ALEX'S POV
The alarm goes off early just like it does every Saturday morning announcing that it is the nightmare of the week. Promising new pain and new torcher just like it always does.
Saturday is the day the master experiment on new things. And trust me the things he experimented on are not so pleasant. Every Saturday he will come up with a new way to torment me, a new way to make me cry. And as I suffered in agony he will always enjoy every last pain and agony I received. He doesn't care if I live or die on Saturdays he will push the boundaries of death. And that is what terrified me about the day. Saturdays scare the s**t out of me it is like every Saturday I feel like it is my last one. But every Saturday he will show me a new way to torment me. And right now all I pray on Saturdays is for him not to kill me.
I know some people say my life is worse than death but I still have hope that someday I will be free and I will always hold on to that hope. Because it is the only thing that keeps me going that keeps me breathing and I don't want to lose that. I should never lose that. Because no matter what people say life is precious and I am not ready to give it up yet. I will hold on to it as long as I can. No matter how hard it becomes., no matter how unbearable it is I will continue breathing one breath at a time and hope my life doesn't end in misery. Like all the girls that have been in this house before me and after me. I have seen a lot of girls die in this house. I have seen a lot of girls fate's being sealed in this house. And I don't want to be one of those girls who fight a lot and ended up dead. Bared in some unmarked grave. And to keep living I have to keep obeying and submitting and that is what I have done for almost four years now and I will keep on doing it as long as I have to.
I remember the first time I was brought here just as it was yesterday I was a frightened 16-year-old teenager all confused and scared of what her future may hold in this dark corner of life.
I was just been kidn*pped and my kidnapper has kept me in this dark dungeon I don't know for how long with no food or no light. He doesn't even talk to me he just kept me in the dark all hangry, scared, and silent.
In the beginning, I have tried everything I could to escape. Tried shouting for help, I tried insulting my kidnapper, I tried looking for something that could help me escape and as time goes by I became weaker and weaker until I no longer have the energy to fight or scream.
And just as I was about to lose hope. Just as I started thinking that I was going to die in that dark dungeon. The door swung open and the light blinded my eyes. At that time no matter how scared I was also grateful. Grateful that I might finally get something to eat or maybe drinking I was overly dehydrated that I could feel how thirsty I was even in my bones. As my body goes all cried up like a desert.
As he interned the room with a scary mask over his face I got scared like I was going to have a heart attack but the thing was I didn't have a heart attack. He stands over my weak living body and he smiled. A smile I will never forget, a smile that announced the torment of my life, The ending of my last freedom. He doesn't have to say anything for me to know that something terrible is coming.
He fisted my hair and lifted my weak body my feet. Causing a lot of pain in my skull I groaned with agony but I was so weak I couldn't even make a sound. And the man doesn't bother to talk either he flipped me and he put me over his shoulder as I weighed nothing. And after that, I lost consciousness as my remaining blood floor directly to my brain.
?????
By the time I became conscious I was laying in a lather sit of a very expensive moving car. I was all confused and weak. So I just lie there not giving any sign that I was awake. After a couple of minutes, I saw Ian(the driver) looking at me throw the front mirror of the car. "Ow good you are awake." He smiled as he drove me to my hell hole." oh come on don't be scared. I know it is scary but I promise it will get better." He signed as he tries to make me feel better. "I promise you if you just behave and stop fighting you will be just fine. Let me give you a little tip" he said as he drove through the darkness of the night "don't play smart that is probably the thing that gets you killed. Trust me kiddo I have been around a lot and I have driven too many girls to throw this rode and just because they play smart and they fight there faith has been siled and now let me tell you the truth I don't want you to end up in a duffle bag somewhere So listen up carefully kiddo." He annoyed amend I give him all my attention at the ist I gave him what is left of my attention and he lets me in so many views of what my life will be and thinking about it now I can see that man helped me a lot he practically saved my life.
After the long drive to my hell hole. We finally arrived and I was too weak to even look what it looks like and Ian has to carry me to my room and in the bed and the master called the doctor to save my life as I slipped slowly to death.
It took me a couple of days to completely heal. And until then I lie in my new bed all comfy and terrified of the screams that came throw the walls. Every day I heard the girl scream from some dark corner of the room I feel scared, weak, and everything a loser feels. And then after I completely healed things changed.
The master called upon me to the dark hole of the scare dungeon. He brought me to the scare room and he showed me all the terrible things he did to the girl.
She was tied to a cross all bleeding and bruised All over her body and I can tell from the looks of it that she hadn't eaten or drank anything at least for a couple of days. She was so weak and she is barely breathing. As I lay my eyes on her I saw myself in her. I feared my faith will be like her brotherly beaten and tied up on a stupid cross all dusted to die. And right there and then I vowed to do everything in my power to stay alive.
And thinking all that I missed the time where the devil walked right in. "I see you two have mate," he said as he passes right throw me and to the dying girl. "Please master kill me." She bagged with whispers. She was so weak to even speak louder and that terrified me. "What was that I didn't hear it. Well, you see you should have to think about that before you tried to stab me in my sleep. But don't work I will fulfil your dreams I will kill you eventually." He said as he circled his pray heating the iron in his hand.
After that what he did to her was horrifying. what he did to her skin was much worse than what the devil could do he burned her, curved her made her scream in every way possible. And after that, he drove the iron right through her throat and she was dead in an instant. I can't even breathe at the time I stood there and I watched a girl die. And then after that, I vowed to survive.
Speaking of Survival I have to get my butt out of bed and get ready before I get myself in trouble. So else today will be a long day and I don't want it to belong I just want it to be over with. I want it to end so that I could have my wounds taken care of and cry myself to sleep like I usually do on Saturdays.
I walked to the bathroom and I took a long bath. After that, I dried my self and I headed to Elina's room. That girl is so in over her head she loves pushing boundaries. And getting herself in trouble and me. I have been in this house long and from a long time experience what I learned is that rebelling is a means to an end. And this girl is heading to her death and that is not the only thing the thing is she is taking me with her. And I refused to die I refused to lose to hope of life I have in this little heart of mine. If she wants to rebel that is fine. During my stay here I have seen lots of girls rebel some even try to take me with them to their graves but I refused to go with any of them and this one is not taking me with her.
The last time she tricked me on disobedient I was lucky he passed me with a warning and I intended to take that warning seriously.
That day after he throw us both out of his room. He called for me after 2 or 3 hours. By the time the mad came to my room to announce I was needed. I froze I know what came after disobedience and I was scared of it. And him calling for me at that hour for punishment. My tears threaten to full. Even before I received the punishment and my stomach rolled at the memory of the sharp pain of the cane.
I quickly get naked and I pull my hair in a ponytail making myself representable for punishment. After I was sure I was ready I took a deep breath and headed to his room. I knocked once and I waited for what seemed like a long time for an answer. "Get your filthy butt in hear Alex!" he shouted. And I flinched to the power his voice holds. I slowly opened the door and let myself inside and I kneeled facing the wall. "It is good to know you know you are in trouble. But lucky for you, I am tired right now." He said as he raised from his chair and head for his bed. "Stand up and face me." He ordered and like always I didn't hesitate. "The next time I ask you to teach her something or do something for her anything regarding her you do it no matter her protests got it or else you will be punished severely do you understand me bitch.?" he roared and I nodded my hade. "Yes, master I understand," I answered with a shaking voice.
I have been in this house almost for 4 years and still never get used to his harsh voice. As a matter of fact, I will never get used to it assuming I know what came after the warning.
"Now get out of hearing I need to get some rest." He said and I rushed to the door before he changed his mind."
All this thought roaming in my mind I head to Elena's room. On my way there I mentally promised myself to never let this girl take me with her. And one foot after the other I was there before I knew it.
I don't bother knocking as I already know what she is doing. I am pretty sure she is sleeping through the beautiful sun of a Saturday morning. She still doesn't know what Saturdays hold and I feel sorry for her. But now I have to get her ready before master walks up or else we will be in deep trouble and troubles on Saturday does not go well.
"Get up Elina it is Saturday. you have to get ready. And I will tell you all about this cursed day" I said as I walk throw her door and to her bad.
But as I get closer to the bed and saw what I saw I froze. I have no explanation for what happened. Elina was sleeping peacefully in masters arm. She is lying on his chest cuddling. I can't believe he slept in her bed. I have been here for years now and master never sleeps in the same bed as anyone else. Hell, he never f**k in bed if it isn't necessary. And now he is sleeping with her in his chest. This is a miracle.
And watching this make every part of me glows with happiness. Now I may get some off time from him. Whatever he has with her will give me time to rest and heal from my continued torched slave life. I will finally have the time to recover my strength and that is what I need right now. It looks like a gift from heaven. And I am happy about it.
Standing right in front of the bed I realize something. I shouldn't be here. He should never know I was here. So I slowly tip tossed and I tried to leave the room as soon as possible. But masters voice froze me where I stand.
"Where the hell are you going?" He asked softer than usual it is kind of wired because his voice when he usually talks to me is harsher than the one he is using right now. "Hm... I am sorry master I didn't mean to disturb you I was just trying to get Elena prepared." I answered.
"Is that how you present yourself in front of a master?" He asked with a challenging and soft voice. He's talking to me calmly is a strange thing and it makes me feel strange. He never talked to me like this hell I never saw him talk to anyone like this before. He is always bossy, and rude likes reminding people he holds the cards. And now overnight he is talking to me like I am a person. I mean I am a person but not in his eyes. For him, I am just one of his expensive property. And now he is talking to me like an equal.
But no matter how he is treating me I know my place and I never dare challenge him. He made sure I will never do something like that years ago. "I am sorry master I.....I didn't mean to disobey." I apologize as I fail to my knees.
I thought I saw him smile as I kneeled but that is impossible is it not I mean. 4 years and I never even saw him let go no nor less smiled. He slowly rests Elena's hade on the soft pillow and he walks towards me.
He stands right in front of me and he cupped my face forcing me to look at his face. He massages my jawline as he let me watch his strange smile. "Tell me now sweet girl do I make Saturdays that bad for you. You considered them cursed?" He asked with that new smile of his.
I know I can't lie to him because if he finds out and he always finds out punishment will be severe. But then on the other hand how can I tell him I hate Saturdays and I hate him. Without risking punishment.
"I..." I stopped as I searched for the right word. "You know I hate liers right so whatever is your answer you better tell me or else." He warned with his usual voice and like a spell, his warning spilt the truth out of my mouth without my mind processing the words. "Yes, master I hate Saturdays. And yes master you make it hard." I answered and I waited for a slap or a sharp pain anything. But it didn't come instead he smiled and he walked to the bathroom.
"Ow and Alex get yourself a proper dress we are going out today and I don't want anyone to see u like this." He said as he pointed out my nakedness.
"yes, master," I answered and I rushed back to my room. I locked myself in and I tried to process what I just heard. He wanted me properly dressed on Saturday. Hall he never asked me to get dressed appropriately.
I mean yes he has bought me all the fancy and beautiful clothes but they were always a symbol. They were constant reminders that I could never wear them or any clothes for that matter.
But now he wants me to wear like a proper person on a Saturday morning and I am over confused. not that I am not happy but that I haven't wearied like a proper girl for over 4 years now and standing in front of the big closet is not helping.
There are so many choices in hear and they are all beautiful. but seeing them like this makes me wonder how I would walk with them on me. Oh my god, I have been a slave for so long I have forgotten how clothes feel like and now j think they are horrible.
**********
It took me over thirty minutes to choose the perfect clothing and another thirty minutes to get dressed but I managed.
This material on my body feels strange. it is so tight on my body I missed the freedom of my nakedness but this is the master's command and I am in no position to disobey. After having a long last look in the big mirror. I headed to where Master and Elina are waiting.
as I reached the parking lot the driver opened the door of the car for me and he let me in the back seat.
Elina was sitting on the front seat and she was talking with master. about where we are going. " Tell me please where are we going?" she asked. master forced his eyes to the road as he drives us to whatever he is taking us. "I told you, baby girl it is a surprise," he answers and Elina pretended to be sad. and at that time I thought he would slap her but he didn't instead he smiled.
Elina didn't say a word for the rest of the drive and I wasn't stupid enough to open up my mouth either.
The car stopped at a beautiful playground. "we are here." he announced. He turned to Elena and he smiled. Again with the smile after that, he gets out of the car and opened the door to Elina. "Thank you!" she smiled as she takes his extended hand. I stayed in the car as I don't know what to do next.
She smiled at me through the window and she opened the door for me extended her hand. "Come on let's see what he got for us." she smiled. "This is for you not for her.!" said a cold voice as I was about to get out. "well then I will gladly share it with her," announced Elina with a challenging face.
The air in the atmosphere changed and I was very uncomfortable with what is happening or what is going to happen for that matter.
"Sorry master I will stay in the car." I apologized.
"no you are not," said Elina and that makes me anxious. "I want her to come or I won't go," she said as she opened the door and gets back to the car.
"alright she can stick around." said master and Elinas face lighted with happiness. " Okay come on let's go," called Elina as she rushed to the swings. I run behind her and sit on the swing as we both giggled while swinging.
*********
We spend the day playing around like Little girls in the playground and in a way we were. we tried everything in there and after some time Elina convinced master to play with us and after a long talk he agreed and pushed us on the swing and he also sits on the Ferris wheel with us.
After that, we eat our lunch and he bought us ice cream. he made sure we get everything we wanted.
and today he wasn't my master or my tormenter, he was a gentleman a sweet guy any girl wants. if I don't know what he is capable of I would have said he is a good man. but he is not. and still, he gives me the best day in a long time.
