Whore let the man tie her to the bed, concern only starting when she looked at the knots he was using. The spread gave her no slack, making it dangerous if he decided to whip her or use some other tactic. She needed to be extra careful in struggling.
Her concern turned to panic when she saw the man pull a syringe from his bag, a small vial palmed in his hand. He filled the needle nearly full and moved to her arm. Whore began to struggle in earnest, knowing that screaming was pointless but doing it anyway.
Darkness overcame her quickly after the prick on her arm, her limbs growing heavy and she lost consciousness.

When she finally came awake, nothing about her surroundings was familiar. She cast about looking for something she knew, something she could draw comfort from.
The man who had tied her up sat in a chair in front of her. She looked at him and then back to her surroundings. Her feet felt strange in the thick carpet.
"Welcome to your new home." the man spoke and drew her attention back to him. His words had the opposite effect of calming her.
Whore began to breathe quickly, short breaths. Panicked breaths. Not knowing what else to do, she sank to her knees and knelt down on the floor. Even though she disliked the feel of the carpet on her body, she hugged her knees to comfort herself.
"Get up." the man gave as a command. Whore didn't move, comforting herself. "I said get up."
The man reached down and grabbed a handful of Whore's hair, pulling her from her kneeling position, but finding her limp. Even a hard slap across the face elicited no response. Getting angry he let go of Whore and let her slump back to the floor, watching her put herself in the same kneeling position.
"Look, I want to give you sunlight." he told her, pulling back a heavy curtain and letting a beam of light slice the room. Whore cringed from the beam as it neared her. "Tell me what else you want! I have good food, good clothes, access to daylight and anything else you want."
"I want my Master. Please may I have my Master." Whore whispered only to realize that for the first time in as long as she could remember, there was not the familiar weight on her throat. Her hands came up to search for her collar and found it empty. "My collar. Please, Sir. I must have that collar. My Master gave it to me. Please..." Whore's words dissolved into sobs.
"I am your Master now." he demanded.
"I do not choose you for my Master. I want my Master." Whore insisted, her voice still a whisper. "My Master will find me. My Master will rescue me. Return me to my Master. Give me my collar back, please Sir."
The man grabbed her by the hair and pulled her to a chain, hooking a studded collar around her neck. Whore sank to her knees and then further down. Seeing her, he struck her over and over until she lay on the floor, not having uttered a sound during her beating. Furious he stormed out.

For three days Whore didn't move. She refused any food left for her and only sipped at the water. She didn't answer any further questions the man gave her and never made a sound when he beat her.
On day twelve Whore heard commotion outside the room she was in. After the last few days she didn't look up. As she noise stopped, one thing caught her ears. Footsteps.
She knew those footsteps.
Finally looking up she almost burst into tears. "Master." she whispered as Chase made it to her.
"There you are, slave." Chase said as he looked down at her. "Did you think you could get away?"
"Master, no! I never..." she protested only to be cut short by a backhand. In her weakened state she collapsed on the floor, tears now free in her eyes. Not only had she been taken, Master thought she had tried to get away.
She sobbed until she fell asleep.

Her eyes opened with three blinks, trying to see her surroundings. The first thing she noticed was the smell. Bleach with something she could never place. What was important to her...it smelled like home. She was home.
