Azvameth heard the hurried steps of the merchant before the whelp even caught up with him. Then the poor sack of shit was apologetic and made an offer that most would have jumped at, but Azvameth was not about to just allow his previous attempt at boldness to go unpunished.<br/><br/>“The price is what now?” he asked as if he had not caught it when the merchant practically shouted at him. Without hesitation and with the same enthusiasm the price was repeated back to him, which put such a smile on his lips. “Hmm…no, I don’t think that will do. See, once I put my money up and walked away that meant you lost all hope of being able to make any kind of offer to me. Now, I get to decide how this goes and all you get to do is smile and thank me for even gracing you with my presence. Understand?”<br/><br/>Though he waited little for him to answer instead he just plunged ahead, “I will now give you ten gold pieces and not a single penny more. You are going to take the money, thank me profusely and even offer to kiss my ass for me. Then I am going to politely decline, collar up my merchandise and be on my way. If I ever catch you in the market again with another human and you try to be all big balled bad ass, I will gut you. Do you understand me?”<br/><br/>All he waited for was a nod, and then he paid the poor bastard the ten gold, collared the disgusting human and headed back to his home. In silence they rode and he made no effort to change that, for the human was beneath him in every way and had been more of a hassle then truly worth the effort it took to purchase her. At this point he could only hope that she would not end up being a waste of money.<br/><br/>When they arrived back at his estate, he dismissed his Golem and brought the human into his home himself by a rough tug on her leash. Inside they were greeted by Alejandro who had heard his Master pull into the driveway and made sure to be there waiting when he entered.<br/><br/>“Take this and have it scrubbed for dinner, I don’t want its stench to ruin my appetite. Once it is in the care of the other slaves meet me in my bedroom so that you can help me undress and bathe as well. I have to wash the aroma that now permeates my body from just being stuck in the same vehicle as it,” his jacket was tossed to Alejandro along with the leash, the girl now in his charge for the moment.<br/><br/>“Yes, Master,” he bowed until Azvameth was clear of the room, then he straightened and looked at the newest addition to their household. A slight blush came to his cheeks before he gave her leash a small tug, “Come on. I’ll take you where you will be cleaned and prepared for the Master.”
