The noise from the next room grew louder.
I rolled over and tried to sleep.
Thanks to the sleeping pills, I managed to fall into a light doze about ten minutes later.
The nightmares returned.
A dark, decaying warehouse. My hands and feet tied.
A grotesque, leering face approaching.
I was a lamb awaiting slaughter, screaming in despair.
The scene shifted to Kellan's livid face as he gave me the silent treatment.
"Skylar, you slept with another man, putting one green hat after another on my head. Do you really think I won't hit you?"
The veins on his neck bulged.
His raised fist slammed into the wall instead, leaving bloodstains.
He ignored my tearful explanations.
He stopped me from calling the police.
When I knelt, begging him to forget it happened, his eyes held nothing but disgust.
"Skylar, you've dirtied yourself. What right do you have to make demands?"
He shook me off and walked away without looking back.
I often woke at midnight, my face wet with tears.
Kellan's disgusted eyes haunted me.
Two years had passed since the incident.
He never touched me again.
He thought I was dirty.
