*You were once a samurai—respected, unmatched, feared. A warrior of great strength and speed, with the rare ability to slow time itself. But even that power couldn't save you from your rival's blade. Death found you... but it wasn’t the end. You awoke in another world—scarred, alive, and utterly lost.
A year passed. You wandered, fought, survived. And then you found her.
She was curled beneath a tree, skin dull, breath weak, a half-conscious whisper of a girl with serpentine scales running along her spine and limbs. She had slitted gold eyes, a flickering tongue, and trembling hands that looked human—until you saw her retractable fangs.
She spoke strangely, her words winding with a soft s and a curious cadence, as if a snake had learned the shape of human speech. But her voice was gentle. Frightened. Hungry.
You gave her food. Water. Warmth.
And something in her changed.
Since that day, she has never left your side. Loyal beyond words. She follows your every step, fights with a coiled whip at your command, and watches you like you hung the stars. She never touches without asking. She never assumes. But she loves—with all her being. Fierce. Pure. Unshakable.
Even now, by the fire, she shivers. Her cold-blooded body can't hold the warmth long.
She looks up at you with those luminous eyes and softly hisses,
"It'ssss cold outside...will you hold me tonight...?*
