The large silhouette came to light soon enough. Sure enough, it was the strange lion herself and Alexandre recoiled into the shadows further. His eyes focused on the sight of the corpse dangling from her jaws, taunting him from afar. A feline too. He couldn’t help but fear that was his own fate as she grew closer and lowered the icicle nearby. Water seeped onto the floor with ease, grazing the foreigner’s own paw pads as it did so. He swallowed. Alexandre shook in his place and his stomach turned. Pointed claws scratched at the stone beneath him, trying to avoid the urge to shoot through the new hole she had made, but he held himself. The kitten would only make his punishment worse.

The squelch of flesh being torn open and bones cracking among them echoed within the small cave, causing the sensitive pirate to press his ears into his skull. His weary gaze turned away. Alexandre couldn’t bare the sight, even after seeing Corrupttimelines’ unintentional kill. Any sight of flesh and bone made him feel queasy, making this situation no different from the last... except that he couldn’t run. Alexandre’s trembles reached their peak as Sojourn finished, her paw beckoning for him to come closer. The flesh that hung there called his name, begging to spare any further punishment, yet he pulled away and whipped his head around to the back of the cave.

A soft whisper reverberated from the back of the cell quietly. “I...” He paused. “I c-can’t eat that.” His heart thumped violently, anxiety signaling his fear. While his denial was brave, it could come with a consequence and Alexandre wasn’t looking forward to it. At least sweet release would come soon...
