••• Mrs Beck •••

I paced back and forth in the sitting room, feeling restless.

It’s morning already and I called my husband to come back home.

He went for a business trip and he said he’d catch the first flight and come solve the issue on ground.

I tried sitting and waiting for him but I just couldn’t settle in one position.

The thought of my baby girl being in the hands of those wicked beings has made me go crazy.

My Allie is a very fragile girl, though she’s stubborn but she’s very soft and and can’t bear pains.

My eyes darted to the wall clock once again and I sighed.

I’m gon get back my daughter.

••• Allie •••

He wants me to strip? Just so he could wh¡p me like a slave?

Not even slaves get beaten like the way he planned to do.

Come what may! Never gon strip unclad for him.

“you heard me, don’t make me repeat myself! ” he said in an harsh tone.

“I heard but I can’t ” I seethed.

He raised a hand and signalled to the grumpy guard I didn’t even realize was standing behind him.

The grumpy guard started coming towards me while I pushed backward till my back was against the wall.

“don’t come close to me! ” I wimped out in a shaky voice.

He got to me and got hold of my dress, in attempt to tear it apart.

I tried fighting him off but it was to no avail.

“I’ll do it myself! I cried out and the monster asked him to leave me alone.

I can’t bear to be stripped unclad by a man I don’t even know.

If I don’t strip, he’s gon force me anyway so what’s the use of refusing?

I could contemplate going unclad in front of the monster but doing it in front of the body guard is just a no no for me.

The boss noticed how I looked at the body guard, hesitating to strip.

“what? You don’t wanna go unclad in front of him? ” he asked in a mocking tone.

“what makes you think you’re so special? He was supposed to be the one doing the flagellation but I’m doing it cause I wanna hear you scre-m in pain, I wanna hear your cry till your voice gets cracked and I’m sure gonna derive pleasure from that ” he blurted out.

“leave us ” he told his guard and he walked out, leaving the both of us alone.

“now strip and don’t waste my time ”

I swallowed the lump I presumed to be stuck in my throat and slowly started undressing myself.

I took off my shirt, revealing my white b-ra.

I bowed my head in shame, as I sat there with just a jean and a b-ra.

“continue ” he ordered.

I slowly pulled down my jean and sat on the cold bare floor with just a white p-ntie and a white b-ra.

My head remained bowed but I could see him coming closer.

Tears had started rolling down my cheeks.

Now look upright, turn your back and don’t move an inch.

I did as he said and he wh¡pped my bare back and I didn’t know what happened but the scre-m that I released was enough to collapse a building.

The one lash he gave me, sent me falling on my stomach.

“get up! ” he yelled.

I was slow to get up so he wh¡pped me me again sending me back to the ground in scre-ms and tears.

“please ” I cried.

“now sit up ”

This time he gave me time to sit back up before releasing another lash on my bare back.

“you’re taking five strokes so don’t make me increase it ” he said sternly.

How can I go through this pain? Even my parents barely hit me.

Dad had only slapped me once and I sulked over that for weeks before he finally persuaded me to forgive him.

I positioned as he asked and took the remaining strokes, scre-ming and falling down.

I laid down on my side, curled up in a semi circle and wept when he was done.

He walked out and left me to grieve in pain.

I could see blood stains on the floor and that only made me cry more.

This is hell on earth.

Remind me to get over my clumsiness since that seem to be a big crime and remind me never to cross my limit in front of people like him.

••• Mrs Beck •••

The door bell rang and I sprung up to get the door.

I opened the door and immediately flew in Andrew’s arms.

I sobbed in his arms and he slowly car-ssed my hair, whispering soothing words to my ears.

We both walked in with his luggage and he sighed.

Andrew had earlier gone on a business trip.

We ain’t that rich nor are we poor.

We have a car which Andrew had travelled with but now back with it and we try our best to give our only daughter the best life.

“let’s go “he said and I nodded.

We boarded our car and Andrew zoomed off to the McKenzie’s mansion.

We reached there few mins later and Andrew had to go through the same processes like I did.

“I’ll put a call through to the mansion to see if you both can come in ” the guy in charge said from the camera.

We waited for few mins before the guy told us to wait that someone would come attend to us.

After waiting for like forever, a huge, hefty guy dressed in black, walked out the gate and came to us.

His muscles could be seen bulging in his shirt, thick dark brows and eyes that could scare you.

“I’m one of the McKenzie’s body guard and I was sent here by my master ” Andrew and I glanced at each other then back at the so called body guard.

” I was told to tell y’all that you shouldn’t disturb the peace of this house else you will both end up in prison and your daughter will spend an eternity being tortured ”

My heart ached at these words and I almost lost my balance but thanks to Andrew that was beside me.

“but if you stop disturbing our peace, your daughter might be returned to you soon ” he added.

“you moron! Give my daughter back ” I tried hitting him but Andrew held me back.

“can we talk to one of the McKenzies?” Andrew asked.

“no” the guard replied.

“we are pleading so tell your boss we’re ready to do anything just to get back our daughter ” Andrew said in a calm tone.

“the only thing you can do is go back home and wait for your daughter ” he said sternly and walked back in,side.

The gate closed itself kinda automatically I guess.

“I want back my daughter you bastards ” I cried and hit the gate.

“Audrey please calm down ” Andrew held me in his arms.

“Andrew please get back our daughter ” I cried as he held me.

“let’s just go back home ” he said and took me to the car.

“all we can do is pray and hope for a miracle ” Andrew said and that truth was so sharp it was like a needle pricking my heart.

He was right, we can’t do anything than just pray.

If we take this case to court, the McKenzie’s gonna win anyway.

We got home and Andrew took me in,side.

We went to our room and he made me lay down.

The next thing I knew was everywhere started getting dark and slowly, my eyes were shut.

••• Allie •••

Few days went by with him torturing me.

Not flagellation.

He barely gives me food and he sometimes make me clean the already cleaned house just to punish me.

I was curled up on the floor as usual when I heard footsteps coming towards me.

I looked up at the figure in front of me and twas one of the bodyguards, not the grumpy one, a new one I’ve never seen.

“you’re free ” those were the words that came outta his mouth.

I’m free? Like free to go home?

I can’t believe this until I walk outta this mansion.

He slowly helped me up, eyes scanning my as he stared at my shirt, smeared in blood.

My wound isn’t fully healed yet.

“time to go home ” he said in a soft voice and smiled at me.

I just hope I don’t mess things up this time in front of their boss.

He held me gently as we climbed up the stairs.

I smiled occasionally at him when our eyes met.

My legs were still a lil shaky as we walked to the sitting room.

We reached and seated on the cushion was their boss with that grumpy guard beside him.

Why didn’t he send the grumpy guard to get me instead? Thought everyone close to him was mean but this guard that came to get me seem different.

” don’t think you’ve served all your punishments yet ” the boss said, not even looking at me.

What does he mean I haven’t served all my punishments yet? This means I’m still not going home?

“you seem fragile and I don’t want you to die here though if you die, it means nothing but your parents won’t stop bugging me. I’m letting you go doesn’t mean you’re free but you’re the one who’s gon come back to me willingly this time ” he blurted out with a smirk on his face.

Tch! Me? Come back to him? We’ll see about that.

I’m never smelling this place ever again.

“free her ” he ordered and the guard started leading me out.

“let her go herself, she’s not some princess that needs esc-rt “their boss told the guard which was esc-rting me out.

The guard nodded and let go of me.

I sighed and headed out with my shaky legs.

I almost tripped at the doorstep but firmed my balance.

I struggled my way outta the gate and started walking down the calm street of the estate.

I still have a long way to go before I’ll finally reach the main estate gate.

I reached there few mins later and the gate was opened for me to exit.

As I walked down the road, there were murmurs from peeps.

I was a mess and I sure do like someone who’s been kidnapped for weeks and finally escaped.

I boarded a taxi and told him where I was headed.

We reached and I told the taxi driver to wait for me so I’ll get him his payment cause I was cashless.

As I walked to our porch, I saw my dad entering our house.

“dad ” I called, almost in a whisper cause I don’t even have any strength to talk out loud so he didn’t hear me.

I slowly walked in,side our house and the expression on dad’s face when he saw me were mixed.

He was happy and hurt at the same time prolly cause of my condition.

“honey ” he called and hugged me but he didn’t take a sec for him to pull away when I hissed in pain.

“daddy ” I said in a low tone with puppy eyes, trying hærd to hold back the tears.

“sshh! Don’t cry okay? Everything’s gonna be okay ” he said in a soothing voice.

He k-ssed my forehead and hugged me gently this time.

“where’s mom? ” I asked.

“she’s at the hospital hon, she couldn’t bear that you were in the hands of those people so she fell sick ” dad replied.

“OMG! I have to go see her now ” I urged.

“look at your condition, you can’t. This will only break her heart more. You just need to freshen up, eat something and look okay before mom comes ” dad said and I nodded.

“uhm.. I came to get something for your mom so Imma get it and go get her. She’ll be happy to see you ” dad said and I smiled.

“bye dad and pay that cab man outside ” I said and walked upstairs.

The thought of being in my room again brought tears to my eyes.

I looked around my room like some stranger that haven’t been here before.

I took off my clothes and got under the shower.

I spent hours in there, the scenes of these last few weeks playing in my head and I cried.

I sobered up and got outta the shower.

I put on an easy wear cause my body ain’t in the right state right now.

I picked up the dirty clothes I wore from that monster’s house and dumped them in the bin.

There’s no way I’m taking those clothes again, they’d just bring back memories of me in that house and it hurts.

I wore my flip flop and gently walked downstairs to the kitchen to get myself food.

I was disappointed cause there was no food which means mom’s been in the hospital for quite a long time.

I went to the fridge and got myself snacks instead.

Those are my snacks that I always keep in the fridge.

I got a handful of snacks and milk.

I settled down on the dinning table and ate.

I cleared the table when I was done.

My dad’s car pulled up in the garage as I could see from the window and I smiled.

I didn’t wait for them to come in, I just ran out to them and flew in mom’s arms.

“Allie darling ” mom cried, causing me to let some few tears drop as well.

“I missed you mom ” I said in that babyish tone and she hugged me tighter making me gasp.

She pulled away immediately when I gasped.

She made me turn, took up my dress a lil and gasped when she saw em bruises on my back.

“mom it’s okay, I’m fine now ” I told her so she wouldn’t break down in tears.

Mom’s so soft hearted and I sure do know the pain she’s going through right now.

We all walked in like the happy family that we are.

The day went by so fast and I found myself on my bed.

We had dinner together and I tried my best to crack some jokes to cheer em up.

I really couldn’t lay on my back just yet so I laid on my belly.

It didn’t take a minute before sleep enveloped me.

➡ ➡ ➡ ➡ ➡

The smell of cookies filled my nose, forcing me to open my eyes.

My eyes fluttered open and met with mom’s.

She was placing a plate of cookies and milk on the table beside my bed.

She smiled when she saw I was awake.

“I didn’t wanna wake you darling but guess I was too loud ”

“it’s OK mom, I was hungry anyway” I said and got outta bed.

“your friends were here ” she said as she pulled the table closer to me.

“Daniel, Craig, Mellie and uhm.. What’s her name again? ” mom tried to remember.

“Caroline ” I helped and she chuckled.

“I always forget her name ” mom joked and I laughed softly.

“but why didn’t you wake me up ” I asked mom.

“cause you were tired and needed rest ” she replied and I rolled my eyes.

“today’s school mom, I gotta go ” I said and got up.

“uhm.. I think you should take a look at the clock ” mom suggested with a grin on her face.

I glanced at the clock and a soft oh exited my mouth.

It’s so f-cking late and I can’t believe I slept this long.

Prolly because it’s been long I slept on a cool soft bed and not some cold hærd floor.

I rolled my eyes and sat back on the bed.

I took a cookie and munched loudly on it.

“you’re always the best mom ” I complimented.

The door opened, revealing dad and doctor Melvin.

Oh not again!

“she’s here Doc ” mom said, referring to me.

I rolled my eyes and sighed.

” I thought we all agreed not to call the doctor and that I’m fine ” I pouted, glancing at mom and dad but they just ignored me.

“Allie ” doctor Melvin called.

“oh Doc ” I smiled heartily at him.

Doc Melvin is our family doc and he’s a good friend of mine.

“let’s check you out ” he said.

He sat beside me and mom made me show him my bruises.

He examined me and wrote dad some medications to get for me.

He also suggested I ditch school a few more days so I get lots of rest.

There’s no way I’m ditching school anyway longer.

FFS! It’ll soon be graduation and I have to catch up fast.

I looked at mom and dad giving them the look ” y’all sure know I ain’t gon do what the doc asked ” and they just grinned at me.

Dad esc-rted out Doc Melvin while mom watched me eat.

It’s Friday anyway so I’ll just wait till Monday.

Weekend came and passed, with mom always telling me my friends came to visit but she didn’t let em see me cause they’d be disturbing my rest.

Oh! What an overprotective mother I’ve got.

That can be a pain in the ass sometimes but I love her.

And oh yeah, dad and mom planned on taking me to another country cause of the incident but I cried and that made them change their mind.

I’m not leaving my country just cause of some jerk.

It’s Monday morning and I was still laying on the bed.

I woke up early today cause I couldn’t wait to go to school and meet my friends but as usual, anytime I wake up early, I just lay down there till I’m late.

A soft knock came on my door before it opened, revealing dad.

I sat up on my bed and yes, doc Melvin’s medication did a good job on me cause the pains lessened.

Dad was travelling back to continue his unfinished business today so he prolly came to say goodbye.

“take care of yourself, don’t get into trouble and be brave ” dad quoted out and k-ssed my forehead.

Don’t get into trouble means don’t mess with peeps like that monster, I get.

Dad pulled me in for a warm hug, k-ssed my cheek before finally exiting my room.

My eyes darted to the clock and I was late!

Yes! This is me, I’m always late.

I freshened up, singing and cheering as I got dressed.

I’m back to my old self.

Though the incident that happened almost got me in trauma but I was strong enough to beat it.

I was done so I headed downstairs.

I was about walking out when a force pulled me back in,side.

“eat breakfast! That will prolly stop you from getting an ice-cream and smashing it on people’s dress” mom seethed and I chuckled.

I ate breakfast with mom and headed out to school.

I took the elevator to our class and once in, I flinched at the sight in front of me.

Our class was decorated and the students all held flowers.

At the top of the entrance was written “welcome back Allie “.

I grinned widely as they all came for a hug.

“welcome back our queen of forehead ” Daniel teased as he hugged me.

Caroline and Mellie hugged me, both leaving pecks on my cheeks.

“Allie ” Craig called softly with a puppy face.

Awww, here comes the baby in our squad.

Baby Craig, always acting babyish.

Don’t blame him though, he’s the last amongst five children so yeah, he’s free to act like a baby.

I pulled him in for a warm hug and he handed me his flower.

“welcome back Allie ” Mister Harry said behind me.

* moron! Y’all let that evil guy take me without doing anything and now you telling me welcome *

“thanks mister Harry ” I said with a forced smile.

I shouldn’t blame them too much tho cause mom told me how they tried getting me back but couldn’t so it’s just power.

We had our lectures, had lunch with me telling the squad everything that happened.

“he’s so mean ” Craig said in a cracked voice, tearing up.

Not only is Craig so babyish, he’s so emotional as well.

Caroline pulled him to herself and soothed him.

Days went by and by and we finally had our exams and graduated.

Thank God I made it to the cut off mark and I graduated along with my friends.

My friends already got jobs and it was left with me.

My parents and I were devastated after we found out I couldn’t get a job. Not because I wasn’t qualified for it, but because that monster which I found out to be a McKenzie, made me illicit to get any job in the country.

How evil of him.

I’ll spend my wh0le life in my parent’s house with no job?!

All my friends already started their life! Why am I so unlucky?

I alighted from the cab I was in, paid and walked towards the McKenzie’s gate.

I told mom I was coming to visit Caroline cause mom was against me coming here.

I know it’s a risk but I gotta know. It’s my life at stake here.

After going through some processes, I was let in.

I walked to the main gate and it automatically opened before I could even knock.

I took a deep breath before stepping in,side the compound.

I had said I’d never smell here again but he has his ways.

He had said I’ll come back to him willingly and here I am.

The main door opened, revealing him on the cushion.

I hesitated, not able to bring myself to enter the mansion.

“are you scared? ” he asked in a mocking tone and I sighed.

I walked in and he scoffed.

He threw me a file before I could even say anything.

I wanted to glare at him but that will be digging my own grave.

I opened the file and my heart pounded fast as I scanned through it.

It was stated in the file that I had to come work as a maid in the mansion till I’m granted freedom and that too, without payment! And maybe after my freedom, I could finally get a job.

I almost lost my balance when I read this but I composed myself.

Work for him? As a maid? In this hell they call house?

I’ll have to live with this monster again?

My life!
