FULL LENGTH
We barely knew each other but in a time where I wanted to be lost in the world he found me and he saved me. I didn't want to but I fell for Liam. In days I fell for a man I barely knew. A man who didn't know me at all.
A man who never would, because of Tom.
I married Tom, we shared vows and in the eyes of the law I am still his wife and he is still my husband. Regardless of the broken bones and dreams. He owns me.
I can never escape.
My stomach churns as his fingers graze my skin. Goosebumps erupt as my body shakes from the cold cement underneath me. My wrists sting as the rope burns and digs into my flesh behind my back. My face feels dry and dirty like snake skin it cracks and pulls away from me from built up tears and dust.
The room is dark and my cries echo off the walls.
He found me.
I look around in the darkness as my heart beats rapidly in my chest. I roll around on the ground wishing this was a dream. Looking around the room for something to help me.
Looking for signs of freedom.
I hear thundering movements inside the room with me. Steps that are heavy, forceful, and angry.
I suck in a large breath and close my eyes as the steps come closer, as the floor beneath me from me shakes with each thunderous step.
My heart beats so fast I can hardly breath, my tears blur my vision but I can smell him. I can smell the whiskey.
I close my eyes and think of Liam. I think of how he survived the shooting. I focus on the man who isn't here. I will my body to go numb.
Liam.
After I found out he was ok and survived the shooting I saw him and kissed his forehead while he was sleeping. I wrote him and note and then I left. I packed up everything and I left.
I needed to protect him and selfishly I wanted to protect myself. I couldn't live with Liam being mad at me for my betrayal and lies.
I couldn't handle Tom finding me and trying to murder me.
I couldn't handle Liam being collateral damage.
I grabbed everything and left the apartment. I got on the city bus and headed for the depo. I planned on doing everything the same. I survived ten months before me found me. I messed up with the apartment but I would be smarter this time.
I didn't even last two weeks.
Tom isn't a fool.
TOM
Two weeks later.
I'm so close to her I can almost feel her.
I can almost smell her and this time I'm not going to miss.
I walk behind her in the shadows. She's only a few feet ahead of me.
My heads down, the ball cap covers my face. She doesn't know I'm here. She doesn't know wants going to happen to her. She doesn't know that I have her in my sights.
This is it baby. Till death do us part.
