Taken

Chapter O6

-Lily's P.O.V.-

I had been here for a while now, I don't know exactly how long because the only light I've ever seen is the hallway light and the light in 'my' room. There was no window in the room I was kept in so I really never knew what time of day it was, but I slept like it was night time all the time. It was my one escape away from this whole situation.

The only times I looked forward to is when Ryan visited me. No, I mean, I don't look forward to them. It could be anyone who doesn't hurt me and I'd semi-enjoy their company. Ryan hasn't laid a hand on me in a bad way yet, not even when Jackson's around but my hope aren't high that he never will hurt me. He's still my enemy.

I was going to go to sleep but I had kept track when Ryan visits and he should be coming pretty soon, he comes about three time a day to bring meals. So I waited, even though I wanted to sleep but I was really hungry so I couldn't, then right on Que the door opened showing Ryan. His hair was a wreck and he wore a striped polo with some jeans, he was always dressed so nicely. He actually offered to help me put my undergarments back on but I declined even though I hated just having a shirt covering me.

He flicked on the light and I was expecting to see him smiling down at me but this time anger filled his eyes but his face read sadness. In his left hand he held a belt, I backed into the wall behind me in fear.

"Ryan, what are you doi-"

"You're not allowed to speak!" Ryan yelled with so much anger in his voice I don't even think Jackson has ever screamed like this. Right when he spoke Ryan held the whip over his head and slapped it against my face. My cheek immediately started to bleed and the pain was indescribable, it hurt so much more than the back lashes I received from Jackson.

It's safe to say I as crying my eyes out but I clenched my jaw to keep from screaming because I really didn't want it to happen again. I looked up at Ryan trying to hide how much the lash hurt. Jackson came tumbling in and I didn't think I could be more terrified but I just had, by ten times.

"Again." Jackson ordered and Ryan nodded his head and looked back to me frowning before lashing me in the same cheek. This time I couldn't help but let out a cry. It wasn't loud and I was hoping Jackson didn't hear it but I wasn't so lucky.

"Again." Jackson demanded and Ryan once again nodded his head, but hesitantly this time. I clamped my eyes shut in fear of the pain to come but it never did, but I could hear the belt snap next to me. It still made me jump but not as much as contact to the skin would.

"That should be enough." Jackson said calmly apparently not catching what Ryan had just done and he walked out of the room leaving the door open. Ryan watched him and until another door slammed he rushed over to me throwing the whip behind him.

"Lily, I'm so sorry!" He whisper-yelled and touched the lashes he had made on my cheek and it stung so I shook my head meaning I didn't want him to touch me. I hadn't done that since we first met and I didn't speak, I don't plan on speaking for a while. "He made me...I'm so sorry..." He said looking down at his lap and clenched his fists together in his lap before looking up at me again with hurt in his eyes. He looked so guilty and regretful I couldn't bare to look him because then I would forgive him.

"Please speak to me." He begged but I didn't move and he sighed and reach into his pocket and unwrapped a cereal bar, I guess this was the meal I was looking forward to. He unwrapped it and held it to my mouth, he had to feed me because of these blasted chains. As much as I wanted to decline him I was starving so I took a bite and saw a slight smile tug at his lips and I just rolled my eyes. I finished that thing in seconds is what it seemed like.
