Inevitable tease

[mhalachai]

I'm in a strange state of zen at work today. Zen zen.

Now, because a) I love you and b) I'm a horrible tease, an excerpt from the next chapter of Inevitable.
(Anita POV)

Now that Lillian was gone, I pulled my hands out from under my knees. There was dirt caked in under my nails and I started at it, fascinated. I didn't remember clawing at the ground. I didn't remember a lot.

Just pain.

I clenched my hands slowly, pressing the tips of my fingers into my palms. Was this real? It didn't hurt. Wasn't it supposed to hurt? I'd thought it was always going to hurt, going to be just me and pain and screaming blackness.

The bedroom door opened a crack and I froze, staring at my hands, wondering who it was and what they were going to do to me.

"Ma petite?"

I knew that voice. I'd felt those soft whispered words over my skin in the dark too many times to not know him. Still, my fear was like a ball of ice in my stomach. What was he going to do?

tbc...
