Chapter five – (Deepening)
Sara woke up feeling a sharp pain in her head. She struggled against her restraints before opening her eyes. She took in her surroundings immediately and instead focused on a small figure curled up on the bed that was the only thing furnishing the room.
'Cath...Catherine?' She whispered. The figure turned to look at her. 'Oh my god' Sara exclaimed as she say Catherine's bruised and bloody face. Her eyes travelled down as she saw Cath's bruised body and the tell-tale bruises on her thighs. 'God Cath, what has he done to you?' Catherine's eyes filled up with tears as she tried to cover herself up.
'Sara...just do what he wants....please. He won't hurt you then.' Sara couldn't believe the change in Catherine, where had the strong woman that she knew gone? She moved herself over to the bed so she could talk to Cath properly.
'Who is he?' Sara asked. 'What does he want?'
'I don't know who he is' whispered Cath. 'He won't tell me but he told me that...' her voice trailed off and her eyes widened in terror as she saw her attacker enter the room and stand behind Sara.
'Ms Sidle' said the man, 'nice to see you awake but I don't remember giving you permission to move.' He kicked her in the stomach causing her to gasp and wince in pain.
'NO!' Cath cried. The man smiled.
'Does this bother you Catherine?' he asked. 'Would you rather have me spend some more time with you?' He stroked the side of her face and Sara could see the terror in her eyes.
'Leave her alone!' she shouted. 'Haven't you done enough to her already?' This statement earned her a slap from the man.
'Shut up Sara, or you won't like what will happen to you.'
'Like what' answered Sara defiantly. This made the man laugh.
'Well let me put it to you like this. Catherine didn't shut up when she was told and look at her now...We had fun though, didn't we Catherine?' Catherine closed her eyes, pain evident on her face. The man smiled.
'Well I'm going to leave you two lovely ladies for now' he told them. 'I've got some business to take care of, involving your men.' With that last comment he turned and walked out of the room, locking it behind him. Catherine and Sara were left alone.
