Fétiche, Callele Lyvance [the kiss of deception read online txt] 📗

"Yes! Those are my favorite parts," she said enthusiastically. "I after all developed the right methods of processing the skin! Then it is soaked in special acid solution I made to make sure that it's all pure skin. After that, it goes through the usual tanning process to add color to it."


"After the tanning process," she continued, leaning closer in excitement. "I slice the skin into very thin long pieces and wind it as thread. Then my people weave it to make the fabric. That way its natural properties are kept intact and even enhanced when sewed into various clothing pieces."

"Yes, and we use different chemicals to treat it because it's not your average animal leather. The whole process of making a Fétiche skin is painstaking. But I must say that the most difficult part of producing it is getting the skin itself."


"Oh…Is it taken in a very meticulous manner? Is it harvested somewhere across the globe?"


"No," Alayna replied chuckling. "It's practically taken the way you skin any animal, I guess. Only, you don't do it on an animal. There's only one thing that makes getting the skin difficult."It's that you must be sure that the 'someone' you get it from, will not be missed or looked for by anyone," she said with a wide and proud smile on her face.


"…Someone..?"


"Yes! So tell me. Do you have any living relatives?"
