Chapter 13: Rehema's wrath.

Imafu lay in the dirt after being beaten and raped by Rehema. He was now slapping her and telling her to get up. Imafu's bloody body wouldn't move so Rehema pulled her to her feet violently.

"Get up BITCH!" He roared.

Imafu tried to run away, but her body killed her. She collapsed just a few feet away from the cave. Kutisha lifted her head.

"Imafu?"

"HELP ME!"

"I can't Laduma chained me up!"

Rehema grabbed hold of Imafu. Suddenly Kutisha heard screaming.

"No please! Not again." Cried Imafu.

"Hold still!" Snarled Rehema.

Kutisha knew she was being raped again, she shuddered and lay down sighing. Minutes later Imafu's body was thrown to the back of the cave. Blood poured from her wounds. Imafu looked up at Kutisha her face was cut, Kutisha gently pulled her mangled body underneath her. Rehema padded towards her an evil smirk on his face.

"If you value your pathetic life, i'd step away from her."

"No." Said Kutisha standing over Imafu.

"Fine." Said Rehema charging at Kutisha.

Kutisha slashed Rehema's eye.

"MY EYE!" He hissed clutching his right eye.

As he moved his paw away it was obvious it wasn't there any more. Blood poured from his now flat skin in his eye

"YOU WHORE!"He roared lunging at Kutisha.

Kutisha pulled on the chain with maximum strength causing it to shatter. Kutisha attached herself on Rehema's back sinking her teeth into his skin. He fell onto the floor just as Laduma re-appeared in the entrance.

"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN HERE?"

Kutisha got off Rehema blood dripping from her mouth. She licked her lips and turned her back on him. Laduma ran over to his brother.

"Your eye!" He exclaimed.

"Your girlfriend ripped it out of it's socket!" He hissed.

"Tamu is this true?"

"Yes." Replied Kutisha. "But only because he attacked Imafu, then tried to attack ME."

Laduma shook his head.

"You treat lionesses like slaves Rehema." Laduma turned coldly on his brother.

"So what?" He spat."She's mine i'll do as I wish with her!"

Laduma went to the back of the cave to see to Imafu but he was too late, Imafu lay on the floor surrounded by a puddle of blood.

"Have it your way Rehema."

Rehema forced Imafu to her feet, making her groan and then cough up blood. Rehema rolled his menacing eye's and dragged her from the cave. The lioness was exhausted. Every bone in her body felt broken. Then Rehema threw her into the water, Imafu clawed at the water trying to escape, as she went fully under, she was pulled out again, and landed onto the earth. She looked at Rehema with hate in her heart.

"Your a cruel git you know that?" She hissed coughing up more blood.

Rehema squinted at her and hoisted her vioently to her feet.

"Your too kind." He snarled.

Laduma noriced Kutisha's ankle was rubbed raw and was now bleeding. Laduma started to lick Kutisha's ankle. She snarled in pain. Laduma stopped and smiled at her Kutisha couldn't believe that a few days ago she had been scared of him. This morning it had been different. Kutisha rubbed her head in Laduma's white mane he purred and licked her shoulder. Kutisha pushed him onto the floor. Laduma pulled her closer and kissed her firmly.

"Promise you won't chain me up again?" asked Kutisha eyeing her raw ankle.

"Only when I have to." Replied Laduma.

Kutisha sighed. She cared for him deeply but he would never be Hasini.

"I'm going hunting." She said quickly leaving the cave.

Her quest had begun
