Once a Slave, Always a Slave - Chapter 14

Sonette wakes up with sunlight in her eyes and moans in pain as she sits up to see Sonic still fast asleep. Sonette smiles as she slides out of bed and walks to the window. Lionel didn't come near her at all yesterday and like Sonic said, they had their meals brought to them in their room. Sonette sighs, she still can't shake a feeling. Lionel won't accept what has happened and he will take his anger on Sonette. Sonette is scared he will somehow send her to James and Ryan, like everyone else does when they are sick of her. Sonette sighs. Sonic wakes up and saw Sonette by the window so he got up and walks over. Sonette turns around and Sonic saw something was wrong.

"What is it?" Sonic asks.

"I need to get to Amy, I am her slave after all." Sonette replies and Sonic sighs.

"Give me a second and I'll take you." Sonic said walking off and started to get change. Sonette sighs as she looks away. Sonic looks at her worried. "Are you okay?" Sonic asks.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Sonette replies and Sonic sighs as she quickly got change, knowing what could be wrong. Sonic then walks over and Sonette looks at him.

"Come on." Sonic said and Sonette walks over, then nods. The pair heads off and Sonette sighs as she wraps her arms around her waist. Sonic looks at her worried and Sonette sighs. They came to Amy's room and Sonette walks in first to see Amy getting out of bed.

"Sonette." Amy said smiling as Sonette walks over with Sonic behind her.

"Good morning." Sonette greets.

"How are you feeling?" Amy asks worried.

"I'm fine." Sonette replies and Amy sighs. "Shall I help you get dress?" Sonette said and Amy smiles.

"Come on." Amy said and Sonette nods. Sonette help Amy get dress and Amy smiles. They then heard out and Sonette stayed close to Sonic and Amy. Amy looks at her worried and Sonette smiles. They came to the dining room and Sonette leans against the wall. "Will you be okay?" Amy asks.

"I'll be fine." Sonette replies as Fire walks over.

"Okay." Amy said as she walks in with Sonic.

"How are you feeling?" Fire asks.

"I'm fine." Sonette replies. "Still in a bit of pain, it will pass." Sonette admits.

"You just take it easy, okay. Don't overdo it." Fire tells her and Sonette nods.

"Right, I will." Sonette said. "I'm just scared on what Mr Rose will do." Sonette admits.

"I know." Fire said. Then Amy walks, slamming he doors open.

"Don't you dare walk away young lady!" Lionel shouts and Amy turns around.

"You're a monster!" Amy screams, then grabs Sonette and walks off, dragging Sonette behind her. They walk into Amy's room and Amy slams the door close. Sonette sighs as she looks at Amy worried.

"Amy." Sonette whispers and Amy sighs.

"Sorry Sonette." Amy said as she walks over to the bed and sighs as she sits in the middle.

"What's wrong?" Sonette asks worried.

"Come here." Amy tells her, patting the bed in front of her. Sonette sighs as she takes her shoes off, then sits down in front of Amy who starts playing with her hair. "When was the last time you brushed this hair?" Amy asks.

"I don't remember." Sonette replies.

"Stay here." Amy tells her as she got up and grabs her brush, then kneels behind Sonette who sighs as Amy starts brushing her hair. "I'm sorry if I hurt you." Amy said.

"It's okay." Sonette whispers. Then Sonic and Grace walks in. Grace giggles as she walks over and Sonic smiles as he close the door and walks to the foot of the bed.

"Is father still going to take Sonette away from me?" Amy asks as she stops brushing Sonette's hair and Sonette goes into shock. Sonic sighs.

"That's what happened at breakfast sis, Lionel wants to send you to Lady Ruby. You do know what she does there, what she runs." Sonic tells her.

"Yes, she came by wanting to buy me five years ago, I know all about her. I thought she would have given up by now." Sonette explains and Sonic sighs.

"She hasn't, she wants you and I don't know why." Sonic tells her.

"I do." Grace whispers. "It because of your family's name, she isn't like the other slaves, she is from a rich family. It is a rare occasion where a rich is turn into a slave. She wants to take full advantage of that. That is why we had to keep Rose safe." Grace explains.

"The princess." Sonic said and Grace nods.

"That poor girl, thrown on a ship and sent to a place on the other side of the world. We have had that child since she was only seven years old. When she was first turn into a slave and brought here." Grace explains.

"Rose is so kind to me." Sonette whispers. "And so is April and Fire and the other servants." Sonette adds.

"That's good." Amy said.

"I should fine Rose, make sure she's okay." Sonette said.

"I rather you not leave my side." Amy tells hr and Sonette nods.

"Of course." Sonette said.

"Sonic, how did you know Rose was a princess?" Grace asks.

"Sonette told me, Rose must have told her." Sonic replies.

"She did." Sonette said.

"I see." Grace said. "I'll send April and Rose here." Grace said walking off and Sonette sighs.

"What do we do about the wedding?" Amy asks.

"We go through with it." Sonic replies and Amy nods as she looks at Sonette who was looking down. "My family should be coming tomorrow to help out." Sonic adds.

"Right." Amy said. "Do we tell them what has happened to Sonette?" Amy asks.

"No." Sonette said.

"She's right, my father and mother especially cannot find out." Sonic explains and Amy nods. "Sonia and Manic has the right to know though." Sonic adds and Sonette nods.

"Okay then, until then we keep Sonette close and away from my father." Amy said and Sonic nods. Sonette sighs as she looks out the window, she has a bad feeling and she can't shake it.
