To Love a Monster

Chapter 12

Song: This is not a Drill by Pitbull and Bebe Rexha 

I sighed as the heavy weight lifted from my shoulders. A hand massaged my tense muscles and a voice rang through. 

"Devine, baby, how many times have I told you you are beautiful just the way you are." Chris's soft voice filtered through my head. 

"I know, but the muscles make me feel safe." I let him continue his path with his hand. 

"Maybe you want to show me how well you can move that body." He held his hand on my throat, gently steering me to the metal pole. Metal Pole? 

I shook myself from my state of haze as Devan looked at me expectantly. Well then. It was him. I wrapped my hands around the steel. I looked at my hands and twisted them. Lifting my body off the ground. The angle gave me the upper hand. My twisting hands reminded me of the power I had. 

The heavy beat worked my body as I made it look like I was grinding against the top of the pole. I had an advantage up my sleeve. Devan had a ropes system running through the place and I knew If I could just fling my body to them it would be an easy way to bring him to my trap. 

I quickly made one more move and slipped down to drop to the ground. I shimmed back up and quickly jumped to the ropes hanging. What I had not considered was the chains that hung down. I caught my body on a rope and Devan stood. He moved with me. I slipped slightly and he nodded to something on the right. A clamp came down on my wrists and on my ankles leaving me suspended in mid-air. 

"Devan?" I looked down at him. 

"Oh Devine, you thought you could tease me." He sighed and shook his head. "To think you thought you could best me." He smiled darkly and pushed a light switch down. The room already dim went dark as possible. " You have no idea what you are fighting with." He ran a finger around my ankle. I whimpered as he removed his finger. The heavy dark music flooded my senses. 

"Devan." I cried out as something cold and hard traced my waist. I looked down and made out a chain. 

"Devine my beautiful Devine." He smiled tracing my figure with his fingers. The chain around my waist moved up to my chest. He unclasped my bralette and held it on my body with the chain. 

"You are a monster!" I cried out as the sharp pain of it being tightened drove me mad. He smirked and silently tightened the chains around my ankles to pull my legs farther apart. 

"That I am my darling. My angel." He snickered and pushed a bruising kiss to my mouth. "You have been bad." 

I whined under his hands. He smiled and continued to pull me apart. He gently moved me from the wall where I was suspended to the bed. I was instantly chained and he pressed another kiss to my mouth. 

"I have business to attend to." He set something by my thigh. "Be good." 

I snarled and he stood and walked away. I tried to move my body slightly, but was stopped short by a sharp vibrating pain in my leg. So the demon had put a motion sensing shocker that would vibrate to cause sharp stiffness and pain. 

I started to sob. Why had Devan left me alone. Why didn't I just run away with Chris when I had the chance? I began to understand. I needed to take down the monster alone. As I arched my back, receiving another shock, my eyes rolled back and I shook. I needed out. The easiest way was going to be giving to Devan what Devan wanted. 

My body. 

My mind.

And,

My Soul. 

I needed to give the monster my soul to make it out of this twisted web alive.
