The Unbreakable

Chapter 3

(Alex's P.O.V)

After the nice lady took our measurements, she wrote it all down and then she bowed to griffin and I and made her way out the door, where that younger man was standing with our new clothes in his hands. After handing them over he closed the door leaving griffin and I to it.

" Wow these are quite beautiful, don't you think griffin." I couldn’t get over how soft and silky they were.

Griffin c***s an eyebrow at me, " that's how they get you, one minute they showering you with nice things, then,"

I lean in a little closer to griffin, as she paused for a moment,

"BAM." I swear I jumped like 10 feet in the air and her sudden loudness rang through my ears. Which earned her a slap on the arm.

" DON'T DO THAT," I am now clutching my chest as it feels like heart is trying to get out.Griffin was laughing so hard at my sudden mini heart attack, that she started holding her side.

"hahaha ahhh stitch ha ha ha ow ow stitch." Tears from her laughing were now coming out.

"Its not funny, I could have died!" I shouldn’t have said that cause she is now on the floor rolling around in laughter.

I just stuck my tongue out at her in a bratty way and folded my arms.

" I am going to have a bath and actually feel clean for once." She looked up at me from the floor with a smile.

"Yea you probably should." I know what’s coming next so I beat her to it. 

"cause I smell like a dead rat," lifting my eyebrow at her. Griffin wiped the tears from her eyes as she stands up. 

" Well yes that and I think you deserve it."

Even though she always likes playing little jokes on me, she truly loved and protected me. She has always been there for me from the day we got here. I will forever be grateful to her and everything she does to protect me, I just wish I could do the same.

I got undressed and let my hair down cause we actually got soap this time, so I want to wash my hair. Stepping into the hot water I could feel the sting of every cut, as I lowered myself in, but it felt good. I looked over at griffin who is now sitting on one of the chairs by the food they had brought in for us, with a chicken drum stick in her hand while she was chewing on a piece.

"griffin"

"Hmmm" she hummed at me cause she had food in her mouth.

"What if this king is nice?" Swallowing down her food, while looking at me with a raised eyebrow.

"Alex if he was so GOOD" She air-quoted the good, "then why in the hell is he collecting women!"

I didn’t exactly know how to answer, as I turned to look back at my scared legs.

"Its easy he uses and abuses women then tosses them to who knows where!!" I can see her point, but I am also optimistic.

Every other buyer that ever came here to try clam us would fall short, thanks to griffin putting 3 of them in hospital for even trying to touch us.

This time was different though and I did want to tell griffin, but I felt a pull with that tall man "shiny" as griffin calls him.

Griffin was well known amongst the town as a fighter, so men use to come see if they would be the ones to break her.

I had only ever seen scars on griffins back, a man came with a whip. It had what I can only presume metal on the ends of it, he whipped me with it but it only caught my arm, griffin immediately covered me with her body, holding me in her arms as the man gave her easy 20 slashes. When is arm got saw he didn’t even see it coming when griffin tackled him to the ground, and beat him to within inches of his life.

She healed really quickly, but this time these cuts kept bleeding for a while and left deep scars.

"Griffin, I really think we not getting out of this one." I didn’t want to look up at her as I played with the water.

"Like I said I will protect you at any cost" her voice was in a low tone and extremely serious.

"I don’t like seeing you get hurt griffin." I couldn’t help the tears that were now falling. Griffin stood up and dragged the chair with her so she was now sitting next to the bath.

"Alex you are my sister and I love you," she smiles as she is saying that.

All I want to do is be able to protect her like she has me, but I am weak and defiantly don't have the same strength as her.

"I know you do griffin and I love you to, sniff, I just wish I could protect you too." I am full on sobbing at this point.

Griffin grabbed my hand and gave it a light squeeze. "You do help me," I bring my head up to look at her. "You have always been there to help me with my wounds, also helping me not go madder than I already am" this earned her a giggle from me.

"Besides you don’t think I am going crazy when I hear layla in my head and I tell you"

Layla is the voice that griffin hears in her head she has had her for as long back as I can remember. She gives griffin really good advice, so who am I to judge.

"I just wish I could fight like you griffin"

"Yea I know but if you did there would be no fun left for me," She laughs at this as do I, I just gave her a hug.

"Right miss smelly of aaaalllllll the smellies," she was not impressed by that but I don’t care it was true. "into the bath with you."

She smiled at me and stood up to get undressed, as I was getting out the bath.

Griffin was skinny but she also had muscles and was very defined from the continuous training she does, she had an emasculate body, if we weren’t in her she defiantly would have been a model. Her face was almost round but not in the plump kind of way cause you could see her defined jaw and cheek bones.

I got dressed quickly and walked over to her, to help was her back it was filthy. To be fair so was the rest of her body. After helping her wash I was finally able to convince her to wear the new clothes. The silky material hugged her curbs, as the golden skirt flowed down with 2 splits up the sides all the way up to her thigh, the white shirt covered her breasts but the top was low and back with a wrap around that tied on the side. She looked awesome! She tied her hair in a ponytail so it hung down her back.

"How the f**k am I going to train in this" she says looking down at herself. I giggled at her. 

"Well lets give it a try then shell we?"
