Tᴇʟʟɪᴇ
I woke up feeling my side sting, I winced then felt a hand touch my stomach.
"It's me Tillie, I'm cleaning the brand."
"Why so you you can do it again you sadistic fuck."
"Language baby, I will not tolerate the foul mouth."
I scoffed and felt him pull my shirt down, then quickly realized that I was tied up.
"Why am I... what the fuck?!"
I watched him straddle me and grab my chin tightly.
"Language and it's so you don't wake up or squirm while I clean the brand."
He let go of my jaw and untied me.
"Come on, we need to go eat."
"Eat what? mush you stupid hillbilly."
I stood only to be grabbed again.
"I will see you mouth shut, don't tempt me."
Ezra dragged me to the dinner table and I saw my sister tied to a chair, being fed like a baby. I pulled away from Ezra and walked to the man that branded her, slapping him.
"She's 25, she doesn't need fed like a god damn baby you arrogant hillbilly."
The man smiled and grabbed my throat a lot tighter than Ezra ever does.
"The nice this is, I don't mind hurting you, unlike my brother. Hit me again, and you'll wish you were just being fed like she is."
He threw me to the floor and Zelie spit food on his face. Ezra picked me up, sitting me in a seat.
"Lift your chin love, let me see."
"I'm fine."
My voice has become raspy.
"Chin up please."
He whispered and I did so, only to feel him lightly touch it.
"You're okay, only raspy because it just happened. I wouldn't test him again love, if you thought I was sadistic. He's in a new ball park."
Ezra chuckled and so did the man. Food was set in front of me, and it looked like mush.
"So I was..."
Ezra glared at me and I closed my mouth, only to watch Zelie spit more food at the man.
"Shows you for touching my baby sister you prick."
I turned my head and heard the man stand.
"Zelie, you're fucked."
He whispered and dragged the chair into a separate room.
I put my hands over my ears, but still heard the crack of something and her scream. Ezra pulled my chair closer to his, pushing my head to his chest.
"Tillie, baby. It's okay"
"She's not okay."
I whispered and he kissed my forehead. I heard the chair getting dragged back out and saw Zelie crying.
"Z..."
"No she has to eat Tillie, then she can talk."
Ezra whispered and put a spoon in my hand. I ate slowly and heard Zelie cough, choking on something.
"Jayce I didn't mean..."
"Zelie, it's okay. You choked, was unintentional."
Ezra stood up and I jumped. I don't want that fear, I want to get out of here. Ezra set his hand on my back and then leaned close to me.
"You're trembling."
I didn't answer only took a bite of bread.
"It's okay baby girl."
He whispered and his breath left goosebumps down my arms. He chuckled and walked away from me. When Zelie was untied she limped over to me, hugging me tightly.
"Don't make it easy, they like it easy."
She whispered and hugged me tighter.
"Zelie I'm scared."
"Me too, just hold the confidence I know you have."
"Girls let's watch a movie."
Ezra said and grabbed my hand.
"Tillie sit by the arm rest, I'm going to grab some popcorn."
I contemplated and jumped over the couch, only to feel my body hit the wall.
"Jayce don't hurt my sister."
Zelie screamed.
"Really little one, trying to run? Not going to be that easy."
"Jayce let her go, I got it."
I was let go and let myself turn. Meeting with the familiar blue eyes and a devious smile.
"Really baby girl? You're going to run?"
He smirked and grabbed my hand, guiding me to my spot on the couch.
"Really Ez?"
Jayce sat astonished.
"I don't need to punish her after everything, I'd rather her wait in anticipation for when she'll receive the punishment. All in good time brother."
Zelie sat beside me and held me. We sat in complete silence together before the men came back. Jayce took Zelie, making her sit on his lap. She went to fight, but stopped after he whispered something to her. I felt myself tremble, knowing I was going to pay for trying to run.
"Tillie love, can you set this on the table next to you?"
I did so and Ezra sat next to me, extremely close. Starting a scary movie, I was in another world though. A world of what the hell was happening.
"Tillie, you okay?"
He whispered and I shook my head, earning a smiled. Sadistic fuck. The movie ended and Jayce took my sister to the kitchen.
"Tillie, would you like to shower before dinner?"
I shook my head, not wanting to be in a closed off room with him.
"Why not?"
I shrugged and he grabbed my chin.
"Baby girl, you know it'll happen eventually. But I'll do it when you don't expect it, not when you're anticipating it."
I felt a tear drop from my eye and his eyes softened, only for a second though. Ezra walked to the other room and a shower started. He came to get me and I felt my stomach in my throat.
"Get in baby girl, I'm joining you because your obviously can't be trusted."
"I'm not going to be naked in front of you."
I whispered out and he stood behind me in the mirror. He grabbed the collar of my shirt, ripping it straight down the middle.
"What the..."
"I wouldn't say that."
Ezra whispered and pulled my shirt off. I trembled harder and he turned me.
"Please don't."
I whispered and his eyes closed.
"You make it so hard to punish you, you know? You're pleading eyes and tears make me melt. Shower, and so help me god. If you leave, I'll be worse than my brother."
He shut the door and I stripped. Stepping in the shower, falling straight to the ground. I washed to mud off my skin, then shut off the shower.
"Tillie, you alright?"
I hummed a yes and he opened the curtain.
"Baby girl, come here."
He lifted me up, wrapping me in a towel.
"You scared me."
He whispered and pulled me to his chest.
"Ez, food."
Jayce screamed and he pulled me to his room. Putting me in a big tee shirt and underwear. The shirt was an actual dress so it didn't show anything.
He pulled me to the kitchen and put me back in my chair.
"Sis?"
Zelie walked from Jayce, touching my cheek.
"Til, why're you so pale?"
I shrugged and she felt my forehead.
"Tillie you need to..."
"I'm okay."
I whispered and Jayce called her back over. Ezra leaned in and spoke.
"Baby girl, eat this and I'll give you some medicine to help with the healing and head ache."
I nodded obliging from the amount of fear I was in. What is he going to do to me?
