Four or Dead

Chapter 20

Emma... Present..

"sweet Emma, your father promised that you'll be mine soon but at least I can have you today. I will make you feel so good..." I jolted awake and sat

up instantly, my heart raced and my breaths were quick and panicked.)

I swallowed hard and tried to push away the memories of his hands on me. He tried to do what he thought would make me enjoy the moment he was stealing from me, but it just made me feel sicker. I would have fought but my father warned me that the man hovering over me was a far more dangerous man than him. =)

My stomach clenched and ached as I continued to play those moments over and over in my mind until I couldn't handle it any longer. I scrambled from the bed I was in and ran to the bathroom and unloaded the small contents of my stomach. My tears came rushing out as I

heaved over the toilet.

"Emma? Emma! What's wrong?" I glanced up to see Jayden rush toward the bathroom.

I took a moment to clear my throat before answering. "Lit's nothing. My stomach is just upset." I told him.

"are you sure? You were moving a lot during the night." I couldn't tell Chapter 20 him why, so I gave him a half-smile. > "It's nothing I promise." He watched me carefully before nodding and helping me to my feet.

The summer before senior year had been one of the hardest for me and I hadn't told anyone just how bad it was. My father woke me up one morning and spoke softly and sweetly to me which should have caused red flags to go up in my mind right away, but I didn't think too much of it. He did that sometimes after he let his anger get away and gave me a beating that was a little too far.

He handed me a bag full of soaps and salts and perfume and told me to take a long bath and use all the new stuff he got me. I felt uneasy about it but did
