A Slave for a Vampire

Chapter THREE

NIGHTMARES

"IT'S TIME FOR YOU to get up, Slave!" he said to her, she moaned and begin to open her eyes to other day or night ahead of her, she saw him at that moment when that thought ran through her mind and noticed that he was standing there with a tray of food, "Eat."

"Yes Master," was all she said when he placed the tray of food in front of her, she carefully picks up the ham and cheese sandwich and took a large bite, she hasn't eaten in a few days, she was truly striving. It didn't take her long at all to finish the sandwich and the glass of grape soda.

When she was done, he took the tray away and returned with a pair of blue jeans that were faded and a purple t-shirt, "Get dress," he ordered her and she got off the bed and did what she was told to do without saying a word, she was too afraid that he would hit her once again.

"I will be out of the castle for a bit, and I want you to clean this room before I return," he told her and left. She slowly began cleaning but she felt dizzy due to the necklace. So, she did the best she could to do everything right, she fixed the bed, picked up the clothes that was on the floor, and cleaned the floors of any dirt and dust. Once she was done, she sat back down on the bed, feeling the pain getting worst as it tore into her fresh, it made her eyes water. She carefully brought her hands to her neck to try and ease the pain for a moment but the second she touched it the pain increased, making her cry out.

"What the hell are you doing, slave?" he said while he stood in the door frame, smirking at her as if he was glad that she did something he didn't order her to do. She shook her head for a moment and then stood up from the bed. "Now don't get up, I'm going to rest, so lay down and don't move."

Master walked over to the bed and laid down beside her on the queen size bed and closed his eyes. She tried to keep still, but the burning around her neck wouldn't stop, the pain got worst and worst that tears started to roll down her face.

"What the hell are you doing," he yelled out at her, "Do I have to--" he stopped once he noticed that she was crying in agony. He stretched out his arms and order her to come over to him. She hesitated for a moment, but she knows that he would punish her if she didn't do as she was told, so she moved over to him placing her hand in his.

He lifted the chain from her neck and got some bandages out from the top drawer of his nightstand and place them softly around her neck, then laid the chain over the bandages so that it wouldn't touch her skin, but it still weakens her.

"Is that better?" he asked her.

"Yes Master, thank you," she replied to her.

"Alright, let's go back to sleep, you need to rest a little more," he told her as he laid them back down and his arms wrapped around her this time. She was able to relax more and fell asleep in no time.

Dream......

She dreamt of her father once again, him tying her to her own bed and began ripping her clothes off and placing his hands on every inch of her body. He had this evil smirk upon his lips as he rapped her once again.

She didn't scream out for help since there was no point in that, for no matter what she did he would continue to do this to her, but this dream was different due to she felt the pain of the rope digging into her ankles and wrists.

"Slave, wake up," Master said worried this time, she woke up with no knowledge that she was already crying. She wished she was dead instead of anyone human or vampire to see her this way. "You're having a nightmare once again, what are those dreams about?"

"It's nothing Master," she replied looking into his eyes and seeing angry growing.

"Please don't lie to me, you're having these nightmares for a reason. Tonight, you began to scream aloud that's the reason I woke up," he told her. Even so he was angry, he tried to find out what was causing her this pain.

"Master, I'm sorry for waking you, it just nightmares of my father, he did so many bad things, something that no father should do. He used to rape me," she whispered to him as she began to sob. This time as she finally said it aloud, she couldn't stop the tears from falling and she closed her eyes tight ashamed of the whole thing.

"I'm sorry for that, but you shouldn't let something like that make you weak or break you down," he said to her in which he had no idea what she thought of her life.

Those words he said to her just angry her and that's when she yelled out at him letting the angry take over her once again, "That man who I called father was to protect me from man like him and you. But instead, he took away my innocence at the age of fourteen, I lived each day in hell not knowing if he was going to hurt me again,' I couldn't say another word after that because I noticed him madder than before.

"You should know better than raise your voice at me," he told her.

"Do whatever you need to do to punish me, it isn't like I haven't been through worst," I sneered at him.

"Get up, remove your clothes and kneel on the floor and place your arms on the bed, NOW..." he yelled out at her.

She did as she was told, removing the clothes she had on and kneeling on the side of the bed with her arms upon it. She waited for a moment with her eyes tightly closed waited for the first blow from his belt.
