Chapter 5

Brianna let a horrified scream escape her mouth and turned her back to run.
But run where ?

"Ahab ! Help ! Somebody call for ..."she screamed but the silent attackers didn't allow her any more words or time to react.

Two of them pushed her violently on the bed and held her still with her hands behind her back.

As she started screaming again for help the third man gagged her quickly with a dirty rag.
The rag was soaked with a bitter in taste liquid that immediately made her feel so sick that the woman thought that she will throw up immediately.

The other two tied her hands with ropes and leather straps ,that they had brought with them and the fourth man grabbed her feet and tied her ankles together tightly with something that looked like an old  belt.

The sharp pain from her bondages that dug in her soft complexion around her ankles, calves and wrists was something that she had never experienced in her entire life.
The moments passed in almost absolute silence.
Her heart was pumping wildly in her chest and regrets and thoughts of all kinds came suddenly rushing inside her mind.

"Perhaps if i let them have me they will take what they want and leave",she thought for a moment.
It was very difficult to admit her defeat but she was a smart woman determined to survive no matter the cost.

"But  even if they rape me who knows that this will be the end ? "she thought again trying to find a way to remove the gage.

She should find a way to talk with them and outsmart this brute's somehow.

They had all the time to loot the house but they didn't.
What else this animals wanted from her ?

Then one of the men grabbed her hair and pulled her head backwards locking his grey eyes with hers .
And there was no life inside them.
His eyes were similar to the ones of a dead man, cold and lost like the eternity.
But was very real and alive.
Then one of his horrible companions took one of the ropes and made a loop around her neck from behind.

This is the way that he decided to kill her ?

Brianna started crying hysterically thinking that this must be her end but the man slapped her with the back of his hand and placed his hand over her  mouth and nose.

As her hot tears rolled over from her pale from the fear cheeks one of the men whispered some words in a language that brought old and dark memories in her mind.

The hands of the men were rough and full of small triangle scars ...and this tattoos on their wrists ! This murderers were not unknown to her from somewhere ...
Somewhere that she couldn't remember right now off course.

"- Is the scroll inside your house Brianna ? Tell us and we will ...not kill your pitiful mortal body  ! " ,the man whispered with his hoarse voice.

Brianna felt the cold sweat all around her body and shivering from fear she shook her head negatively.
She wasn't sure about what he was talking about.

One of the other hooded men took out a small curved knife and cut with one violent movement her garment ,exposing completely her white naked back.

"You want to feel the wrath of the divine justice of the God of your ancestors ? If you want more pain and fear I will give them to you unfaithful slat ! " the same man hissed angrily.

Then the same man grabbed a thin metallic cane on his left hand and the others tie her ankles again this time on a short wooden plank that they had.

"Please no ... please  ! she tried to shoute  but her entreaties were ignored.

Brianna turned her head just in time to understand what the man was about to do to her.

Falaka was its name.

She knew that this type of torture was only for people of very low social status like her female servants who sometimes
made unforgivable mistakes and deserved, as Brianna believed, few good lashes on their lazy feet from their masters.

She had seen the process and heard the servant girls screamed from pain but she never experienced it by herself.

This was the most painful and humiliated punishment that a human being could received in his entire life.

The man started ruthlessly to stroke Brianna small bare feet again and again despite her screams and pleadings to stop.

" Cry and repent deserter of the true faith ! You shall receive no mercy until God's forgive you ! " an other man shouted angrily with fanatism.

"We have a place for you in our temple" ,the other added hissing angrily.
"You will meet your sisters in sin who spend their days in chains ! "

All the strokes aimed directly at the archers of her soles until a female voice commanded him to stop.

As the helpless Brianna was sobbing with her face covered from her long auburn hair ,another masked person entered the room.

The figure wore the same garments as the men that held her captive and approached her captors silently.

Few moments passed in absolutely silence.
Then a female voice came cold like ice to Briannas ears and made her heart stop.

" Brianna my lost daughter you remember me ? ,she said with a calm but full of hate voice to the terrifying girl, "You took something that is not yours and we learned that you lie also with one of the Order knights named Greyson..."

Brianna heart stop once again.
How her captor knew all this things ?

"We came to remind you who you really are and take you back to me ! You should suffer for your sins until your soul returns in its previous pure condition ! "the female voice added fondling her naked hips.
