Chapter 28

Reid stood up and moved a few paces away and motioned for me to open the door.

“You’re the slave, you’re the one that’s meant to get that.” He was gloating at the new status that he himself had given me, forcing me to do shitty trivial stuff for him that he was more than capable of doing himself.

I attempted to get on my knees, pains shooting through my body in protest of the movement. But I had already decided that I was going to be stubborn and that I would not let him break me.

After several attempts and failing, and at least ten long agonising minutes, I was eventually able to stand up straight in front of Reid proudly. I hovered for a beat to stare at him, studying his reactions; reactions such as his temple starting to pulse as his frustration grew, his jaw now tense with a slight tic, and the sadistic smile had completely vanished.

Flaunting my new composure and the fact that he had not broken me this time, I answered the door hoping that the person on the other side was still going to be there.

There in front of me stood the most fragile-looking female wolf that could not have been much older than me. Her eyes were downcast, usually a sign of respect towards superior positions in the pack, but this woman doing it made me feel uneasy. The pure look of misery mixed in with pain as she shuffled from one foot to the other had my heart aching for her, and curious as to what had happened. She wore a fifties style dress that was tight around the breasts, then floated outwards but only reached halfway down her thighs; way too short to be comfortable doing any of the jobs that she would have to do around here. Looking at the ghastly sight of her made me feel destitute, empty. She was pale like she had not seen the sun in a very long time, her dress and flimsy plimsoles were filthy, her face was tired and hollow as if she had tried to close herself off from all the abuse she had been put through, trying to make her time here that little bit bearable.

She tightly gripped the long handlebar of a stainless-steel trolley that was laden with different foods, all giving off a delicious aroma. My mouth began to salivate, and my stomach growled loudly, reminding me that it had been too long since I had last eaten something.

“Bring the food in then, you stupid bitch.” The naked girl still inside Reid’s bedroom had screeched out in her whiney voice, grating at every nerve ending and making me want to somehow close my ears.

I grabbed the trolley from the poor omega that was still stood in the hallway with fear radiating from every pore. I thanked her, closed the door and walked over to the coffee table in the lounge area. The chain pulled at the collar around my throat, forcing it to dig into my skin and hurt because of the weight, and clink as it moved across the hard floor.

“Leave it there and go back to your corner. You’re not worthy of food like this, so you get the scraps that are left.” Reid rudely pushed me aside away from the trolley and abruptly ended my hopes of finally getting something to eat.

“Yes, sir.” Miserably, I dragged my chain back over to where I had a blanket laid on the ground, choosing to try and get a little bit more sleep before Reid and his side-bitch decided to go for round two.

Completely exhausted, my stomach cramping and growling aggressively with the start of starvation, and still with the remnants of pain from Reid’s earlier unspeakable acts, I basically collapsed onto the floor. With all my energy spent, I could not even adjust my position to something more comfortable before my eyes drooped, my breathing slowed, and I was out like a light yet again.

~☆~

I got to wake up slowly this time. The room was darker and cooler, so I was assuming that it was now nighttime. As the curtains fluttered in a heavier breeze than earlier today, I saw glints of a gorgeously breath-taking full moon. I stayed sitting halfway up, just entranced by the beauty outside, the last twenty-four hours temporarily forgotten.

As the minutes wore on, I eventually became aware of a sloppy noise coming from the darkness somewhere. I furrowed my eyebrows as I concentrated when the memories of Reid and his bimbo hit me like a ton of bricks and I realised what that noise was; they were snogging again, playing a round of tonsil tennis.

The cramping in my chest and stomach slowly returned, reminding me of the betrayal of my mate.  Suddenly, pure agony tore through me and the girl on the bed groaned from the beast's penetration. I curled back up on the floor, readying myself for a long and torturous few minutes, only, it was not just a couple of minutes this time, it was almost a full hour of them rolling around, changing positions. At one point, she was on top riding his dick, her tits bouncing freely as she came. Then she was trying to suck as much of his engorged dick as possible, gagging as it hit the back of her throat, her eyes watering and was struggling to breathe through the substantial amount of meat in her mouth, before they were finally spent once again.

By the time they had climaxed enough times and finished, I had gotten too hot and completely stripped down in hopes of the cool night air soothing me, but it barely helped. The pain had become utterly unbearable; I wanted to reach inside and somehow tear the mate bond from me to get some kind of relief. I tore at my skin as I bit through the endless nightmare of torture.

Once they were done and had eventually fallen asleep, I lay there in the dark, still, unmoving and drenched in sweat. On my lowly blanket I was miserable, thinking about how my life had changed from happy and hopeful of finding my mate, only to find out he was nothing more than a piece of shit.

I did not get any more sleep. I could not rest properly through all the aches and my mind racing.

Eventually, many hours had passed of me just staring at the ceiling. So much time, that I had begun to feel cold; a chill settling my achy and burning body, whilst they cuddled in bed feeling the warmth of each other's flesh, oblivious to any of my discomfort.

The sun rising outside cast a beautiful streaky light around the room, erasing all the shadows and the things that go bump in the night. And still, I lay there regretting all my choices that led me to here.

Shortly after the sun started playing peek-a-boo, an alarm sharply rang out in the once silent room, stirring the occupants of the comfy bed.

With some grumbling, an arm snaked out from the sheets to hit the thing that had disturbed their slumber.
