I was so exhausted. Man those girls are picky. I had to do there hair like 10 times before I got it to their liking. I was just happy to be in bed. Sadly just as I was falling asleep my presence is requested. "Ell......get down here this instance!!!!!" Soon I was standing in front of everyone. "Where have you been you ungrateful toad? We have called you for that last hour." I felt ashamed. "Pardon me mistress. What was your request?" She glared at me, "you were supposed to get us dinner and poor Mr. Pel had to go do it himself. You will be punished for this." I glanced over at John he didn't seemed annoyed with me but with the girls on his arms. I honestly felt bad for him. "My apologies Master Pel."

"Come with me right now!" Merna grabbed hold of my arm rather tightly and dragged me to what she call the pain room. She chained me up against the wall, stripped down my dress so my bare back was showing. I knew what she was doing, she was going to whip me. So my scars don't heal the end of the whip is a cross, vampires don't heal right when touched by a holy object. "How dare you embarrass us like that you little bitch. You will revive twice as many whips and now you will go two weeks without food. Look at you your pathetic, disgusting, worthless, your nothing!" Her words used to hurt before now I've come to believe them.

After an hour or so of whipping, my back was covered in marks, as well as my shoulders, legs, arms, and one lash of my face. I tried not to cry, I can't loose anymore blood. Merna unchained me, then slapped my face her claws scratched my face. I dropped to the floor, cowering with fear. "It seems your lesson has been learned. Now get up!" I got up pulled my dress on, and followed her out. No body was in the room thank the blood. Unexpectedly I was grabbed by the arm. "Merna I will be taking her, I need her assistance. She smiled kindly and said, "of course, and if she causes you any trouble feel free to punish her." John pulled me to his room, I looked around everything seemed in order. "Master what was it you needed me to do?" He turned me around, "your blood is going through your dress. Take your dress off." There was nothing perverted in his words. "Ell I said take your dress off, I'm going to check your back. I promise not to try anything else on you." I sighed and begun to unzip my dress. He pushed my hair over my shoulder to get a better look. I heard him gasp. "What happened? How are you not healed already?"

"Nothing I'm fine." I begun to put my dress back on when he stopped me. "This is nothing what did she do?" I sighed holding back the tears, "she whipped me twice as much and twice as hard. There are crosses at the end so my back will not heal properly."

"Lay down on the bed, on your stomach, I will be right back." I was confused, but did as told. When he returned he had some water and a cloth. He begun to clean my wounds. "Why are you being nice to me? Why are you doing this? I should be doing as you command, not you helping me." He sighed, "Ell, I'm not like other vampires. I treat my servants with care. Your different, you deserve to be treated better." I sat up but, covered my chest. "Sir, I'm fine. I have sealed with this for almost one hundred years. This is something I'm used to. You shouldn't help me, you should be looking down at me." I looked down, he lifted my chin up. "I will never do that."

I was captured by his eyes, he begun to lean in close. I pulled away, got off the bed and put my dress back on. "Master, I must go attend to my chores. If there is nothing else you need." He looked at me shocked. I left before he could make me stay. Was he about to kiss me?

I walked into Elliot. "Watch it!" "I'm sorry Master, please forgive me." He chuckled, "I'll forgive you, once I steal a kiss from you." He took me by surprise, slammed me into the wall. I screamed in pain, my back still hurt. He leaned in and kiss me, roughly. I tried to push him away, but he wouldn't move. His hands started to linger on my body. Finally he broke free. Well he was forced to, John pulled him off me. "Hey what's your problem?" John growled, "you are. Don't ever touch her." Elliot smirk, to test John Elliot slammed into me again. I screamed in pain. John pulled him off then punched him so hard Elliot was knocked cold. John shouted, "that will teach not to touch what's mine." I was scared now. I crawled into a corner and was shaking with fear.

John noticed where I was and slowly walked towards me. "Don't worry I won't hurt you." He reached a hand out, I took it. He smiled at me once I got to my feet. " you ok?" I nodded. I felt faint, I must have lost more blood. I must have fainted, all I remember was arms catching me, then waking up in my room. At first I thought it was a dream, until I felt the sudden pain in my back. So it wasn't a dream, then how did I get in here?
