Rose Mortimer:

I sat up crying and wincing. What has my life become in the space of twenty-four hours?

I broke up with my boyfriend because he was cheating on me, I got kidnapped and now I have been whipped. Just marvellous!

I placed myself further on the bed. Bryan had taken my chains off since I was too week and untrained to do anything against him anyway. I still haven't seen that so-called 'boss' of his.

I was sitting with my knees to my chest, placing my chin on my knees and not letting my back touch the wall. I felt so violated, my top had been ripped off and only resembled pieces of scrap fabric on the floor topped up by my bra. Suddenly the door of my cell opened. I held myself closer and whimpered fearing that Bryan or one of the other men would come and give me another good beating.

"Shhh, darling. It's alright." a rather old, I say old but I really mean in her early forties, come in with a sort of sweet trolley with all sorts of things on it.

"Who are you?" I whispered out as she came closer to me and sat next to me on the bed.

She tried to reach out to me but I flinched back.

"It's alright dear, I won't hurt you. I'm only here to clean your wounds and give you something to wear." she smiled sweetly at me as I looked at her through my lashes.

"I'm Kate."

"Rose." I croaked out.

"Will you let me clean your wounds?" she asked lifting the cloth she had on the trolley and took the basin of what I guess is water. I nodded timidly my head and scooted a little closer to her.

When I felt the first stoke I hissed and pulled back because of the pain.

"I know it stings but we need to get this cleaned up or it will get infected." I whimpered and let her do what was needed.

After a while, I looked over my shoulder, which was a very bad idea once I saw the amount of blood she wiped off my back. I gagged and shot up ignoring the pain and ran to the other side of the room to spill my gut out.

"Oh dear, darling." I heard Kate behind me as she pulled the hair away from my face, tears streaming once again from my eyes.

"Shh, Shh. There, there. Let it all out." I continued to throw up and once the sent hit my nose it only made me do it even more.

Once all was done she helped me walk back to the bed and handed me water to rinse out my mouth and a glass of water for me to take two pills.

"These are to numb the pain and the sting. Once they kick in you shouldn't feel your back." I nodded and popped the pills into my mouth swallowing them with the water.

She finished by bandaging my back which covered my breasts and then handed me a t-shirt that was obviously a man's one since it was like the triple of my size and ended mid-thigh, I thanked her.

"Why are you helping me?" I asked feeling a little confident. She sighed and stood up collecting her things.

"Because they asked me to."

"Why are you here? Do you belong to them? And who is them?"I couldn't help but ask.

"I'm sorry for what my son did to you," she said before making her way to the door changing the conversation.

"Your son is Bryan?" I asked in shock pulling my legs to my chest as if it were going to protect me.

"Sadly yes... I'm sorry for all this. He is a good boy." she assured me an I could see the sadness in her eyes but I just scoffed and yelled at her to get away from me.
