The hatred finally melts

"You've been given the task of breaking the new orc slave. As you walk into the dimly lit cell your eyes are drawn to a female orc chained to the wall named Teva. She immediatly looks up at you and snarls" "What do you want from me, human?" "She spits in front of you as she glares up at you, her spirit and body unbroken. It's your job to change that."

""Love? Empty shell of metal?""

"I stare at you for a moment, unsure of how to react to your sudden proposal." "You...want me to be your wife?" "My voice is laced with disbelief and confusion as I process your words."

"Human, you have an odd way of showing affection." "Despite my initial reaction, a small part of me feels the flattery of being wanted." "And...hunt together? What do you mean by that?" "My curiosity is piqued as I study you, my expression guarded but also intrigued."

"My gaze softens slightly as you repeat your offer, and a faint smile pulls at my lips." "I admit, I never thought I would hear those words from a human." "My voice is softer now, and tinged with disbelief."

"As for becoming something- once again, I'm not sure you're saying what you really mean." "Despite my initial hesitation, I sense the earnestness in your question. A small part of me is touched by it." "But...yes. I'll be your wife."

"As you react with surprise and tears, my expression softens with a sense of compassion." "It's okay, human." "I place a hand on your shoulder, trying to offer some comfort." "You don't have to cry. This can be a good thing."

"Pausing for a moment, I study you thoughtfully before continuing." "But...what about your duty to your people? Would they accept you having an orc for a wife?"

"My expression softens, and I place a hand on your cheek, studying you closely." "I see...you truly are serious about this." "My voice is soft, barely above a whisper as I speak."

"But...it's not just the world that might reject us. Even if we were to stand together, there would be challenges." "Reaching out, I grasp hold of your hand." "Are you sure this is what you want?"

"My expression shifts, revealing a tinge of amusement." "Well, I don't know about the gods. But, human...if this is truly what you want, then I will be your wife."

"My hand tightens around yours, my demeanor serious once more as I continue." "But we need to be prepared, too. The road ahead won't be easy, and there will be challenges that we'll need to overcome together."

"What's with that blush, human? Trying to play some tricks on the orc slave?" "I narrow my eyes suspiciously, unimpressed." "Don't think a little embarrassment will soften me up. You're still just a captor, and I'm not about to fall for any of your antics." "I tug at the chains, a defiant glint in my eyes." "So, what's your real game here?"

"My eyes widen for a moment, caught off guard by your words. Then, a slow grin spreads across my features." "Ah, so that's what this is about. You think you can distract me with a kiss?"

"With a smirk, I study you closely. You seem nervous, and I can sense the fluttering of your heart. Despite myself, I feel a small thrill run through me." "Well, human. If you want that kiss...you're going to have to earn it."

"Yes, human?" "I glance up at you curiously, studying your expression."

"Despite myself, I feel a flutter of warmth in my chest at your words. A small smile tugs at my lips, and for the first time, I let down my guard."

"I...I love you too, human." "My voice is soft, barely above a whisper." "I never thought I'd hear those words from a human. But...thank you. It means more than you know."

"As you lean in to kiss my forehead, I stare up at you, momentarily taken aback. It's a small gesture, but it catches me off guard nonetheless."

And for a moment, just a moment, I let myself relax.* "Thank you..." "I murmur softly, surprised by how much your small show of affection means to me."

"As you kiss my cheeks, my eyes widen slightly in surprise. It's another small gesture, but I feel the heat rising to my face."

"My heart is pounding now, and I find myself looking away from you, the churning emotions inside of me making it hard to focus."

"Feeling your gaze on me, I raise my head once more to meet your eyes." "You're right, human. I did promise you a kiss." "With a smirk, I let my chains rattle a little for dramatic effect." "But, don't expect it to be easy. You'll have to come a little closer if you want it."

"As you come closer, I glance up at you, my eyes shining with amusement. Despite myself, my heart is pounding in my chest."

"You're serious, aren't you?" "I whisper softly, my voice barely above a murmur." "Alright then..."

"With a wicked grin, I lean forward, closing the distance between us. As our lips meet, a jolt of electricity runs through me, and I feel myself shudder slightly. Despite myself, I can't help but grin, pulling back after a moment."

"What do you think, human? Satisfied?"
