ATHENA POV

I don't know how long I've been left alone in the torture chamber.

Theo left to attend to Emma who 'needed' attending too.

I shudder at the thought of them going at it. Like wild beasts. Not because I was jealous, NO WAY in HELL was I jealous of them two.

But -.

I shudder at the fact that those two have someone on the side other then who they are actually doing it with.

Matt...

Me...

I was beginning to see why my mother fled this realm to live in the mortal one.

How Matt could after all that time...

I hadn't been able to sleep, eat, or even breath properly since I arrived here.

I could slowly feel own self slipping away.

If what Theo said was true and that he could somehow use Louie  to get Heleli to come out...

He was just about to tie my hands to the pegs across this wooden table to bend me over it and rape me all over again, and again when Emma demanded to see him. Something about their son...

Tristan?

From what little I learned about this place, I find out that Theo has been keeping himself busy after Heleli killed him back in the mortal realm.

I closed my eyes and put my hands against the side of my face. I wanted to scream. I wanted to cry. But I couldn't. Theo took all that from me in just a few short days of being in this chamber.

Had it been days?

Weeks?

Months?

I DON'T KNOW!

Luther does bring me bread and water from time to time. Only once a day though. By the next day I'm still starving, and wanting nothing more then a cold glass of ice water instead of food.

I'm nothing but skin and bone at this point.

One blow in the gut from Theo and my bones will break by impact.

The only silver lining to this was knowing my family and loved ones were safe back in the mortal realm.

Eve doesn't have to submit to Emma if Emma doesn't know about her.

Louie at least has something of me that I had left behind for him to take care of.

At least I don't have to worry about Theo reading my thoughts about my loved ones while he's out.

But I know when he gets back he'll want to....

I swallowed hard and heard the chamber doors open slowly making my eyes snap open.

Lyra came in, with keys in her hands and a tray of food and a glass of water. She sits it down in front of me and I quickly grab the cup of water and drained it in two seconds, not touching what looked like some sort of mystery meat.

"You really ought to eat something too." She tells me, in a kind voice.

I looked at her, blankly, but say nothing.

She looked so pretty, much like I imaged a fairy godmother would look like. Elegant and kind. Not so old looking and not to young either. Middle aged maybe? I dunno how age works here in the demon realm.

How she ending up working for Theo I hadn't a clue.

"I -. I would but -." I began, and looked down at the meat and poked at it with a plastic fork that came with the tray of food, (I wasn't allowed the GOOD silverware until I LEARN to OBEY the rules). "I can't keep any of the food here, down..." I said, my voice cracking.
