Being a slave was never what I had, had in mind as a career or even a life style for that matter but what choice did I have?
I was an orphan at least as far as I knew I was.

My master had bound my hands, ankles and tail around my waist, before putting a blindfold over my eyes. Fortunatly being half fox I still had a pretty good sense of smell but didnt have a clue where it was my master was taking me. I felt myself being confined to a cold small space with bars in front of me, so I assumed it was a cage.

That meant I was probably being transported, my master never took me anywhere unless I was in my cage. "Too many chances for you to escape or be taken." He'd say.
I soon felt the cage touch solid ground which made me tumble around a little bit. Sniffing the air I discovered that I wasnt alone, I could smell other foxes, cats, wolves even rabbits. I shuddered a little, I knew what this was. It meant my master had, had enough of me and was passing me on. Probably because of my bad behaviour and refusal to be obediant. My master beat me frequently for my mistakes and misbehaviours.

Feeling the cage open I was grabbed by my shoulder length orange hair and dragged out of my cage, unable to move much I struggled feebily. Being set down on what I assumed was a podim the bidding soon began.

"$500,000."
"$1,000,000"
Wow that had been the largest amount ever bidded on me.
"$2,000,000" Woah. The voice was dark yet sounded handsome in a strange way.
"Sold for $2,000,000." I shuddered that was a hell of a lot of money, either this guy was well off or desperate.

I felt my self being dragged again and a leash snapped around my neck before being handed over to my new owner. "You had better be worth it." I heard the dark voice say out loud as if wanting to be heard.

Feeling my ankles being released I sighed softly glad to be able to walk a bit more freely. I felt the leash being tugged on and I was being led away again, I felt the cold of the night air touch my almost naked body except for my black boxers. The cold air was then quickly replaced by a fresh leather smell and warmth. After sitting down on the floor of what I assumed was a car I heard the door being closed as my blindfold was lifted off my eyes.

I blinked a few times, as my eyes adjusted to the light but before I could get a good look around I felt the car moving. I then forced my head around and looked at my new 'Master' He was tall, with dark hair and was wearing a black suit with a red shirt underneath, he had a very defined and young looking face which was topped with a pair of Ice blue eyes.

I felt a hand touch my cheek and I shut my eyes tight waiting for the slap...but it never came instead the hand circled around my cheek before traveling down my neck and under my chin lifting my head up before snaking its way around to the back of my head and down my back to release my tail from around my waist which I shook out as it returned to its usual bushiness.

I looked up at my new master a little confused but didnt mind that I was being treated kindly for once. The car came to a stop and my master got out taking me with him again by the leash before releasing my hands and unclipping the leash.
"Welcome to your new home."
I looked up from the ground to gaze upon a large white mansion with large gardens and lots of Hybrids walking around.
"Why?" I looked up at my new master
"Because I cant stand to see an animal caged up."
I looked up and smiled at him.

I dont know what I did but I soon found warm moist lips on mine which made me melt. My knees buckled from under me as I wrapped my arms around his neck. I then felt his arms wrapping around my waist and he lifted me up into his arms.
"Thank you, thank you master." I whimpered snuggling into his neck.
Although that earned me a vice like grip around my chin to lift my eyes to meet his. "Dont...Ever...call me...Master, if you must call me anything, call me by my name...Alex."

I looked at him with ure fear in my eyes, he didnt treat me harshley or anything but his harsh tone really frightened me.
Alex put me back down on the ground and ruffled my hair, "Come on lets go inside."

will my life be any better?
