Chapter 20 - Hammer into Anvil

Quote:  "You must be either the servant or the master, the hammer or the anvil"

- Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

No One's POV.

It was just after 5 o'clock and over 3 hours had passed since Beck had caught Jade on the phone. 3 hours since that first punch, one of many since then. Beck had done things before, but this was on a new level. Any idea that Dr. Cortez was wrong, quickly vanished when Jade realized that Beck was doing these things sober. Even though she was being beaten senseless, Jade couldn't help but notice he was enjoying every second of it.

At the moment, Jade lay naked under a comforter in a fetal position on the bed. Other than an occasional whimper of pain, the Goth neither moved nor spoke. Already in shock from the terrible revelation about the true nature of Beck, he had subsequently beaten and raped her into the near catatonic state she was currently in.

Beck, who had since redressed, was in the kitchen trying to decide what to make for dinner. Jade was in no condition to do anything so he'd have to do it. Eventually he would have Jade cook all the meals and do all the cleaning, but for now he realized some sacrifices needed to be made.

Having decided, he walked into the bedroom and ran his fingers through Jade's hair. She however didn't react.

"Babe, I'm making pasta tonight with mushrooms. I'll start it in a short bit so dinner will be ready about 6. I don't think you'll be quite up to dinner, so you can rest in here for the evening. Someday you'll thank me for this!"

"BAM, BAM, BAM" Suddenly rang out the sound, of someone pounding at their apartment door.

Beck stood up and cursed loudly "Who in the fuck is that?"

The response came a second later, in the unmistakable voice of an utterly furious sounding, Tori Vega. "Beck, you let me in right now!"

Hearing the voice Jade lifted her head slightly and whimpered Tori's name.

Beck however, promptly slapped her. "Shut up! Looks like Tori did come for you, but know this. It's not going to help you one damn bit. Now stay quiet or so help me god...."

Jade went quiet and lowered her head as Beck exited the bedroom and closed the door.

Arriving at the apartment door, Beck grabbed the doorknob but didn't open it. "Go away Tori. Jade's not home."

"Beck you open this door or I'm calling the cops. I'll tell them I heard screams coming from your apartment. You can talk to me or the cops, your choice!" Demanded Tori.

Beck opened the door, and gave Tori a rather mocking smile. "So nice of you to stop by, do come in."

The Latina looked as if she had come directly from her job at the bank, as she was wearing a green skirt with matching top and black belt.

Striding into the room past Beck, the very agitated Tori, turned to Beck. "I just got Jade's phone message. Where is she?"

Beck chuckled. "I told you Jade isn't here. She went to the grocery store after work and I don't know anything about any message."

"You're lying!" Tori snapped, as she made a move towards the closed bedroom door.

Beck tightly grabbed Tori's arm, his eyes growing cold. "I told you, she's not here. Leave...right NOW!"
