Rowan
The sounds of footsteps echoing off the walls woke him. He wasn’t sure how he managed to get any sleep through his body shivering, trying to keep him warm. Rowan wished he could shift so that Olcan could keep them warm with his fur. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8kDoUxNDD
“Are you awake?” someone said in the distance.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4lbmwB4gq
“Yes,” he growled back.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsklr1SDWaf
“Stand up,” the voice commanded.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7Olrj9RlV
“I can’t, too hungry and sore from chains,” replied Rowan.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAuiVmmoqJ
As soon as the sentence left his mouth, the footsteps came closer and kicked him in the stomach. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGD79WZGspf
“I said stand up,” it commanded again.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvypnF1PU9N
Rowan had never felt so weak in his life but forced himself to stand. His body couldn’t go through another beating. As he stood, Rowan felt the bruising around his stomach. The walls of the wherever he was, was lined with wolfsbane and his body took longer to heal or worse; doesn’t. He groaned as he used the last of his energy preserves and used his hands against his bent knees to stand upright.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCi7ahNft2M
“Now look at me,” the voice said again.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkV30Ad63E
The tactic was pure submission torture. It was classic textbook style. Rowan decided to go along with it so that he could at least get a meal, until he was strong enough to fight back. He faced the person that ordered him around but today he got to see his face. Harold. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKF2ia3xUhr
“Ah, hello Pet,” he sneered. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NdRWrktqq
Rowan responded and spat in his face. Harold whipped him across the face with the back of his hand and Rowan recoiled, barely staying on his feet. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CjhoztgAE
“How dare you. The same as your stupid bitch,” spat Harold. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4ukosfd9K
“She will find me, and she will kill you.”98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIY1D5OZgjp
“Honestly Rowan, I hope she does find you. I have something pretty good lined up for her,” he stated and flashed his cock in Rowan’s face. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrybTvWdZVR
Rowan used his remaining energy and launched himself at Harold, only to be held back by the chains that were bolted to the wall. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKufBLvgy6a
Harold giggled as he was forced back to the floor.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfvwtUXbYX
“Now GET UP! We are going for a walk, you are finally weak enough,” Harold ordered. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyAzC0yPo9
Rowan watched as he moved to the back of the room and unbolted the chains. It would have been the perfect opportunity for Rowan to attack him but he had no energy. Rowan was wounded and starved. Harold walked back to lead them out and whipped the chains around Rowan’s back.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kD4VnVgoh
“ARGH! You bastard,” Rowan cried out.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVU5meTZjwg
“Oh, come on Alpha, you’re stronger than that,” Harold teased and yanked the chains forward.
In doing so, Rowan’s body was dragged along the floor and felt the flesh rip away from his knees. They instantly stung but he used the momentum of Harold’s next pull to stand once again. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxJmhTJnJr
“Good lad, now come on, you need a bath. You stink. I can’t have my Pet smelly.”98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvWmRBWX3E
When they reached the entrance to where Rowan was kept, he realised they weren’t in a room at all. They were in the forest and the sun was blinding. In the light, Rowan saw the true damage to his body. His skin was black and blue, mixed with purple. His hands were bloody and scratched and his wrists had deep wounds from the chains. Rowan had spent so much time around wolfsbane that he couldn’t even connect with Olcan anymore and now that he was outside, he felt a flicker of strength return. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZkvIEY8r3
Harold led him to a freshwater pond that was nearby the cave mouth. Rowan surveyed the area and noted the armoured soldiers around the perimeter. He concluded that they must have made camp in this spot, but the forest looked unfamiliar. He knew they weren’t in the North anymore as the trees were less clustered and there was more floor coverage in the forest at home. The forest almost looked made to fit a purpose. All the trees were the same species, the grasses on the ground were the same and the rocks almost looked polished.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMNVCtTQZj
“Wash,” commanded Harold.
Rowan used whatever time out in the open to enjoy the sun and Harold released the chains so he could reach the water. His walking improved from the time away from the cave but still stumbled when he reached the water’s edge. Rowan looked at his reflection in the water and he was horrified with what he saw. His lip was split, had swollen eyes, and a huge lump protruded from his forehead. Rowan silently hoped that Ivy wouldn’t find him like this. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUdf1Dzggs
“I said wash!” called Harold. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVqi1vSXpQ
Rowan grumbled under his breath and did as he was told. The water was cool against his skin, and he felt the temperature instantly soothe his wounds. Rowan sniffed the air to get a grasp on his location but only smelt the smoke from the nearby camp. Defeated he walked back to Harold.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEqSyjCBS7
“There’s a prettier Pet, you must be hungry?” he said.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIKo1raUh2
Rowan nodded silently and avoided eye contact. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5PPXbhU41
“Bring Pet some food!” Harold bellowed.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB48GYw8f7m
Soldiers came running over with a meal that they prepared over the fire. Rowan’s stomach rumbled at the thought and saliva swelled in his mouth. Harold grinned from ear to ear as the soldier approached.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53AJl6UfuT
“Here sir,” he said and handed the plate the Harold.
Rowan watched as Harold checked the plate thoroughly before he passed the plate over.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7yRioALO1
“Rowan, your dinner is served,” he laughed. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6h1RjKqK3A
The plate was thrust in his line of vision and Rowan made sure he kept his head bowed. He took the plate from Harold’s hand to examine what he’d been served. He managed to glance once, before kneeling and retched by his feet. Harold yelled out in a fit of laughter. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9RNjc25s7
“Are you not hungry?” You weak Alpha!”98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ODv5up6a6
Rowan looked up to where the plate had fallen, less than a foot away from his vomit and watched three of Adrian’s fingers roll towards the water. His Beta ring glistened under the sun.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzo6ft4HH5j
“You’re a sick bastard,” Rowan spoke. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWOxWDaqcM
“I’m sorry? Are you not grateful for your meal?” asked Harold.98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNB885kYS9d
He grabbed the chains and yanked the Alpha to him. The taste of Rowan’s own bile stuck in his throat and was unable to answer him out of fear of vomiting. He couldn’t afford to lose the remaining contents in his stomach. 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRYNS3roco
“Well then, if you aren’t in the mood to talk Pet, you must be tired.” 98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIu9Xor35d
Harold lashed him on the back again with force to make him walk back to the cave. When they return, Harold bolted the chains back to the wall and Rowan felt the full force of the wolfsbane. It didn’t matter how long he’d been away from the poison, as soon as he’d return it would hit again, like he’s never been exposed to it before. Each time felt worse and it’s enough to drive a wolf insane. Harold left without another word and Rowan curled up on the floor. He wished that Ivy found him soon.
