Chapter 50
Emery
Lying here, trying to mentally prepare myself for the shit- show that will be taking place all too soon, and not being able to relax because I don't dare allow myself to sleep when I know he's coming for me. There is no clock to tell me what time of day or night it is but I do know that it's been at least two hours if not longer since the women left my prison cell.
I hold on to my amulet because it's the only thing that I have that reminds me of home and I have to believe that they will come for me soon, I've prayed to the Goddess that they will come. So, it's so unexpected when I feel their presence suddenly.
I sit up quick and look around the room but it's still empty. My amulet is warm to the touch as I fist it and I have a strange sense that it's glowing within my hand but I don't dare look just yet. I hear them, I hear my mates! Not in the sense as if they are talking straight to me, but it's more of a feeling, if that makes sense. If I'm understanding them correctly, they are coming for me and relief washes over me.
The door to the room I'm in opens suddenly, and in walks Colin. let go of my amulet and it now lays cold against my bare chest. The look on my uncle's face worries me because it' s a mixture of lust and anger, and it's all directed at me. He walks over to me slowly as a grin begins to form on his face.
"Look at you, all nice and clean, and waiting in the bed like a good little whore. You are going to make a wonderful addi-
tion to my harem. You will be the only one to sleep in my bed, unless you're naughty of course, then you will be thrown into the cage under my bed. So, I suggest you be a good girl and always do as your master tells you to do."
He hasn't tried touching me yet but he does begin to take his suit jacket off slowly. Next are his cufflinks and then the buttons at his wrists. I swallow hard, not knowing how I'm go- ing to talk my way out of this one. He's determined to have me no matter how disgusting it is.
"Uncle Colin, please..."
He laughs, "Pulling out the uncle card isn't going to save you from a good fucking from me. If anything, it turns me on even more, knowing that it's so taboo with other species, but with me, it means nothing. It would be different if you were my daughter, after all, I have to draw the line somewhere." He begins to unbutton his shirt, "Spread those pretty thighs and let me see what it is I will be plundering in just a few minutes."
I go to speak but there is a loud knock on the door. Colin growls and goes to the door, flinging it open in his annoy- ance, "This better be good! You know how I don't like being disturbed when I'm with my whores!"
"I'm sorry, Sir, but there is a disturbance out at the front gate. It seems as though some of the rebellious ones are forming their own posse and are protesting.” The guard in- forms him.
My uncle turns and comes back over to me, "Don't get too comfy, I will be back sooner than you think, and I will make sure that nothing disturbs us for the rest of the night." He grabs his suit jacket and leaves. Sending up prayers, thanking
the Goddess for this small reprieve and I grip my amulet once more but there isn't anything there. I don't know how they were able to get through earlier but I'm grateful that they did. Now I just pray that they get here soon.
Maybe an hour goes by, all of it spent pacing back and forth. My nails are almost non-existent from chewing them down to a nub. I finally decide to use the bathroom since my chain reaches that far, and it isn't until I'm coming back out that I realize I'm no longer alone.
"Sorry for the delay, but it seems as though a few of my women had stirred up some trouble, thinking they can sepa- rate themselves from my harem and start their own little group. It's cute really, but they should have known better than to go against me, just like you will learn not to as well. In the future, you will do well not to put such nonsense into the heads of my women; I really don't want to lose anymore."
"W-What are you talking about?" I frown.
"Don't play dumb; you're anything but that. Did you have a nice conversation with the women who bathed you?" He cocks a brow.
"They seemed nice enough, why?"
