Page 375 of The Life of Anna-Tenth Anniversary Edition: Act 1

Ian pulled Anna to her feet and, somehow knowing what was about to happen, she screamed and scratched at Ian.

“Anna, please . . .”

Terror seized her and she threw herself to the ground, trying to crawl away, but Ian caught her, picked her up and carried her, kicking and screaming, back to the platform.

Jamie’s body had been removed from the table and Ian lay Anna on top of the bloodied surface. She tried to roll off, but Ian held her in place.

Devin glared at her. “Anna, be still,” he commanded.

Her body froze, and though her mind screamed to fight and run, she couldn’t move. All she could do was stare at Devin.

Concerned murmurs filled the area and Devin shook his head, an amused smile on his face. “Oh, I’m not going to kill her. She’s too valuable.”

The men laughed.

Anna trembled and sucked in short, sharp breaths as Devin walked toward her. No! Whatever it is, no! Kaveh, Val, and Sohrab, the Immortals, walked to her side. Anna’s mind screamed at her to run, and her body started to obey, but a flash of blinding pain filled her head and the Immortals grabbed her and held her flat on the table. Val held her arms, Sohrab held her hips. Kaveh stood next to Devin.

Devin lifted her dress and stroked her belly. “Behold this little bump. Inside is an Immortal baby. This is the sacrifice I seek.”

Anna screamed. “No!”

Inside her mind, she lashed out at Devin, kicking and screaming, but her body refused to move. The only action allowed her was to wail her terror and grief to the sky.

Devin nodded to Kaveh and Sohrab and who grabbed her thighs and held her legs open. She screamed as they tightened their grip on her limbs. Val pushed her elbows behind her back, making her sit up. A massive cramp made her scream and sit up even more.

Devin slid his fingers against her pussy, then pressed inside.

She screamed as Devin began working his hand inside her. Another massive cramp hit as his hand moved in deeper. She looked up at the sky and screamed Alex’s name as Devin pressed in even deeper. He dug around, pulling at her insides, scraping with his fingernails, until he grinned at her.

Slowly he pulled his hand out. Her body helped him along, her muscles forcing out his hand. Anna stared at the bloody mass in his hand and a wail of agony—mental and physical—tore from her throat. He held it up for all to see and then dropped it into a bowl on the brazier. It sputtered and he watched it for a few minutes before picking up the bowl and bringing it to his mouth.

Anna gagged and one of the Immortals put his hand on her head. The urge to vomit disappeared, but the nausea remained. She fell backward, her body limp, and stared at the sky. “No...” Her mind screamed far more loudly than the thin whimper that came out of her mouth.

Devin appeared at her side with the bowl in his hand and an evil grin on his face. Her eyes widened as someone grabbed her hair from behind and her jaw was forced open. She shook her head and tried to scream, but Devin tipped the bowl to her mouth and a hot liquid poured in.

A large hand covered her mouth to prevent her from spitting it out. “Swallow, Daughter, and I will release you.”

She shook her head and watched in horror as Devin tipped the bowl to his mouth again, this time for longer. His eyes narrowed when he pulled the bowl away. “Swallow, Mistress,” he commanded.

She swallowed and then nearly threw it up again, but an Immortal hand settled her stomach once more.

Devin put the bowl aside and kneeled at the foot of the table, lapping and sucking at her pussy until she was raw. She slumped back against the table, staring up at the stars, thankful she couldn’t feel Devin’s touch anymore. “Alex...”

When Devin finished, the Immortals released her. She still couldn’t move. Tears ran silently down the side of her face and into her hair.

“Heal her,” Devin said to Kaveh. “She needs to be punished.”

Kaveh moved to Anna’s side. She could feel the healing but didn’t care. Nothing mattered anymore. The twinkling stars mocked her grief and she closed her eyes.

“And now, gentlemen,” Devin said in a loud voice. “Enjoy the rest of your evening.”

Squeals and shouts filled the air. Then male grunts and feminine screams.

Anna felt Devin at her side. She slowly opened her eyes. He yanked her to her feet and turned her around so her chest rested on the bloody table. He rammed his cock into her pussy and fucked her hard.

She lay her cheek on the hard surface and stared out at the men attacking the slave girls. They pulled their hair, hit them, bent them over and shoved their fists inside. Anna felt nothing. Not even Devin behind her.

When Devin was done, he removed her necklace and shoved her out into the mass of men. Throughout the night, she was raped and beaten, and she didn’t make a sound. Shortly before dawn, the last man left her and she passed out where she lay in the grass, thankful for the darkness that consumed her.
