Chapter 6
It turns out the next thing he did was kiss me. I was so surprised that I let him... or at least surprise was the reason I told myself later. It was a rough kiss.
I wouldn't expect anything less from him. I thought later.
I wasn't thinking much at the time. Then, slowly my thoughts came back to me.
Okay, here I am, lying on a hard wooden floor on an underdeveloped planet pinned under Albel the Wicked... and enjoying it as he bruises my mouth with his mouth and tongue...
Suddenly, he stopped. With one quick motion, he slide off to my side, grabbed me, and tossed me to his bed.
"No, no, no, no, no." I whined.
My whole attitude abruptly changed.
"No, no, no, what?" He asked in a tone I have never heard from him as he towered back over me.
"No, no, I want to do this." I closed my eyes in genuine anxiety over what I had gotten myself into.
"It seems to me you want it very much, " he alleged, "but if you really want to leave..."
I did, but as I opened my eyes, I realized that he was surrounding me once again and not moving. I whined a bit in my frustration. Finally, with a sinister chuckle, he moved to let me off the bed. I quickly rounded the table and put my jacket on before looking up at him again. As I put my shoes on, I saw that he had already turned over to go back to sleep. Significantly more relaxed, though my heart still beat rapidly, I simply walked to the door. He didn't really care, of course. He was just torturing me. He was plenty willing to wait for me to come to him.
And I won't.
I paused at the door, praying... well, hoping that no one saw me leaving his room. For some reason, for which I was very thankful, I remember the room number Nell had told me. So, I walked quickly upstairs to our two bed room and crawled into bed barely bothering to slip off my shoes.
We were at the Kirsla Training Facility. I remembered that much. How I ended up blindfolded, gagged, scantily dressed, and bound to ... something, I wasn't quite sure at the moment. I pulled on the ropes, but there was no give in them at all. I tried to use what senses were available to me to figure out where I was at now, but I didn't have much to work with. It was very bright and there seemed to be a breeze. My heart pounded when I realized I was outdoors. I could tell by were the breeze that I was not wearing very much at all. I pulled more forcefully on my bonds, but realized with a whimper that I wasn't going anywhere.
A low chuckled alerted me to the presence of someone else. Albel. I knew it was him. He was the one standing in front of me delighting in my unease and he was the one that put me here. The question was if there was anyone else there too.
Oh please don't there be anyone else to see me like this...
He walked up to me and stroked my cheek. I bit back another whimper.
"I told your little friends that I saw you leave about an hour ago. They believed me. They wondered why you would just leave without saying anything to anyone, but you have been acting strange lately."
I took in as deep of a breath as I could and held it waiting for him to continue.
"They were worried and went out looking for you. The fools will be gone for days and you are all mine until then." I could imagine the smirk on his face.
I let out a slow ragged breath. They weren't going to be coming for me. I didn't know whether to be disappointed or relieved.
He began to touch and pinch and kiss me all over for what seemed like hours. I hated that I was loving it. I could tell he was just about to do something new, but then he stopped.
"What do you want, maggot?"
I was just about to answer him when I realized he wasn't talking to me.
Oh, no. Oh, no. There is someone else here. Oh, no.
I could feel my whole face turning red. There was someone else looking at me like this.
"Sophia? Sophia? Are you okay?" I heard Nell ask with calm concern.
I really began to panic then. Nell was there.
What if Fayt is here too. What about the others? How long have they been here? Did they see me actually enjoying what Albel was doing to me? Oh, no."
I felt like I was going to cry for a very long time.
"Sophia! Sophia, wake up." Nell insisted.
Wake up? I thought.
Then, with the realization that it was all a dream, the whole place went completely black.
I opened my eyes.
"Hey, are you okay? You've been moaning for a while now and you're hot and red. Should I go get a doctor?" the real Nell asked.
"No," I told her, "It was just a bad dream."
Just a "bad" dream.
