My Torment

Chapter 10 – It was time to go home

Ark securing Madison against his still aroused body, he readjusted himself as he willed himself to calm down unsuccessfully. Holding to her body, Ark realised she was still trembling hard. In a sudden state of insecurity, he clasped her tighter. Her body not relaxing under his hold like he had thought it would, Ark continued to try and reassure Madison. “Shhhh. Shhhh, it’s okay. Nobody going to hurt you. I won’t hurt you.”

Staying in the same position for what felt like hours, Ark finally started settling as Madison drifted to sleep. Watching her, he could not allow his eyes to stray for even a second. Just laying and holding her in his arms, a feeling of contentment that he had never known washed through him. Well that and a stiff erection that just would not seem to go down. Pausing, Ark imagined his future, one with Madison in it. A smile raising his lips at the thought, how would she look tomorrow when she was sleepy and waking up. What about when she smiled, god what would she sound like when she laughed. It felt like something inside himself shifted, this was what he wanted, what he needed. His train of thoughts filled with her, there was no escape.

Her body starting to wiggle around, her scent became stronger intoxicating his nostrils. Twenty minutes passing, Ark continued to watch as her movements became larger and lips began murmuring incoherently. Drawing a line across her jaw with but a finger, it was only then that Ark noticed just how sweaty she had become. Unsure whether it was from the drugs, or the dream, Ark held her closer restricting her arm movements so she could not hurt herself. Her words growing louder, Madison yelled in her sleep. “No no no… please no, please don’t touch me.” Madison’s words growing clearer they trailed off, as Arks chest constricted. “Supposed to be… first time is… mate. STOP!”

Arks arms tightening, “shhhh you’re safe. Everything is going to be okay. I’m here Madi, I’m right here.” As if unable to hear him, Madison continued thrashing in her sleep trying to release his hold as tears leaked out the side of her eyes. Anger ever heightening, Ark held her in place for what felt like hours while watching her relive her darkest memories. Ark mentally promising himself, he would destroy any and everyone who had anything to do with that house. He would destroy them all.

Waking up, Madison jerked upright looking around. Remembering in an instant where she was, her eyes drifted to her waist where her mates hands were securely placed. His body slightly adjusting, he maintained his hold while asleep by her side. Eyes darting to the window, it was still dark outside. Though only just, she could already sense the imminent sunlight approaching. One thought crossing her mind, it was time to go.

Slowly prying herself from Ark’s hold, Madison stood bending down only to pick up a shirt she found in a neat pile on the couch. Taking one step toward the door, a dizziness came over her as she headed for the exit. Pain and a muddiness in her mind growing, it only got worse the more steps she took. Taking a last look back over her shoulder, Madison ignored the stiffness as she set her eyes upon the Greek god of a man laying in the bed. Just minutes ago she had been laying in those thick arms, been protected all night with his sweet scent surrounding her. It was the first night she could remember have been in a bed with a man and not violated or forced to do something she did not want.

Her mate really did seemed like a decent man, but they could never have a future with her past. Just staying by his side last night was terrifying enough, even though he did nothing. Madison was not going to be freed just to be put back into chains under his command. He was nice now, but what would happen every day following. What happens when the withdrawal hits hard, what happens when she wants to go home. His body stirring, Madison walked swiftly the rest of the way to the door. Closing it softly behind herself, she stumbled down the hallway and around the corner looking for an exit.

Crashing into a solid surface, it was Arlo. Unable to recognise him, Madison sucked in a deep breath as his hand snagged out gripping her wrist. Swaying on her feet Madison’s reflexes hardly registered what had just happened. “You serviced my brother last night? Want to try satisfy me now?” Madison jerking backward, Arlo released her wrist sending her flying backward to the floor. A chuckle surfacing his lips, he spoke again. “Right where you belong, stay down there you dirty dog.” Madison’s heart racing, she did not react staying perfectly still until he was out of sight. A deep breath escaping her, she knew she got off easy as. Moving to her knees, Madison stood shakily spotting the exit sign. Following the sign out of the building, she broke into a half run as pain invaded her chest, her mind and her stomach. Running with a gate, she finally fell to her knees in a reserve. She had no idea how far she had run, no idea where she was, but there was only one thing left to do.

Fifth attempt working, cracking and splitting pains ran rampaged through her body as she shifted. Her voice kept inside with ease, she was no stranger to pain. For once she was glad that was all she was experiencing. The pain was one thing, but the fear, the sensation when people forced their way upon you. That was truly the worst, the most horrible thing that could ever be done. Finally opening her eyes, Madison found herself in wolf form whimpering on her side. The feeling surreal, she did not think she would ever be able to shift again. Wanting to take the time to run, to feel strong. She knew she could not, she was a time bomb just ticking away. She needed to make it to her destination, needed to get there before all the drugs left her system. Lost before, she knew exactly what way to go now, her blood called her to two places. Her mate which she knew was tucked into bed in the hotel room, and her home, her real home.
