Chapter 100: New Machines
I had been stuck on this table for the past two days. I hadn't been given food or water which my body had grown accustomed to being given. It would just have to once again learn how to survive off the little food that we had been given before we found our mate. My whole body was sore and I was sure that I was going to have a vast new collection of scars on my body. That monster and his men had 'played' with me for five hours before we even go to the new instruments that he had bought. As it turned out the devil was assisting him because he had found things that I wished had never been invented. For two whole hours, he had tested out new blades and machines on my unwilling body. Some of the blades were made to tear skin and then cause the cut to either freeze or burn and the combination of the two sensations was horrible. One of the machines he had bought was rigged to fit my hands and slowly added pressure to them cracking the bone inside while sending small needles plunging deep into my skin at erratic intervals. I was exhausted having not slept in two days trying to find any sort of way to escape this hell hole, but I couldn't find a way out. 'Master' was being much more careful with the guards now and never left my door unattended. The fact that I had been taken one didn't sit well with him and he wouldn't let it happen to me once again. I wished he would just forget about it and give me some way to be able to break out of here. The table was cold and soothed my battered flesh and fresh bruises. I was only allowed to wear a bra and a pair of boy shorts which left me almost completely exposed for whatever that bastard wanted to do to me. Thankfully he had just left me on the table or hanging from the poles so far and I hadn't been forced to learn about the bed sitting in the corner. Constantly taunting me with the thoughts of the nightmares and trauma it would cause. The door clicked and I knew that it had to mean he was coming back from wherever he had been. He had left me in here alone for three hours and I'm pretty sure he turned down the thermostat just to make sure I was freezing. However, it had helped my burning swelling body find some relief before it decided to start shaking and making my teeth chatter from the cold. "Hello Pet, I hope you were able to get some rest from our last session. Today we are going to start working on those pesky memories of yours because they've gotten in the way of my fun. I really hate having you yell out for your parents and friends to help you it's rather obnoxious so we'll have to fix that." His face was calm and there was no smirk lurking there. I wasn't sure what that meant or what was going to happen, but I knew that I wouldn't forget my family as easily as I did the last time. "I won't let you take them away from me, not when I just got them back. You can do whatever you to do to me, but I won't let them go. I will hold onto them with all that I have and I will not let you win." I spat at him trying to be as defiant as one could when strapped at every angle to a metal table. "Oh, I want you to remember your family and friends sweetheart. I want you to remember them and every vivid detail of the things they did to you. Because it's going to help me get what I want, help you get to the point where I am the only person you could ever trust. I'm going to use the very thing you want most against you and you're going to do it because you won't forget them." Then that familiar light grew in his eyes and the door swung open and several men brought in monitors and carts with all sorts of wires on them. "It took me some time to figure out what we were going to do about this outside problem, but I think I finally found a solution that we can all be happy with. After all, if I'm happy your happy isn't that right Darling?" I snarled up at him but couldn't do anything more thanks to the restraints. "Don't worry, we'll start back into your lessons as soon as we finish this first session. I'll give you a half an hour break being the kind and giving man that I am before we start on lesson one. You remember it don't you? I know that it made quite the impression on you and is always my favorite to teach." I was starting to get nervous now, I was really stuck here. I was going to have to go through the lessons again and try not to break but how was I going to do that? The men set the screens so that they surrounded the table and began to pull different equipment out of various carts. They all looked menacing and I knew that they were built to cause me pain to make me hurt. I had no idea what they did, but I was already trying to mentally prepare myself for what was to some. Several diodes were attached to my skin causing different screens to light up and show my vital signs. Some showed things that I didn't understand and I kept trying to figure out what they meant. It was really just a way to distract myself from the terror that I was beginning to feel about not knowing what was going to happen to me. "I missed you so much little girl, I don't intend on letting that ever happen again. So to ensure that you no longer feel like staying with strangers again I've learned a few things. How to make it so that those you see as your saviors….will become the very people that you fear most. That I will be the one person you will ever feel truly safe with." He explained running one of his perfectly manicured nails down my cheek and across my neck. "Now I think it is time for us to begin this procedure. It should last about two hours at least for this first session, we wouldn't want your heart giving out would we?" He whispered in my ear. I couldn't move as he pulled something off a cart and fitted it over my head. It blocked my eyes and fitted my head perfectly, one of the many things that this sick man had made especially for me. I had no idea what this was supposed to do but I was scared to find out. I could hear muffled voices from inside the mask, but it was hard to make out everything they were saying. "One hour…..audio stimulation….permanent damage….intense….visual later….don't stop….should work….never go back," I had no idea what the snippets meant but I was starting to wonder if they were just going to leave me with this thing on my head. If that was the case I could definitely make it through whatever was going to happen without any issues. The room grew quiet and I tried to once again figure out what was going on. "Elinn? Elinn where are you?" I hear the voice I have been longing to hear for two days. The voice of my loving and caring mate, Carter. "Oh you're safe now Elinn, your safe with me. However, you've been a bad girl while you've been away. You let another man touch you and didn't even resist." His voice turned angry in seconds and I was confused. "Carter, I would never do something like that!" I cried out, but I felt a blade run across my skin. "I only do this because I love you," Carter whispered and then the dagger cut deep into my stomach. "Enjoy the next two hours," Master whispered in my ear and then I screamed out in pain
