After being returned to what Bella was starting to think of as ‘their’ room, she and Alex were in for a surprise. One of the walls had a screen on it that was playing what she recognized as one of the more popular news stations, and her and Alex’s pictures were on it.

“Oh my god!” She gasped and ran forward to touch the screen as her weeping parents were shown closing their front door on the cameras after refusing to comment. Alex’s parents appeared immediately afterward doing the same. She barely noticed Alex coming up behind her or the soldier closing the door and locking them into the room.

They both recoiled when Ken’s face filled the screen.

“Bella is my girlfriend. I love her so much. I can’t believe she disappeared on the same day as my best friend. Lisa—Alex’s girlfriend—and I, are leaning on each other for support.” The camera panned out to show Lisa holding a tissue and standing beside Ken as he reached out to put his arm around her. She dabbed at her eyes, which leaked tears but weren’t at all swollen or red. Bella suspected the use of eye drops and then felt a little bad for being so cynical—but come on! “All we can do is hope for their safe return. If someone knows where they are, please contact this number.”

A phone number Bella didn’t recognize flashed across the screen. It was probably for some kind of investigative authority.

“Are you worried that they were taken by the Wolf?” one of the surrounding reporters shouted. It was always the first question everyone asked when someone was reported missing on Earth. Sometimes something else had happened to them, but everyone was always more interested in stories involving the Wolf.

Lisa sniffed delicately. “We don’t know. We haven’t received any contact from anyone about them.” And she covered her face as she appeared to burst into tears again.

Bella watched dispassionately. Had anyone bought Lisa or Ken’s act? She felt incredibly far away from them and their betrayal, as though in the couple days she’d been missing, she’d already become a different person. And wasn’t that true? Her priorities, her motivations, and her thinking had realigned to deal with the situation she was in now. Lisa and Ken seemed so very small by comparison.

“Attention whores,” Alex said, just behind her, and Bella turned to look up at him.

He didn’t look angry, just disdainful. Contemptuous. And that was exactly how Bella felt. While her parents and his waited for some kind of contact, some indication of what had happened to their son and daughter, Ken and Lisa were putting on a show for the masses. One that was patently false.

Although…

“Maybe they’re feeling guilty,” Bella said, her voice empty of any sympathy.

Alex snorted. “That’s possible. Whatever. So, obviously we’ve been reported missing.” He raised his voice enough to drown out the words coming from the television. Ken was saying something more. Bella decided it wasn’t important and turned her back on his face to watch Alex throw himself down on the bed.

“Yeah… How long do you think it will take for them to figure out where we are?”

He shrugged. “I guess it depends on when the Wolf releases that other girl… Abby. She’ll be able to tell everyone that she saw us.”

Bella approached the bed, hesitant to ask, but she really wanted to know. “What did the Wolf want you to do in exchange for lunch?”

Alex turned his head away from her as she sat down on the edge of the bed. Even though she was naked, for the first time, she didn’t bother trying to cover herself. What was the point? And being naked was starting to feel almost natural.

“He wanted me to suck his dick.”

“And you didn’t.”

“No.”

There was a long pause while Bella tried to think of what to say next and to block out the news story droning on in the background. The broadcast had moved on to popular analysts, who were talking about all the facts and figures of the disappearances of Moon family members on Earth and how many of them were eventually revealed as captives of the Wolf.

“I’m going to have to eventually,” Alex said softly. He looked back at her, his expression troubled. “He made it clear that I won’t get a meal until I do.”

“So why didn’t you today?”

He shrugged and looked away again. “I don’t know. Pride. To show him that I wouldn’t just give up immediately. To show him that he can’t control everything.”

“You need to eat, Alex.”

“I know. I will.”

Eventually.

He didn’t say it, but the word hung in the air. Bella chewed on her lower lip; Alex wouldn’t be eating today. He was making some kind of stand that was important to him. And to be honest, Bella wished she could do the same. Salvage something of her pride. But she was also back to worrying that when Alex did finally bend, it would be because he’d been broken.

“Come here, Bella, stop worrying.” Alex held out his arm. Bella crawled up beside him and lay down with her head on his shoulder. He was so big and muscled, a firm anchor for her to cling to. Maybe she shouldn’t worry about him breaking, but she wasn’t afraid of being alone in this situation. “I can hear your thoughts running around your head.”

“I’m scared, Alex,” she whispered.

“I know, sweetheart. But we can get through this. We can. It’s just games. He’s playing lots of nasty little games. But we can survive, and we can win by getting free.”

With the way she’d pinned down Trish today and how disassociated Bella felt from her former life, would she still like herself by the time the Wolf was done with his nasty little games? Maybe winning wasn’t survival; maybe it was staying true to herself. That’s what Alex was doing. That’s why he’d gone without lunch today.

And what had she done? She’d forced Trish to orgasm for the entertainment of the Wolf and his soldiers.

Maybe she should stop worrying about Alex and start worrying more about herself.

* * *

Alex cuddled Bella against him and reviewed what he’d learned so far about the Wolf and the compound they were living in. There had to be a reason the news story had been showing in their prison. To show him and Bella they were being missed? To mess with their heads about their exes? Or just to remind them why they should behave so they could get home?

Bella’s breathing evened out as she fell asleep, which didn’t surprise him. They’d been woken fairly early, exercised, and then she’d had an emotionally and physically charged interaction in front of a large audience. His stomach growled and tightened. Alex was tired too—not for the same reasons, but because he’d exercised and then not been able to replenish his energy.

Eventually, he would have to eat. His body demanded it. And if he was going to stay in good enough shape to escape, then eating would be necessary. But he wouldn’t just give in to the Wolf, either. He’d learned a lot, listening to the men around the dais talking while Bella and Trish had been on the bed.

Like that none of the Wolf’s men were particularly concerned about the kidnapping. But their attitudes had been more than indifference. Their tone had conveyed their belief that Alex, Bella, and Trish deserved what was happening to them. Not personally, but in general, because they were from the Moon families.

Why did they feel that way? And how he could use it? If he and Bella were ever going to find an ally to help them—which he wouldn’t discount, even if he wasn’t going to hope for it—they would have to be someone. So, he needed to find out why these people weren’t.

He didn’t know when he fell asleep, but he must have because he jerked awake when the door opened to admit three guards. Bella stirred beside him, snuggling even further and pressing her soft curves into his side. Alex shifted to try to push her further behind him, away from the door, not that it mattered. It was just instinct.

He and Bella were escorted to the bathroom to do their necessary business before being taken back to the room where the Wolf held court. That was how Alex was beginning to think of it: a barbarian King with his barbarian court.

Smells assaulted him from every side as he and Bella entered the room, savory and incredibly appealing. He nearly groaned as his stomach rumbled and tightened, completely empty and ravenous. His mouth watered, and he felt light-headed from not having eaten since early that morning. This was the first time in his life he’d ever gone without food for this long, and he’d never felt anything like it.

“Hungry, Moon Boy?” One of the soldiers sneered as Alex’s stomach rumbled again. “Must be for the first time in your life, huh?”

The goons laughed as they pushed him forward. Bella shot him little, worried looks. As much as he would have liked to reassure her, the room was too loud for her to hear him if he spoke quietly, and he doubted the soldiers would let him lean in. The derision in their voices was obvious as they made several more remarks about how hungry he must be and how he’d be eating the Wolf’s cock soon enough.

The slow burn of anger curled in his stomach and helped distract him from the hungry pangs that were almost painful.

Fuck them.

He and Bella were led up to the stage where the Wolf was talking and joking with some of his men. Jordan was there, which meant Trish was. She was dressed in a very low-cut, dove-gray dress that was loose on the top and had a short, flowy skirt. Her big, blue eyes were fixed on Bella, her expression anxious. She was tucked up under Jordan’s arm with no way to approach them, but Alex thought Trish looked like she wanted to reassure Bella, who was obviously having trouble looking at the other woman.

The Wolf looked up and grinned as he saw them approach.

“Ah… it’s my sweet anal virgin,” he said, spurring a bout of laughter round the room. Bella’s face turned beet red. “Don’t worry Pet, we won’t be taking that last cherry this evening… but I don’t want people to think I’m cruel. We can help prepare you for when we do.”

His broad wink at his audience made sure all eyes were on him, center-stage on the dais.

* * *

Bella tried to be strong and not make Alex’s situation worse when he was obviously feeling weak from lack of food. She stifled her whimper as one of the soldiers pulled her up onto the stage. An apparatus was pulled out from underneath the table there—like a smaller table, but slightly lower and much narrower. One of the soldiers bent her over it before kicking her legs apart and securing her ankles to the base.

One board ran down the front of her body, right between her breasts, allowing her head to hang off the end. There was a support beam, perpendicular to the board that held up her body, with places for her wrists to be secured. She saw Alex watching from the corner of her eye, and he looked grim but, for once, he wasn’t protesting.

Maybe he was finally learning how to bend. Or maybe he was too tired and weak.

She avoided looking at Trish, although she could feel the other woman’s eyes on her. Too much guilt welled up inside of Bella every time she did.

“Ready for your plug, Pet?”

Bella tensed as much as she was able with her legs apart the way they were. It didn’t do anything to help shield her vulnerable asshole.

Smack !

She yelped as a hard hand slapped against her ass, hard enough to feel as though it had left an imprint behind.

“I asked you a question, Pet.”

God, she hated him. If only he would just do it, but no… he had to ask. Had to make her participate, just like he had at lunch. She’d forced herself on Trish because he’d demanded a show.

Smack !

His hand came down on the other side of her ass and made her jerk against the restraints as her cheek burned.

The Wolf chuckled. “It looks like Toy has been rubbing off on Pet.” The way he said it made the statement into a lascivious double-entendre. “Do you want to be punished, Pet? Is that what you’re asking for?”

“No, Sir.” Fear easily outweighed pride. Although her voice was soft, he heard her anyway. A gentle hand stroked down her flank, as if soothing the burn from his slap away, a reward for her response.

“Good girl. Are you ready for your plug now?”

“Yes, Sir.”

She hated how easily she’d submitted, how quickly she’d given in, but Bella wanted this over with as quickly as possible. What did it matter what she said, anyway? Deep down, she knew the truth. Everyone else in the room probably did too, even if they didn’t care.

The hard tip of rubber pressed wetly against her anus and pushed in. Bella shuddered and squeezed down automatically, trying to keep it out.

Smack !

Another resounding slap on her ass, this time directly on top of the place he’d first spanked her, and Bella howled. Her muscles spasmed, and the plug slid in deeper.

“Relax, Pet.” The Wolf began to work a couple inches of the plug in and out of her asshole. The tight ring of muscle burned as it stretched around the rubber, forced to open a bit wider with every millimeter of length that pushed in. “Hmmm… Pet might need help relaxing. Who would like to help her?”

There was a sudden flurry of shouting as people volunteered. Laughing, the Wolf pointed at a woman near the front. Bella turned her head, anxious to see the stranger approaching. Dressed in camo pants and a black tank-top, the woman was both muscular and utterly feminine. Her bright red hair was pulled back into a ponytail, and she looked at Bella with undisguised lust.

Then Bella couldn’t see her as the woman moved behind her. But she could feel the woman’s slender fingers on her thighs, her hot breath wafting against her pussy.

“Nnooooooo,” Bella moaned as the woman began to lick at her cunt, her tongue sliding up the very center and wiggling around. Bella’s muscles clenched, but that didn’t stop the spasm of unwanted pleasure that rippled through her. She turned her head away from the gathered crowd that watched her humiliation as the tip of the plug slid back into her virgin asshole.

She didn’t want to enjoy what was happening to her, not any part. It would have made it easier on her, but she didn’t get a choice. The woman had obviously volunteered to eat Bella’s pussy out of sincere desire. She licked and sucked on Bella’s pussy lips with sexual hunger, her tongue wriggling and questing and sliding into Bella’s hole. Every time that clever tongue slid down to tease Bella’s clit, her hips jerked upward and pushed the plug deeper.

Slowly, her asshole opened up under the steady pressure of the plug, the slick thrusts in and out. It burned. It was uncomfortable. She felt full. And yet she got more and more turned-on. Not everything about the fullness and probing felt bad—in fact, the closer she came to orgasm, the better it felt. Bella gritted her teeth and tried to stave off the pleasure, determined not to cum for their entertainment.

A sharp pinching flash of pain flared through her as the widest part of the plug was forced past her sphincter, and Bella cried out in shock. She panted, her asshole clenching around the large invader, which was bigger than the one the doctor had put in her the day before. The redhead’s tongue still lashed at Bella’s pussy, and then her lips wrapped around Bella’s clit, and she sucked. Hard.

The combination of fullness in her asshole and the steady stimulation of her pussy was too much. Bella moaned in denial as the itch in her pussy throbbed and exploded. Her hips moved up and down as the woman continued to suck and lick at the sensitive pleasure-organ. That soft tongue licked up her juices as Bella shuddered and came and came…

“Mmmm delicious.” The woman’s voice reached Bella’s ears through the sexual haze she’d lost herself in. It sounded fuzzy and far away. “She’s very sweet.”

“Isn’t she?” The Wolf sounded amused. “Thank you, Sylvia. Brick and Paul come here. You’ve earned rewards today. Choose which of you gets her mouth and which of you gets her pussy.”

“Please nooooo,” Bella begged, looking up at the men who approached. They were already hard from watching the entertainment, and their eyes locked onto her body and filled with desire. It was useless to beg, but she tried anyway.

“I like shutting a bitch up—I’ll take her mouth,” one of them said, laughing. He was huge, a mountain of a man, and the thing she was bent over and attached to put her at the perfect height against his crotch. “Open up, Pet… and if you bite me, the Wolf will let me have you for the night.”

Bella shuddered and looked over at the Wolf, but he’d already lost interest and was walking toward where Alex knelt on the ground, between two soldiers.

She didn’t know if the soldier was right about the Wolf lending her to him for the night, but going by the hard, cruel smile on his face, she didn’t want to find out. Obediently, Bella opened her mouth and stifled a sob as he jammed his cock between her lips.

The man took a firm grip on her hair and leveraged her head back so he could more easily fuck her face. His cock was fat and long, and shoved deep into her throat—and Bella had another opportunity to be thankful for the gag-reflex gel Doctor Monroe had given her. Otherwise, she’d probably be choking on her own vomit instead of just struggling to breathe around the massive piece of equipment.

Another thick cock speared her from behind, shoving a couple inches into her tight pussy before it had to retreat and make another assault. Bella screamed as her insides burned; she was so full from the plug in her ass that it made her other tunnel even tighter than usual, and it burned as the man forcibly pushed his cock into her.

“Awww fuck, that feels good—make her do that again,” the one in her mouth said gruffly, his head tipping back as he thrust his hips forward. The one behind her drew his hips back, his fingers digging into her sides, and then plunged forward again, this time filling her completely. Bella’s gargled scream vibrated along the cock stuck in her throat as tears filled her eyes.

“Fuck, she’s so tight.” The one behind her rubbed his body against hers. Her sensitive pussy lips sparked and flared, still swollen from her orgasm, and she clenched around him as his body jostled the plug in her ass.

They began thrusting, taking turns, so each jab of cock in her throat pushed her slightly back onto the one driving into her pussy, and that pushed her back onto the man fucking her face. Bella moaned and shuddered, breathing deeply whenever she could. The huge soldier using her mouth fucked her just as hard and rough as the one in her pussy, his big cock battering her throat. She pulled at her restraints instinctively, trying to get away, but there was nowhere to go.

The one behind her leaned over, his body grinding into hers as he reached underneath Bella and cupped her breasts. More tears gathered in her eyes as her body responded. It wasn’t her fault she was still sensitive from her orgasm on the woman’s tongue! If she hadn’t been, this wouldn’t be doing anything for her, but the lingering pleasure built again, despite the burning of Bella’s throat and her utter disgust with the situation. The soldier rolled her hard nipples between his fingers, tugging painfully on them and making her pussy tighten around him.

“Aaahhh fuck yeah… work that ass against me, baby.” He moaned and pinched her nipples tighter, making her writhe. She squealed and spasmed as his body rubbed against the base of the plug, making it move inside her.

The beast in her mouth began to move faster, harder, and Bella got less and less air. She began to panic, but there was nothing she could do. She started to feel dizzy and disoriented. As she gasped and struggled to breathe, the strangest sense of euphoria began to well up inside her, on a straight line from her head to her pussy.

No … No, this couldn’t be happening. Not like this.

The oxygen depletion made her body hum and buzz even more; the man hammering into her pussy made her shudder and clench. The edges of her vision started to look black just as the man in front of her gave a shout and shoved his cock all the way, burying her nose in his pubic hair. Her throat spasmed around his cock, milking it, and Bella struggled to swallow the copious amount of cum that flowed straight down into her belly.

Behind her, the other man reared back, his hands on her hips again, and fucked her for all he was worth. Her body tightened, inevitable, even as she internally wailed in protest.

The orgasm was like a shockwave, sending fireworks ricocheting through her body. In the blackness that grew on her vision, Bella saw bright white sparks of ecstasy. Writhing, shuddering, her entire body was consumed by the rapture, caught in a place where pain and pleasure became one, and she was lost in the burning euphoria.

* * *

The Wolf gripped Alex’s hair as they watched his men raping Bella; the front of his pants bulged with his cock. For once, Alex managed to keep his own erection down, even when Bella started to respond to the brutal fucking. He could tell she was coming, but he could also tell from the glassy look in her eyes that wherever her head was, it wasn’t here and now. She looked barely cognizant of what went on around her.

Alex was too distracted by the food people were eating to be turned on. The smells and sights of people eating were enough to make him a little crazed. Would he be willing to suck the Wolf’s cock already if it weren’t for those soldiers tweaking his pride?

As if reading his thoughts, the Wolf looked down and aggressively pulled Alex’s hair back so he was forced to look up and meet the man’s gaze.

“Well, Toy? Are you ready to eat yet?”

“Fuck off.” Alex repeated his words from before, but even he could hear how they didn’t have the same impact. The same determination.

The Wolf chuckled, not at all perturbed. “You’ll be sucking my cock soon enough, Toy. I can wait.”

His green eyes glittered with anticipation. Alex wanted to jerk his head away, to look somewhere else, to deny the Wolf’s words, but the man was right. The Wolf held Alex’s gaze for one more long second and then released his head, allowing it to fall forward. Alex panted, feeling strangely violated by that intense gaze.

He looked up and was swamped by shame for feeling that way. Two soldiers were undoing Bella’s restraints, and she was hung limply, shuddering all over as she gasped for air. Cum dripped down her inner thighs, and she looked completely wrung out.

The two soldiers who had used her left Bella hanging there, and the expressions of the men freeing her said that they would rather have taken the previous soldiers’ places than let her go. Alex burned with anger, all too aware of how weak he was.

Tomorrow, he would give in to the Wolf. Not because he couldn’t bear to be hungry, but because he needed his strength if they were ever going to escape. His pride would take the hit, but if that’s what he had to do in order to stay fit and healthy enough to be able to help Bella, then that’s what he would do.
