The accusation was so unjust that it made her speechless. So not only was she unlucky to transmigrate to this strange world but she was wearing the body of a horny, gluttonous lazy woman!
Could it get any more shameful? Just how horny was this woman if everyone knew about it?
It took her three beats, to pull herself back together. Other accusations, she would reluctantly admit, because they were likely to be traits of the old Sienna. But the new one, had not sexually harassed anyone. All she had done was look around and touch some ears.
"I have no idea what you are talking about." She blinked in confusion. "And, handsome, who are you?"
"Did you or did not harass an underage beast man?" He growled.
A pop-up window suddenly flashed before her eyes.
[Pet training system activated. Does the host wish to bind SSS tier fox?
YES/NO]
Sienna was even more confused, but not because of the pop up window. She was not new to the transmigration and system genre. In fact it was a relief to discover that she had a cheat.
"Yes." She threw her hand in the air with excitement.
The system assumed she had consented.
[Pet: Elias Veythar: SSS tier Fox Beast man.
Bond Level: 0
Compatibility: 0% {Extremely volatile.}
Shared skills: 0]
Elias Veythar could not help wondering if his most hated wife had finally lost her mind. "Are you actually admitting to it?" He nodded. "Very good. Things will be very easy now. If you sign the divorce agreement and give up all your parental custody, I will make sure that this issue is resolved and you can leave with dignity." He roamed his eyes over her, curling his lips in distaste. "If you have any left, that is."
Two people entered the room as soon as his words dried up. One was a woman with furry tiger ears and the other, a man with bunny ears. The woman looked cold, her hair was thick and brown. The man was smaller, softer in appearance.
Bunny beast man stepped forward and he handed her a light blue paper. The words divorce decree were very clear, written in white. At the bottom was a circular seal Sienna could not identify. It looked like a clock.
Her eyes perused the document: By the authority in the Beast man Celestial Accord of Sentient Bonds, this decree hereby dissolves the union between:
Name: Lord Elias Veythar, of the Clawspire Vanguard
and
Name: Lady Sienna Miller of the Lost-born city.
Bond Type: Legal pact, no soul thread or Beast kin pact.
Date of Union:
"Wait." She stopped, gasping loudly. Her wide blue eyes looked up to the fox beast man that was impatiently waiting for her signature. "You are Elias Veythar, the SSS tier fox....?" She asked with uncertainty.
The tiger beast man scoffed. "Sienna, what kind of games are you playing now? Did you get amnesia from sleeping for eighteen hours after eating a table full of meat?"
Sienna ignored tiger woman because there was something much more urgent. The system had bound a pet to her and it had the same name as the man she was married to. Fingers crossed, this a mix-up.
Elias muttered some words, sharing his frustration. Then he said in a deep voice, "Of course I am Elias Veythar, who else would I be?" He frowned, looking at her with suspicion. "Sienna, don't tell me that you want to reject the divorce decree by reason of mental illness?"
Sienna wilted, groaning sadly. "I am so screwed." she whispered.
The pop up screen showed up again.
[Welcome package arrived including: Toy bundle. Pet food rations and a free glowing collar with biometric tracking.]
Sienna maoned again, a sorrowful sound that one would make when they are caught out in the rain for an entire night and shivering.
"I am dreaming." She whispered to herself. "If I close my eyes, I will open them and find myself..."
Before she could finish her words, Elias growled, "You can keep delaying this divorce with every tactic you can think of but it is going to happen, even if I have to drag you to Beast court. And I am warning you, if you touch another servant inappropriately, I will end your life rather than allow you to bring more shame to the Veythar name."
Sienna did not get up when the three where leaving. She did not rise when the door slid shut with a hiss. She did not move when an older servant who had painted three moles on his face to appear ugly came to retrieve the untouched food tray.
Day turned to night, and she remained in one place, as if she had been glued to the bed.
Meanwhile, servants gossiped about her in the house as they went about their duties.
"She has not ordered for food in six hours, this is not normal."
"She must be hiding because she is ashamed of what she did to Kroton. How could she touch his ears?"
"Last time, she hid in a bush outside and waited for the Lord to return home before jumping on him and demanding to share his bed. People were watching."
"Did you say jump? Have you seen her size? I will give you all my meat if she can jump even once."
"She refused to divorce again, how will Lord Elias ever get rid of that mountain sized thing? She is a stain on his image I tell you."
"If she can be Lady Veythar, so can I. I qualify because I am a fox. She is a beast-less thing that only knows how to eat, scream at us and drool at all the men that live here. Now, she doesn't even consider age."
When it was just shy of 8 p.m, Sienna abandoned the shock and pity party. It was time to accept her new reality and deal with it. She needed to find out who she was, who her family was and how she became Lord Elias's wife.
"You, fox robot thing." She waved her hand to to the robotic assistant. "Do you know me and my history?"
A hologram appeared and a voice came from its mouth. "You are Sienna Veythar, formerly Miller. You are twenty six years old and a mother of two kits. Your hobbies are...."
"Skip that, tell me about my family."
"Your family background is humble."
She grimaced. "So, poor."
"Yes." It admitted. "You are from Lost-born city, the place where most non beast men who are born without the traits of beast men live."
It presented a hologram of the city.
"Because of your beauty, you participated in a competition and you were selected at the age of twenty as one of the few non beast men to work for Starcross media in the entertainment department."
Sienna pinched her cheeks. "What beauty?"
The fox robot showed her an image of her youthful face. Before the fleshy cheeks set in, she had a small face, high brows, wide eyes, a sharp nose and perky lips.
Sienna could not believe the difference between the woman in the picture and the woman she was now. What exactly had happened for her to multiply her size by ten? People did not just go from that to this without a reason.
"You once conquered hunger and hardship to get a place in Starcross. You made money and earned some fame. The old Sienna Miller was admired, radiant, and cunning. She secured her marriage through unconventional means by locking herself in the closet of Lord Elias's hotel room during one of his heats. A consummation happened, she got pregnant and transformed into Lady Veythar."
Sienna did not even need to hear the rest of the story from a machine because she could already write the script for herself. The woman whose body she was wearing had probably been unloved by her husband, hated by her in-laws, laughed at by servants and the whole world.
It was a story as old as time. She gained weight because she over ate and she over ate because she was depressed!
That, or she was poisoned by her husband to make way for his many admirers.
