she almost thought she was home, her dream of
being rescued was real. The room she was now in was
richly decorated in deep colors. The furniture was big
and ornate. This didn't look anything like where she
had just been. Sliding off the high bed, she slowly
made her way to the dressing table with a good sized
mirror. Looking down at her reflection, she gasps to see
her swollen, bruised jaw and busted lip. Touching it
gingerly, she stands up and looks around. Seeing one
window in the corner of the room, Sabre walks to it and
looks outside. The sky is pitch black with no moon to
be seen. A noise behind her, she turns. Walking
outta the shadows is the figure of a man. His face and
body twisted and deformed. Looking at Sabre, a frown
on his lips(?), he made his way to the door. "
Lili,, would you please come up here". Although to any
it sounded a request ,it was not. Lili flew
into the room and looked from the man to
Sabre, "What is wrong Sir, does she displease you?", Lil asked
worriedly. "Not at all, she is just what I wanted, it is that ",
he says , pointing to the bruises, " That's what
displeases me. I can not have her till all that heals".
Sabre thanks the gods at this bit of news. She had been
standing so still her body tight, that when she relaxed
abit, her muscles hurt. " Then Sir, I have another
down Stairs who will see to your desires tonight till
this one is ready for you". Taking the mans arm, Lili
walks him out the door. Sabre falls to her knees in
total relief. Knowing she has a week till her face is
close to normal, she takes a deep breath and begins to
think of a way outta here. All she thought about was
getting back to Soul, hopefully finding him alive and
well,and their son....
