I had always wondered how it would feel to be embraced, to have that warmth of another being seep into me. Skin to skin. I had guessed that it would feel like a warm bath after a long day of scavenging. A piece of bread fresh out of the claycooker. A cool blanket on a summer evening.
Saw it too. Daily. Babes bound to their mother's chest, fathers holding the little one's hands, kids tackling each other while playing. Some evenings the village would gather to dance arm in arm around the fire, singing and laughing, switching partners as they went. New couples huddled to the side giggling and whispering.
Those were my favourite to watch. And I would, from afar, out of the way in the trees. Quietly whistling along to the melody. Wondering. Fantasising, really. That perhaps one day I'd wake up in someone's arms. That warm embrace against my chest too.
But not like this.
My prayers to the heavens had been heard and I was being punished for my insolence. For even daring to wish for such a thing. Now that I
was
in someone's arms, I couldn't possibly feel anything less than utter fear.
My flesh having already been ripped apart by the beast next to me. Its limbs caging me under him to save the rest of me for later. I was lying sideways, his body pressed behind me. Layed there naked as he felt me up, my predator barely awoken from his slumber.
I shivered as he plucked my nipples, trying so hard not to move or make a sound. My shuddering breathing betraying me instead. I felt trapped under his horrifyingly strong body. Felt so good. Sending pleasurable jolts to my core.
Then he'd slither downwards. Make me suck my breath as his callused skin brushed over the welts on my ass and thighs, occasionally pushing in a little till I whimpered. Heard his breath deepen. As if he
liked
hurting me.
And then he'd go up to repeat. He was hard behind me. My heart was thrumming under his touch. I stiffened when his hand went between my legs, seeking my wet sex. He let out an appreciative sleepy groan. Doom me.
I told myself it was because of the touching prior to breakfast like before. My body simply expecting it, even after being mauled by him.
When he unexpectedly withdrew and left the bed, I exhaled. It was like I had forgotten how to breathe. He entered the bathroom. This was my chance to get out.
I winced as the slightest movements felt like stones being rammed into my muscles. I tried to bear it in an effort to slide off the enormous bed. When I got to my feet, I felt dizzy. I hadn't slept much last night, Kane's twitching scaring me to my core. Thought he was waking. Didn't know people did that as they fell asleep. Maybe it was just him.
Kane came back into the room. I hoped he would ignore me but he beckoned me to come to him. I did without a second thought. When he turned me around, he stiffened for a moment. Muttered a curse under his breath, staring at my bruised bottom and thighs. I wished I wasn't naked anymore. He turned me to face him.
"You've disappointed me." His eyes told me as much. A sense of shame washed over me. "I shouldn't have given into these so-called protocols and adjustment periods. I've left you undisciplined for too long. That's going to change."
I didn't want to disappoint him. I wanted to be good. So good he would never take me to that room again. His eyes shifted to my right cheek and my hand instinctively went to it. It felt swollen. "Fucking right on time." He looked vexed. "We're going to Jona today. It's a mandatory check-up."
By the time we had left the house, he had me dressed in the same dress I came in with, the fabric covering and scraping against my sore flesh.
Jona's face changed from pleasant to one of worry when we entered. She ushered us into a room after a stiff greeting. When she turned around, she looked visibly tense.
Without a sound, she went to a machine, pushed buttons which echoed through the room and gave her papers. She gathered them. Began reading through the papers, writing things down.
Then she walked over to Kane, handed them to him, barely looking at me. The silence was suffocating me. "What happened to your face, Kane?" she finally asked. I really wished she wouldn't have asked. The scratch on his cheek suddenly looked bigger and redder than it was. My hands felt clammy.
"Just a harmless accident," Kane answered. I couldn't read him but Jona clearly wasn't pleased. "Rhea, sit on the examination table," she said, turning to me.
My heart started to quicken. Would she beat me too? "She'll stand," Kane interjected. Quiet again. The air was thick around us as Jona lowered her stool to sit before me, her eyes shifting to my swollen cheek. I trembled.
"Hey sweetpie, this won't hurt a bit. Just like last time," she smiled reassuringly. I smiled back tentatively. She wasn't angry at me? She tilted my head to the side to check my right ear. I winced as her hand brushed my cheek.
"I want her nails trimmed short and-"
"You can wait outside for the next part," Jona snapped tightly. My muscles tensed. Did she have a death wish?
"I want to make sure she gets the best care."
"You'll wait outside, Sergeant." There was anger in her voice. I kept looking down. Didn't dare to meet Kane's gaze. He stood there for a while before turning without a word and left, slamming the door on his way out.
Jona wasted no time to undress me. I didn't move. When she went behind me, I heard her gasp. She didn't say anything and just stared for a while, assessing. Then came around. She took both my hands in hers, squeezing gently.
"Rhea honey," her breath shook a little. "You are protected by the law. I'm obligated to make a report. To remove you from his care. You'll be taken care of. You'll be safe."
