CORY'S POV

I woke from my slumber to the dim light of our room. My head still rested on the white pillow as my eyes adjusted. I thought back to the traumatic day before and thought of the wondrous beauty that enter my life. There, kneeling on the floor with her head down in torn, dirty clothes. Her long, brown, wavy hair fell to her waist in knots and mats. Dry and fresh blood covered her wrists from her recently cut bounds. I remember the look of pure terror that was upon her face when I asked if she was okay. Her right cheek was a rosy pink, probably a welcome gift from our master. But her beauty shone through all that, making it near impossible to see. As soon as I look into thoughs sweet brown eyes that there was something special about her. The innocence, that hides the temper that lays beneath, ready to come forth and play its part if someone she loves is in danger. The eyes. All I needed was to look into thoughs eyes to see that she was different from any other girl I'd met. I felt an instant connection with her. When she came and sat a few inches away from me, the more the feeling nagged me. She spoke her name with the voice of an angel. A name that completes the puzzle of her beauty. Madelyn Davis. I repeated her name over and over in my head. I stopped when I whispered it aloud. Didn't want to get too carried away. I turned, onto my side, to see the sleeping beauty on the opposite side of the room. Her olive skin glowed in the dim light. I traced the outline of her face with eyes. My eyes then drifted to the detailed,  red lips just below her delicate nose. My eyes started at the corner of her mouth, then drifted up to the elegant v in the middle, to then follow down the other side to the other corner. They were then complete with a curved bottom lip. My eyes then travelled to her closed eyes. Her eyelashes were like butterfly wings, occasionally fluttering. Her long hair came over her shoulder and covered most of her arm. Time had left me completely as the bell rung throughout the building. Her eyes shot open, and she bolted up right, at the sound of the racket they call an alarm clock. I put a tired look on my face and rubbed my eyes, to cover up the fact that I was watching her for 30 minutes.

Maddie's POV

I was rudely woken from my sleep with the same sound that interrupted mine and Cory's 'embarrassing' but special moment. As the cloudiness of sleep left my body, I realized that I was in a sitting position. I looked over at Cory who was rubbing his eyes. He looked adorable. He hair was messy from sleep and the skin around his eyes was red from when he rubbed them a few seconds before.

"What was that?" I asked while yawning.

"He smiled and said sarcastically "That was our alarm clock."

He swung his legs over the side of the bed. "How are your wrists?"

"They're okay." I looked down at my bandaged wrists. Now I'm thinking of it, my wrists do hurt. But nowhere near as painful as yesterday. "The pain is bearable." I shivered at the thought of my master. The joy he found in my pain was disturbing. I promised myself that I wouldn't make myself look weak, but I will never be able to look him in the eye. I shivered at the thought of him.

Cory noticed this. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah fine, just got a bit of a chill, that's all."

"We should get ready." He said while walking to his chest of draws. He got out his uniform and went into his bathroom, and I did the same. I placed my uniform on the stool and had I quick shower to wake me up a little. I stepped out and wrapped a towel around me. I put my hair up in a towel and brushed my teeth. I then pulled my blue dress over the towel and put my apron on top. I then sat on the stool and put my socks on. I stood and walk over the mirror, were I ringed out my hair with the towel, and then dried it as best as I could with a towel. I quickly combed it through and went back into our room to let it dry it dry a bit. When I entered the room, Cory was taken two tray's off a elderly man, dressed in the same clothes as Cory. Then I remembered what Cara said on the truck. "Children and teenagers are to be slaves, adults are to build more of the slave camps and the elderly are to cook and care for the animals." They're basically slaves like us. I sat down on my bed and Cory handed me tray, then sat down next to me.
