Chapter 6 Maria's POV
This was not what I had in mind for a new outfit I would've gladly kept my ratty old clothes if I knew what was going on in Burnaby's head. That bastard! It was useless for me to struggle against the chains he put me in but I knew I had to at least try instead of suffer this kind of embarrassment.
Soon I saw the drapes covering my modesty fall away onto the floor of the grand stage and my fear and anger grew more intense as I struggled harder to break free. I knew I looked as wild as Burnaby wanted me to look but I didn't care all I could think of was escape from the humiliation. I stopped for a moment and noticed three people that were just standing there in shock rather than cheering with the rest of the crowd. As I stilled the crowd quieted down and marveled at me.
I was snapped back to myself when Burnaby whipped my back. My back arched and I howled as my knees crumpled underneath me as I heard Burnaby repeat his request to me.
"Look to the sky wench! Do it before I whip you again!"
I blinked back my tears and held in my scream when I was whipped again for looking down instead of up. I don't understand why he would want me to do that when nothing was going to-
I froze and my mind went blank I saw what looked like a full moon for the first time. It was breath taking and I felt energy surge into my body this had to be the best feeling in the world. There was no feeling of pain from the multiple whippings that Burnaby gave me I didn't even notice he was doing it. All I knew was that I was gaining power I never knew I had before and it was thanks to this wonderful moon. Suddenly now I'm sleepy not my body but my mind I could feel myself slipping into unconsciousness I didn't want to not when I felt this amazing but I couldn't help it and I fell into darkness.
