Chapter 28
For a moment I didn't recognize where I was, my whole body sore....like I had been running over by a truck...
My legs felt like jelly as I adjusted to a sitting position, the sheets came off, his already dried semen still coated my thighs.
Memories of last night flooded like running waters...
Somewhere in my head, I had prayed I wouldn't wake up, or I would awake and it would all be a nightmare.....a bad dream.
Only it wasn't. It happened.
It was all too real.
I winced at the pain between my legs as I made my way out of the bed.
I slowly made my way to the door I assumed was the bathroom, I was right.
I was too preoccupied with myself to take any details of my surrounding.
I caught sight of myself in the mirror, I almost didn't recognize the girl that stared back at me.
My grey eyes were dull, it reflected how numb I felt inside,
I looked like a broken doll.
My hair was wild and all over the place, I had bite marks all over.
His marks. .. my neck... shoulders...stomach... they were already turning into a dark shade of purple.
I could have cried at the sight, but I didn't... My eyes remained dried.
Maybe my mind was still in a state of shock, It was just blank, ...just. like an empty shell.
A broken one.
I turned on the shower, it was warm against my skin, I don't know how long I stayed under the hot spray, I kept staring at the water flowing inside the drain..... wished it could sail me along with it.
That it could set me free.
I closed my eyes for some time, when I open them, he was right there.
A pair of green gazes staring right back at me.
I didn't even hear him approach, I stared back at his unflinching stare... his gaze revealed nothing.
Who knew such beautiful eyes could hold such cruelties?
Something passed between us and miraculously he averted his gaze first.
He'd gotten what he wanted... His revenge against me should be over.
He broke me. I feel like I was beyond redemption.
He turned off the knob of the shower, I flinched when he wrapped his fingers around mine as we walked out of the bathroom
"I want to go home " I started not caring about my naked state.
There was no point.
I gave them another flinch when he wrapped a fluffy white towel around my body.
"I want to go home " I repeated more forcefully this time
Without a reply, he walked to the drawer beside his bed, withdrew something white from a small bottle, and held out to me...
I stared mutely at the pill in his hands then back to him.
"You don't want to get pregnant do you? " he snapped sounding impatient
His words took me by surprise, I had forgotten all about it, he had released inside of me twice last night.
I accepted it from him and gulped it down with the glass of water he had provided without a second thought.
I had thought there couldn't be anything worse than my present predicament... but there was.
I refused to imagine ever getting pregnant by him.
That fate would be worse than death itself.
He took the glass from my hand and placed it back on top of the drawer.
I noticed the room was completely cleaned, unlike when I had first woken up, he must have done it while I showered.
Then where were my clothes?
"You aren't going to leave " he stated approaching me
I took a faltering step backward, I wanted to go away from here... anywhere away from him.
"You wouldn't leave, for your family's sake you won't bunny " he stated looking dead serious
My heart rate piqued with worry at his words.....this was the first time I felt anything since I awoke to this nightmare
"My family? What's going to happen to them? "
"You are just too naive for your own good, too kind.... they didn't fight for you, why do you still care about them? they don't deserve it "
I wouldn't allow him to manipulate me into believing that, if it weren't for him and his sick revenge, all these wouldn't have been happening.
He only was the villain, no one else.
After the cruel things, he did to me last night.
He had raped me. In the worst of ways.
I knew he was capable of doing anything... To hurt me.
He doesn't have a line he wouldn't cross...
"Are you going to kill them too?... I won't allow you, I'll report to the police and..... "
His dark chuckle broke of whatever I was saying.
He looked so confident.... sounded so confident as he spoke.
"I won't stop you if you want to do that, but it would be so foolish of you... I know you won't disappoint me bunny "
I could only stare up at him unmoving, why was I the one stuck in this? ... I wouldn't wish it on any other girl, but why than me? All I ever wanted was a normal life but that's all past me, I would never be normal again.
He had made sure of that.
was there really no way out for me?
He'd already broken me... Took my virginity...I don't have any fight left anymore. What else does he want by keeping me with him?
"you are mine Gracie... your fears, tears... I'm going to completely shatter you until you know nothing else but my name "
"You got all you wanted, you got your revenge, you've ruined me... my life... I'll never live a normal life... I'll always have nightmares of you,..you already took so many years... I will never be able to get them back ....you won Hayden, I'm already shattered, you should be satisfied " I whispered staring into his searing gaze.
"But I'm not. not even close "
The next thing I was flattened between him and the wall, he didn't stop until I was pressed against the hard muscles of his chest.
My body shuddered at his domineering look, I shut my eyes closed when he buried his face in between my neck.
"you belong to me... Your body... Your soul... you'll understand how much.. " he whispered, his teeth grazing lightly on the crook of my neck...
A knock sounded on the door and he pushed away from me just slightly, an irritated scowl on his face.
Just then the door pushed open and a figure that bore a very striking resemblance to Hayden walked in.
