My Life’s Story

2636 Words
Trigger warning s****l assault Every night as I put my three-year-old son Jake to bed; lying there with him till he falls asleep and my adult life flashes before my eyes. I lived far away from where I live now. I worked in a small factory. I made decent money. One night I went to the local bar with some girlfriends from work. A beautiful blonde-haired man, with piercing blue eyes, tanned and well-built was looking at me. I was nothing to look at; short dark brown hair about a shade from black, 5’8 and a little chunky and green eyes. I was nothing special. Anthony came over and swept me off my feet. We had a wonderful year together we were so in love and happy. Then I found out I was pregnant. I was so excited; I was going to have a baby with the man I love. Once I told him I was pregnant things started to change gradually at first very moody; I thought he was stressed once we had the child he wouldn’t be so stressed. Then the verbal assault would start. I was fat and ugly. No one else would care about me I was his and he said it made him sick to look at me. But I could never leave I was his and that was it. I gave birth to my beautiful baby boy. He had his father's colouring blonde hair and blue eyes but he looked like me and Anthony; his eyes were my nose. Jake was all that was good about the relationship he was conceived with love, even if Anthony had changed. He wouldn’t even look at Jake his beautiful son. When Jake would cry, he would yell at me to shut the bastard up. I would spend most of my time in the room with Jake. One day Jake wouldn’t stop crying as much as I tried. That was the first time he hit me it was my fault the baby cried. Then it got worse. If supper wasn’t on the table at the right time whack. If it wasn’t to his taste whack. If anything was out of place whack. I had to find a way out Jake was six months old. After the first time, he hit me I started stashing money away. Anthony was rich he never noticed a bit going here and there. He was too busy to care about the booze and other women he was sleeping with. I had about 50k stashed away. I was soon going to be able to leave just biding my time. The night he came home loaded and was pissed at something. He had a duffel bag in his hand, threw it on the table and he was ready to take it out on me. He grabbed me and pulled me into his chest his lips crashing against mine. I pulled back; him touching me repulsed me. Then I got a whack across the face for pulling away. I went to run into my room but he grabbed me pulling me back to him. He took me and threw me on the bed. He ripped my shirt and bra in half I tried to get away. He grabbed my pants and underwear and pulled them off. As he was undoing his pants and pulling them down I tried to get off the bed. This time he hit me hard enough to stun me. He pulled me back towards him. He said. “ It was time for me to remember who I belonged to and I can have you whenever I wanted.” With that he had me pinned down and thrust into me. He was too big for me to fight off but I tried. But that turned him on more. He kept going harder and harder grunting and groaning every time until he was finally done. He grabbed me by the face. “Such a good slut no one can make me c*m the way you do.” He lay on my bed and passed out. I went to the shower to get his smell off me and cried the whole time. I dried myself off and said to myself that was it it was time to go. I had a bag packed for myself and Jake with the money I had had stashed away. I had been planning this for a while now. Under the bathroom sink, I had a bottle of chloroform there. I grabbed a facecloth and soaked it with it. I went to my room and held the cloth over his face for a minute to make sure he was out. I got Jake out of his crib and strapped him to my chest. I took our bag and looked at the bag Anthony had. I looked in it there was 100k in there. I emptied it into mine and we left. I went out the back out of sight of his bodyguard. I hailed the first taxi I saw and got him to take me to the bus station. I threw my phone out the window I saw it smash on the pavement. The bus station was huge almost as big as a small city airport. I had our fake IDs and passports done about a month ago. I passed it to the attendant a ticket to anywhere in Canada and the one leaving the quickest. He passed me the two tickets I got on the bus with Jake and never looked back. We stopped in Ottawa that’s where we got off the bus. I found a smaller bus station that didn’t ask for identification and I went to a smaller town. I went to the local store and it had a phone kiosk. I bought a smartphone outright but again he’s looking for Jennifer and Jake Malone. Not Alexia and Jacob Smith. On my way into town, I saw a sign on a dirt road with Cabin for Sale. I called the number. I explained I didn’t have a car. The lady said she would pick me up at the store and take me out there. It was a beautiful small three-bedroom cabin. It had septic, water and electricity. It was close enough to town to do stuff but far enough away there was no cell service. The old woman chatted me up on the way out to the cabin after seeing the marks on my face. She placed her hand on mine. “No one should have to go through that my child.” A tear rolled down my cheek. “Thank you.” “I’m asking 15,000. It needs some work since my husband died I haven’t been able to keep up with it.” She informed me. I grabbed a 10,000-dollar bundle. “That’s enough my child.” She took the money we went to town to get the local lawyer to do the paperwork. I needed a car and I needed groceries. Lillian that’s the old woman’s name but went by Lilly. She took me to the store. We got everything I need for the cabin. She was leaving all of the stuff in there. It was the first act of kindness I have seen towards me in a long time. She looked after Jake while I put the groceries away. She helped me during my time here. A car, she would look after Jake and got me a job. It wasn’t much but to me, Lilly gave me the world. End of flashback **************************************************** I came out of Jake’s bedroom Lilly was waiting for me. “Sit my child I made you some iced tea. I know you don’t like hot beverages.” “Thank you, Lilly.” I smiled. “ You look after Jake all day you don’t need to fuss over me too. You babysit for nothing even though I give you money it magically appears in my dresser drawer the next morning. You don’t have to do all of this for me.” “Nonsense child you two make me feel young again. You are like my child and grandchild. You both fill me with hope and happiness.” Lilly beamed. Tears started down my face. “You are too good to me. I have never known kindness like this. Even my parents didn’t treat me well. I was booted out the minute I turned eighteen. Well you know my story you are the only person I have ever told.” She walked over to the couch, sat next to me, and put her arm around me. “My child I am sorry this happened to you but it will all be better soon. You will end up having a happy life, Alex.” “I hope so.” I looked into her eyes she has dark eyes with purple flicks in them. “Well I must head home my love; I will be back in the morning.” Lilly got up, kissed my cheek and left. When she left I went to the freezer and got out my baggie of weed. I busted up a bud, filled my pipe, went out on the deck and lit it up. I can’t sleep without it. The nightmare that is my life would repeat over and over in my sleep. It’s a good thing that Lilly is an old hippie she supplies me with as much as I need. I love coming out here. It’s my happy place. I am at one with nature. When I come outside the wind always comes out in a gentle breeze, the stars seem bright, and the sounds of nature become clear and crisp. I swear I can see the colours of the wind. I sit on my rocking chair smoking my pipe and I could hear a ruckus from the trees on the hill next to my cabin. I look up and I see a big black wolf running down the hill. I ran back into the cabin and locked the door. I went to the spare room and grabbed my shotgun. I stood in front of Jake’s door no one or nothing was going to hurt him. After a couple of minutes, I never heard anything. I walked over to the door and looked out my deck. There is a naked man passed out on it. He’s bleeding he’s in rough shape. I put the gun down and pulled him inside. I locked the door again and I put the man in my bed. I never had a bed in my spare bedroom it was more of a junk room. I see the dirt in his wounds all I have is water and peroxide. I take the kettle off the wood stove and poured some hot water into the pan. I let the water cool off for a minute, went and got a face cloth and went back into my room. I wet the cloth and cleaned his wounds the best that I could but he was still out. I went to grab the peroxide when I saw a bottle of iodine. I knew that would work better, the water would sting but iodine would make a grown man cry. Even if he is about 6’5” about 280 lbs of solid muscle. His black hair was matted with blood and dirt. As soon as the iodine touch’s the wound he jumped off the bed. “What the hell.” “I was trying to clean your wounds.” I try to explain. “What the hell is that?” He shouted. “Iodine and stop yelling if you wake up my son iodine is the least of your worries.” I snapped at him. “Where am I how did I get here?” He asked. “I was on the deck and a big black wolf came towards me, I locked myself and my son in, then I looked out the window and you were there naked on my deck,” I told him. “What is your name?” “Lex.” He answered. “I need you to call one of these two numbers. Their names are Chris and Nick.” “Chris and Nick?” I questioned. I remember reading a story on an app it was about an alpha wolf named Lex, a beta named Chris and a gamma named Nick. Nah it can’t be I mean it was fiction there are no such things as werewolves. I mean I know alphas are black but it couldn’t be. “ There’s no cell service here. I have to get on the quad drive for about five minutes to call. I can’t leave my son.” I tell him. “I’m well enough to watch your boy if he wakes, please I need their help and help to protect you,” Lex stated. I don’t know why but I trusted him. I got on the quad and drove for a few minutes till I got service I called one of the numbers. “Hello.” He answered. “Is this Chris or Nick?” I asked. “Chris who‘s asking?” Chris questioned. “My name is Alex, I am sending you a pin of our location. Lex told me to call one of you two for help. He’s in bad shape please hurry he needs help that I can’t give him at a cabin in the woods.” I informed them and hung up. I needed to make sure my son is okay. This could be a trap Anthony may have found us and he could already have Jake. I’m starting to panic. But I get a feeling we could trust this man with my life our lives; not a romantic thing like a brother-sister thing. I walk in Lex has moved to my couch. “You should not be out of bed. You are injured.” I whisper yell. “I’m healed, must have been something in that water or iodine.” He chuckled. “It’s not possible you had deep gashes and bruises everywhere.” I was in shock how was that possible? Then I thought could it be what I thought it was earlier no it can’t be it’s fiction. “Lex is your wife’s name Anna?” I ask. “How did you know?” Lex was puzzled. Oh my God, it’s true. He was the wolf how? There are not that many coincidences for this not to be true. “You’re the black wolf you are the Alpha.” I was shaking trying to locate my gun stepping back from him “I have read your story.” Fear coursed through my body. I would die here tonight to protect my son. “Please I’m not going to hurt you. You helped me which will now leave you in danger from my enemies. I need to help you now. It’s not safe here for you and your son.” All of a sudden two big men come through the door the first a 6’4” and about 265 lbs not as built as Lex. Chocolate brown hair and bright green eyes. The one that came in behind him was a 6’4” about 270 lbs chiselled Greek god standing before me; blonde hair cut short on the sides and enough on top to style. Then the word that came out of his mouth scared me more than three werewolves the blonde hair silver-eyed god liked man looked at me and growled “MINE.” Oh my lord, I have read enough of these books to know it’s not a good thing for me. He walks over took my hand and kissed it. “I am Nick my love.”
