Broken

Why now?

"Open your damn eyes, I know your are conscious." I lifted my heavy eyelids, and was met with Mack's deadly glare. "You planned to escape with that pussy on legs, even after I warned you what I would do." I smirked despite the fact that my head throbbed. "A low life like you wouldn't understand our relationship, you seem to be confused and think I'm afraid of you." He stepped so close that I felt his breath on my face. "Tread lightly, because you don't want me to act out some of the thoughts running through my mind right now." I glared at him and said "you have already acted out your thoughts before, doing it again makes no difference". My heart stopped as the smile I hated spread across his lips. "The difference this time is you might not be alive when I'm done with you. Don't try to tell me your not afraid because I can see it in your eyes, it's what gets me going". I spat in his face, and said "you make my skin crawl, you disgusting pig!". He stepped back and wiped his eyes, "you slut! I'm going to force you into submission even if I have to break every bone in you body!". I felt his hands around my bare throat, (he must have taken the collar off). I felt myself slipping into unconsciousness when I heard "I suggest you stop now, while you still have fingers". Immediately the pressure on my throat was gone and I was left coughing up a storm. I rubbed at my throat softly, knowing that I'll have bruises in the morning. I looked up and my eyes widened Winters and Marcus stood in doorway. I hadn't seen either of them since the day I came here ( not that seeing them was anything good). Winter had on a black suit, with his hair pulled back from his ghost like face, his pale blue eyes were intimidating. Standing there some where around 6'2 he looked like he was ready to kill. Marcus on the other hand who probably only measured around 5'7 was standing with his glaze to the floor, his hair was a mess like always and the only thing that didn't seem too big for him was his black pants. The shirt he had on slipped off his shoulder and he would have to pull it back in place. His fragile stance made it seem like he was ready to bolt any minute and the only thing that seem to keep him in place was the fact that his hand was intertwined with one of Winters. 'They must be together' I thought to myself. Mack licked his lips before he turned to face them, I would have thrown up but there was nothing in my system to hurl. "What the hell do you want Winters, I paid for my time with this boy." Winters's glaze fall on me for a moment and I swear his eyes softened before his intimidating glare fall a upon Mack. "Just because you paid for time with him doesn't mean you can do whatever you want". A tick formed in Mack's jaw as he says "he disobeyed me and tried to escape, I was only going to punish him."Winters seem to be bored with their conversation as he said "you are not the only client that is upset because of the escape and attempted escape and you certainly won't touch a hair on his head if you value your time here, you see the problem is that this boy is not exclusive to you alone, there are men richer than you that are willing to pay almost triple what you are paying just for an hour with him". I could tell Mack was angry because of the way his fist opened and closed at his side. But you didn't have to be a genius to know that Mack wouldn't last five minutes in a fight with Winters. So instead of starting a physical fight, Mack settled for throwing insults. "Why the hell is Marcus here with you, doesn't he have a job to do?". My eyes immediately locked onto Marcus and he seem to want to shrink into himself. I could tell Winters picked up on that without even turning to look at Marcus because he gave his hand a gentle squeeze. I glanced at Winters and swallowed. His eyes seem to snap fire all at once "why Marcus is here and with me is of none of your concern, just know that I will be watching you closely and I suggest that you don't hurt him more than you already have, also you can't put a shock collar on him again, some of the other clients are not pleased with it, and I do aim to please. Have a good evening Mack." Winters turned and headed out with Marcus on his heels. Marcus turned and he didn't have to say anything because his eyes said it all "I'm so so sorry".

End of the flashback.

"Tyler wake up!", my eyes snapped open to the sound of Chris's voice, "you flinched a lot in your sleep, and I wasn't sure if it was a good idea to let you sleep any longer." I tried to speak but my throat felt sore, I can't seem to shake the feeling that Mack still had his hands around my neck. I managed to get out "can you roll down a window?", my voice sounded horse,  and I tried clearing my throat but it didn't help. We had left for the beach around 10 this morning and by we I meant Miguel, Ivy, Chris, Alex, Mr.Allen, Bunny, Michael and myself. We took two cars, Mr. Allen's car, which we road in and Michael's car which the girl's road in. I asked Chris to switch seats with me so I could be next to the window. I leaned against the door and breathed in the fresh air. I looked outside a bit and then back in the car. Mr. Allen was driving, Michael was in the passenger seat sleeping ( he had the cutest sleeping face ever). Miguel was texting someone (I was willing to bet the $25 I had in my pocket that it was Ivy). Chris was back on his phone, he was texting someone also, he was grinning from ear to ear, so I knew it had to be Alex. I wanted to start a conversation with Miguel and Chris but I knew that they won't really pay attention to what I had to say. So I settled for listening to music.
