Angelus's P.O.V
I couldn't sleep that night, I was so afraid, Kin seemed to be really kind and I didn't want to send him to his death. Not only that but we were running out of time, soon Yokai would have his way with me and Kin has to free my village before he could free me, it would be incredibly difficult to free me. I curled up on the bed as I felt tears falling again. I was so afraid of never being free again.
Light soon came flooding into the room and I had no sleep, I knew that if Yokai or anyone else came in and saw me still laying in bed, I'd be beaten so I got up and got dressed. I yawned and stretched before flying up to the roof and flew in circles to get the feeling back into my wings after laying on them for a while. I landed again and walked into the main room. I'd most likely be beaten for flying...
This morning I was feeling a little sick but I tried to ignore it. I was a sickly person and it was normal for me to feel a little nauseous in the mornings so I assumed I would start to feel better a little later.
I knelt on the floor (as there were no chairs) and picked up a spell book. Since being locked in here I had learned healing magic mainly so I could heal myself after beatings but also for something to do so I wasn't bored. It also helped me to get my mind off of my... situation. Learning magic was very difficult and I was just beginning to get the hang of it now.
I read and practised for about an hour before a guard came with food for me to eat. I wasn't feed very much and the food I was given was never really very good it was always some stale bread and some crappy left overs. The guards who gave me the food never spoke to me and would sometimes hit me for no reason. Today, however, the guard simply put the plate on the floor and left.
I looked over at the food, today there was bread and what looked like some kind of stew. I didn't really care what it was, I was starving as I had not been fed for a few weeks so I began to eat quickly just in case the guard came back to take it away. It tasted horrible and possibly rotten and under cooked but I had no other choice but to eat it if I didn't want to starve.
I finished the food and went back to reading but I didn't even get to finish the page before Yokai threw the door open and walked up to me. Fear shot through me as it always did when Yokai came to see me. I quickly put the spell book to the side and bowed down with my head touching the floor as I knew Yokai liked me to do that and if I could keep him happy he wouldn't hit me.
"So, are you going to co-operate with me today, my beauty?"
I clenched my hands and fought back the urge to give a sassy retort. "What do you wish of me, Master?" I muttered. I felt his hand on the back of my head as he petted me like some kind of animal, I wanted to pull away, I wanted to shout and scream and fight him but I stayed still. 'No more pain, no more pain' those words kept on repeating in my head over and over, I couldn't take anymore pain especially when I was feeling a little sick.
"I see you ate your food," Yokai said, ignoring my question. "I shouldn't have fed you after last night's lie but I can't have you starving to death so you'll have to make up for that."
Oh god I knew it; I'm going to be beaten. I took a deep breath and spoke hardly getting my words out. "Wh-what do... do you... w-wish of... of me?... M-Master."
Yokai laughed and grabbed me by my hair and pulled me to my feet, he grabbed my chin and forced me to look at him. He just stared at me with his eyes full of lust and it increased my fear. When it became too much I tried to step back but Yokai's other hand grabbed my waist and pulled me closer to him, forcefully pressing my body to his, before he forced his lips to mine and kissed me.
I was horrified, I didn't want my first kiss to be with Yokai! I made the mistake of opening my mouth to scream, no sound came out and Yokai took the chance to shove his tongue in and move it around, he tasted gross, like smoke and alcohol. I then made yet another mistake, I panicked and tried to shove him off of me, when that didn't work I lifted my hand and slapped him as hard as I could.
He pulled away from me, taking a few steps back in shock and stared at me again this time his eyes were full of anger. "You fucking bitch!" he yelled as he pulled out his dagger and walked towards me again.
Realising what I had just done I flew up to the roof and into the corner. I just hit Yokai, he was going beat me half to death for that! I couldn't help it and tears began to fill my eyes, I was scared. Yokai was shouting and swearing at me, telling me to come down.
"I'm so sorry, Master! Please I'm sorry! Don't beat me! Please!" I yelled back at him. I hoped that he'd give up soon and I hoped he wouldn't find a way to get me down.
However after about two minutes of yelling insults at me, he threw his dagger at me, The weapon inserting into the flesh of my upper left arm causing me to scream in pain and fall to the ground with a loud thud, breaking my right arm in the process.
Yokai walked toward me and pulled out the knife from my arm causing another pain filled scream to pass my lips. "You do NOT fight me! You do NOT try to run! You do NOT beg for me not to punish you! You should be thanking me for punishments!" Yokai yelled and I felt the dagger being shoved into my left thigh.
I was so used to pain now, so used to the feeling of my warm blood leaving my body and running over my skin, so used to the feeling of blood loss but being used to it didn't help. It make things worse; the knowledge that I was used to it scared me. "I'm... sorry..." I managed to say weakly.
"You should be! This punishment is your own fault, I won't hurt you if you just do as I say. All I was going to do is kiss you, it could've even been fun for you if you accepted it but now I'm afraid I'll have to beat you."
And so he did, he stabbed me in the arms and legs, he cut my clothes off and cut the skin while holding me down, he punched and kicked me until I was black and blue and red all over. Throughout my torture he laughed and I could've sworn he was hard down there. He enjoyed it while I lay in extreme pain, curled into a small ball with my hands over my face, trying to protect it. I hoped that I would go numb but I didn't I felt every hit, every cut, every stab and I couldn't take it. A few times I tired to move so that he'd get a vital organ or artery but he was very careful not to kill me.
When he was done with me, I felt weak and I couldn't see properly, my limbs felt heavy and I was dizzy. Yokai knelt by my head and leaned in and kissed me again this time I didn't react, I didn't push him away, I didn't open my mouth, I did nothing. I saw him stand up and then I past out.
