You know just because you're the 'boss' around here doesn't mean you have the right to ABUSE me" Lana shouted at Jude
"As long as you're under MY roof, I can do whatever I goddamn please with you" Jude snarled back at Lana.
Jude marched back to the closet that held all of her canes, the one she was putting away had been the biggest one. Lana slowly stretched back up while pulling her plain underwear up over her bare backside. She sharply sucked in air through her teeth as the pain from the caning started to hit her.
Jude chuckled as she closed the closet doors, "Yeah, that's right. Think about that next time you want to speak down to me"
Jude walked back and sat in her chair behind her desk before giving a disgruntled look back at the woman still sniffling and rubbing her hurt side.
"Well? What are you still doing here? Get out! Or do you want to get caned again?" she made a 'shooing' sign with her hand, then looked back down at the paperwork on her desk.
Lana slowly made her way to the door trying to hold in her little pained moans, again due to the caning.
Mary's POV
I saw Ms. Winters open the door from Sister Jude's office. She was limping her way towards the stairs and looked as if she had been crying. Jude had probably caned her without mercy.
"Ms. Winters! " I shouted hoping but not at the same time, she'd turn my way. "Please wait"
Lana turned her head to me and made a strong effort to smile through her pain.
"Yes" I could barely hear her whisper. "I see that you are having some trouble walking. Please, let me help you."
"No, no please. I can do this myself."
"Nonsense" I wasn't going to let her spend 3 years trying to get to her room. Simply because she didn't want to be embarrassed by having me walk her to her room.
"I'm helping you, end of discussion" I took her hand in mine and let her lean onto me, soon starting to wrap my other hand around her waist for support.
We slowly started to walk down the long hall to the cells, Lana never taking her eyes off the floor. It was so silent between us, all I could hear was the occasional screams of inmates.
"Lana", I started, "I just wanted to ask, how much does it hurt?"
I had been caned before, but Jude had never done it that hard. I had seen her do 100 times worse to other patients here at Briarcliff. However even though she hadn't given a lot of her strength towards caning me, it still hurt. I couldn't imagine how much it hurt when Jude really wanted it to hurt.
"I don't even think I can walk by myself without practically falling" she said in a low, annoyed voice.
"I'm sorry, you seem like a nice person. Give it time and you'll be cured! I promise, Lana." I promptly smiled.
It really was a shame to see miss Winters here. If only she could believe it herself that having intercourse with someone of the same gender was a sin. She would be cured and be able to get out of here. She honestly was a nice person, a strong woman, beautiful even.
"No, I promise you I won't be"
We had made it all the way to Lana's cell and I started to open the door.
"Whatever do you mean?"
"I MEAN, it's not a disease. I'm not going to get cured" She snarled back.
"But Sister Jude-"
"Sister Jude thinks two people falling in love is a sin. Simply because they both happen to be the same gender. I don't care what Sister Jude thinks. I am who I am, and anyone who wants to fight me on that can kiss my broken ass"
Lana stifled past me to get into her cell and nearly fell onto the bed.
"Miss Winters, I-"
"Just close the door," She was practically sobbing out.
I shut the door and took one last look through the cell window. Lana was curled up in a ball violently sobbing into the pillow. If I'm going to be honest here, it hurt me. It hurt me to know that a woman like her, so strong, was finally beginning to become broken. Lana was right, she did not belong in here. She did not have a disease! She was simply, in love.
