Page 36 of His Toy

When the Wolf pulled away, Alex’s eyes opened again, and he glared up at the Wolf before looking down at the ground. It was oddly submissive and seemed wrong.

“Good Toy.” The Wolf patted Alex on the head absentmindedly, as though now that Alex had given in, the Wolf had lost interest. He looked over at one of the guards who still hovered behind Alex—the soldier was grinning from ear to ear—and waved his hand. “Take Toy back to the room and feed him.”

Alex’s head swung upwards again to look over at her. “Bella…”

“Ah yes… Pet will stay with me for the afternoon.”

“Bella!” Alex lunged, but the guards caught him.

“Alex, just go!” Bella said loudly enough for him to hear her. The Wolf had returned to ignoring them as he walked back around the table. He didn’t look up at Bella’s insistence that Alex leave or watch Alex struggle against the guards. Bella glared at Alex; his stubborn reluctance was written clearly across his face. “Go.”

Her voice dropped to a whisper, but she couldn’t stand to see him tormented further because he thought she would be unsafe unless he was there. What could he do to protect her anyway? She felt better when he was there, but practically, he couldn’t help her at all.

The guards dragged Alex away, and Bella’s heart sank as she watched him go. When the Wolf spoke again, she shivered and goosebumps covered her body.

“Come here, Pet.”

The guards joked and laughed as they dragged Alex back to the room.

“Thanks.” One of them patted his back as they pushed him into the room. “We won a hundred bucks each after you held out till today!”

“Longest any of these whining Moon Boys has ever gone,” the other said, laughing.

That was when Alex recognized them as the same guards who had pricked his pride the evening before by taunting him. Even with his brain fogged by shame and hunger, he realized they had done it on purpose. They’d been part of a bet about when he would eat. What kind of people did that?

And he wasn’t the first, either. Others had been subjected to the same treatment. He supposed he should feel glad he’d lasted longer than any of them.

“You’d probably be whining too if you had to go without food for that long,” Alex snapped at them.

They just laughed.

“If you were from Earth, you’d know that most of us have gone that long without eating, and not by choice, like you. Now stop whining and be thankful you get to eat at all,” the first one said, smirking at him. He pointed at the table. “They’ll bring more solid food in a couple of hours.”

A clear broth and some bread waited for him, along with something that looked like fruit juice. The door closed while he looked at the food. His reflexes were all messed up.

He needed to eat. Prepare. Get himself back together because, right now, he needed to be as strong as possible. Not a whiny Moon Boy.

And hope that nothing awful was happening to Bella while he wasn’t there.

Bella approached the Wolf, who was sitting at his table. He didn’t look at her; he just snapped his fingers and pointed at a spot on the floor next to his chair. There was already a cushion sitting there, waiting for her. Bella kept her head down, not wanting to look at anyone, and knelt on top of it.

As if she were an actual Pet, the Wolf reached out and began to stroke her hair while he talked with the man who sat to his left. Bella tried not to let herself feel as though the motions were in any way soothing. Though he treated her almost gently at times, he could be incredibly brutal, as well. Not just in his own actions, but because he could pass her off to anyone at any time.

The thought made her shiver. More than one man and woman who came up to speak with the Wolf gave Bella a lascivious look as he pet her and fed her from his plate. She stayed quiet and tried to fade into the background, where most people seemed to relegate her.

Being silent had its own rewards. She heard several of the men talking about the money they’d either won or lost betting on when Alex would give in and suck the Wolf’s cock. Several of them seemed impressed Alex had held out as long as he had; others were more derogatory, though even they were surprised at his continued resistance. The latter were the ones who sneered at her, as if her own meek behavior was nothing less than they expected. The Wolf spoke with Jordan and some of his other soldiers about a warehouse they were watching.

And, most importantly, she learned the main entrance to the compound was on the northeast side. Surely, that knowledge could help her and Alex.

Just after that, the Wolf pulled her by her hair over his lap so her bottom was turned up as if asking for a spanking, and her head, arms, and legs hung down toward the floor. Bella shivered as he stroked her bottom. How much of her body was on display, even from behind his desk? Surely, everyone who came up to speak with him could see what he was doing, but none of them said a word.

“Oh!” she cried out as a slick finger prodded her asshole. She was pretty sure it was the Wolf’s. It dipped into her virgin ass, stretching the little hole and making her tense all over.

Never knowing what the Wolf would do was the worst part, and Bella dreaded when he would finally take her anal virginity. But sometimes—like right now—she almost wished he would do it and get it over with and stop tormenting her. The first finger was joined by a second that stretched the small orifice and made her whimper again.
