Year 1894
Awoken by the sound of rain and thunder, Sharriah woke up, the lightening became so loud she stood up, sitting on the floor. She looked at the cell in which she was trapped in a cell, with the little window, which was attached to the wall. The room which was enclosed with wall of stone and the smaller window which prevents her from escaping, for the past eight years, four months and three days.
The room have always been so congested, that she hardly breathes well sometimes, the room was both congested with the smell of rats and sweats and dirts from herself and the other slaves.
She heard a noise from the other end of the building and she stood up, walking towards the Lines of the railing, she saw that one of the slaves was been dragged, maybe for one of their purposes, she shook her head wondering how she had coped for eight years and how she was going to escape, she have been trying to escape for a long time, but it never seemed to happen.
She was captured and brought here, she tried escaping the second day after witnessing the assault done to one of the slaves, she remembered the punishment they gave her, they stripped her naked, tied her back on the table and flogged her with wires and irons, that was the worst days of her life, but it will sound foolish to say that the punishment never stopped her from trying again, instead it motivated her to leave the god damned forsaken hole.
She tried running away numerous times and sometimes locked in the confinement room.
Walking back to the room, she sat down on the floor which have a piece of clothing which she was lucky to get and lie down on the hard floor, sitting down she kept her head down thinking of ways to escape again.
"Thinking of a way to escape again"
She heard a voice from the other cell said, Envaline have been a long term cell slave neighbor and she have helped her cope through all the torture she had faced while growing up, a smile stretching out on my face.
"Don't you think is wise to leave this god damned forsaken place"
She said standing up and walking towards Envaline cell.
"I really wanna leave here you know, but you tried escaping but have been caught and totured numerously, the only way you can try escaping is been sold as a SLAVE who might give you a more dangerous life or a good life, but the chances of getting a good life is minimal."
She said reminding her of the stories she was been told about slaves who have been sold to their master and were forcefully assaulted or killed if they did not oblige to their orders. As she was about to talk, she heard a voice coming outside their cell room, instantly, they stopped talking.
"This Wednesday is gonna be a black market trade, and the warden have ordered that all the slaves from 18 to 22 should be taken care of"
The guards at the door whispered to them selves.
Sharriah looked up at Envaline, a smile creeping out from her face, finally, she was going to be free, either from bondage or more bondage.
"You heard them"
She asked Envaline,
"I'm not deaf, remember I'm a witch."
Envaline said, in a low tone, no one knew what Envaline was, likewise her, they kept their identity hidden.
"I hope we are chosen, especially by good masters."
Envaline said getting dreamy, but Sharriah pinched her quickly, quickly stopping her day dreaming imaginations.
"Do you think there are good slaves masters, no sane person will come to buy human being and use them at their own free will."
Sharriah said.....
"There are no good slave masters, if eventually I get sold, I will escape"
Sharriah said again, calculating her plan. Envaline stared at her friend, all she could see was failed escapades.
"Do you believe in mate."
Envaline asked, Sharriah stared at Envaline, absolutely shocked at her question.
She thought for a moment, she wasn't sure she believed in mate.....
"Yes I believe in mate, but I don't believe that for myself, my wolf had been locked up for long, so I don't think I will find mine, since I don't have my own free, I have been sold."
Sharriah said, that was the pure truth.
As Envaline was about to reply back, two guards open the door of their cells, quickly entering the cells, they dragged them out from their cells.
When they stepped outside, they saw other slaves inmates, they realized that they are not less than eighteen to twenty two years.
Sharriah closed her eyes for a moment, the words of the guards flashed through her memory, then it occurred to her that they have been called out to prepare for the slave trade.
Lining them up in rows and columns, Envaline stood behind Sharriah, and quickly, they ordered them to be silent.
Sharriah breathed in slowly, now this was the moment she have been waiting for.
The establishment was so calm that you could hear the sound of a pin.
"An order came from the highest authority that there will be a slave trade this Wednesday, the slave trade will rank from the age of 18-22 years, so you are all required to prepare yourselves for the upcoming event, so diligently follow orders"
The warden said looking at the slaves, slowly his dark eyes made contact with Sharriah, His face looking scary with the big scars across his face, she looked down immediately, a smile creeping at her face, she remembered how he got that mark on his face, when he tried taking advantage of her, remembering the experience was very sad and heart warming at the same time.
She felt a nudge on her back, it was Envaline
"What?"
She whispered lowly in order not to make the guards hear her.
"What are they gonna make us do, let me guess, maybe they do give us a nice bath, with a nice shampoo to wash off the dirt's from our hair, a nice massage coupled with a fine linen clothes, plus a makeover."
She said getting dreamy, Sharriah could feel the spark on her eyes as she said that, she kicked her on her leg.
"Stop imagining, because all these things, because they are not real, your imaginations will keep hurting you all over again knowing the fact that you are now a slave, who is not meant for good things."
Sharriah said, Envaline frowned for a while, her words was awfully the pure truth but there was always hope for her.
"But what if I try to escape, when I get sold, I can leave a free life."
She whispered to Sharriah, atleast to have even a tiny piece of hope, that she will leave a good life
"Do you think it is easy trying to leave and escape from being a slave, it needs a lot of planning and intelligence, unless you want your body hanged in a stake, more over, you have a mark on your body, the mark that shows that you are a slave, and no one wants to associate with a slave."
She said, she was not trying to bash her hopes, but that was the crazy truth, a slave was the lowest title in the world she leaves in, even a guard or a servant is better than a slave.
"I know, is just been eight years since we came here , well you came two months before me, but I miss my former life."
She said, Envaline was abducted by the establishment, but they not sure it was an ordinary abduction, her parents were a great and rich witches, but she knew that her parents were hated by her uncle, whom she remembered was always having alot of misunderstandings with them, they concluded that maybe there was a chance that her uncle was the one who planned her abduction in the slave Establishment
"I know, but we will find a way out, and that is by getting sold to good Masters"
She said not knowing if she was sure herself, but she hoped for it.
"Start moving to the bath room"
Hearing one of guess ordered, they moved so slowly, both feeling tired and hungry, they walked to the bath room, removing their clothes and standing naked, no one ever complained of standing naked, they were used to the harsh behavior which was mated upon them right from the start, especially standing naked with the opposite sex, it was both inhuman and human degrading, but who were they to complain, they are slaves who are about to be sold like some animals.
The thought of been sold like an animal crossed Sharriah's brain and she bared her teeth together, it was infuriating.
They began the process of bathing, it was always a short bath but today seems to be different, they were going to make themselves pure, she looked towards the corner of the bath room, she could see a guard standing, it was an order from the higher rank to make sure am entrances are secured by guards, there are chances slaves might cause a scene before they escape.
Suddenly, Sharriah made a contact with a guard, who never stopped staring at hee body, his eyes raked through her naked body, he licked his disgusting lips, then slowly he walked towards her.
A smile crept out from her face, is been quite long she took her action skills, the establishment trained the slave on how to defend themselves, and it had been quite long she defended her self.
She whispered to Envaline.
"You see that guard coming over here, I own him, just watch how I rip his flesh out."
Envaline eyes widened with happiness, a grin appeared on her face as she gave a thumb up.
"Step out now from the tube"
She heard the guard said.
Everyone turned to stare at the guard, it was normal for guards to harass female slaves.
Sharriah gave a little secret smile, slowly she stepped out, she breathed in slowly, folding her fist together, not moving an inch after stepping out, she wanted to follow orders, when he said move, she moves and then he said it, the words that she had been expecting.
"Come towards me now!"
The guard barked, enjoying every moment, Sharriah smiled again, this was part of the game.
She was longer shy about her nakedness, she walked to him, quickly the guard grabbed her immediately, holding her by the neck, he slammed her on the wall, a disgusting smile escaped from his rotten teeth which made Sharriah cringed for a moment and a light yelp escaped from her mouth for he had slammed her with all his vigor.
The guard was an average guard, she could take him, she watched him as he stared down her breast, his eyes filled with disgusting lust which was purely evident on his eyes, then his eyes took in her hips as if he was fucking her already with his eyes, her green long bouncy hair which was flaring down her hips, with those green yellow staring right back at him.
Sharriah knew he was already charmed by her, she knew immediately he wanted to flip her over and make her plead as he entered her, a smile crept on her face, the guards getting aroused by the sight of her, he caressed her hips. When he did that, a little strange emotion hit her full force within her, was it anger, or was it her wolf, her wolf was dead in her, she have never felt it since the attack on her village, even though the chain was still in her hand, at least she have to still feel it, but it have been locked up due to the harsh treatment given to her.
Remembering all this made her more angry, not knowing if her wolf was still alive or not and quickly she took hold of the guard's man hood, the guard was taken aback by her action, thinking that she was enjoying it, trying to take hold of her breast, she squeezed his manhood so hard that a scream erupted from his body, the other guards who were securing the entrance thought that perhaps their fellow guard was enjoying the young lady ignored his scream.
Then another scream erupted again when she squeezed harder on his manhood.
Then a devilish smile appeared on her face, taking hold of the guards dagger from his brest pocket, she licked the edges, the other slaves were watching enjoying the drama, no one dared to stop the treachery that was about to take place, the guard face turned crimson blue when he saw her with the dagger, not knowing what she wanted to do with it, he was weak, and he knew if he attack, he was not gonna hit her because his manhood was within her grasp.
She was gonna teach him a Lesson he won't ever forget, taking the manhood in her hands fully, she slashed it so fast that it dropped on the ground.
She had just committed a crime, she sliced off the manhood of a Sultan guard without no regret.
Sharriah quickly dropped the knife immediately then walked to the shower to cleanse her body from his filthy touch, she didn't fail to hear the guard's painful scream that erupted out from his body, quickly she heard the sound of guards rushing towards the the scene.
They were shocked at what they saw, one of their men was holding his manhood, which had him dripping in blood, they looked up at the lady who have entered the bath tube, and who had done this violent act, a rage ran through the guards, how dare a slave lay her on a guard who wanted but pleasure from her, even cutting his manhood, she will be punished severely for messing with one of their guards.
"The establishment have decided to perform a slave trade a day after tomorrow, and the trade which ranges from slaves between eighteen to twenty two years"
Durex said, bowing down slightly at him, the fear he dominates and spread around others can make any mortal being bow down to him. He was a living god, the wolf god,the king of all wolf kings, a king without a mate, he have lived a a thousand years, and the pain of not having a mate to love had been painful. He gave up on his mate, of ever finding her.
"Damien made a research and found out that some of the villages that was raided 8 years ago, had been coming back together and most of them had been in agony over the their loss of their children and loved ones"
He said, still wondering who gave the order to destroy and attack unarmed villagers, especially humans. Humans were considered weak, and attacking them without informing them was a treason, more investigations were made and it was later discovered that they were attacked by the Sultans, they were the only ones who could kidnap people without informing or taking authority from the royals or the council.
"But if I may ask my Majesty Aiden, you are against the kidnapping of children for slaves and sales of slaves for maltreatment, so why give the orders to make a slave trade so quickly, especially from that age range, is any thing bothering you my royal highness"
He turned towards him and he saw the fear that flash in the Butler's eyes, he was still his Butler and had been a faithful servant, he had been his direct messenger for almost a century, due to his blood which does not belong to the pure blooded werewolves, he seems to age quickly.
He was right at his question, he never seem so interested in anything about the slave establishment, even he himself don't know why he is so interested in them, but his wolf have been quite restless for quite some months now, he never knew why his wolf needs a slave, but he knows if his slave needs a wolf, it will be for a good reason, his wolf have a good sense of instincts than him.
"How dare you question my orders, do you think I do things without thinking, don't you ever question your king, or you will find yourself hanged in a stake, you can leave, arrange the palace for the slaves."
The butler face was filled with fear, he knew his master will never joke with his words, the Butler Durex was not going to question his orders ever again.
"Yes your highness, I am sorry for questioning your orders, I will get the palace prepared for the trade."
Aiden gave him a nod, and turned his back to the wall, he needed to think.
After the Butler left his office, Aiden questioned his wolf why he needed a wolf slave, it was not in their nature to take slaves.
(Perhaps we might find our mate there, who knows our mate could be a slave.)
It was his wolf that was speaking, he pops out from the back of his inner mind and say whatever gibberish he wants to say, his wolf was his companion, his one, the first person he confides in when he have his problems, his wolf have his special ability, which he himself as a human being never had, and that is the gift of wisdom and good instinct, the moon goddess had given his wolf that special ability because his wolf had a better good heart than him.
A corrupted heart cannot rule the whole werewolves packs.
"My mate can't be a slave"
Aiden said, not accepting the fact he was going to have a slave mate,
"What if she turns out to be one"
"Then she will be ours, and I will kill those who gave her pains before I met her, I will make sure they suffer a slow painful death, gnashing their teeth and begging for mercy, I will make sure they suffer alot, if my mate turns out to be a slave."
He could hear his laughter, his wolf laughing and he felt like ripping the beast out from his body.
"And what is funny"
He asked, a tug coming out from his face but he was happy, that he could make his wolf laugh, its been long his wolf laughed and he laughed because of their mate.
(I'm happy you feel protective of our mate.)
His wolf said.
The door to his office opened without his permission.
Turning Immediately, to know who have interrupted his moment with his wolf, it turned out to be Alexander, the head of the royal guards, the Beta and his best friend, his childhood friend, he was the only one who could enter his office without asking for his permission.
"Aiden, I heard your sudden arrangements to make a slave trade at the slave establishment, you never have any interest with anything that has to do with the establishment, so why are you so interested in it"
Alexander is the heads of royal bodyguards, and the third in command in the royal house, he was not just a friend, he was his cousin, a royal blood, and the only one to call him by his name.
"Must there be a reason for that Alexander."
"Yes there must be a reason for that, don't play safe with me, moreover you were against the establishment."
Alexander said, not believing him for once.
"Sit."
He commanded him, and he did immediately, even though Alexander was his best friend and a third in command, he still respects him like his king and swore all allegiance to him, Alexander knew the fact that he can't disobey the king, unless he wants his head removed.
"My wolf have been the one who wants a slave trade, he believed that our mate might be there."
He told him , expecting a reaction but what he got was more than a reaction
"What, and you never told me ever since, why should you hide such information from me, you know I don't joke with things like this, especially when it involves you."
Alexander said, not liking the fact that he was hearing this now, Alexander was the only one who carried his pain along with him.
Even though he was a king, Aiden and his cousin Alexander were inseparable.
"You heard it now, the king talks when he wants to talk, now go prepare the guards and send this message to Damien, I need further investigation on the recent killings of the little villages by vampires."
He said handling him a paper then holding his hand tightly.
"And get ready for the trade, won't you want a slave for your self."
Aiden said, A smile tugged on his lips,
"Yeah, maybe I do find my self a soul mate in the trade."
Alexander said, standing up and leaving the office. He hoped the king never get a slave as a mate, if she turns out to be a slave, she will wished to be dead, than being a slave for the king.
***********************
"What you did was outrageously, the best thing I have ever seen, but you know you are gonna be punished."
Envaline said, feeling quite sad for her, but hell no, she was not worried, whatever punishment she will receive was worth the pain she gave the guard. She have received all types of punishment, and she was ready for whatever awaits her,
"I know, I know."
Sharriah repeated.
"I know all about the punishment, but it Worth's it, at least I tried the training on Him, to know if I have reduced a little in my fighting skills."
She said, happy for what she did to the guard and Envaline giving her a satisfying look, they were at the table in the dining hall, eating a dried bread, with some tasteless rice.
Staring ahead of her, she could see some guards walking towards her, She ate her food in a hurry, knowing they were coming for her, at least she do have the strength for what ever awaits her.
"Hey you, stand up"
She heard the guard say, knowing she was in for her punishment, Envaline squeezed her hands gently assurinh her she was gonna be fine, Sharriah squeezed her hands back.
Finally, the guards stopped a feet away from her, and quickly, without thinking twice, they dragged her out from the dining hall, towards an empty room, which she have entered numerous times, she gulped at the sight of the torturing items in the room.
When she looked front She saw the warden in the room, his back was facing her.
"You all can leave except for the girl."
She turned towards the guards and she saw them all leaving the room, she was very scared, having the warden stay alone with her was a terrible ordeal.
"Why did you do that?"
The warden asked without facing her.
'Wa that how he gonna starts his punishment, by asking her questions, she hopes it remains like that.'
Sharriah thought....
"WHY DID YOU DO THAT"
He shouted, now turning to face her, all she could see was his disfigured face, which looks so disgusting to her eyes.
"He tried to force himself on me."
Sharriah said, feeling scared not knowing what he was gonna do to her, especially for talking back to him.
There was one popular rule of the establishment which was no one had the right to talk back to the guards or the higher authority no matter how many times they questioned them, and now she fell for his trap.
"Now you have two punishment awaiting you, first you attacked a guard, second, you talked back to me."
He said now coming closer to her
"You are gonna be sold as a slave....... and if your master had asked you to go down naked for him, won't you do that. And if you don't do that, do you know what happens, they will question the establishment and wonder why we never trained our slaves well, and you yourself know that I do not like negative remarks from the traders, is gonna spoil my business and tame the Establishment name, which I will never allow to happen."
He said now towering over her, she was just 5.1ft tall, while the warden who towers 6.0ft tall,
"Are you going to deny your master his right, or are you gonna cut his manhood just as you did to that guard."
Sharriah looked down, avoiding not to stare at his face, because if she does, he won't think twice to rip her face apart.
"Well, I will teach you how to behave well and be a good slave to your master"
He said now dragging her towards the bed, he pushed her roughly on the bed, climbing on the bed, towering over her, she knew what he wanted, he always wanted this, to abuse her in a way she never wanted.
He jumped on her, he knew she was a wolf, that was why she was able to endure all the torture given to her, the warden never knew why she never shifted, like the other wolves, maybe she was a weak wolf.
The first day he set his eyes on her, he knew, he needed to train her well and torture her, because maybe she was a special one, special in a way that she was gonna be sold for a high price, to find a wolf slave was rare, or a shift shifter, or someone with supernatural powers.
At least he was going to have another taste of her before she is sold, maybe sold to some evil drew lord or another werewolf, pouncing on her, she made a quick move to the end of the bed, a little smile appeared on his face, perhaps she she preferred been on the bed, he thought.
She could see his face, filled with vile smiles and pretentious affection, but she knew all this was a facade in order to have her.
A thought passed through her mind, hoping it will stop what was about to befell her.
"You don't have to do this."
Sharriah screamed,
The warden stopped moving, tilting his head, and trying to decipher what she meant.
"You don't have to take advantage of me, what if something bad happens to me, and you loose a considerable amount of money while selling me off, don't you think you will loose."
She said, hoping this will make some sense and he will give her another punishment instead.
"Hahahaha, do you think I Care if a slave dies, no one knows you and no one will know you."
He said now dragging her hair so tightly making a loud scream to erupted from her lips.
"You are a slave, a nobody, you are a were wolf who don't have her wolf in her, why can't you smell other wolves, because your abilities has been snatched from you, even though I fuck you and make you weak, no one cares, because you are a a wolf less slave."
He said, a terrible scream ripping out from her mouth at not just the pain he is inciting on her by dragging her head, but the words which he told her, something churned inside her, like she was on fire, her head ache so badly that all she ever want was to smash the wardens head on the wall near her, then she heard a click on her heart, then it stretched forth to her head, using all the force in her, she pushed the warden so hard on the wall, who was taken off guard by the sudden action, her head was thudding with a big bang, this have never happened before, she gripped her head, and she made a terrible scream.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
The warden stood up, walking towards her, angered by the fact that a slave was able to attack him, he walked to her dragging her on her hair, he smashed her head on the wall, he could see blood coming out from the side of her face, she slipped down and fell on the ground.
"How dare you lay your filthy hands on me, how dare you attack me."
The warden screamed.
He was raged with anger, he took hold of the iron on the wall, picking Sharriah up, he tossed her on the table, not minding, if she was weak or half dead, he hit the iron on her stomach, his actions caused a loud scream to erupt from her body.
"You are lucky, I already changed my mind of not taking you, the slave trade is in two days, and your wretched name has been written in the list of those to be sold, I don't want my buyers to see their items in a bad shape, at least this will give you a lesson to follow orders."
She heard him say, then quickly the door closed, the warden was done with her.
Blood was still dripping from her face. She clutched her head so tightly that she did not see the guards came in to take her out from the room.
They dragged her without any pity, they took her to her cell, pushing her in the cell quite roughly and they locked the door. Then one of the guards said in a low voice.
" At least this will teach you a lesson on how to follow orders, than attacking your authorities."
They left immediately, no one was in the cell, everyone was either busy building a maze, or maybe cutting the grass, tears crept out from her face, remembering her parents and sister Siera, she lied down on the hard floor, she wondered what happened to them, if they were still alive, or if they were dead, she didn't know if her sister was taken by the establishment, she never saw her in the slave establishment, a chill ran down her body, she hoped her family were doing just fine.
She stared at the chain in her wrist, the chain could not have been the only reason why her wolf was locked up, the only ability she have as a wolf was the ability to hear and see from far distance but not smell her fellow wolves, why can't she smell her fellow wolves, she always knew the warden was a wolf because he never hid his canines anytime he addresses them, then she thought of her mate, was she going to find a mate, when she is gonna be sold to slavery forever and will her slave eventually accept her for who she is, A slave for a Mate, she thought.
There and then she determined to escape immediately she got sold.
She woke up with a whip slicing through her skin, she hissed in pain as she opened her eyes, then another whip made a contact with her skin, she jerked up, now her vision which was fuzzy was now clear, looking up, she saw a guard, who looked short and fat. His round neck made him look like a pig.
"You whore, what are you doing by this time sleeping, do you need an erotic massage before you wake up from your slumber."
He said, laughing so loudly, his teeth was looking quite brownish which was as a result of tobacco and alcoholic gins, she barred her teeth in annoyance at his remark.
"I am not a whore, you have never fucked me before, neither have any of your weak fellow guards have any intimate act with me, so don't ever you call me a whore."
She said, she was rash on her words, but she was not gonna allow a bastard trample upon her, by using impulsive words on her.
Again, she heard the sound of the whip, slicing through her body again.
"How dare you talk to me like that you slave, you are worthless and useless, you are a whore and if eventually you get sold, you will be a barbaric whore, worthless without no hope of having freedom."
The guard laughed,
"You won't just be a whore, you will even beg of being called a whore, because you are gonna be a sex slave, fucking your master with torture and pains followed by it."
The guard words sliced through her soul, she felt like ripping him apart and also coiling her body on one part of the wall like this world never existed, she felt this surge of anger she had never felt before, and it washed through her, but immediately changed to pain and more pain, just like a camelian changes its skin quickly.
"Now raise your butt quickly from that floor, and quickly allow the guard take you to the auction register room, if you try any thing foolish, I will make sure your last days here become more painful than all the entire years you spent in these cell whore."
The guard said, spiting on her, she hissed loudly at the impact of the slimy liquid on her body, she felt disgusted with herself. She looked up, she saw two guards coming towards her, hand locking her with hand cuffs, they dragged her out from the cells, they were treating her way harshly than the other slaves, was it because of the assault she gave the guard that made the other guards treat her these way. A smile crept upon her lips, at least something made her happy, and if it was something like that, that can make her a bit merrier, then she never will have a single atom of regret for doing what she did.
She entered the room, she saw other slaves were gathered together in a little room, which she found so uncomfortable to breath on, one of the guards came removing her hand cuffs, looking at her like she looked disgusting.
"Sharriah, I have been looking for you, how are you feeling, I heard from the guards that you were awfully punished, did the warden perherps tried any awful act with you."
Envaline said, staring at her, her face filled with concern, and pity.
"Did he hurt you, like get intimate with you, because if he had done that shit again, I don't mind going over there and bashing his head in the walls, till I see his brains scattered on the ground and then afterwards I smash them with my feet till they are missed with earth."
Envaline said, Sharriah winced at her words, knowing she was not joking with each words she said, she meant it, and she was gonna do it if she said the warden tried any shit with her.
"No he didn't, he wanted to take advantage of me, but I sweet tongued him, or something like that, so he only punished me."
She whispered into Envaline's ears, still hugging her tightly, not wanting to let go of her yet, but Envaline have her own plans. Envaline released her, looking at her directly into her eyes.
"Are you serious with your words, because if you are trying to cover up for him, you will receive your own punishment which will be worser than any punishments he might have given you."
Envaline said, looking at her with a serious eyes, a smile crept on my face at her words.
"No ma'am, he never tried anything on me, and even though he tried it, I won't lie to you, I fear my life in your hands than in his hands, you are a lion, a war, a steel, you tear apart the male lions with your fingers, destroyed a thousand guards with your eyes and killed the treacherous....."
She was about to complete her statement, Envaline burst out in laughter,
"Hey lady, stop making my brains fuzzy with your words, it makes my powers comes to the surface."
Envaline said, waving her hands in flattery, Sharriah smiled at her.
"Do you think the guard I assaulted will be able to survive the slash I gave him."
She said, remembering the words of the guards.
"No I don't think he will be alive, even though he wanna make it alive, but no man will be able to bear the pain of loosing their reproductive organs, so he is good as dead, if he tried to survive."
Sharriah asked, even though thiz wasn't a perfect place to smile, she still wanna reminisce about these moments with her friend, if eventually they never ended up been together.
"You look sad."
Sharriah said, staring at Envaline.
"I am just thinking about the possibility of surviving without you, I'm so used to you, that am not sure I can stay without seeing you."
She said, looking sad and the smile which she had on her face waa now totally replaced with sadness.
"Line up your selves slaves, share yourselves in groups, and make sure you don't cause any commotions slaves, unless you are going to get yourself killed."
A guard shouted from the other room, which separated the slaves from the guards, they could only see a small window, where a guard sat, with a long paper and an ink beside him, he was probably the person who was gonna write their names for the auction trade. A plan crept through Sharriah's head, and she hope it will work.
"Envaline I have a plan, a plan that can make us together, get sold together."
Envaline's face beamed up with a huge smile, which this time, reached her heart.
Chapter 7
"I don't understand, do you mean you know how to make us being sold together, maybe to the same masters"
Envaline asked, her face, brightening at the thoughts of leaving the establishments and getting sold to the same master.
"Probably yes, it might work, which I really hope it works."
Sharriah said, looking at the guard, who is taking names of the people who will be sold for the auction.
The lines was gradually reducing till it was their turn to write their names, they walked to the window, Envaline at the front line, while Sharriah faces her back, the guard looked at them both, he recognized Sharriah immediately, who forgets the face of a woman who assaulted his fellow guard.
"Hey you, Stop there, do you think you can write your name down so easily, well well, you seem so fast to leave this cage, but not so fast, you are gonna be the last slave to write her name in this list."
He said, her eyes widened at his words, this was not going as planned, and at that minute, she slightly regretted messing with the guard and violating order.
Envaline turned to stare at her, her eyes showing concern of how things will turn out to be.
The guard looked at the two slaves In his front, the slaves looked like they had something planned, and he was not gonna allow them get sold together, words were on the tip of his tongue to separate them, when he heard a call from a fellow guard, requesting that the higher authority wants to speak with him, he glared his eyes at the two slaves.
"I will be right back in an instant, and you slave, make sure you get yourself at the back of the line before I return back to the room, unless you considered removing your eyes before getting sold."
He said, leaving the room. Another guard took over, since the new guard never knew what was going on between the guard and slaves, he ignored the slaves, as he went to guard the door.
Sharriah was happy when she heard the news of the guard leaving the room, she turned back, staring at the girl behind her, she decided to form a plan.
"I have a plan Envaline, we can still get sold together."
She said, looking at Envaline to know if she will believe her.
"Never mind, I don't think I need your help for the plan, just be calm when the guard comes back, OK"
She said, looking at her, Envaline's eyes showed curiosity, but Sharriah had a lot of things to do.
She turned towards the girl, who was next after her, she flashed her a smile, she knew her name, as she was also a slave in the establishment for as long as she could remember.
"Hello Margret, can you help me out with something."
She asked, hoping she said a yes.
"Yeah, depends on what you want me to help you with."
Her smile widened at her words.
"You see, I want to get sold together with my friend over there, but the guard disapproved of us, writing our names together, thereby causing us to be separated, from each other, please I need you to write my name as yours, since you are next after her, when it reaches my turn, I will write your name, instead of mine, I promise to do that."
She said, hoping Margret accepts her request, this was there only chance.
"OK I will, what's your full name."
Margret asked, she wondered why she wanna get sold together with her best friend, having friends was not her thing, but she remembered how Sharriah treated the guard in the bath room and she was pleased with what she did, and she was going to help her, if that was what she wants.
"Sharriah Stallion, and yours"
Sharriah asked her.
"Margret Wolvile"
Margret said, looking at her, Sharriah looked at her, holding her hands, she mouthed a thank you to her, looking at Envaline, who had been listening to her, she gave her a wink, before leaving to the end of the line.
As she reached the line, the guard came in, looking at the front line, before looking up at her, he gave her a smile, while she frowned back at him, not trying to make him to suspect any of her actions, and she prayed silently, in her heart, hoping Margret never failed her, and do as was planned. Her heart made a loud thump, and it made another thump, it felt strange, like someone was trying to talk to her, she heard another thump on her heart again, this time, she slipped down on the wall, and squeezed her tiny pieces of that she wore, her heart was as if it was pierced with a thousand needle, and if only she have her wolf with her, it would have reduced the pain she felt at that moments, she didn't know how long she sat on the ground, she was so lost in thoughts, she didn't know when the line reduced and it was her turn to write her name.
A guard screamed at her.
"You useless slave, will you leave this place this instant and go write your name, or you remain here forever."
She stood up immediately, on hearing the voice of the guard, she looked up and she realized it was only some few people that was in the room, she walked towards the guard, who was registering the names of the slaves,
"Whore, I wished you never get sold, so I could make your life worst than you ever encountered in this establishment."
The guard said, snarling at her, she kept mute, ignoring the guards words, having gotten used to their snickering, taking the pen on the platform, she wrote Margret Wolvile, in replacement to her name, hoping the guard never suspects any thing.
"Are you sure that is your name?"
The guard asked her, suspecting her, she looked calm when writing her name, which was not how he expects her to look and these entirely surprised him.
"Yes sir, my name is Margret Wolvile."
She said, her voice not wavering when she pronounced her name.
"Margret, I thought it was something with an...."
The guard said slowly, staring at her, to know her reaction, but she kept an expressionless face,
"You can leave now slave."
He told her, she left, closing the door behind her, as she left the room.
She walked out, and she saw Envaline who was standing on the pathway waiting for her, she could see Margret was also with her, also waiting for her, she walked towards them, giving them a sad smile.
"Did it worked?"
Envaline said, looking at her.
"Yeah, it worked out, well, Margret is the one to complete the task."
She said, staring at Margret who flashed her a smile.
"Did it worked, did you write my name as yours?"
She asked Margret,
"You will find out your self on the auction day."
Margret said, beaming down at her.
"Really, you don't have to do this now."
Sharriah said, her mind not at ease, still not knowing if she wrote her name,
"As I said, you will find out yourself."
Margret said again, beaming at her, she was about to protest, when she heard the voice of the guards, shouting the slaves.
"The warden have ordered that you all should go have your bath, and a dress had been marked for each and everyone whose name appeared on the list." Envaline beamed at the message.
"Did you hear that, a dress for slaves, this will be wonderful."
Envaline said, her face showed how much happy she felt on hearing the news.
"Don't be so happy, you don't know how good the clothes looked like, it could be a clothes for whores, too exposed for our liking, except for cheap slaves like Veronica, the establishment whore."
Margret said, as they walked towards the bath room, Sharriah remembered Veronica, Margret and Veronica were never best of friends and truthfully she is the whore in the Establishment, and she was made the slave leadership position in the Establishment, due to her famous act of sleeping with the guards and wardens, and her position grants her some benefits which she made sure she enjoyed to the utmost prime.
"Yeah, you are right"
Envaline said smiling at what she said, which was the awful truth, the Establishment can't give them the best or treat them like queens just because they wanted to be sold, instead, she thought, they will treat them like cheap whores so that they will be appeasing to the sight of the buyers, her body shook with fear at her thoughts, but if that was all it takes to leave the Establishment, then she will be willing to do it, the thought of staying in this establishment another day was like a poison to her soul.
