Break me free | Kenji kishimoto

Chapter five

‼️⚠️TW abuse, vomiting⚠️‼️

                                Aurora's pov

As I'm on my way to my father I try to steady my breathing. My heart rate is going faster than a bullet train. This is nothing that hasn't happened before, you'll be fine. I think to myself.

My bodyguard Kenji normally does some other tasks when he is not with me, so hopefully when I come back he will not be there.

I approach the door and hesitate before twisting the knob.

"Aurora! Come sit down." Anderson says, with a fake smile.

I walk over to the table and sit across from him. The room is small with a stone floor and walls and has a one-way mirror.

"Leave us." He looks at his two guards standing by the door.

His stare is burning into my face. I can hear my heart beating in my ears. I probably look like a pathetic scared mouse but, who wouldn't?

He walks around the table and leans in close to my ear.

"You make one sound and Aaron gets it, oh also, happy birthday.' smack. He grins. I feel a sting on my cheek. I flinch slightly.

"Stand up. You know the drill." He orders and takes out a whip. "You're lucky I'm feeling generous today."

God help me.

Smack. My shoulders are now burning.
Slap. The sides of my torso are on fire.
Whack. I jerk forward. I can feel the blood running down my spine.

He shoves me to the floor and kicks me in the stomach repeatedly, I curl into myself, trying to seek protection with my arms. I can feel the tears stinging my eyes.

Then I feel a sharp pinch in my neck.
Did he just inject me with something?

"Stop crying dammit. It doesn't matter anyway, you won't remember." He laughs.

I start to feel funny. Huh? What does he mean?

"Leave. I don't want to see your face." He demands, and gestures to the door.

I stand up but woah. What is even happening right now? I can't even look straight. Everything is spinning. Where's the door again?

I need to get back to my room.

My legs suddenly feel like jelly as I'm walking down the corridors. God I just want to sleep right now. It feels like someone is pouring molten lava on my back and twisting a knife in my stomach.

What did I do to deserve this? Can't a girl have fun on her birthday without getting tortured?

No apparently not.

Everything is getting blurrier as I walk through the halls. I'm gripping on to the walls and stumbling over my own feet and the carpet and everything is too overwhelming right now. I'm feeling hot and cold all at the same time. One second I'm nauseous and the other I think I might pass out, why am I so out of breath all of a sudden?

I squint and finally see my door. Thank god. I look around to see if any guard is near but I don't think I see any at least.

I open the door and stumble in. I take a quick glance in the mirror and the back of my shirt is fully covered in blood. My face is a collage of the same handprint and my hair looks like it hasn't been managed for years.

I feel bile rise from the back of my throat. I rush to the bathroom and vomit. Thankfully making it to the toilet bowl in time.

I suddenly feel so achy. My grip on the toilet bowl loosens and I feel so lightheaded but so heavy at the same time. I slide to the floor. I can't feel my legs anymore. My eyes are closing. I just want the pain to stop.

"Arie?"

I look up to see Kenji's blurry, horrified face.

I can't even speak right now. Why didn't I feel him coming?

He kneels down and searches my face for answers.

"What happened? Who did this to you?" His tone sounds worried and almost angry.

"Not allowed." I breathe out.

That seems to be all I can think of right now. How if I tell anyone I would get in so much trouble or worse, he would do something to Aaron or Kenji.

"What, what do you mean?" He inquires.

But when I look at him again with tears in my eyes I think he understands that he needs to help me first. 

                                Kenji's pov

She's lying on the floor covered in blood. How did she even end up in this situation?

I put a towel under her head and go and get a first aid kit and kneel back down.

"Can I take your shirt off?" I ask.

She looks at me with teary eyes as if she doesn't want me to see, but then hesitantly nods her head.

I sit her up so she leans on me and peel the white shirt off of her, leaving her in her bra. I gasp at her back. It's streaked with red gashes and massive cuts lining all the way down her torso.

"Is it that bad?" She whispers.

"It could be worse." Could it? "But it's gonna sting like hell when I disinfect it."

I take the disinfectant and put it on the cotton. When I dab the first cut she flinches and inhales sharply. I offer my hand and use the other to keep dabbing. She takes it and tries to smile as a thank you. I bandage her carefully and when I glance at her I see her eyes drooping.

Once I'm done I ask her, "Is there anything else?"

She nods and turns more towards me showing her stomach. It has hues of blue, purple, green and yellow. I dig it the first aid kit and find an ointment.

"Lie back." I whisper, too scared to make any loud sound.

She lays back on my chest, and holds my hand again. I apply the ointment, once I'm done, her grip on my hand loosen and I notice she has fallen asleep.

I pick her up bridal style and carry her to her bed. Once I place her down she opens her eyes slightly and grabs my forearm.

"Thank you." She mumbles, then drifts off again.

"Anytime Arie." I walk out the door, still processing what the fuck just happened.
