Her Personal Curse (Part Two) *warning, Graphic In Nature*

I felt his fingers bruising my flesh, tearing me till I bled onto him. He made me taste it for him, I thought this would be the night I died. Panic seized me anew when he settled between my thighs and pressed in. A pain like none of his blows seized me, as he pinned me where I lye I began to fight him again, digging my own nails into his shoulders. It didn’t seem to anger him anymore as he pushed sending fire through me. He let me scream now, and the bed banged the wall, but nobody heard. All I could think about was my mother in the next room, oblivious to my screams. He pound his member deep inside me as I gasped and begged him to stop I called him by his name, and still, his hands grabbed hard as he continued to thrust. Some of the pain subsided as he took me, I must have slowly slipped into shock. I felt his hot release inside of me, as I lye under this man I once thought I could trust. Spent and dripping sweat, he fell down against me, crushing the breath from my lungs. I felt his lips suckle my neck, as he leaned off to knead my breast. I lay limp as he kissed me, I could still taste vodka on his tongue. I lay there being fondled by my mother’s 28 year old house guest. He hardened again against my thigh, while he continued exploring my body He murmured empty words to me before flipping me over onto my stomach. I tried to get up and crawl away but he pushed my head down from behind me. I screamed against the mattress while he took me, preying for it to go by quick. It was dawn before he left me, aching and soiled down to my bones. I curled up onto the mattress after he told me no one would ever believe me. I was stunned that this could happen to me in my own home. I thought of my mother sleeping in such close vicinity. She must have left and I didn’t hear her, I thought. I didn’t want to face the fact That she had been there, steps away while I begged and pleaded for rescue. But as I painfully left my bed to prove to myself that she wasn’t there to stop the attack, I stepped out into the hallway and heard her snoring, the door left open to her room. Passed out on her own bed, left as vulnerable as I had been left, she was untouched. While I was riddled with bruises and blood, scars inside that would never heal. I ran to her shaking her awake to tell her, wanting to be consoled so much. She looked at me, still drunk, as if wondering how she should feel.

You need to scream and carry on in some social service office until someone hears. Too many look the other way. It's one of the things in life that pi--es me off. Our judicial system is failing. There are times when street justice is the answer. God Bless. Vince
