Body Chains

01

"Hey? Are you .... okay?" She gave another try at waking him up but he didn't make any move when he just groaned. "Hmm. I guess, I'll just spend the weekend normally. I'll still be here if he wakes up."

And yet after she left the room and got herself busy in the kitchen with some cooking, he woke up but felt way dizzy to get up instantly.

"W-Where am I?" His sight stretched from corner to corner of the unknown room where he was at, and saw the jug and a glass filled with water over the side table.

His whole body ached so badly and he panted in slight pain ruling his body. His arms got folded over his chest as he held himself right there on bed, scared of the surroundings slightly. Curious eyes were searching their ways out from the place and he really wanted to but he also needed some time to heal himself.

He breathed out tiredly and made a stand near the bed. He then closed his eyes and soon then a purple aura of fire started to emerge from his toned muscles, knuckles, shoulders yet whole body but it didn't last long enough as it faded so early.

"I'm weak to even heal myself." He sighed in defeat and dropped himself over the edge of the bed. He shook his head and held it following a grunt. "I just got rid of that mad doctor and ended up here. And now, I'm so weak that I can't even heal myself."

"Oh! You're awake. That's great. You want something?" The girl entered the room with a big charming smile, gaining full attention of the male who surprisingly lifted his head towards the anonymous female.

"Uh. No. I-I'm fine." He replied hesitantly.

"Are you sure you don't need anything? Maybe some water or something?" She asked and confirmed even for the second time. "You woke up after two days."

"No. I don't drink water. I'm allergic to that. It sheds my skin." He added dryly while having a completely foreign feeling right now.

"You got to be kidding me. Right?" The girl scoffed mockingly towards his words.

"What makes you think that I'm joking?" He got a little annoyed.

"Water is the most important thing we have here on earth, furrball."

He surely frowned towards that name that she has given to him. He decided to go with it.

"I need something else. I'm thirsty." He lightly pulled onto that metal chain that went around his enormously striking neck.

"You should probably change. Your clothes are wrecked."

"Hmm. Yeah." He removed his upper shirt and revealed a mesmerizing view of himself, adorned in body chains.

"Wow! Nice chains you've got there on yourself." She got fascinated by them the minute her eyes landed on him. A magnefique beauty in embellishing metal around his muscular popping hotness. "Why don't you remove them too? Or else, they will get stuck in your new clothes."

She went past him while jabbering her words, truly unknown towards the thing that he was staring her in complete bafflement.

"Can you remove your blood vessels from yourself?" Deadly heavy and mad vocals itched her senses and she turned with an arch of her brow.

"What? No! Of course not. Why are you saying that?"

"That's because these body chains are no ordinary ones. They are my blood vessels! They are attached with my body."

"Wh-What..??"

He added his words and she went frozen with her eyes popping out to extending limits. A blunder was going through her mind suddenly.

"Incredible." Suddenly her eyes went through his chains and she saw how they were really attached and connected with his manly body. "Wh-What the hell are you ta-talking about?"

"I'm not kidding about this." He locked his serious eyes with her. "These body chains are really my veins. I-I've got a rare substance running in them. It's a metallic form of blood."

"Yo-You're freaking me out right now."

"No! Don't be afraid of me. I-I won't do anything to you. I promise! I just need a place to stay for a while." He seriously pleaded with his eyes. "I just need some time to heal. I owe you!! You've saved my life."

"You-You won't do anything to me. R-Right?" By the time she got to know that he wasn't a normal guy, her everything was shaking.

"I won't. I just need a place to stay. Please. And .... I don't know anybody else than you here." He held out his hand and she just stared it.

"Fine, furrball." She took it with a heavy sigh. "By the way. I'm Lilly."

"It's really nice to meet you, Lilly. Thank you."
