Chapter 4 His slave III

Hey!" she heard a voice and then a hand gripped her from behind. Her eyes were already bleary, her vision was already blank she couldn't see who was holding her but she was damn sure whoever it is holding her was a woman. She could feel it, she could sense it. "Mom!" She heard herself say and suddenly she lost consciousness. *************** *************** *************** She opened her bleary-eyed gawking around the room and then she noticed she was in a different room from the one she was earlier. She knew she had been unconscious but what she didn't know was for how long.

She tried standing up from the bed but then she was feeling as tired as ever, pain surging all over her body but it wasn't as much as before. The memories of everything, how she had lost consciousness and a woman held her came running into her head like a flash of light. She felt it was her mom. "Gently!" a voice said jolting her out of the thought. This voice was the voice she last heard before she lost consciousness, she must confess, the voice sounded too angelic and quiet, it was more like a whisper. She raised her head to see who the woman was, to her surprise she saw the most beautiful pair of eyes. Her eyes were blue just like that of her mom and it was glinting. Her hair is gunmetal grey and is long and lush. She was an old woman and her name is Teresa. After Alfred had escaped from Lisa's father, Teresa's daughter, Laura, saw him and took him in as his son since she had no child. Laura was a very ruthless woman in all ways round, she taught Alfred to be ruthless too. She trained and built him into the monster that he is. she thought him never to pity anyone. She promised to help Alfred take to avenge his family's death but unfortunately, death took her away but before she died she made Alfred promise he would take his revenge no matter what. But then, on the other hand, Teresa was never part of this scheme of theirs. She has always spoken of forgiveness to Alfred but then Alfred is just too blinded by revenge, too bad. "I can see you are awake," Teresa gave out a friendly and pleasant smile. Lisa must confess Teresa has the most beautiful smile she has ever seen. She helped her sat properly on the bed and Lisa nodded. Lisa looked away from her in another direction, then her eyes moved to the bed. It was looking really big and then the former, but then her clothes, she wasn't putting on the ones she had on before. How come? she wondered. "I helped you clean up and Alfred asked me to transfer you here. This is going to be your new room" she spoke staring at Lisa with pity in her eyes. She still looks so young. She isn't supposed to be going through this at a young age. Oh, poor thing I hope you survive this in the hands of Alfred, Teresa thought and shook her head. "The maid will bring your food in no time before then you should take these drugs. It will help you heal fast," she said and gave Lisa the drugs and a glass of water. Lisa nodded staring at her wondering who she was. She nodded and put the drugs in her mouth before drinking water. "Thank you" she gave out a grateful smile and gave the cup to the woman who she was yet to know her name. The memories of how Alfred took her virginity came running into her head. Tears welled up in her eyes but then she shook the thought away and wiped her tears. "I am stronger than this. I am strong, I believe certainly everything will be over. I believe these are challenges and as mom has always told me challenges are what make life interesting, overcoming them makes life beautiful. I believe I am going to overcome, certainly, I believe," she kept reassuring herself even when she knew deep down everything will never be okay. This is her new life now but then she refused to accept the fact that she's now a slave. She refuses to accept her new identity. She's stronger than this, she thought. The sound of the door creaking open jolted her out of her thought. The maid was here holding a tray of food. It was no other maid than ria. The moment ria's eyes came in contact with Lisa's she shot her a deadly glare which sent cold shivers down Lisa's spine. "Why does she hate her so much!? From the first time she had seen her, there was this look of jealousy and hatred in her eyes. Is she jealous because of what's happening? Oh, she doesn't know what I'm going through because if she does she wouldn't be acting this way," she thought. Ria placed the tray of food on the bed and bowed his head towards the old woman before exiting the room, this made Lisa wondered who she was. "You should eat before it gets cold," Teresa said and Lisa stared at her then at the food. "How sure am I that this food isn't poisoned. I know that monster wants me dead so I'm not going to eat," Lisa spat out and the woman scoffed. "Alfred isn't a monster dear," the woman spoke and Lisa frowned. "What do you mean he isn't a monster. He took my v**rgin**ty away and now you're siding with him," Lisa said in a teary tone and the woman sighed. "Lisa, Alfred didn't want to hurt you besides he was holding back with you. If he had wanted to hurt you, maybe he would start by giving you an everlasting scar on your ass with a flaming rod," she said and Lisa opened his mouth wide. "Giving me an everlasting scar on my a*s with a flaming rod? What does she mean by that? Does that mean dad did that to Alfred? Oh my goodness!" she thought. "I would advise you to stay calm and yield to his instruction to make your stay here an easy one," she paused and continued. "Your father made him the nightmare he is. And if he had wanted to k*ll you, he would have done that himself without poisoning you. You should better eat your food and rest, he would be requesting for you on the Morrow," she said and finally stood up from the chair she was sitting on and was about to leave the room when Lisa spoke. "Who are you and what's your name?" She asked and ma'am Teresa smiled. "I'm Teresa and I'm his grandmother" She paused and swallowed hard. "Grandmother? Then why don't you talk to him to let me go? I know nothing about what I'm paying for" Lisa cried out. "You won't understand, child," Teresa said and opened the door, then closed it behind her. She left. Lisa sighed knowingly fully that ma'am Teresa was hiding something. Even from the expression on her face, she could notice there was something she's hiding. There was this look of pain in her eyes anytime she stared at her but that was the least of her problem right now. TBC
