638 Words
*Warning r**e tirgger* Night hours came and Ophelia thought about sneaking off the ship, but her problem was that she didn't know how to control a craft. She didn't know what to do so she paced back and forth in the room.  The door opened and she looked to see if it was Tabnam back, but it wasn't.  "Hello, pretty girl." The man said. He stalked into the room. Everything in Ophelia's body said to run. She moved, but he rushed at her. She moved but he was able to talk her to the floor. She screamed as loud as she could, hoping someone would hear her. He clawed at her body. Tugging at her clothes. When she ran out of breath from screaming she took in a large breath but he covered her mouth with his. She wanted to gag. His weight was crushing her. His weight was removed from her and she looked up to see Tabnam holding the man. He held him high off the ground. Then threw him at the bed. He grabbed Ophelia and she started sobbing. He lifted her gently off the ground. "Pet, it is okay." He petted her hair. He took her out of the room. He walked with her for a while as she sobbed into him. The fear of being here felt like Direlili by not feeling safe from anyone. They moved into a dark room and set her down. Then turned on a light. "Lia, you are okay." He tried to soothe her. She looked up at him then the room around her. She was in another bedroom. This one looked like it was already being lived in. Her fear went up again and she scurried away from him. She looked at him in fear. "If I wanted to do what he did, I would have already. I think it is safer if you stay in my room with me." That didn't calm her down. He kneeled onto the bed. Moved towards her. "Why do I have to be your pet?" She croaked. "Because I've been looking for a flower like you in a sea of weeds." He gently ran his hand through her hair. "I just want to be with Adrik. He may only see me as his friend but I know I will always be safe with him." She moved her knees to her chest and put her head between them. "You don't know the men from that planet at all. He is just as bad as the rest of them. I saved you from all of that."  "I don't believe you. You are the reason for all the problems going on in the Galaxy." She quoted what Leo had said. "Where have you been in the past five years because you would know that I am trying to save it." He said angrily. "Stuck on Direlili in fear like I am here." She moved her head to sit her chin on her knees. "That happened in your room should have not happened. You are safer here than any place else." He stopped and looked around. "You said Direlili, then why aren't you acting like a princess." "Because being like that was never in me. Who wants to act like you are better than another when I  have never belonged." Ophelia felt like she was talking to a therapist who scared her. Tabnam moved away from her. And sat on the edge of the bed. "I will lock the door here. I am going to take out the trash from your room. If you are tired please fall asleep. I will sit in that chair all night." He pointed to the chair in the corner across from the bed. Ophelia stayed there for a while before her body crashed. She fell asleep in the corner.
