THE VICTIMS CHAPTER TWELVE
I couldn't believe someone had just brought an entire mountain of food for me.In addition to the hot chocolate, there were items that I could identify, such as fried eggs, thick slices of white bread with REAL butter, sausage links, cinnamon rolls topped with frosting, bacon, and other things.Was Aric anticipating that I would finish all of this food?As I looked between him and the mountain of food in front of me, I was trying to think of a way to tell him that there was no way I could eat even half of what was in front of me, let alone the whole thing, when he let out a hearty laugh. As I looked between him and the mountain of food, I was trying to think of a way to tell him that there was no way that.He laughed as he drank from the mug of... blood he had in front of him and told her, "You don't have to consume it all." "Since you wouldn't tell me what your preferences were, I requested that they deliver you a sample of everything that had been cooked that morning."After you've
THE VICTIMS CHAPTER THIRTEEN
Aric could not take his eyes off his hands as he thought about the blood, her blood, that was trickling from his fingertips.I had no intention of causing her any harm.Angel was her name, he replied, his voice cracking with the emotion he was feeling. Since she was thirteen years old, I'd kept her, and she was more than just a pet to me; she was my closest friend.As he continued, he moved to sit cross-legged on the floor. "You see," he said, "when slaves reach the age of twenty-eight, our regulations stipulate that they must be disposed of in one of two ways." They are either delivered to a facility where they will be bled to death, and their blood will be added to our supply, or they are transported to a breeding clinic where they will be artificially inseminated an excessive number of times until they are unable to have children.He sniffed, unable to look at Liberty as he continued, "Angel was scheduled for the clinic." When she found out, she begged me to help her end her life o
THE VICTIMS CHAPTER FOURTEEN
When I was finally able to use the restroom, the idea that went through my head was, "I never realized a body could store that much liquid and not burst."As I washed my hands, I was astounded when the hot water started coming out of the faucet instantly.When I got home, it would take the water anywhere from five to ten minutes to get to a temperature that was even close to lukewarm, but here, the water was so hot that I almost scalded myself.And the soap, oh the soap, had a lavender scent with a hint of lime, which was very different from the lye soap we had back at the house. The soap I discovered beside the sink did not cause my hands to become brittle and dry like other soaps; rather, it left my hands feeling soft and smooth.Because I wasn't sure whether I should use the clean towels, I decided to dry my hands on the front of my shirt instead.For the sake of safety.When I opened the door to go back to my place at the table, I observed many human slaves running back and forth.
THE VICTIMS CHAPTER FIFTEEN
Aric worked through the night without being conscious that he had done so until he felt the daylight approaching. When he looked at the clock, he realized that he still had time to consume some meals and provide some nourishment for his pet before he was required to take a break.Before gazing across at Liberty, he stood and stretched out the muscle cramps that had plagued him for the previous day.Even though she didn't say a thing, he could still tell that she was unfeeling. Her lips and nail beds had a bluish tinge, and she kept rubbing her arms and legs to warm them up. Her skin was pale.After spending the entire day ignoring her, he began to feel bad and decided to feed her and then focus on buying her more suitable apparel.He continued to glance at her while he questioned, "Hungry?"Liberty did little more than nod while expending all of her strength to conceal the fact that she was trembling.Aric's voice can be heard on the phone saying, "Dinner, a negative, and something wa
THE VICTIMS CHAPTER SIXTEEN
As I stood in the bathroom, I recoiled in terror at the horrifying shade of pink that I had become.The velour sweatsuit was a fantastic fit, but it was pink! And not just any pink; it was shockingly bright pink.I'm talking about being able to see it in the dark from a mile away while wearing pink blindfolds.The socks, complete with their jingling bells, were the first to be removed from the pile.I eventually located a pair of nail clippers in one of the drawers, and after pinching and clipping my nails until my fingers hurt, I discovered that none of them were left.There were some things I was willing to get punished for, and snipping dozens of little silver bells from my socks was one of those things. To tell you the truth, I was frightened that Aric would be upset with me, but there were some things I was willing to get punished for.I steeled my nerves before reaching for the door, doing my best to ignore the pink nightmare that glared back at me in the mirror as I threw away
THE VICTIMS CHAPTER SEVENTEEN
Aric sat back and observed Liberty eat her meal while she cleaned her mouth with the roll she had found and the remaining.After she had finished, Aric stood there waiting for her to perform the same thing he had just done.Liberty stood up as soon as she caught a glimpse of impatience in his gaze.While he was looking at her from below, he remarked, "Do you need to use the bathroom before bed?"She shook her head and moved towards her cage as she did so.Aric observed as she entered the building, her body visibly contracting in on itself as she took a momentary pause and drew a deep breath before continuing.As he pulled the door shut behind her, he gave some thought to whether or not it was necessary for him to really lock it.After coming to a conclusion, he chose to abandon the idea.Aric walked around the enclosure until he was standing in front of her, and then he waited for her to look directly into his eyes.He heaved a sigh and said, "I'm not going to lock you in," thinking t
THE VICTIMS CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
The expression on Liberty's face changed when Aric took the collar and leash off the ground."I'm sorry about this," he continued, putting it around her neck and fastening it, "but pets without collars are food for anyone who wants them."'Even when we get back to Spokane, you need to make sure you have this on when you're not in my room or presence,' he explained, ensuring that the leather band wasn't pulled too tightly. 'Even when we get back to Spokane, you must ensure you have this on when you're not in my room or presence.Liberty gave a reassuring nod, attempting to calm her racing heart.It wasn't that she was truly afraid of Aric because he had done nothing to make her feel that way; on the contrary, she had no reason to be afraid of him. Her anxiety was triggered whenever she considered the possibility of leaving the protected environment of the lodge.After leaving and arriving back in Spokane, everyone could tell that she had not made it.People would find out, and eventual
THE VICTIMS CHAPTER NINETEEN
When Aric's icy hand came down on my knee, I was startled and couldn't help but jump backward.After observing my response, he apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, I didn't want to startle you." You just looked unhappy."She sighed and wiped a tear from her pale face before saying, "I'm OK."Aric removed his hand and said, "You know," before adding, "you're a terrible liar."Liberty sniffed as she looked at him and apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, I was thinking about my mom." The past few days have been consumed by her concern for my well-being. I only wished there was a way to get the message across to her."When we get to town," he added, immediately taking his eyes off the road to gaze at her, "I will arrange for you to give her word that you are safe if you like." He continued by saying that he would do this for her if they reached their destination."Really?" I inquired, well aware of how my expression brightened.He nodded in agreement and turned his attention back to the road before
