Chapter 7 Will I die too?

It is night now and I am pretty sleepy, just like any other girl in this room. All of us look tired. We are almost naked now, so we are also very cold. Betty quietly asks Bruce whether we can have a rest. Bruce thinks for a while and says, “ I will go ask King Cody.” Although Cody is only 17 right now and he is not a king yet, some of the guards have already called Cody King. Cody will become the king at the age of 18. There are still about 10 months left. It is said that werewolves find their mates usually at the age of 18, although there is always an exception.

 

“Cody said that you can go to sleep.” Bruce comes back with good news. Among the werewolves I have seen, I like Bruce best because he always makes us happy. Bruce closes the door to let us go to sleep. We look around, only to see the cold hard floor. There is no furniture in this sleigh room. We can only sleep on the cold hard floor even if we are almost naked. I keep on tossing and turning. Although my family is not rich, I have never slept on such a tough thing before. My skin is delicate, so I can feel more about the coldness and roughness of the floor. Besides, my body is covered with bruises and wounds. 

 

Suddenly, I notice Megan open her eyes. She seems to be crying. I can not sleep and have nothing to do now, so I crawl to her and tries to comfort her. “ Are you OK?” I ask in a low voice. “ I am afraid... I do not want to die...” I tilt my head. I am confused. “ Why should we die?” Megan raises her head and looks at me with her red eyes. Her facial expression says, “ Are you stupid?” 

 

“Do you still remember the eldest daughter of the Galloway family?” I nod. “She was chosen as a slave years ago by a noble werewolf.” “Yes. Because werewolves have mates and will stay with their only beloved mates through the rest of their lives, so we human slaves are just their toys before they find their mates.”

 

I know the thing happened to the eldest daughter of the Galloway family. But I do not understand why species that was known for love and loyalty would change into a sadistic species torturing girls of other kind. I simply can not believe that.

 

Seeing me dumb, Megan shakes her head disappointedly and continues, “The eldest daughter of Galloway is family, Tessa, was said to be favored at first and got killed after her master found his mate. Tessa was said to be miserable and bloody when she was found dead outside her master’s house.”

 

I have heard that when werewolves find their mates, they would kill their human slaves. But I have never imagined that this would really happen, and it even happened by my side. 

 

“She... was badly used and whipped when she was alive. Her v ... vagina was loose and dirty as if she was a sex toy that was about to be thrown away, so her master used it as much as possible. Her body was bitten and whipped. Bruises and even burns were all over her body. Everyone who saw her body knew that she must have suffered when she was alive,” Megan says with a terrifying expression as if she has seen it with her own eyes. But I know that she has only heard of it. 

 

“ When do werewolves find their mates?” Megan thinks for a while. “ When they are adults maybe, 18 years old.” 18 years old? Cody only has 10 months left.

 

Before today, I might not believe this story because I have been living in a harmonious community without crime since I was born. But looking at the bruises and bleeding wounds on my body, I totally believe what Megan said. Because the torture I suffered today is far beyond my expectations and imagination.

 

I purse my lips. Megan is still talking. “Her parents were crying loudly at that time. They could hardly breathe. They cursed werewolves, but they only dared to curse them when werewolves were not on the spot. I do not want my parents to suffer like this...”

 

I do not know what to say. Thinking of my beloved parents, I do not want to die and make them sad either. What I want now is to go back to my home and hug my parents to tell them how much I love to stay in the family with them just as before.

 

I crawl back to my place. After talking with Megan, I am nervous and scared. This is not the right thing because I can not scare myself to death before others kill me. I need to change my thoughts.

 

“Betty, are you asleep?” I try to talk to Betty to ease my suffering. “ No.” I hear Betty turn around to face me. I raise my head to look at her. “ Would you like to talk to me to kill the time?” Betty nods. In the moonlight, I can see that her lips look pale. “ Are you afraid?” Betty shakes her head. “ No, I know that Cody will not choose me.” l frown. “ Why? Is it because of Bruce?” Betty thinks for a while and says, “ Maybe. But more importantly, I know that I am not the one he likes.” 

 

I am curious. In the moonlight, I can see that Betty’s boobs are perfect C size. They are round and will fit in a man’s hands like ripe oranges or grapefruit. Because her bras are half transparent, I can see that her nipples are red. In my opinion, she can turn a man off without doing anything sexual. I swallowed some of my salivae. “ What kind of girl does Cody like?”
