Chapter 30

The lights were turned on and I woke up feeling very very drained, I didn't sleep but passed out from exhaustion multiple times. A bunch of men came down talking loudly but didn't acknowledge my presence and just went to do stuff, I couldn't figure out what because I felt so drained.

My clothes were dirty and bloody and my muscles were aching badly, I couldn't sit straight in the cage or stretch my legs and arms. My mind was fuzzy like I was dreaming, or just watching myself do things without feeling them myself, it was so weird. I was hoping my magic was still mine and he didn't take it from me. Not that without magic I wouldn't kill him.

My father came down, walked to the working men, and started shouting at them before he walked over to me.

"Goodmorning sweetheart, hope you slept well," he said to me standing in front of the cage bowing down to have his face closer to mine.

He definitely aged in the years I was gone, he looked like around 55/60 and it made me wonder how he was still doing this, shit he could almost go with retirement and he was killing people for money. I couldn't answer, my mind just couldn't think of anything. Like my brain went numb.

"You must be asking 'oh no, why do I feel so drained' yeah well it's a little design Hydra gave me, it works terrific!" he said happily. So he did make me feel this way, what did he do? drug me? "You won't have a nice time today, and seeing your boyfriend won't find you, you won't be happy for a very very long time," he said smiling. What did he mean he won't fin me? was he dead?

How bad I wanted to react to him, ask questions, make him explain everything, I couldn't even move normally, if I tried to talk I would embarrass myself. He had men coming and they opened the cage and ordered me to crawl out of it, my muscles were weak and I crawled out of the cage but couldn't stand up on my own. 2 men dragged me up again and I felt how sore my body was, and nothing worked like it was supposed to.

"You don't have that a whore mouth anymore now have you?" my father spat when he held my cheeks with his hand and he dropped my face again. I was angry, so angry and scared at the same time, I wanted to leave, to kill him, and destroy everything he build.

'Why can't I do anything normal?'

My clothing was removed until my underwear and I was cold and sweating at the same time. I wanted to kill everyone the moment they touched me but I couldn't be uncomfortable because of that right now, I wasn't focused on that, it just slipped my mind that was happening.

I looked at my body and saw that the illusion was gone probably because he took my magic and I started to tear up hating myself, and him, I was just so angry and sad. My father looked at my body and smiled.

"I'm sure you deserved every scar," he said coldly and he walked away from me. How did he dare say that to me, he didn't know shit, but maybe he was right, what did I ever do right in my life? I was 21 and still wasn't... free.

The men dragged my ass to another part of the room further away, my father following me and other men waiting at a chair. I was thrown on the chair that was in the basement or room or whatever and they strapped me down to it. 

It was all one big space, and in one of the corners I was trapped and this was more towards the door to the staircase. Closer to the exit. There was no way I could move and the men didn't even have to hold me so I would escape so weak was my body.

"I must say how happy I am to have you back to myself, I didn't like selling you to hydra, but they got control over you and we have a good business bond now, I wish you could tell me how much you liked it there," he said smiling and I groaned wanting to scream at him with hurt in my eyes but he just smiled at me.
