Chapter 24

I opened my eyes to look into the brick ceiling as I lay on what I presumed was my bed. Judging from the scent and sight that was laid before I figured that I was still in my cell room.

The memory of what happened before I passed out running through my mind as the sound of a wheel turning and chains being pulled filled my ears. The sound was hard to find as I heard echoes. Sometimes it sounded as if it was fading yet sometimes it sounded so near.

"Awake at last"

I turned my head warily to the side. I felt weak and dizzy and felt a bit nauseous on the inside as I felt like I would soon throw up my breakfast.

On second thought

I never really had any.

I looked at my master who seemed occupied with whatever he was doing yet he found the time to look over at me smiling from time to time as he met my gaze. He was like an eager child awaiting to show me his master piece but both he and I knew that that master piece would be my next torture.

"H-How long have i-"

"Been sleeping, I would say more of a nap, you only past out for an hour"

I blinked. That's all…an hour…I felt like I was out for a day.

I watched him move to e something in his hand. What was he doing. My vision was a bit blurred everything slightly distilled but the yellow golden light on the left corner of my room where the wheel turning sound was coming from was quite noticeable in my bad sight. I grimaced at the feeling of something close to my skin then suddenly it was lightly pressed against me and I jumped..

It was hot.

Very hot.

I screamed out loudly in anguish and pain. As If having my body cut open and fondled with wasn't enough but being strapped down and branded with hot metal was more pleasing?

The pain was horrible but it did stir the pleasure within me causing me to slightly enjoy it. But this was far from pleasure it was closer to pain.

I felt him pull my hands free from the bed them opened the chain that was wrapped around them. I sat up looking at the mark that was on my inner thigh it

was already beginning to fade and I was feeling much better than before.

"Are you breathing okay?"

I nodded

"Feeling uneasy"

I shook my head

"How intriguing not only can you heal yourself but you re-grew most of your organs"

I blinked.

The more this man tortured me the more inhuman I felt. I shrugged and watched him undo my feet and I rubbed them together as soon as he was done. I turned around sitting on the edge of the bed looking down at the floor.

How many times had it been? How many times had I been looking at this floor after my torture had ended? But of course how could I lose counting. Adding this one to the others. I've went through 345 different tortures. Yet…Yet….

After witnessing something like this I doubt your daughter will be able to recover Sir

"What are you saying? At least remove her entire memory to get her out of this state!"

"Her entire memory, Mr. Collonae. Your taking away your daughters entire past and childhood if you do that"

"I don't care! Look at her! L-l-look at her eyes- She's-She's not even in this world anymore"

Still….These memories won't leave

I can't run any longer

The only reason I did this

Was to try and forget this all

Those years of silence

Those years of reflection

Those years of trying to move on

Those years of bad memories

Still all of this remains in my head

I only took the chance with this deal to see if he could erase my past. I only wanted to do this contract to dissolve my memory somewhere.

"Sebastian…"

I heard the shuffling stop as I turned around to see him looking at me pausing at the cell gate.

"Yes" He said resting the padlock on the grill

"The contract….I don't want to do it anymore"
