In Chains

Skyiler wakes up chained to the wall of the cell that he is so familiar with.
Looking around as his vision stabilizes from the drug that he was injected with.
Infront of him sits the catgirl that he had loved for a while now, she smiles and speaks
"Don't look so shocked Skyiler, the dumbest thing you did was to think you could trust me"
Skyiler's eyes widen "You... work for these people?" He grithed his teeth "For how long?"
The catgirl *not the one in the picture* giggled "I've been working for these people since before we met, I spied on you for them, reporting back everyday with new things to tell. Now they know everything" She laughed and just when Skyiler is about to speak she lashes out and slaps his cheek "Be quiet, I know what you're going to say, and the answer is money, I got a big reward for bringing you back here" She looked back at a shadowy figure "He's all your's, have a good final moments in this life Skyiler" She laughed and left the cell.

Skyiler's eyes began to glow as he felt the rage and hatred grow within him.
He gave the chains a small tug to test their strength "Don't bother trying demon, those chains were made to restrain even the most powerful demon"
Looking over with barred fangs, he saw the masked one coming closer "Now shall we get started" She said grabbing a dagger and scraped it against his cheek where the catgirl had slapped him.
But before she could do anything Skyiler lunges forwards, snapping his teeth over the mask and ripping it off her revealing her features. What he saw made his jack slack, the mask falling to the floor; it was a tigress, pink eyes, soft grey skin with black stripes and black hair.
She lashed out and slapped him "Why did you do that for!?"
A small trickle of blood runs down from the wound that was created by her claws "I just wanted to see what the person who thinks she can take me down looks like" He growled and then started to pull at the chains with all his strenght.
The tigress took a step back "W... what are you doing are you insane?" she watched in horror as the shackles started to cut into his skin coloring his fur crimson red.
But he kept pulling and then she saw it, the chains weren't breaking, but the wall where they were attached too was starting to crack "No..." was all she could make out, Skyiler smirked "Too late" then with a final tug he pulled the chains out of the wall dropping to his knees for a second, panting and breathing heavily the pain was almost unbearable.
Then he glared up at the tigress and in a split second he had her pinned up against the wall "You should concider yourself DAMNED lucky I don't hurt females! Even if they have hurt me! Had you been a male the situation would be much uglier!" He growled.
"You're not what they told me when they hired me" The tigress spoke softly "They told me you were a dangerous demon and had to be put down" She felt the grip around her neck soften slightly "I'm just someone who happens to be different from most people on this planet." Then Skyiler looked down and saw the crescent moon on the tigress' chest and looked back at her "How much did they actually tell you about me?" he growled and then grabbed a cloth and wiped the right side of his face clean from blood and revealed the crescent moon over his right eye "I am the fucking crownprince!"
The tigress gasped eyes wide in horror, ears flat "The heir? They wanted me to kill the heir?!" She threw herself at his feet looking up "I'm sorry my lord... I had no idea they only told me your name 'Purple Demon' and I was trained to be a demonslayer... My name is Aiyame Houel" She said, but the prince looked down and shook his head "Please get up, I'm not that kind of prince, I hate formalities... As for that name it's my code name here... My real name is Skyiler" He snatched the key from her pocket and unlocked his shackles "Well now that's taken care of, it's time to go" He turns to the celldoor, but Aiyame grabs his arm "Wait! There are hundreds or more people out there, there's no way we can sneak out of here unseen!"
Skyiler glances back and smirks, eyes glowing "Who said anything about sneaking out of here?" He growled barring his fangs.

***

And that's the story behind this drawing, Skyiler was betrayed by someone he loved, but the one who was going to put him down become an ally instead.
But she has a hard task ahead to gain his trust.

I wanted to give this drawing some emotions, this is the horrible truth behind his tough and almost mean exterior.
He has major trust issues and the memories of his time in this cell are still very fresh.
