Deep wounds - III

She was not a doctor but it was Victoria's mother who had been one. Her mother had completed a course from Community college to complete her degree and become a doctor.

Stanford or Dartmouth were completely out of the question. Her mother was barely able to graduate from community college while working on the side and since she had no other degree that she could afford, she was still just a doctor.

Becoming an attending or head of the department was a far thought, given that she had no other qualifications and she could not afford them either.

So, naturally she had no clue of what to do when she saw the nails being pulled out of the foot of the boy and her blood started to seep out of the wounds.

Yet, the boy did not say a word. He silently chewed on his lips before he clinched his eyes closed.

"Ah, little boy," The woman gently touched his cheek, "you are so stubborn, just like your father."

She continued to rub her fingers across his cheek, as if trying to look for something in his closed eyes. Victoria watched quietly from her corner, careful not to make a sound and attract the attention of the woman on her.

"I'm not a patient woman, you know. I grow more and more impatient with your silence and I am going to do anything to make you," she grinned, "cry."

If Disney thought that Ursula or mother Gothel were evil characters, they had nothing on this woman.

Slowly, she dressed up to her full height with the nails, bloody nails, in her hand and stepped back. She walked over to the door, stepping over Leah's body as if it was nothing but a small cockroach lying in her way before turning around to look at the boy,

"I want you to handcuff them, blind them and then give them a taste of pain." She whispered and Victoria's lips parted. Pain?

Her eyes started across the room and landed on Victoria making the girl jump. "and take the girl upstairs." She looked back at Mark before narrowing her eyes at him in the slightest, "Don't think of touching her."

"Ye-yeah," he nodded his head immediately, stammering forward slightly before stepping back and allowing the woman to leave.

Just as the woman left, two men entered that she had previously seen come in and out of this room. Mark went for her directly and picked her up only to throw her on his back before the other guy, from what she saw last, went towards the boy.

"Let go!" She screamed and used her foot to kick him into the stomach making him double down slightly but not enough to let her go.

"I swear to God little girl, I'm not allowed to touch you but I will throw you down the stairs." He hissed and his actions in the past caused Victoria to laystill immediately.

This man had come close to raping her, so she did exactly as he told. At least in that way, extra force and his statue would not be required on her.

There were stairs, from her upside down vision she could see that. The man stormed up the stairs making her swing side to side silently as she continued to stay still.

At the end of the stairs, he finally turned around to walk into a hallway before opening a door and before she knew it, she was thrown over a bed only to bounce on it repeatedly.

Just as she gained control, the door was slammed close leaving her caged inside.

That was right, Victoria concluded as she looked around the room, it was just another cage.
