“You love me Lexi you do!” he says in a softer voice.
“Tell me you love me?” he says softer but I say nothing.
“Tell me!” He barks as he whips me again.
“I love you, I love you.” I cry out.
“Again!” he yells with another whip.
“I love you!” I cry out and my body shakes in sobs.
He continues this mantra for another six whippings. My body falls dazedly down onto the mattress as I stare numbly at the blood that is now trailing down my arm from my wrist being sliced open by the leather belt that holds them together. The pain is still there but I’m no longer crying or shaken with fear. I lay there emotionless as Drake continues to break me apart; my body is battered and bruised just as the inside of me is.
My body continues to move back and forth on the mattress by the harsh force of the belt being slapped against my back and bare ass. I’m silent now, the only sound apart from the belt hitting my flesh is the bed squeaking beneath me and Drakes animalistic grunts.
I stare as the blood drips from my raised elbow onto the bare mattress since the sheet has come loose due to my struggling, I watch as the mattress absorbs the drop of blood, the drop is gone but the stain from it is still there and will most probably be damaged forever, just how I absorb all the pain Drake inflicts on me, although he’s doing this to me now…eventually the bruises and cuts will fade but he’s ruined me, forever.
I tune everything out as I lean on my elevated arm and continuously stare at the dripping blood. I feel Drakes pace slow and my entire back and ass is numb and stiff, I hear the belt drop to the floor. I should probably feel happy or some sort of relief that he’s done but I don’t. I don’t feel anything. He leans over me and gives my shoulder a soft kiss before he gets off the bed. I hear him as he puts his shirt on, he doesn’t say a word, he pulls the belt tightly trying to loosen my bloody wrists causing more pain but I continue to lay there and take it … In some sick way I’m relieved he only intended on beating me, he could’ve done much worse.
The belt loosens and my wrists come loose, I can’t feel my arms at this point and they fall onto the bed sluggishly as I continue to lie there still… emotionlessly. I watch from beneath the hair that covers my face as he pulls his blood covered belt away and walks from the bed putting his belt back on his jeans. He moves to the other side of the bed as he switches the light off leaving me in darkness as he walks towards the door, I hear his footsteps stop as he looks at my battered naked body then he walks out. I hear keys rattling then a door slam, a few seconds later I hear a car skid off into the distance.
I continue to lay their frozen afraid the monster might return. I lay there unable to sleep or move in the darkness of the room.
CHAPTER 34:
CHLOE POV
It’s lunch time and we’re all sitting at the cafeteria, Jax has some random girl hanging off his shoulder. Ever since Lexi went to stay at the other pack house Jax has gone back to his old ways with the girls. Drake has been weird all day, you would think he would be excited to see Lexi since she's staying here this weekend but he's been quiet and depressed looking. Ronny is happy that Lexi is here and we are all excited to go out to dinner tonight with her.
"What's up with you bud?" Jax asks throwing a fry onto Drakes food tray trying to get his attention.
"Nothing just tired...." Drake replies.
"What? Long night with Lexi?" Ronny teases and I see Jax tense. I know what Ronny’s mission is...make Jax jealous.
"Something like that." Drake mumbles as he gets up with his tray and walks out the lunch room, leaving Jax clenching his jaw.
I excuse myself to go to the bathroom but on my way there I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket. I make my way into the stall before I answer the phone seeing Lexi's name appear on the screen, she usually doesn't call me.
"Hello Lex! What's up?" I say happily into the phone but as soon as I hear Lexi's muffled voice on the other end I i know something is wrong.
"I need your help but... if you help me....you have to keep whatever I ask you and whatever you see between the two of us. You can't even tell Ronny." she begs as I hear her start to cry. I'm grateful that she felt she could trust me in helping her so I promise I will keep it between us as she continues.
"Can you please come to the trailer, if you have any pain medicine it would help, as well as some antiseptic or something that can clear wounds? Don't tell anyone Chlo...please." She cry's into the speaker.
"I'm on my way." I don't ask questions, I leave the school telling them I'm sick, I don't have the next three lessons with Ronny so she won't notice me missing until last period which gives me time. I stop at the pharmacy and buy the things Lexi asked for along with a few extra supplies. I make my way over to where Lexi is and mentally prepare myself for what I’m about to see.
