(Glad you liked it, I was laughing as I wrote it out, just seemed to fit the bill. BTW she has no memory before confinement with Ryker and I left it open ended so it could be from her subconscious shutting out painful memories or it could be something Ryker did. Your choice if you want.

Eliana gave an exasperated sigh, "But you people created me in the first place." With that she dropped the subject, it would just go round in circles like it usually did. She laid there and stared blankly at the ceiling unsure what else she could or should say. Yes she wanted freedom but she didn't trust anyone here. About the only thing she trusted was that they didn't want her dead, because if they did she probably would be by now. "How about you loosen the restraints and I will attempt not to hurt you?

Adrian wrapped his arms around Willow and allowed her to bury her face in the crook of his neck. "Its ok, I would probably miss them more if I didn't have a friend like you to keep me company. And you have no family to care for you, so you have a right to be selfish. If you like I can be your surrogate family." He said warmly as he pulled her back from him so he could look in her eyes. He wanted her to see that she should not be ashamed and that he was ok with who she was.
