Caged by him

52

The guard pushed me into Mr. Alnsour's office, and left.

You look stunning, he smiles at me devilishly, looking up and down my body. It disgusted me, it felt like I was a object on display, ready to be bought.

I looked at him freighted but angry.
I just stared at him.
Roman will find me, he will kill all of you.

He starts laughing, walking towards me until our faces almost touched.

Roman is not coming for you, his plan was to give you to me all along. He could care less about you.

He grabbed my jaw lightly but firm. I flinched away slightly becoming more intimidated.
My eyes began to water.

You-your l-l- lying.

He slaps me across the face, Almost losing my ground.
I hold my throbbing cheek.

I scream in pain as he grabs me by my hair roughly dragging me towards the front of his table.

Hand still gripping me by my hair, forcing my eyes to a piece of paper laying on the table.

I can't read out the words, because of tears filling up my eyes.

He hands me a pen, Sign the paper now.

I cleared my eyes just enough to see that they were divorce papers.

No! I will not sign them!

I know Roman is cruel, but he is no where near as cruel as his father. I can't deny what my heart feels for Roman, I can't explain why, or how that works. I thought to myself.

Sign them now! He grips my wrist, forcing the pen in my hand to sign. I struggle against him, but it's no use, It was done.

Releasing my hand and hair, I drop to the floor crying in defeat. Guards!

Men in Black enter to take me away.
......
It's been days since Mike locked me in this shit hole. I continued to plan my escape from here, but it was useless, one failure attempt of escape after another.

They continued to slip food and water through the door, I threw it away every time, refusing to eat. I was starting to feel weak and helpless.

Food slips inside the room. I don't want your fucking food, you stupid son of a bitch!! When I get out I will kill all of you!!

I was about to kick the food until I heard a very familiar voice.

Roman, you must eat, keep up your strength kid.

It was the security guard from my childhood, Navid.

I came closer to the door, resting both arms on the wall.
Navid, is that really you?

Yea it's me kid, when I heard that they had you locked up in here like this, I had to come.
How did you get yourself in this mess, for some girl named Star to my understanding.

She is not some girl, she is the love of my life. Please Navid you gotta help me escape, if I don't save her soon, my father will destroy her.

Please, Navid, please help me, your the only hope I have left.

Silence filled the room, but I could still hear his breathing through the silence.
........

The guards shut me inside a room, a woman was sitting in a chair, I only saw the back of her head.

Hello, umm who who are you. No response. I moved closer to her. Excuse me, miss, I tried again to get a response out of the unknown woman.

After a couple seconds of silence. She stands up, when she turns around, I gasp surprised.

Laura what what are you doing here, they took you as well?

No Star, well yes In a way they did take me as well a long long time ago.

Why haven't you tried to escape ever.

I tried more times then I can count but after so many failed attempts, I gave in. Beating after beating I took, I learned the hard way.

What do you mean, learn what?

Once they decide to put you into this life, you are marked as theirs until your last breath.
You either stay and obey, or die, those are the only two choices.

Wa-wait tha-that means you knew all this time what Roman was planning on doing with me. You never warned me. Why?

No, that's not true, I knew Roman for a very long time, he would never marry one of the whores, ever. He breaks us in and hands us over to his father. I had no idea they even wanted you to work for them.

I swear I had no idea Star.
When I was fourteen years old, they stole me from my family, brought me in a empty room with just a mattress on the floor.

Roman was around the same age as me when  his father forced him to rape me. He never wanted to do it, at first he was nice to me, but the more time passed he became just like his father.

We were both scared kids once, and now we are both monsters.

I crawled my way to the top in this business, eventually I gained Mr. Alnsour's trust, putting me in charge of the girls. I prepped  them for the auctions, I also recruit young girls and women.

I'm sorry Star this was the only way for me to survive. He promised me I would never have to participate in any of the auctions ever again, as long as I found other girls for the jobs.

I looked at her in disbelief. So now I am one of the girls that you have to prep?

Yes.

I backed away few inches, no way Laura, I will not participate, I can't! Please help me escape, I know Roman can keep me safe and away from this life.

I'm sorry Star, I can't do that and you will do the jobs, don't you get it! Their is no escaping.

If you don't obey, mr. Alnsour will blame me for failing, he will hurt me if I don't deliver.

I was about to yell at her again, but when I looked into her eyes again, I saw the same scared and helpless girl, which I see in my reflection.

Right then I realized, we are no different then each other, we are both trying to survive.
