Chapter Eighteen All through the night Lizzy watched and listened. Each time Lucy said please, pleasure was given to her. Dr. Addams asked nothing more of Lucretia and demanded even less, just that single word “Please”. Sleep came and went. By morning, all those before her lay exhausted in a tangle of blankets and limbs. Elizabeth hung in her restraints. Her arms and legs burned with pain. Sleep would have been her only escape if she could have gotten any. She did not regret what she had done to Lucretia. Only getting caught in the lie was something to be sorry for. Elizabeth glared at them, all asleep for now and something vile began to burn in her mind. She would obey and she would submit just as she always had, for now. She had done everything he had asked her and had loved doing it.
