I would like to keep it if Ashia will allow me."</span>She tensed and let out a sigh.<span style="color: #ffcc99">"I know it's not your child and I'm just... a lowly pet, but I know you would protect it like you protect me. I feel so safe when I'm around you and knowing that you own me." </span>She touched her collar and smiled a little.<span style="color: #ffcc99"> "I know you didn't pick it out but I like wearing one, it makes me feel like I really belong to you."</span><br/><br/><span style="color: #666600">"I don't believe that you won't die, I don't believe that I won't die either... one of us will be gone and I don't trust them to not hurt us.
