I had no will

He breathed in my ear and snarled .... Hie darling

We both knew I was awake because I had opened the door. A few minutes passed in silence and he shrugged leaving the bed. He strode towards the showers making the wooden tiles crackle under his enormous weight. This man was handsome and musculine. He had a well chiselled frame. I used to think he resembled Thor the god from the movies. When I heard the shower running I settled just a bit. Atleast he had the decency to remove the offensive smell today. This thought was not very comforting because it meant the inevitable could be a possibility.

A thousand thoughts ran through my brain. I couldn't think of one thing and I could feel the onset of a headache. Was this what all married women went through??? This thought was nagging and I could not shrug off the feeling that my situation was different.

I got lost in my internal struggle and did not hear Gabe coming back to the bedroom. I was startled when I felt cold hands groppling my garments. This was it, he wanted what he should have customarily paid for. I could not stop him so I relented to the pain..... It was more than physical pain, it was Emotional torture.
