《Hunger for affection》Act II - Palace | Arrival
Advertisement
"It will be that here, I can eat well?"
The young Rin thought in silence and concern, who, despite arriving at her fourth home, no longer cared about her treatment, or her masters, much less the place where he worked, else if she could satisfy the hunger that had plagued her for years at her old job.
This is since she already knew that in the end, it would go badly for her, so when being guided through the luxurious palace by a woman, who could be her boss, she did not express any emotion about this and simply followed her in silence and grace, as a result of the hateful label that was forcibly embedded in it.
The woman, for her part, was analyzing the future employee, while she explained a little the rules of the place while guiding her to her residence, and it's in this analysis where she concluded with disappointment that it would have been good material if it weren't for their race.
But these thoughts mattered little to Rin, who only thought about eating and sleeping, and with those wishes in mind, time passed quickly for her, arriving together with the woman at a residence, secluded in a corner of this small town called palace, in which as a matter of course for her she was presented to the few present in the room where she was going to be living.
"You know how this is, she is Rin, she is part of the new servant that the palace is buying, and she will be her companion in residence, and for now she will be working in the laundry," the woman explained to the young servant.
But to all of this, Rin wasn't paying attention, until they mentioned the laundry, which made her laugh in her mind.

[Laundry, it would be funny if I were to sweep again]
Apart from the laundry, everything started relatively the same as their old houses, an elegant place, a uniform, people who hate to see her, and untouchable masters.
[How long will I be here? Will it's a year or two?]
[Or how am I going to leave? Maybe they'll kick me out for being ugly as always"] Rin laugh thinking that.
She gracefully gambled and thought Rin in her mind, about her so familiar situation as she changed, silently ignoring the insults of her classmates before leaving for her new job.
Following directions, from some servant on her way, Rin was able to get to the laundry, where she found what she expected, lots of clothes, and several servants.
As always, she was received with hatred and disgust by the others except for a servant, who would be her companion because she shared part of her stigma, being part of another race, in her case, being from the tribe of wolves.
"Hello, my name Yue Jin, I'm glad to see a bestial companion, even if it's from another tribe." Yue greeted Rin with kindness.
This kindness and this person surprised Rin and filled her with joy to finally find someone like her.
"Rin Shin, nice to meet you," She replied simply, a product of the customs instilled in her old job.

Femira spent her life stealing scraps and looting corpses just to survive another day. When she stumbles upon the chance to steal another's identity, she thinks she's found the ticket to an easy life. But she soon finds the glamour of the runewielder's hall hides as much peril as the bloodslick streets. Can she steal the greatest prize of all, the knowledge to reshape the earth, and make it out alive? Abandoned by his abusive father at the far reaches of the world, Daegan may not have the powers of his ancestors but he refuses to die in banishment. Will he make it back home in time to prevent a brewing war? ------------------- This is a gritty drama-driven, rambling tale that presents mysteries early on that the characters work to unravel throughout the story. It swings between action, drama, and sometimes some darker comedy. Warning: A whole lot of profanity, alcohol, drugs, implied violence, actual violence and mega-violence—the kind that involves knives sliding into eye sockets and brains spilling onto floors—the usual stuff, scenes of intimacy, mercenaries, pirates, lots of moral ambiguity, including a wizard that likes to make tea with the heat sucked from his victim's bodies and a heap of world-ending monsters ready to eat people. _______________ Expectations: Updates every Monday and Thursday. Chapters will be between 2,000 and 5,000 words. I'm Irish and write in "Irish English" which is to say that I don't use much of the letter "z"
