Charles shook his head. "We are family. Family stays together." Charles shut the door to the van and climbed in the drivers seat, followed Landon, who had already drove back to the house.
-
Ann timed her kicks on the van with her screams. "Families. Don't. Rape!" She continued thrashing about, trying to get out, even as they were moving.
-
Charles pulled up into the driveway beside the now parked Mustang. Landon was already inside, waiting for his father beside the cellar door. Charles eyes were full of anger when he opened the back of the van. He grabbed Ann's arm, leaving the passed out Lily there for the moment. "It is not rape." He pulled her out of the van, shoving her towards the house. "I love you, Rose."
-
That's when Ann started crying, looking up at Charles with pleading eyes. "If you loved me, you'd let me go!" She thought of that letting something go quote, but didn't say anything else. She let tears drain down her face as she was shoved towards the house.
-
Charles didn't say anything. He pushed her through the already open front door and through the cellar door, walking her down the stairs. Landon had moved so he was sitting on the floor in the cellar, holding his nose.
-
Ann was so frustrated and scared that she tripped on the last two stairs, twisting and landing flat on her back. She screamed in agony as the whip marks protested to the sudden pressure. She was still pulling at the handcuffs, trying to slip her hands out.
-
Charles sighed, leaning down. He unlocked the handcuffs and walked back,up the stairs. He closed the door and locked it, going back outside to get Lily.
Landon got up and ran over to Ann, sitting down next to her. He picked her up and pulled her into his lap, wrapping his arms around her. "Shh.." -
Ann absentmindedly rubbed her wrists, bawling into Landon's shirt. "I told you..I told you it would be worse." She sobbed uncontrollably as the tears fell.
Meanwhile, Lily had woken up and was trying to jump start the van in an attempt to escape. She scrambled around for the correct wires, trying to remember what her older brother had shown her. -
Charles snickered when he found Lily. He walked around the car so she couldn't see him. When he was right behind her, Charles wrapped his arm around the girl's waist, pulling her towards him. "What do you think you're doing?"
Landon ran one hand over her hair, nodding. "I know..It'll be okay.." He bit down on his lip, not knowing if that statement was true anymore. "Please, don't cry.." -
Lily froze for a second, then dropped her head. She took a deep breath and stared at Charles' arms encircling her.
Ann shook her head rigorously. "It's not and you know it.." She continued to cry, trying to take deep breaths. -
Charles moved so he was beside Lily, one arm wrapped around her waist. He tugged her gently towards the house, shaking his head. "I can't believe you would try to leave me, Lily." He pulled her inside the house, shutting the door behind them.
Landon sighed and said nothing else. He just sat there stroking her hair gently, trying to sooth her even though he knew she was right. -
Lily stared miserably at the ground, leaning lightly into Charles. Somehow she found comfort in this position, even though she knew what would come later. "I..didn't want to get raped.."
Ann slipped her arms around Landon's neck, crying into his shoulder. "Wh-what's gonna happen to me..?" -
Charles shook his head slowly, opening the cellar door and walking down the steps with Lily. "It is not rape. I don't know why you all keep calling it that. We are family, and I love you girls." He leaned down and kissed Lily on her forehead before leaving the cellar.
Landon bit down on his lip. "Nothing. I won't let him do anything." -
Lily immediately lifted her foot and slammed it against the door. "Handcuffs!"
Ann shook her head. "You have no bullets for your gun... You take his beatings just as I do.. You, mm, we can't do anything." She sobbed harder, face buried in his shoulder. -
Landon sat Ann down for a second, walking over to Lily. He took her hands and unlocked the handcuffs from the bottom, tossing the silver handcuffs across the room before returning to Ann. He lifted her back into his lap, rubbing his hands up and down her back. "I know..I know.."
