The next few days blended together, all of the them following a routine. Breakfast, moving around to prevent blood clots, lunch, pain pill, dinner, herbal bath, and bed. My bruises didn’t hurt as much, and it was easier to move without wanting to cry. As I prepared myself for my pain pill after lunch, Bennett entered the room with his hands in his pocket.

“Let’s go,” he said.

I looked down at my still naked body and frowned but didn’t say anything. He rolled his eyes, moving over to the closet and snatching a thin silk robe off a hanger.

“You wanted to see your friend, so let’s go before I change my mind,” he stated.

I hopped off the bed, ignoring the dull pain caused by my sudden movements. Slipping the robe on, I quickly followed behind him. My heart raced in my chest as we made our way down the winding staircase. I didn’t know what I’d see when I got there or what she’d see when she looked at me. I’d made sure to avoid the mirror every time I was in the bathroom, unable to constantly remind myself of what happened to me. The more my pain and bruises faded, the more I tucked it into the back of my mind. At some point, hopefully I’d forget it altogether.

When we entered the bunker, flashbacks plagued my mind as I caught a glimpse of the Retribution room. Where I almost lost my life. Where the courageous, take-no-shit Aurora lost her voice. Where I accepted the fact that my life was no longer my own.

“Are you coming, or do you want to go to the Retribution room to take a sick trip down memory lane?” Bennett interrupted, his impatient voice cutting into my thoughts.

I turned my eyes away from the door further down the hallway and cleared my throat.

“Sorry,” I murmured, following him down the opposite direction.

He unlocked the large, heavy wooden door with a single thumbprint before pushing it open. Everything still looked as it did when I was first down here, except new girls sat on the couch where Kerry, Chasity, and Rylan had sat when I arrived. Since their deaths, the air down here seemed to change, the girls more solemn and careful. An uncomfortable quiet cloaked the place, the only noise coming from a reality tv show playing on television.

“Seven minutes,” Bennett said, nodding toward a corner.

Savannah’s red hair stood out like a sore thumb, her arms wrapped around her knees as her head rested on top of them. I rushed over to her, wincing as I got on my knees in front of her. Her head jerked up when I put a gentle hand on her knee.

“What the hell happened to you?” she asked, her eyes wide.

I shook my head. “A punishment, but I’m not here to talk about that because I don’t have much time. Are you okay?”

She rolled her eyes. “I’m about as okay as any paid whore would be in this situation. All I do is get fucked, cry, get fucked again, eat and sleep,” she spat before turning her eyes away.
