Wild Beauty
⊱━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⊰ ✧ ⊱━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⊰
Hawthorn squirmed in mild discomfort.
This…THING on her felt awfully ticklish as black silken ribbons and lovingly crocheted lace coated her tawny pelt.
Her hooves and legs were unused to being clothed beyond the rare times she had to dress for the winter season. It was so suffocating!
She could understand clothing her bosom, but why also her legs and torso? It was asinine! It would all come off eventually and only make for more work.
Although...
Hawthorn glanced from her plush bed to the large body-length mirror she used primarily for locating wounds and sighed.
It was attractive. It highlighted her supple hips and thighs, and brought out the colour of her pelt and eyes.
A month prior, Hawthorn had literally found a gold mine. She found gold with ease, though could always be relied upon to find rubies without even trying.
It was a strange instinct, she just...knew. Even further prior, Hawthorn had saved and befriended a travelling merchant - an equine with unusually emerald
green eyes. It was as if he knew she was a unique creature, for the moment he saw her, he was awestruck.
He had demanded to become her partner in trade. Every fortnight they met at the borderline between The Wildlands and the world beyond - a world Hawthorn was far behind.
He wore odd apparel, from a time beyond Hawthorn’s knowledge, and one day he presented the doe with this...thing. He called it lingerie.
It felt graceful to say. Hawthorn was anything but graceful. She was abrasive and jagged, a shattered glass pane in a stained window.
Thorn frowned and sighed. She’d promised to try it, despite giving him a pointed frown upon his suggestion.
She’d raised an eyebrow and both of his large hands had lifted defensively when he demanded, “you are a woman!
...Yes, you’re The Huntress but you are also a woman...women where I am from adore this...so give it a try!”
Hawthorn’s cheeks puffed up as she rose and stared in the mirror. She felt guilty, gawking at herself in this ‘finery’.
She couldn’t help but admit that it suited her. Perhaps she would wear this more often…
Wild though she may be, she was a wild beauty.
