She shook her head.

He looked back at Ian. “How long will the pain medicine last?”

“Another hour or two.”

“When she’s hurting again, call for Kaveh.” Devin turned back to Anna. “I want her to remember what it feels like to have a broken body. Then he can heal her.” He turned to leave. “Bring her back to my house this evening.”

“Yes, sir.”

Devin left the room and Ian came back to sit next to her. “Do you want to rest?”

Anna nodded. It felt so nice being clean and in a bed instead of on the cold dungeon floor.

He carefully lifted her and put her under the covers. “Sleep. I’ll be back soon.”

The pain returned with a vengeance, jolting Anna awake and causing her to let out a pitiful, whimpering cry. Everything hurt. Her feet were on fire. Her jaw, arm, and hip throbbed. Her ribs felt disjointed and moved painfully with every breath. Even her insides ached as if they had been jostled around. She strained against the pain and moved her body as best she could, trying to find a position that didn’t hurt, but there was no relief.

Ian was by her side a moment later. “I’ll go find Kaveh.”

Anna’s eyes watered as she lay there, desperate for release from the pain.

Kaveh strolled into her room a while later and stared down at her. Anna cowered under his glare, wondering if he would hurt her again or heal her as Devin had promised. He touched her jaw, and the pain subsided, letting her move it again. Then her ribs and she could breathe properly again. Slowly, he worked his way down her body until there was no more pain and she relaxed.

“You will repay me for healing you,” Kaveh said.

“How?”

“I will fuck you now. Turn over.”

Anna turned onto her belly and Kaveh kneeled behind her. “I can go fully into your body now that there is no child.” He shuddered and nudged her legs apart before stretching out on top of her. He held her hands above her head and slowly pushed himself inside of her.

She sighed. His girth felt good and she wiggled her hips beneath him. But he kept pushing in, deeper and deeper, like when he would impregnate her. Anna gasped in pain as he pushed deeper.

Kaveh moaned. “That feels good.”

Her stomach cramped and she groaned in pain. “Please! It hurts.”

“It hurts you. To me, it feels... heavenly.” He began to move inside her and she groaned again. “There are no female Immortals. If we want sex with a female, we must come here and find a human woman.” He bit the back of her neck. “You Half-Immortals are the most desirable.” He thrust forward. “You can take us fully and recover. If I did to a human woman what I do to you, I would kill her. Not that killing a woman during sex now and then is a bad thing.” He chuckled and Anna shivered. “But it is not repeatable. I can use you over and over again. Devin promised me I could use you as I liked. And I intend to.”

Ian drove Anna to Devin’s house that evening. Devin met her at the door and dismissed Ian. “Have you eaten dinner?”

“No, Master.”

He took her into the kitchen and Julie brought them dinner. Anna ate silently and Devin watched her. “I trust there will be no more problems between us?”

Anna looked up into his obsidian eyes. “No, Master,” she said softly.

He nodded in approval. “Good. Because if I ever see a hint of you acting like that again, I will make your life even more miserable.”

“How is that possible?” She gasped and covered her mouth, looking up at Devin.

He merely smiled at her. “You have friends, Anna. I know I can do little more to you, but I can go after your friends. You care about Jenna. Perhaps I would rape and kill her in front of you. You know I would have no qualms about doing so.” He spoke so matter-of-factly, it made Anna shiver.

“I’ll be good, Master. I promise.”

He narrowed his eyes. “I hope so.”

He took her upstairs and Anna stopped in the doorway at the sight of cuffs hanging from the ceiling above a table that hadn’t been there before. Chains hung from the table and a chair sat next to it.
