Treasure Of Dragons, Royal Dragons Book 1 Chapter 73

Marielle

I am sitting on this plane and I’m scared. This is the first time I haven’t had my sisters with me since we were in the womb, and normally they help me in these situations. I don’t do well with people, especially new people. So, this situation is so uncomfortable for me on so many levels. 

I am sitting with my hands folded in my lap, looking down at my hands so I don’t have to look at any of them. I can hear them talking, but I don’t try to pay attention. I think when Elizabeth had looked it up the flight all the way to Cape Town Africa was incredibly long. So we’ll be in this place for an extremely long time. 

I thought of reaching for my tablet that’s in my purse. Elizabeth helped me download several books and a couple of movies for the flight. What am I going to do without my sister? I hope she and Desiree are doing okay. 

Suddenly the couch I am on dips slightly and I pull myself in even tighter until my shoulders are almost touching my ears. I can feel my eyes getting moist and I am determined not to cry so I close my eyes. 

“You don’t need to be afraid of us dear Mari, we will not hurt you. Here, this will help you to relax.” He tries to hand me a drink.

I whisper, “I don’t drink, it makes me very sick, thank you but no. I have water in my bag, so I am fine.” 

I see from the corner of my eye that he looks back at the others. Then he walks to the bar and pours it out. Why did he do that? Why didn’t one of them drink it? Then it dawned on me, they were going to drug me with that drink. That thought makes tears fall down my cheeks and I turn my head away.

“I’m sorry dear Mari, but we only thought to make this easier for you, we didn’t mean to upset you. This is a very long flight. We would like to complete the mating while we are here alone, where no others may interrupt or demand our attention.

I can’t breathe. Oh god, no, he wants to do that now? Not get to know me first? “I thought we would take time to get to know each other for a while before that, I can’t do that, I don’t know any of you, I can’t do that.” Panic is now taking over and I can’t get a full breath. 

I get up and try to find a place to go to feel safe, but there’s no place to go because we are on a plane. I think they see the look in my face. 

“Please do not be alarmed, I’m sorry that we didn’t make it clear that we can’t wait. Our people can’t wait. We need to complete the mating now Mari. We promise we will make sure that you feel pleasure and enjoy it. We will not harm you.” 

“No, no, no, please, no, don’t do this to me. I can’t do this, please, don’t do this to me.” By now I was huddled on the floor in hysterical crying, and I could feel I was going to get sick.

Then I feel a prick in my neck and jerk my head up, one of them is backing away from me with a syringe and he’s putting the cap on, I can feel the drug starting to work through my system, “You are going to rape me?”

They all flinch, “No love, we will mate you.” 

I am falling to my side, “No, you drugged me, you are going to rape me. I am saying no. I am saying no. I say no.” I keep saying that over and over and over again until I am no longer able to really speak. I’m not asleep but right next to it. I can’t move, and my body is so heavy. I want it to take me out, I want to be asleep, please don’t make me live through this.

“We can’t have you completely out Mari, you have to be awake for the mating to work. We will make sure you enjoy it, please relax, it will all be okay.” They pick me up and take me to the back of the plane. There’s a bedroom and a bed. 

They remove my clothes and lay me on the bed. Then the oldest, Nathaniel I think, but I honestly don't know their names. He takes his clothes off and climbs on the bed with me. I feel him touch my hair and my face, but my body is immovable. Then pain explodes on my shoulder as he bites me, I try to scream but the drug renders me unable to really scream, it's just inarticulate sounds. 

Then he moves over me and starts to kiss my flat unresponsive lips. I feel his hands and mouth as he moves around my body. I am revolted, I hate him. This feels horrible. This isn't pleasure, this is torture. They will torture me forever, can I get away, where will I go?

My sisters are facing their own hell. My mother knew this was going to happen and she tried to stop it. My fathers didn't care. Did they know they would rape me and drug me? Will they send me back if I run away? What can I do? Can I be brave enough to kill myself? I don't know if I can be brave enough to kill myself. All of a sudden I try to scream but I still can't. Tears fall in rivers down my face as pain rips through me, it hurts so bad, oh my god what are they doing to me?

He is over me, and I see a horrified look on his face, he leans forward and bites me again, again I try to scream but can’t. I don’t want to see his face. This is hell. I can’t stay here, I can't do this. 

I keep trying to think of something else, think of life with my sisters when I was happy. Think of my mother who loves me. Think of when I was happy and free and not being raped and hurt. Oh God, don’t make me go back there again. Let me stay somewhere where I can be happy and I never have to see them or hear them or know what they are doing to me. Let me stay here in peace and happiness. I will never go back. I will live here, where I’m happy and free, and never have to be afraid again. I should have found this place long ago. My sisters always took care of me and loved me no matter what. I can think of all of us running in the garden where we were laughing, and the sun was shining, and my little sisters and brothers ran around with us. There was so much peace and laughter. It is where I will stay. I’ll never go back.
