Chapter 8
Stephanie waited as the guards exited the dungeon. She nearly gagged as the rancid smell of dead corpses filled her nostrils. Still she was safe from Taker. She was safe and alone. She quickly slipped her hands through the shackles and chuckled to her self. She was complaining on how painful the shackles were that the guards didn't bother to really tighten them. She then ripped the white dress she was forced to wear half way allowing her to move her legs easier. She then looked around through some old bones and looking for a sharp one small one.
After a while she found one. She was happy that she found one and hopefully she could use it to pick the lock on the door. She slipped her thin arm through the bars and placed the bone inside the keyhole. She pressed her ear against the door in hopes to be able to hear if she was doing anything to the lock. She twisted it around a few times and heard the bone scratching against the inside. "Come on." She whispered.
Just as she turned the done again she felt someone grab her arm. Steph gasped and instantly shouted, "LET ME GO YOU BASTARD!"
"Did you take Becky by her own will or did you kidnap her?" she heard Kane say. Steph looked through the bars at the mask Captain of the guards and the brother of the man who ordered her to be locked in here. She looked at his masculine body and didn't care if he could hurt her. She continued to glare at him. "Why should I tell you anything?" she snapped instantly and trying to get free.
As she tried to get free Kane's hold on her tightened. Steph held tightly to the bone pick she was using to try and break free but Kane wouldn't let go. "I will not ask again wench! Did you take her?" he asked in anger. Steph let out a low growl when he called her a wench. I'll show you wench! She thought as he squeezed her arm tightly causing her pain.
"I will tell you nothing!" Stephanie shouted. "WIP ME! KILL ME FOR ALL I CARE! THERE ARE WORSE FATES THEN DEATH!" Kane's gripped softened a bit. Steph kept her stern face even though Kane's temper was flaring. She turned away from him but with incredibly speed he grabbed her by the chin and forced her to look at him. Steph tried to pull away but his grip was strong, much like his brother.
"I implore you, please tell me the truth!" Stephanie heard him say. Although he was monstrous and almost frightening Stephanie couldn't help but think he was begging for her to tell him. She noticed the sadness in his eyes. She felt her heart begin to hurt. She didn't know exactly why but she broke down her walls and wanted to tell him.
"All right. Yes, I did take her against her will. If you look by her throat you can where my blade cut into her skin!" She said. She then turned away from Kane unable to keep up her strong defense that she normally placed up. Kane let her go and simply gave her a "Thank you." And left swiftly.
Steph stood there and felt weird. "What is wrong with me?" she asked herself. She stood there for a while trying to think WHY she told Kane instead of having him beat it out of her. She then realized that the way Kane looked at her was the same way she felt when people looked at her, Sad, angry, betrayed, and alone! Steph groaned and then realized she still had the bone in her hand. She grinned and then said, "Thanks Kane." And then continued to try and open the lock.
After what seemed like hours of trying to break the lock the bone snapped. Steph groaned and held the broken bone in her hand. she tossed it to the ground and slumped down to the floor. "Damn it!" she shouted looking up at the evening sky. She tucked her knees under her chin and felt like crying her eyes out. NO! she thought. I can't cry! I just have to believe that everything will be okay! I'll get out of here!
Even though she thought that it really did seem hopeless.
In the harem room Lord Undertaker was sitting while his ladies were around him. They tried to pleasure him but he wasn't in the mood nor was he happy. He had been denied by a woman. A very captivating woman who was strong willed. She was able to deny him and not fear him like most woman. She actually hurt him but that made him only desire her more. He would love to make love to her. She was fiery and she would make an excellent addition. Not only was she strong but beautiful. Her fair skin, beautiful brown hair, and her mysterious eyes made him lust for her. All he had to do was break her.
"You're dismissed." Taker said to his harem. The women all looked puzzeled. They wanted to know what was wrong but instead of questioning him they left him alone, except for Sara. She grinned and sat in Taker's lap. "I dismissed you!" Taker said coldly. Sara slid her hands down his chest and to his manhood. "Master, surely you don't mean me." she said kissing him. "I said you are Dismissed!" he said with anger. Sara instantly stood up. She being the favorite of Lord Undertaker had never seen him dismiss her. She nodded and left the room.
"He dismissed me!" Sara said in anger. "I'm so humiliated!" she felt her hands tremble. What could have made him so angry and unwilling to make love to her. As she was heading down the hall she passed the kitchen and heard two people talking. Normally she'd ignore them but this particular conversation caught her attention.
"I hear the former slave cook was made one of the Master's Harem girls." said one of old cooks.
"Yes, and she refused him!" said another.
"Are ye sure?"
"AYE! She even drew blood from his lip! I saw it that i did! Also the master was quite mad when and now she's in the dungeon!"
"Oh, the poor girl!"
"Aye but be silent about it. If the master hears us he might put us in the dungeon!"
Sara's anger was burning. SO! she thought her hatred showing in her eyes. A wench was the reason! I will not be second! She marched into her room and undressed from her gown and into a simple dark blue dress. She placed a vail over her face and crept from her room barefooted.
She headed into the dungeon and found the smell almost unbarable but she had to press on. She found the key to the cells on the wall. She took the key and searched through each cell until she came to one with a girl curled up and leaning against the wall. THAT'S HER! Sara thought in anger. WHAT'S SO SPECIAL ABOUT HER? I have larger breasts, a slender body, beautiful soft hair, long legs, and I'm not a peiece of garbage! Sara couldn't believe this girl was the one Taker wanted over her.
She didn't care though. She had to get rid of her. The only way she could think of was to open the door and let her escape. If she escaped then no one could blame her. She would then poisen the hounds making them sick, too sick to go and find her. Then she would be the master's favorite once more!
Sara opened the cell door and the girl looked up. Sara stared at her through the veil. "Hurry." Sara said. Stephanie looked at her and stood up. "What?" Steph asked. "Hurry and run! If not i'll leave you here!" Stephanie was confused. She didn't know what to think. She headed toward the door and when Sara didn't move she ran out. Sara watched as she ran out of the dungeon.
Steph quickly and quietly ran up the stairs and found the kitchen deserted. She quickly grabbed some food and placed them in a cloth napkin. She then took another knife and held it close to her. If anyone stood in her way should would not hesitate to kill.
After quietly sneaking through the manor she made it outside. She went over to the peach tree she used the first time to get over the wall when she saw someone was there. She gasped but when she saw the person hold a light she saw it was Becky. "What are you doing?" Becky asked looking at her. Steph didn't respond. "Tell me or I'll scream!" Becky threatened. Steph sighed and said, "Alright..." she then quickly pulled out her knife and like before held it against Becky's throat. Becky gasped and felt the cold steal against her.
"You scream and I'll kill you!" Steph threatened. "Now how did you get here?" Becky smiled. "I saw you creeping past Kane's room. I told him a little lie and luckily enough my ankle wasn't in that much pain that i could come out here and find you. Why are you running away?"
"I told you!" Steph said in a loud whisper. "I won't be his whore! I want to go back to my home! The one at the edge of the country near the ocean! You know on the west side." Becky looked at her and noticed she was frustrated. "But what if something attacks you?" becky asked. "Please! Try and understand! How would you feel seeing your family die! Then having to be sold to a man who wants you body for his sickening pleasure and then being sold to another man just like that! Becky! PLEASE let me go and DO NOT tell anyone. I just want to go back home!"
Becky could tell that she had a hard life. She couldn't even imagine how bad her life was but then again maybe she could. She had Kane to watch over her but Undertaker was different. He was greedy and had a room full of women who wanted him. She then did the only thing she could think of. She stepped aside. Stephanie smiled and climbed the tree.
"Thank you... and Becky keep this a secrete!" Steph begged. Becky nodded and said, "I give you my word!" Steph smiled and climbed over the wall and disappeared into the darkness.
The first day Stephanie traveled non stop. She didn't want anyone catching up to her. She didn't have any horse or any way to travel but on foot. It was tiring but she had to keep going. She had to get to her home. She ate as she walked and only took short breaks when she felt to exhausted to go on.
That night she rested for a few hours and then as soon as she awoke she continued on her journey. Even though Stephanie wasn't really sure if she was going to right way she had to get far away. Myabe the next town she hit she could find a map or have someone take her back to her home by the ocean.
After four days of travling Stephanie was exhausted and hungry when she saw a town. She was excited and used whatever energy she left to get to the town. Once there she looked around breifly and passed out only to have a crowd of people surround her.
