Just a Little Bit of Hope

CHAPTER THREE

Today's the day that we get to shower. We get to shower and have a change of clothes once every two weeks. We only get five minutes in the shower each and it's by hoses but I could care less.
"Line up ladies!" A voice demands.
We line up and start taking our scraps that are considered our clothes off. This is the drill every time we get to shower. We have to take our clothes and put them in a waiting basket. We're wolves we're use to nudity but most of us still try to hide ourselves from the leering men waiting on the sidelines. Although most of them have seen us naked anyway.
I make Breyon wear his big nasty shirt until we're all the way up to the line with the basket. These men are sick. They're not right in the head. Not one bit. When there's no other choice but for Breyon to lose his shirt I pick him up and hold him close to me trying to shield him as much as possible.
Finally it's our turn and we hurry to get underneath the freezing water. I wash Breyon first as fast as I can. I scrub his hair and get all the dirt off his little body as best as I can with our hands. Then I do the same for myself. I just finished rinsing my hair when a menacing man yells to switch.
I pick Breyon back up before going to the line to wait for our measly scraps of clothing. Breyon is shivering so I hug him closer to me.
Finally it's our turn and I grab another long shirt for Breyon and one for myself before hurrying to my cell not wanting any trouble from the guards.
Maya is already there when we get there. I quickly braid my hair before braiding Maya's.
I just finish braiding Maya's hair when a loud voice calls out, "Oy you!"
I look around questioningly and my eyes meet the man that I spit on the other night.
He gives me a leer and licks his lips while a menacing smirk takes place on his face.
"Hey sugar tits. How about I take you for a ride huh?" He says.
I shudder and shake my head while giving him a nasty glare as I pull Breyon behind me.
The mans eyes flash with anger.
"You can either come with me or I'll take that pretty little girl in there instead. Or even your little mutt. Either will do." He snarls.
Maya is shaking in fear as I grab Breyon and hand him to her.
I prepare for him to open the door for me to go out when Breyon starts yelling, "No! Momma! No!"
The man grabs me roughly by the arm as he drags me out of the cell.
"Shut the fuck up boy!" The man yells but Breyon continues to cry.
I put my finger to my lips; our secret signal to be quiet and that everything was going to be alright. He still has tears flowing but he has quieted down. I give him one last look before the man drags me away.
"You're a wildcat honey. Nice and ripe for the taking." He says almost like he's expecting me to add on to the conversation.
He leads me down to an unoccupied room but stops to talk to a husky man on the way.
"Hey Burt! Did you hear?" The husky man says.
"No what's going on?" The man who has me in his grip, well I guess Burt says.
"Alpha Vincent is getting a new general. He's suppose to be crueler and run a tighter ship. Suppose to be able to keep these bitches in line." The other man says with a laugh as if we are toys and not actual human beings.
"Really? Who is he?" Burt asks curiously.
"They say his name is Grayson Keith. The Alpha of the rogues and Vincent's right hand man." The man speaks about the other man as if he were a God.
"Well shit I hope things aren't going to change around here. Me and sugar here have so much fun together don't we sugar?" Burt says as he runs a finger down my arm as he's practically salivating at the mouth.
"I doubt it man. I bet he just joins in all our fun. Speaking of which can I join in yours? She's a hot one." The husky man exclaims, giving me a look that makes me shudder.
"Yeah you got that right and she's great in the sac but sorry man I just want it to be me and her if you know what I mean." Burt says with a chuckle.
"Oh I know man. Maybe next time." The man says with a gleam in his eye.
Burt doesn't say anything before giving the man a nod and dragging me to an open room.
He throws me down on the mattress on the floor none to gently. As soon as he comes close I try kicking him but I'm too weak. He catches my leg and pulls me closer.
"You like it rough huh bitch?" Burt growls out.
He chains my arms then my legs to the handcuffs welded on the floor. I kick and wiggles but I'm only hurting
myself.
"Yeah baby fight me. Yeah you go baby." Burt says as he pulls down his pants and brings himself close to my face.
"Pleasure me." He says as he strokes himself.
I just turn my head and keep wiggling.
Burt turns my head back to him and tells me to, "Open your fucking mouth!"
I refuse again which results in him giving me punch after punch to the gut. With my mouth open on a groan he surges forward. By now I'm crying uncontrollably. You can guess what happens next. Every time I did something wrong or told him no I earned slaps and punches all across my body. By time he's finally done with me I'm too weak to stand. He slings me over his shoulder like I'm a sack of potatoes and takes me back to the cell.
I hear Maya and Breyon crying as soon as I come into view.
Burt opens the cell and all but throws me to the dirty floor.
The cell closes with a bang and as soon as it does Maya rolls me over onto my back.
"Oh Hadley what did he do?" Maya whispers as tears clog her throat.
"I'm okay." I whisper hoarsely.
"Momma!" Breyon cries. He wraps his arms around my neck and squeezes me to the point of pain but I just squeeze him right back. He buries his head in my neck and continues to cry as I run my fingers through his hair.
All I feel is pain, but I know things will get better, I just have to have just a little bit of hope.
