Chapter 2

“Mommy?” I shook her body. “Mommy? Wake up.” She was cold. I shook her once again, more frantically this time. “Mommy?! Mommy?! Wake up! Mommy! They’re coming back to get us. Mommy… Please wake up, I need you!” Tears flowed from my eyes. What was wrong with mommy? I could hear the men above us stomping through our house. I leaned down close to her ear and whispered. “Mommy, I love you…Wake up…They’re coming for us…Mommy I need you…” More tears sprang from my eyes.

Suddenly the board above the stairs that led to the basement was ripped off. “There’s the little bitch!” The huge, dark, scary figure yelled to the other men.

“No!” I screamed. “Don’t hurt mommy! Don’t hurt us! Please leave us alone!” They all stormed down the stairs. The man who had informed the others grabbed me by the hair. I held on to mommy. I couldn’t leave her… I couldn’t leave mommy when she was asleep.

“Come on you little bitch!”

“No! You can’t take me away from mommy! No! No!” I was ripped away from her…Gone…Forever…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My eyes shot open and tears immediately started flowing down my face. Mom…I missed her so much…I hated those men… If they hadn’t come looking for us mom never would have died… More tears came as I tried to hold them back.

“Drake?” William sat up in bed and looked down at me. “Drake, are you alright?”

“Y-yes, m-m-master…” I tried to quiet my crying. I still didn’t trust him… I knew he was just going to end up abusing me like the rest… The thought made me cry even harder.

“Drake, I know you’re crying what’s wrong?” He laid back down and wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close.

“I’m n-not crying…You can go back to sleep, master…” I closed my eyes tightly. Shit…Why couldn’t I stop crying? He held me even tighter.

“Shhh…It’s going to be alright…Whatever’s wrong…It’s going to be alright…You’re safe here…” Bullshit… I wasn’t safe anywhere… When you were a slave you were never safe… You were always hurt no matter what…

Soon enough my tears stopped flowing. I didn’t think I would be able to go back asleep so I lay there being as quiet as possible. He finally fell back asleep, but he was holding me so I couldn’t move. At least it was warm… I wasn’t warm very often… Maybe it wouldn’t be so bad here…No. I couldn’t think like that… It would just end up hurting me worse.

I closed my eyes and fought down the tears. Go back to sleep Drake… You’re probably going to need it tomorrow. I fell back into a restless, dreamless sleep.

When I opened my eyes there were bright blue ones looking me square in the face. I jumped slightly. “Good morning.” William smiled at me.

“Morning…” I whispered back, averting my eyes from his.

“I should really show you around today, but first breakfast. What would you like to eat?”

I looked at him quizzically. “Shouldn’t I be making you breakfast?”

Shaking his head he answered. “No. Not here. I make us breakfast, but if you like to cook we can switch out occasionally.”

Why would he be the one cooking? “Ok…I’ll have whatever you want…”

“Alright.” He got up out of bed and put his robe on. “I bought you a robe too. It arrived just a bit ago.” He pointed over to the dresser beside the bed. “I just figured you didn’t like running around naked all the time. Your other clothes she be here soon…I’m going to run downstairs and start making breakfast. Come down after you put your robe on.” He leaned over and kissed my forehead gently then walked out of the room.

Stretching I walked over to where the robe was laying. It was blue. The same color as the tips of my hair. I placed my hand on the fabric. It was so soft and plush that I had to rub my face on it. Oh the fabric felt so nice against my skin. Why did he get me such a nice thing? I didn’t understand him at all… I slid it on, purring slightly as it slid over my skin.

When I arrived down stairs I was met with the mouthwatering aroma of bacon and eggs. Oh…I was so hungry. My stomach growled. “Hungry?” He looked over at me and smiled his bright, toothy smile.

“Yes…Very…” I rubbed my tummy… I hoped that I would be eating the same thing that he was…

“Sit down on one of the stools in front of the counter. I’ll give you your plate in just a bit. I’m almost done.” I sat down where he told me to. “Do you like eggs and bacon?”

“I don’t know… I’ve never had them before.”

“I didn’t think that you had. I was curious though.” He turned around with two plates that had two eggs, sunny side up, and three strips of bacon. It looked divine. My tummy rumbled again. I hadn’t had food in what seemed like forever… He set a plate down in front of me then handed me a fork. He sat down on the stool beside me. I looked over at him.

“May I eat now master?"

“Of course you can.” He smiled at me. He was so happy and kind… Why was he treating a slave like this?

 “Thank you, master.” I smiled a little back at him before taking a bite of one of the eggs. I moaned when I tasted the egg.

“Does it really taste that good?” He raised an eyebrow at me. I nodded and shoved more food into my mouth. It was so good… I had never tasted anything as good as this food in my life. I was always treated like a cat… I was more human than cat, but I was a pet so they would feed me canned cat food. I got used to it over the years, but I always craved what I was making my masters.

“I’m glad. What did you normally eat with your other masters?” He looked at me quizzically.

“My masters treated me like a real cat…So they fed me canned cat food…That’s why I’m so thin…I’ve been living off of it since I was five…” I looked down at my already almost clean plate. Tears threatened to spill out. I hated thinking about that…About the fact that I was probably going to end up like that very soon. He grabbed my chin and tilted my face up at him. His soft blue eyes looked into my violet purple ones.

“Hey… Don’t cry… You don’t have to worry about that anymore… You’re safe here… You can trust me.” He smiled a soft smiled. I brought my hands up to my face and wiped my eyes.

Looking down I spoke quietly. “I’m sorry if I did anything to upset you, master…”

“Again, call me William if you would like. I really don’t mind. In fact, it would be nice if you did.” He went back to eating his food and I did the same.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Soon enough we had finished and I was washing the plates off in the sink. He was still sitting at the kitchen counter watching me. I blushed lightly. I don’t see why he was so kind…Or why he wanted me to call him by his name… It just didn’t make sense.

“So I think first thing on our agenda is to get you some clothes and show you around the house. Then I want to show you the garden and the meadow in the back.” My ears perked up. A meadow? I had only seen one once but it wasn’t up close. “Would you like to do that?”

“Yes...Very much, master.” I smiled a bit.

Once I had finished washing the two plates I turned around and looked at him. “Ready for some clothes and the tour?” He smiled brightly, and I nodded.
