal clear. I will do my best to please you, m'Lord." she said in responce to her new 'job'.
When he asked for her to stay, her heart lept a little, and she gladly strode beside him. "I will gladly be at your side m'Lord until you grow tired of my presence..."

The Lord's ears flicked back during her moment of silence. He knew he was not being ignored, but his patience was being tested. He wanted his responses prompt, hurried, quick. Do your thinking whilst you speak! That's what he wanted. He cared naught of his minion's thoughts anyway. Merely desired to hear them fawn and cower at his presence. The mere thought of that made his lips curl in a savage smile. All inklings of frustration at Five's hindrance vanished at his own mental gloating. He did not allow his visage to be viewed as gleeful for too long, and once again the stoic expressionless face common to him had returned.
"Ah, yes,"he nodded his head, avoiding her gaze,"I have no doubts that they're worthless, mangy creatures with no use to them at all,"he snarled, nape rising,"They will be slaughtered if they think themselves worthy of my domain." His claws dug into the black dirt. Anger again. Ah, such a common, comfortable emotion. He loved it. Anger was easy, simple, understandable.
Love, Depression, Mirth, Generosity, Vengeance. All terribly confusing, muddled emotions. Joy was understandable. The sweet and simple enjoyment of causing pain was understandable. But that only came post anger. Anger, by far, was the Lord's favorite feeling.
"You will send whom you believe to be worthy of my dominion-ship to my lands. I will judge them here."
He waited silently for her to finish, extracting his nails from the dirt to more easily tread along the chrome paths. More words to anger him. His ears pressed back against his skull and he wheeled on her, snapping his jaws in her face,"And I will grow tired of your presence if you do not entertain me!" His heavy breathing shallowed and he fell back into an easy step, eyes narrowed, lips loosened to reveal teeth with every panting breath.
"Tell me,"he paused, and a smile grew on his maw for a second time,"Tell me what you've done with these New Comers. Tell me the tale of your seduction."

[Bipolar characters are always the most fun XD]
She tried her best to read the Lord as they spoke and walked, but his mask was far superior to hers, and she could not gain any of his mental processes. She was only able to read that he was amused by something for a fraction of a second (maybe something she said) before she could almost feel vibrations of rage wafting of him, as he snarled and claws dug into the ground with ease. She said nothing, fearing that he would turn his anger on her if she did, and just nodding at appropriate times.
But alas, she didn't have to wait long until he finally did turn his anger on her. She pulled her head away wide eyed as he lunged for her maw, then fearing that he would be angry at her for pulling away she lowered her head in submissive behavior. For now, submissive behavior seemed the key, though she hated it. She had never had to be this submissive with him before, in fact, sometimes she felt as if she was damn near bold with him and he had not harmed her. It seemed his lonliness had made his mood less then favorible. She wondered breifly if it was not so much HER company that he had wanted, but just any. It was disappointing, it made her hopeful to know he was looking around for her, for more then just the purpose of finding where his property had gone off to. But she supposed, this was the Lord's way. She was weak for him, and it made her think of possiblities that would just never happen, weither he one day would return her passions or not.
Her eyes softened unknowningly as he panted. Even with such anger boiling at the brim, she could find herself desiring the feel of that breath upon her neck. She turned away silently, but remembering how his chest and lower jaw moved subtly with each breath, and how slightly parted lips revealed his tongue and teeth. The only wolf that could render her useless without thinking. She cursed to herself.
Red flushed into her cheeks, when he demanded to know intimate details of her little 'adventures'. She could not recall a time when the Lord, had ever asked her for such a thing. He had always wanted to know things like, where had she gone, why had she gone, and who she had seen or been with, but never intimate details. Did she want the Lord to know exactly what she had been doing? Surely he would punish her for keeping secrets, which she never really did with the Lord, but would whatever punishment she got be worse then telling him? Maybe.
She grew bold then, it was as if she shifted modes. She knew that if she didn't tell him, she would recieve probably the same punishment that she would recieve later on for telling him. It made her want to give him a little taste. His smile was encouraging. "Most that I have run into have been weak m'lord, giving in rather quickly to their sinful desires." her smile grew a dangerous and alluring aura as she uttered the word 'desire', as if it was some deep dark secret that she was letting him know about for the first time. Her eyes sparkled like chocolate and gold fire as she stared into his ebony black chest, raising her gaze to meet his eyes, black surrounding her eyes deliciously and only making them stand out more. "However, I do have one story, which may titalate you." She bravely let her tail stroke his back leg lightly before quickly removing the touch, as if his body was to hot for her to touch him for very long. Scope it out, did he want a story, or did he want a little more then just a story. She was not thinking sex, the Lord would certainly not be that easy, more along the lines of touch...

Her boldness surprised the Lord. He lifted his head, brows furrowed and eyes narrowed down at her as he stared the length of his muzzle to watch her advancements. His lip curled, but he said nothing. Their eyes connected, and the Lord lifted his head even higher, letting his tail raise sweepingly over his back. He did not growl, but the muscles in his legs tensed, his grip on the forest floor tightened. How dare she look into his eyes!
The Lord stood very still as Five's tail raked the back of his hind leg. The lightest of brushes, the merest of touches, so very slight. He bared his teeth in warning to her, emitting the most subtle of snarls. How dare she act upon her desires for Him. He was not a mere brute to be seduced. He was The Lord. He would not stand for her advancements. But he did not attack her, he let her continue. She was quick, tentative, it seemed. Or he hoped. He enjoyed the skittish behavior of his Minions toward him. (Toward others was a different matter. If they were His, they were more worthy for this second life than any other useless mongrel roaming the lands of Venial.)
"Do you?" his voice was low, rough, deep, emotionless,"Did I not request you tell me of it? You are avoiding my demand!" He lowered his head to hers, nose pressed against her nose, his hot breath steaming from his mouth to her mouth,"Do not waste my time with useless words and teasing. Tell me,"he withdrew, trotted away to seat himself below the low hanging branches of a twisted tree. He watched her, waited.
"Degrade yourself,"he continued, a sickly humored chortle lacing his words,"Tell me what it is you do, what you're too ashamed to speak of to your Lord. Tell me how you use yourself to play with these pathetic creatures. I want to know."
He looked away from her, smirking,"I want to know everything. And you will tell me, won't you, Five? You want to tell me." That was not a question either. The Lord was not good with asking things. He demanded. He forced. The Lord was given what he wanted, or he took it forcefully, in ways that wolves cannot imagine. This, this was not only some sick curiosity to learn of Five's doings while she was away; but a need, a need to know her, to own her, to keep her from having anything of herself that she had not given to Him as well.
"And perhaps, when more minions have joined me, I will ask you to show me your...talents."

She had hoped that her small form of bravery would have please her Lord in some way, but quite the contrary, it seemed it had discusted him to his well known emotion of anger. She had tested the waters, and they had left scalding burns. Again foolish, she grew more and more fustrated with her decisions. She wanted desperately to be his equal, to rule at his side, to be his, and he hers. The thought made her want to laugh, instead she transfered that energy into her best appologetic smile, he after all had not struck her, mearly put her in her place with cutting words. She would not make excuses, but she would appologize as best she could. She would never ever be his equal, it was just never ment to be. All she could hope to be was one of his most trusted Minions, to maybe be one of his more dominate minions. The thought twisted her gut slightly. When it came to charm, most would agree she had the 'wolfs' share, but when it came to brute strength....she was definately on the shallow end of the gene pool...
Her smile had not worked, and she found herself nose to nose with the Lord, his breath carressing hers. She was afraid, it was evident in her eyes, but she found a sick pleasure from it. It was somehow intimate, and it made the paniced bird caged within her to flutter wildly. She watched almost breathless as he turned and laid down under one of the twisted trees, but pulled herself together when he finally returned his gaze to her. Her state would have made the Lord angry. No more testing waters. Now was the time to play it safe.
She stood there continuing to be silent as he assulted her with orders. She did want to tell him everything, wanted to do more then just kiss and tell. And in a non-sexual way she wanted to let him know. Just as he wanted no secrets between them, she wanted as best she could to keep no secrets. Some things where harder to tell then others, but she eventually would. Did he really think so lowly of her? To take power when it was so easy to take? Was that so lowly? No time for questions of self-doubt, if she did not start quick, he would grow angry again, and she didn't really feel like having more scars.
She looked at the V shaped scar upon her wrist, feeling slightly uncomfortible telling tales of sexual adventures while she stood. It seemed to disturb the mood, though there really was none. She did not question him about asking for her to show her talents. It would truely be a reward for sure, but with her self doubt, came doubt in general. She would do what he asked, even if he didn't ask her. It pleasured her to pleasure him. That was enough....at least for a while...
She sauntered over carefully, making sure to give a wide birth between her and him, then laid down, careful to cross her unscarred wrist over her other. It seemed like more of a story to tell while touching another, however, she had recieved a definate no on that, and she wasn't about to demand a yes. "I will tell you, my Lord. You only need but ask...or demand, and I will faithfully answer." She knew she had already said that several times, but it just didn't seem right to just spill into the story with no sort of introduction. "In the past day or so, I went out hunting. It was getting dark, and most of our usual prey had gone back to their burrows or other such abode. It was a while before I came across a stray hare, it looked as if it was lost or something," she waved her paw absently to show she was digressing, then quickly replaced the paw over the scar, as it was painfully obvious when she sat or laid down. "I had crouched down ready to spring where seemingly out of no where another wolf had lept from behind a tree, snapping up the young rabbit quiet easily. I was...pretty annoyed, at the fact that I both failed to observe that he had been there, and the fact that he stolen my dinner. It was fairly obvious when I stood, that he was not at all to pleased with my presence. One of the newcomers, and now that I could smell him, I remembered smelling his scent around. It matched his looks, he was well built, strong, and if he was not so dumb to the ways of Venial, i would have thought him good enough for your presence. He proved himself later to be weak of mind. After I had my way with him, he had gone to profess something equivelent to love." She rolled her eyes, smirking slightly "I would not have tagged him as an instant mater, but apperently he was. So weak to think that Lust is love, my lord." She couldn't help but laugh a small cruel laugh. "I got up, took the rabbit, and told him, I would rather eat that rabbit and choke on one of it's bones then be his mate for however long we are stuck here." There, she had degraded herself, just as he had asked. She rather he demand her for the intimate details if he really wanted them, then to leave the Lord for so long without speaking.

The Lord fought down the urge to snort at her 'tale'. Hardly worth the breath it took to say. That was not what the Lord had wanted. "It must be difficult,"he said through a deep sneer that wrinkled the thick fur and skin around his muzzle and cheeks,"To degrade yourself to your Lord." He stood and padded toward her, a stiff and jaunty gait, making each pawstep create a deep imprint on the black soil. His pace was quick and he leapt at his final step, so his torso was pressed to Five's back and each foreleg stood on either side of her chest and left shoulder. He craned his neck and bit her ear, hard, releasing it just as quickly and soothing the sting with a mocking lick.
"Good,"he said,"You should not want to reveal things that could be later used against you. But I am your Lord, and I do not take kindly to my minions, my most trusted servant, skirting around issues." He growled and stepped off of her,"If you do not wish to talk with me, so be it!" Although, this was not the issue at all, and the Lord knew it. She simply did not want to face His wrath once secrets were revealed. He would let her this one escape, but not without punishment.
"Since you refuse to tell me your secrets, bring me someone who will. Find me someone willing to spill their thoughts when I ask,"he turned away, trotting back to the path. The trees seemed to reach out toward him as he passed, grasping, fawning, seeking attention. He smirked a little at their actions.
Such an odd place, this Venial.
The Lord craned his neck to look at Five,"Be glad I'm not punishing you further for your insolence. Hunting and feelings! Is that what you think I wished to hear? Leave me! Leave my land! And do not return until you've found me some proper company!" Although he did not wish to be left alone any longer. Five had abandoned him once to frolic with the neophytes. She'd been gone too long. He'd...longed for her company. Her attention. She fawned much more sufficiently than any other wolf he'd crossed paths with.
He would have to make sure she did her task promptly.
He turned full circle to face her,"If you return before I crave company again,"he paused, thinking...searching for some perfect little bribe that she would die for, and that he could stand,"I will humor you one request." If she chose wisely. The Lord could surely decline her something he did not wish to do.
His voice grew loud, booming, carrying far deeper and longer than any mortal voice truly should,"But if you displease me, I will give you the punishment you so justly deserve for your recent actions!"
Once again, he turned from her,"Now go! Leave me!"
