Revenge

She fell into the hallway with a thud onto the floor.  Before she could scramble to her feet, a hand grabbed her by the hair and slammed her into the wall.

His breath was hot and reeked of alcohol on the side of her face."So this is where youre hiding you little bitch" he snarled into her ear " thought you'd run away did you? Well dont worry, you wont get the chance again, I'll make sure of it."  He ran his tongue up the side of her face and she screwed her eyes up, swallowing the bile rising in her throat.  Why oh why had she left Tom? And how in gods name had David found her now, after all this time. Just as she was trying to gather her wits, he pulled he roughly by the hair and dragged her into the living room.  "So you remember our little arrangement? It never ended. Get on your knees and ask forgiveness whore. " he spat the words at her, throwing her to the floor, landing on the coffee table which broke, sending the vase and flowers crashing to the floor and she felt her ribs contact with the wood as it splintered.  Something inside her screamed 'save yourself' and she tried to get to her feet , screaming at him to leave her alone."Im NOT a whore David. I never was" she yelled, picking up a shard of table as a weapon. For a moment he looked shocked at her temerity, standing open mouthed and motionless.  She bolted for the door and would have made it if she hadnt tripped over a bag lying where she'd discarded it after her shopping spree the other day. She fell with a thud, cursing.  David seemed to wake up at that and in a stride was beside her, bending over, grabbing her wrists and dragging her back into the room.  She started to yell so he slapped her , hard. Shocked, she stopped.

He threw he on the sofa.  As he stood over her, he sneered." you wondering how i found you?" He grabbed her face in his large hand, squeezing her chin, " you should be more careful who you talk to on facebook my dear. Not everyone thinks im a monster " he leant down over her, again his breath hot on her face.  She closed her eyes and tried to squirm away."Oh no you dont. Youre still mine to do with as i want.  I warned you, run and I'd mark you. Defy me again and , well maybe I should pay your new friend a little visit ?" She opened her eyes in terror, no, not Tom. Dont touch Tom she thought. "Awww so he means that much eh? The whore and the gentleman. So touching" he emphasised the last word by wrenching her onto her feet. "Now, its been a while. I want to see what you remember. Close the shutters. " she didnt move, just stared at the floor trying to remain calm. "CLOSE THEM" he bellowed raising his fist. For a second she looked into his eyes so full of hate, so different from Tom's in every way. Then all she saw was stars as his hand smacked off her jaw. She tasted blood, a little dribbled out the corner of her mouth.  Knowing she was in real danger she complied, closing them then coming to kneel at his feet the way he liked. "Good girl" he nodded, his hand csressing her face, his fingers finding the blood.  She glanced up to see him studying it carefully before he licked them clean.

Oh.my.god. she thought, he's completely derranged. She felt tears burn in her eyes.  Im going to die she thought, hes going to kill me. And i never told Tom.... he thoughts were interrupted."Right. We have privacy from those nosey neighbours. Now strip.""What?" She whispered. "You heard me. Strip. Allof it, no wait, all bar the shirt. I like the shirt. NOW!" Slowly, she stood and removed her clothes. Piece by piece, as if she was about to be tortured, which in truth, she knew she was. When all was gone, bar the white linen, she stood, hands over herself, waiting. He approached her, knelt before her and pulled up her shirt." have you fucked him?" Was all he said, stroking her while she gagged inwardly "No" she hissed defiantly, clamping her legs together." lets see shall we?""No" she hissed again and instantly regretted it. He yanked her down on the floor in front of him. "What did I tell you about defying me, bitch" he said coldly. " you get that one for free".He stood up and removed his jeans and shoes. She wanted to close her eyes so badly but she was terrified she may never open them if she did. She watched as he knelt back down between her legs. His face an emotionless mask. He pulled her legs towards him, without speaking he buried himself in her. It hurt like hell but she remained silent. Her only means of defiance left to her. Then he lurched forward to lie on top.  His hands pawed her roughly under her shirt. She turned away and saw the broken vase on the floor and the yellow roses. She cried. He stopped only to fall asleep on her briefly. He was too heavy to push off and she was afraid if he woke, he would punish her more.  So she waited. He repeated the cycle twice more. Finally he was done.  He stood in the darkened room and threw her on the sofa."Sleep, and dont think of trying to escape. I've locked all the doors and I have the keys. You cannot get out so dont try" he turned on his heel and went to the bedroom. She had no more tears to cry so she curled up into a ball , exhausted. Please God , she thought. Let me live."
