How To Melt An Ice Cube 8 Your Name Shall Be Mulan!

She caught me Han Bing was practically moving his feet as fast as they went to expel the embarra.s.sed feeling he felt when he found out. "I couldn't just let her continue doing those poses in almost nothing!" Han Bing thought to himself, "Just a slight twist and the robe easily could have fallen onto the ground revealing her entrising body to whoever was around to see."

Han Bing had to slow down as his thought were moving the blood in his body to his soaring dragon that was hiding under his robes. He groaned as the clothing rubbed against him arousing him even more. With all his might he ran to the nearest room to take care of his most immediate problem at hand.

Once inside and hidden from the view of the servants he slowly stroked his ragging dragon to release the pressure inside. His clumpy hand started to obtain a good Han Bing that made his dragon start to quiver in excitement.

"Young master, Young master! Where are you" a servant was shouting outside the room he was currently taking care of business in.

Han Bing growled as he realized that these buffoons were about to ruin his thoughts. However he didn't realize how strong the effect of thinking of Mai naked was. His legs began to shake as he stroked his dragon faster and faster. His dragon was pulsing so much before it pumped out its milky cream onto his hand. Feeling as light as a kite and better than he had his whole life he got up to clean himself to hide the evidence from any planted spies that might be about. He couldn't let this little bit of information to wind up in the wrong hands.

"Young master, we need your a.s.sistance! Stop hiding from us" A old female's servants voice could be heard through the doors.

Han Bing realized that it had to be something about Mai and forgot about his current appearance to let her into the room.

"Young master why are you in the storage room?" A look of astonishment was on the face of Zhi Ruo. Until she looked at the young master in front of her, then she couldn't help but giggle.

Han Bing clothing was in different places then when he had left Mai's room earlier with his hair slightly undone. Nothing about his appearance screamed the prince over the domain that he had looked earlier in its place stood a young man that had been fooling around.

"Young master! What have you been doing in the storage room to have such a appearance?" Zhi Ruo asked, she very much knew exactly what Han Bing had been doing in the room.

Han Bing face went as pink as possible as he tried to mumble nothing. This was Zhi Rou though, his most trusted servant that had been with him as long as he could remember. Whenever anything went bad he could always rely on her expertise to come out on top. Quite a few times she had saved his life when he was younger. How could he lie to her now?

"Young master, I like her" Zhi Ruo said.

That was all Han Bing needed to realize that it wasn't just him that had a inkling of hope that there might be a normal future that he could look forward to instead of the nightmare that was his current life. It wasn't as though he had never seen a attractive woman before, but it was the way she talked, the aura that she possessed that made her irresistible to him. It also helped that she had not been sent by his enemies and knew no one else here.

Nodding his head towards Zhi Ruo, Han Bing said "me to."

"Young master, you can't change your habits like this. Every since Mai has arrived you have been doing things differently, it has probably been picked up by you know who already. He is really crafty, for your sake and Mai's please be careful" Zhi Ruo said.

Realizing the blunder that he made and shuddering at the consequences he almost ran off to do what he normally did at this hour.

"Oh yes, Young master, Mai would like to know how exactly she is supposed to take care of the pig, especially when it needs to do its business" Zhi Ruo said

Han Bing cursed Zheng Li gifting sense once again and said "let her go to the closest courtyard. Close it for everyone else and say that we are doing maintenance in the area and that it is unsafe to be."

"It will be as you say young master" Zhi Ruo said "I will go let her know that she can go into the courtyard, she was rather upset about being stuck in her room all day."

Zhi Ruo left the room, leaving Han Bing to think about how to better hid Mai's presence and yet still indulge in it.

After 30 minutes of waiting Mai's door reopened with Zhi Ruo appearing.

"Great news mistress, the young master has declared that you can use the adjacent courtyard from here as you wish."

Mai's eyes grew huge as she realized that she was practically free from here and could possible escape now. "The food I made him must really have changed his mind. Finally I am going to get much better treatment then before" Mai thought to herself.

Stretching her legs, Mai jumped out of the bed.

"Let's go piggy, well I can't keep calling you piggy so what should your name be?" Mai said.

The pig that had been laying on the ground near the bed had let out a small oink as if it agreed.

"Hmmm let's think, How about Mulan?" Mai said.

Mulan was incredibly unoriginal but it was one way to remember the place that she had came from. Mulan had been her mom's favorite Disney movie. Mai started thinking about how her mom would always ask if she wanted to watch the movie and how they would sing along to every song. Some would even have dance moves to the embarra.s.sment of her father as he had to enduring watching it too to please his wife. Remembering her parents caused fat tear drops to form and silently fall down her face.

Seeing that her mistress was crying, Zhi Ruo came over to the side of the bed and gently cradled Mai in her arms. "Shhh child, everything will be okay. You are safe now you don't have to worry about anything, I will protect you." Her hand had been stroking the top of her head and following downwards with Mai's hair. Contrary to her belief instead of soothing Mai this only made her cry more.

They stayed in that position for close to a hour as Mai released all her pent up sadness. Unlike most people who transmogged, Mai was different from them. She didn't have the strength or ability to change what the future was going to hold. The worst part was that she wasn't a loner like most of the other girls that got sent back. It was extremely hard for her to just forget about that life and carry on here.
