The man jerked up off her, his hands in the air, his lips shiny. “Fuck yeah! Aye!”

Rena’s legs shook slightly and sagged to the side.

The men around him clapped. A bottle of booze was tipped between her legs, and she winced, her body straining. The liquor ran over the table, splatting on the floor. A puddle formed below her.

“Next!”

The eager guy on the side took over, a hand squeezing her tit hard. He rolled his head, made faces, making the men around him laugh and clap. Another man. Another. They were into it now. One by one, they were all putting on their show of allegiance, indulgence.

“Stop it! What the fuck are you doing?” raged out of my mouth loud and clear.

An eyebrow jumped on Med’s face. “Pardon me?” he said, his tone sarcastic.

Muttering and moans filled the room along with thethump thumpof hard rock music against the walls.

“Boy, you got a mouth on you, huh?” Med laughed loudly.

Rena whimpered, and the guy jacked up from her, hands in the air. He grabbed the liquor bottle and poured some over her pussy. He took a swig from the bottle.

Rena’s eyes pleaded with me.No. Don’t.

“What’s your fucking problem, Kid? She’s coming non-stop. What woman don’t love that?”

More laughter.

His eyes narrowed. “Maybe you want in too?”

The laughter fizzled as Med moved toward me, eyes pinned. “Who’s next?” Med asked his men, his eyes remaining on me.

The next Smoking Gun pulled Rena’s hips down further on the table.

Med approached me. “You still ain’t showing me proper humility, Kid, and I don’t like that. Tells me you’re a hard nut to break. You sure don’t tell me what I’m gonna do and how I’m gonna do it with what’s mine.”

His hands grabbed my neck and squeezed, crushing my throat. I choked, fighting for air, fighting against the blinding pain radiating through me, shutting me off, shutting me down. My arms pulled against my chains, my muscles quivering, shaking to break free. His eyes bulged. “In here, you are mine, you piece of shit! Same as her.”

He released me, and I saw stars. I sputtered, gasping for air. My throat burned and ached.

Med gestured with his cigar at Rena. “She does as she’s goddamn told. I think you need to learn your place before tonight is done. Tape his mouth up.”

Rip.Duct tape stretched across my mouth, motor oil stained fingers pressing down on either sides of my face.

“Watch and see how it’s done, boy.”

The next guy bent over Rena, grinning up at his buddies as he lapped at the liquor between her legs. Her head twisted and she turned her face, her eyes finding mine again, and I held them.

I’m here, Serena. Fuck him, fuck them all. We’ll get through this together. Do not give up. Don’t. Stay with me. With me. Me. Me. Me.

Man after man after man after man. Poking, licking, grabbing, sucking, smacking. She only stared at me, and me at her. From that first instant, and the long brutal seconds ticking into minutes, we drowned out the cannibals and their drums of war, and there was only me and her.

Only me and her.

I tucked her inside me, held her in the deepest chamber of my heart, in the dark vault of my soul where I’d never lingered too long before. No one could touch us there. Just us holding onto each other. Shielding each other, breathing together. Coming together.

You and me,I insisted. I grit my teeth, my gums aching.

Serena,I called out to her.You and me.

Yes, she replied.You and me.
