Deadly Lovers

This is gonna be fun

Plates were almost empty and the awkward dinner was coming to a close. Jack had had a few glasses of wine promoting me to open a second bottle that he nearly finished on his own. I found his company distasteful but I kept a smile on my face anyway. "So Jack, tell me about what you do for work" I said. Jack looked surprised at me before clearing his throat, " I thought you and my lovely yet childless wife had discussed all that over coffee and shopping the other day" he said arrogantly. I could feel Dale getting angry, I have his hand a quick squeeze to keep him calm. " She mentioned a few small details but you know us women don't know much about what our hardworking husbands do" I responded sarcastically. Jacks face reddened slightly but he refused to speak. Stella seemed shocked at my boldness but kept quiet as well. " perhaps we should move on to dessert?" Dale said changing the subject. Jack shook his head slowly, he was clearly drunk. " No thank you, I believe this evening is coming to a close" he moved to stand up only to fall clumsily into his chair again. I stood and began clearing away dishes, Stella joined me as I walked to the kitchen. " What was that?" she said incredulously her eyes were wide. "That was me refusing to be talked down to in my own house" I said scraping the plates clean. I turned toward her trying to keep from sneering. " You should grow a spine and tell the drunk asshole to piss off" I said sharply. Stella frowned deeply " he's only like that when he's drunk, I think he's right this evening has come to a close" She turned on her heel marching toward the dinning room. "Big mistake" I thought grabbing the hidden syringe, I quickly grabbed her jamming the needle into her side before she could stop me. She collapsed a shocked and horrified look on her face as she crumpled to the ground. She was out cold in seconds. "Dale?" I called "All set in her he called back. Good, now the real fun could begin.

I could feel my head pounding and my eyes felt too heavy to open. It was cold and my limbs.. wait I can't move?! I forced my eyes open taking everything in as quickly as I could. I was strapped to a small cold table, the walls were blue with cartoon characters painted on the base. What did they do torment kids here?? I tried to crane my neck so I could find my husband but it was in vain. I could hear voices near me they were muffled and unrecognizable. I waited trying to keep my eyes open when the footsteps started towards me. In walked.... Dale?!. My eyes fell closed before I could stop them my mind reeling.
