♧♧£ Lae £♧♧
While Ax is in the dungeon I gather the files and make the appointments he wanted. I place the files in nice piles on the shelf. I take five files to read over and start making notes.
When Ax comes back I smiles as he walk in but something is wrong he can't even look at me.
"Is anything wrong?" I am worried
He seems to take a deep breath, "Claude asked to speak to me again. How many men have you slept with?"
I freeze and I feel all the color in my face drain. "Does it matter?"
"Please be honest with me. I need to know."
"I don't know. A lot. I was forced to work for two years to keep my sister safe. I told you at 16 I was given the choice of whoring or stealing. I chose to be a thief because I hated being a whore."
"So you slept with men from 14 to 16?Claude said you were very good at your job. Is that true?" he asked
Why was he asking me this now? Why did it matter? I felt my world falling apart again.
"I had to be. After the first few times of the pain of being forced I found that if I controlled them then it was a lot better on me. I got to know the best way to satisfy the men that paid that bastard to sleep with me. I never got a single jewel for going through all of that pain and suffering."
I had to get out of there. I know he hated me now and I could not stand to see the hatred in his eyes. Where should I go?
I had to get out side. Find a river near by to drown my shame in. I ran out and to the stables.
"I need a horse to do errands with for Commander Tenninax."
They did not even questioned me as they saddled the horse. I got on and rode.
I was not sure where I was even going I just had to get away from it all. I made it all the way into town but I felt that they were seeing how dirty I was too so I turned and rode back out of town.
I stopped by a grove of trees to gather my thoughts.
I had thought I put all of that behind me two years ago.. I pretend to be another person to get through what that man made me do. That is why I would never let Daisy be put through all that.
I knew I could never find a true love that would not care what happened to me but I hoped I was wrong.
As I sit there on my horse I feel a pain and I am on the ground. I reach back and the back of my head is bleeding.
"Good shot Joe. You got him with one shot. Mister if you want to live give us all your jewels."
"I don't have any." I say. I then get kicked by the man named Joe. I double over. I distract them and try to run but the pain in my ribs and head slow me down and the distraction wears off and they are after me. Half way through the grass they catch me and both are hitting and kicking me. The pain in my chest, head, and leg get so bad I pass out.
I wake up with no pain and I'm in a beautiful garden with two paths. I see a young girl playing.
"Excuse me, where are we?" I ask.
The child laughs. "Uncle Rose you are in the cross roads."
"Who are you?"
"I have no name yet. My mommy has not thought of one. My brother is Ken. I like him he is funny."
Ken is the name of Ax's nephew. This must be the child his sister is carrying. That means I must be dead.
"Am I dead?"
"Silly Uncle no, this is the cross roads. Mabel sent me to keep you company."
"Why?"
"My power is to heal. Tell me why you are broken so I can heal you."
I pause, I can not tell this child about the disgusting things that keep me broken. I shake me head no, "I can't."
She walkes over and pulls me down to the ground. She then sits on my lap.
"Let me tell you a story.:
Once there was White Rose that grew in a garden of weeds. The Rose did not know it was a special flower because it was surrounded by many flowers that were nothing special and they told him he was the ugly one.
One day a soldier who was coming home from war seen the rose and picked it for he wanted to bring a gift back for his true love.
Along the way he passed many wounded soldiers and he started to remember all the men he had to kill and with each tear the rose turned redder and redder. When he got home he no longer wanted to give the stained rose to his love but when she seen it she said 'This is a rose to remind me of all that you sacrificed to bring freedom. It will remind us who was killed and who died by your side. This Rose may be stained but it still smells beautiful and its name is still Laevigatae."
I listened to her. My name means a single white flowered rose and I am stained red. I was stained to save my sister so she could stay pure. I am not dirty but a warrior who was injured in battle.
"Thank you, you are a great healer. If you could have any name you wanted what would it be?"
She smiled and whispers in my ear, "Mindy for I mend people." she then giggles.
"Uncle Ten is waiting for you Uncle Rose. It's time to go back. You will be really beat up but you will feel no pain while you heal. If I was in my body I would heal your booboo too now but all I can do is heal your sole to start with."
I turn and when I turn back she is gone. I then close my eyes and when I open them I see Ax looking down at me.
I try to smile but my face is swollen. She was right I feel no pain.
