ADRIA'S POV:

Yet another hour passed but I found myself sitting at the same place since yesterday. The cold floor was more comfortable than the plush bed.

My body was curled up in a corner, rocking back and forth. "I can't.. No.. I should not.. he will hurt me... he will hurt me", I kept on mumbling to myself like a mad woman.

Turning my head, my eyes again landed on the tray full of food and my stomach churned. I was hungry, beyond hungry. Who won't be after not eating for more than two days? Yes! Sa... No, I can't call him that. He will be angry and that's the last thing I want. Austin ... Austin will be angry.

My stomach churned again and the sight of food was making more hard for me to control.

I outstretched my hand reaching for the food.... but stopped. I should not. He made it clear about the punishments and I don't want to get another one.

The mere word shook me to the core 'punishment'. My fingers made their way towards my chest and a loud cry escaped my lips as I touched the sore area.

The area where he imprinted his name as a punishment.

Getting up again I stood in front of the mirror, examining it for the nth time.

And the tears that I was managing to stop started flowing again.

The burned skin was still red yet each and every word was clear. It hurts. Not just physically but emotionally too. Even if the pain goes away with time, the scar will remain, his name will remain forever.

It will remain with me through out the life and remind me the horrible night, the night when he truly became successful to inflict the fear in me.

***FLASHBACK***

I was letting him rape me.

Austin kept sucking my nipples and my body betrayed me. A loud moan escaped my lips as he bit on the hardened bud. The waves of pleasure directly traveling towards my core, making me wetter with every passing second.

Austin hooked his fingers in the gown and tore the material so that I was just in my panties. Raising my legs a bit up he yanked them down making me completely bare to him.

"Beautiful", I heard him mumble and was disgusted when I saw him licking his lips while eying my womanhood lustfully. "You are so wet, Adria. So wet just for me", he whispered and kissed me again. His lips landed on mine with a force, he forced his tongue in my mouth deepening the kiss.

"Ahh..", I whimpered as he inserted a digit inside me.

"Fuck! so warm and tight", he whispered in my ears and started trailing kisses down my neck.

"Please..", I pleaded when another of his fingers entered my aching core.

I felt disgusted with myself as I was responding his action. This was not right but still, my body was responding his.

In many books I read that when you are in the oblivious state you don't care who is pleasuring you, you just crave for the release but I always use to curse the women who give up their pride for pleasure. But now I know how it feels. Your body is always a traitor when it comes to pleasure.

Austin groaned loudly and started pumping his fingers inside me, mercilessly. Soon he was able to bring me to the edge.

My vision blurred, eyes rolled back and my body started shaking. I felt the fluid being released from my body.

"Connor", the name involuntarily left my mouth as I was still in the dizzy state.

Soon his fingers were out of me, I groaned at the empty feeling. The next thing I know I was yanked roughly and made to sit.

"I can't believe you said that", Austin hissed. His face red, veins popping out of his temple. He was beyond angry now and that scared me beyond the limit.

"Please...", I begged, closing my eyes not daring to look in his now pitch black ones.

Last time the mere mention of Connor had me whipped till I bleed. This time I literally did a grave mistake. I moaned Conners name while Satan was pleasuring my body.

"I warned you, didn't I?", he asked and I could only whimper in response.

"I fucking asked you a question!", he yelled making me flinch.

"Ye..yes", my voice was a mere whisper.

"You will pay for this you bitch", he said and got up from the bed. I was shaking due to fear.

Not wanting to face his wrath I got up, intending to run into the safety of the bathroom. But as usual, Austin was faster than me. He pushed me so I fell on the bed again.

"Ahh..Ahh. Ahh.. Adria. If you want to make your punishment worse... you will get up from the bed. Aaaaannd trust me, baby, you will feel that the whipping was much better than what I will do to you", he said in a menacing tone and I almost wet myself due to fear.

"I am sorry, please... I won't do it again please leave me", I whimpered and earned a slap on my left cheek. The force was enough to make me see stars.

"Don't you fucking say a word", he yelled and walked towards the closet. I wanted to stand and run somewhere but the fear and pain kept me rooted.

After few seconds he came back with a tie and kneeled beside me on the bed.

"You will regret, I will make sure you do", he said and ignoring all my protests he easily tied me to the bedpost.

"I am gonna teach you a lesson so that you will forget that boy and remember who you belong to. The only name you say will be mine", the promise he held in his voice was beyond scary. I started sobbing like a kid.

After tying me securely he went out of the room. I was screaming. Hoping that someone will come and help me. I knew the pain awaited me but I was trying my best to run away from it.

Austin came back and closed the door again. An evil smirk playing on his lips.

"Please Austin. I will be..."

"Shh..", he said and I almost passed out on seeing the object in his hand.

It was a metal brand reading 'Austin.H'. His name. He is gonna brand me with his name.

Slowly he started heating the metal with a blow torch never leaving my eyes. Every passing second made my cries even louder. I started wiggling, pulling on my restraints but to no avail.

When he was done heating the metal he walked towards me and I froze.

"Please..", was my last cry. He was again kneeling on the bed, his knees on either side of my stomach. His face blank, lips pressed into a thin line.

I closed my eyes and waited for the pain and it came soon.

"Ahhh....", I cried out loudly when the hot metal was pressed on my skin. Melting several layers of it.

The pain was beyond limit. I now know that why people say dying by being burned is the most painful death.

After branding me Austin left me to endure the pain and heal naturally. No medical help was given. I couldn't sleep the whole night due to the pain but finally passed out after all crying and sobbing.

When I woke up the next day I crawled back at the end of the bed and closed my eyes terrified to look at his face.

"Get dressed", he said while throwing a similar cotton gown at me. Desperate to cover my nakedness I slipped the gown on my body and hissed in pain as it touched the burned skin.

After getting me dressed he made me sit at the edge of the bed which I obeyed like a loyal dog.

"I won't say sorry and shit for what I did yesterday because I am not sorry for anything. I am not a man who tolerates nonsense Adria and I will never change that attitude of mine", I kept silent as he said this. Looking at the floor.

"I am still mad at you for doing that but still I want your body", my lips quivered at his words.

"But you need to heal now. I will leave you for some days but I still want to teach you discipline. And keep that in mind you will do what I say", I nodded.

"Use your fucking words"

"Ye..yes", I whispered, tears now flowing down my cheeks.

"Good. I want you kneeling near the bed when I enter the room"

"Yess.."

"You will not sleep on the bed. You lost the right last night. You will sleep on the floor. You will be allowed on the bed only when I want to fuck you"

"Ye..yes", I sobbed.

"You will take my permission before using the bathroom", I nodded but then corrected myself quickly by saying yes.

"And last you will NOT eat or even drink water unless I tell you so"

"Yes"

"If you go against any of the above things the consequences will be worse", he said the last sentence grabbing my jaw harshly and left the room pushing me on the bed.

He did not return the same day but the next day he came with a tray of food in his hand.

I knelt beside the bed, my head hung low. The way he ordered me to.

"Good to see that you are learning", he said and squatted in front of me.

My mouth watered as he kept a tray of food and a glass of water in front of me. My stomach churned at the site.

My hand worked on its own and went towards the food. Austin pushed the tray away and held my hand.

"Have I asked you to eat?", he asked his eyes blazing with anger. God knows why.

"No..no"

"So will you eat?", he asked again.

"No"

"Good! I am leaving this tray here. Drink the water but if you dare touch the food....", he did not complete the sentence. There was no need to. I know the consequences very well and I never want to face them again.

***END OF FLASHBACK***

So that's the reason why I can't touch the food. That's the reason why I was curled up in the corner of the room, on the floor.

I was startled when the sound of the door being opened fell on my ears.

Running, I took my position beside the bed.

He walked near me, pulling me up he made me sit on the bed.

Next, I know his lips were crashed on mine. It took me by surprise as his lips moved on mine slowly, almost lovingly. He was being gentle.

"You don't know how happy I am to see you like this. To see how obedient you are now", he said and kissed my forehead.

I hated him for acting this way. He does not care about me, so why showing false affection.

"I really thought that you will eat the food, but you didn't", he stopped and walked into the walk in closet and came out with a beautiful maroon dress in his hand. He also had a bra and lacy thong in his hand. But I didn't dare to question him about it.

"Come, I will wash you and then get you dressed", he said smiling at me.

I felt weak. I even did not have the power to bath right now. Gathering some courage I finally said.

"Ca... can I hav..have some food?", I asked desperately but still not looking in his eyes.

"Don't worry just freshen up. We are going to have dinner with my parents"
