Chapter Fourteen

I thought I’d be prepared for when this day came.

I’d never seen anything like that look in his eyes. Pure evil. He’d waited for this day, I could see it written all over his face.

Why did he always want to hurt me?

What had I done that made him so angry? He had some inexplicable need to exert power over me, as if I already didn’t know where my place was.

I stared into his eyes, the realization that this was about him and not me slammed into me.

My back straightened and I met his soulless eyes. I wasn’t going to keep living like this. I’d had enough.

“What did I ever do to you?” I asked. He stalled a few feet away, narrowed his eyes and looked me up and down.

“What did you ever do?” he sneered.

“Yes.” I nodded.

My body was strung tight but for the first time I felt strong.

Somewhere in the back of my mind a voice said I shouldn’t poke the beast, that I should get out of there while I still could.

I pushed that voice away. I wasn’t going down without a fight, not this time.

I was sick and tired of the way things were, having to make sure his dinner was done on time, that his socks were paired a certain way. Being careful of what clothes I wore.

He’d established early on what clothes were acceptable and what weren’t. At the time I thought it was sweet.

It wasn’t until now that I realized how much I’d let him control me. Ty and the guys had opened my eyes.

I didn’t deserve this.

“You came into my life,” he growled and pointed to his chest “You got pregnant” he turned his finger to me.

“We got-”

“YOU! It’s all your fault! You turned me into THIS.” he waved at himself.

My eyes widened, how had I turned him into this?

“No, I didn’t-”

I flinched as he flew toward me, his hands wrapping round my throat. I gasped.

“This is your fault” he spat.

He squeezed his hands tighter and pushed me back against the door. I gripped his arms, my nails digging into his clenched muscles.

I could feel myself slipping back into the box that he’d tucked me away in. If that was the only way I could survive then that’s what I’d have to do. All my earlier bravado slipped away.

“Please.” I croaked.

“You need to be taught” he sneered.

I scraped my nails down his arms digging into his flesh. I begged him to let go.

The edges of my vision blurred, I could feel the fight leaving me, my body was caving in.

Then Eli flashed in my mind. His bright green eyes begging me to stay. To fight.

I couldn’t give up.

I couldn’t leave Eli with him.

I lifted my leg and kicked out, the front of my chucks catching his shin.

“Fuck!” he let go and stumbled back rubbing his leg.

I bent forward gasping, I needed to get out of there quick, I spun around fumbling for the door handle.

I could see the apartment door from here. My escape.
