I remember it like it was yesterday. I had a very handsome husband. He smelt wonderful. He looked good. He was well kept and wasn't friendly. His personality was okay. We had 2 children. A baby girl 3 years old her name was rose and I was pregnant with our beautiful baby boy who we didn't have a name for. My husband had toxic traits we choose to keep in the closet such as abuse but ever since I was pregnant with our baby boy it stopped. Until one afternoon I came home. I put the groceries away and laid rose down for a nap and my husband came home from work for his lunch break. I was making him stake and asparagus. When he came in the asparagus was still cooking but it was almost finished. He walked over to me and came behind me and ran his soft hands over my stomach. I thought we were good. Rose was sleeping so he had no interruptions. I turned the pan off and made his plate and sat it in front of him. I had eaten prior so I was okay I only made enough for him to eat. I sat at the table with a cup of apple juice. All I Hurd him say was "are you going to feed my son or no" I explained how I already ate he then smirked into the newspaper "are you trying to kill my son" i practically choked. "Excuse me" I said . I saw his eyes glare over the newspaper. "You fucking Hurd me don't play dumb, ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL MY FUCKEN SON" . sitting there in shock trembling in the seat I replied with a simple "no". I felt his hand hit my face leaving a burning mark. It was like a drug he was addicted to. Right after that I Hurd a knock at the door and he let me go "saved by the bell huh?" He went to open the door and seen the mail man. He dropped the mail off and because we were good friends he tried to speak to me and ask me how I was doing. I just ignored him cleaning up trying my best not to get beat again. My husband didn't like that he didn't like that men had any kinda access to me. Holding the mail he said "are you fucking my wife you coward"
I just sighed hard. "We aren't having sexual interaction my love". The mail man cut his eyes at my husband daring him to hit me in front of him. " I think it's time for you to go" was all he said as the man left. Rose Hurd all the commotion and ran out into my arms thinking it was a nightmare come true. I cradled her in my arms as this was daddy's princess he wasn't going to do anything. He picked her up out my arms and was talking to her . "How's daddy's baby girl" she was so happy to see him she had no idea this man was a monster.
He sat her down in the living room and i doubled over in the kitchen washing dishes. He walked past me bringing rose juice and said "if my son dies I'm going to beat you worse then I ever have before" anxiety jumped up and rushed through my body.
I cleaned up as he headed back to work. He kissed me goodbye and kissed my stomach and kissed rose on the cheek. The moment he left I sprung into action. I packed a small bag of all roses things and threw them in the car. I buckled her into the car seat and got in the car. I called my mom and explained how i needed her to watch rose for a while as me and my husband was arguing and I didn't wanna expose rose to that. I pulled outta the drive way and drive 40 minutes to my mom's house.
I dropped off rose and kissed her goodbye and I thanked my mom. I got back in the car and that's when I got the Text "my love where are you" my husband never left any sign of abuse besides the bruises but he was to perfect to everyone so it wasn't believable that he did it.
I didn't respond. I drove home slow. It was not 12:00 pm. There were 2 cars in the driveway. I parked in front of my mailbox and walked into the house as the door was unlocked. Moans ran through the house. Reality set in. I went upstairs and swung the door open. A female was on top of him naked. I cried outta anger and he threw the girl off him "GET THE FUCK OUTTA MY HOUSE BOTH OF YOU". The girl grabbed her things and left barely dressed. "You to follow your whore" he grabbed me by a handful of my hair. I love u don't you see that? You're pregnant I can't have sex with you. Besides you're a woman you wouldn't make it a day out there without me. My heart shattered as i thought we were in love. That night I was fed up. He was chatting with his friends on the phone about what happened and the moment he hung up I beat him repeatedly with a bat. I left his body there. I went upstairs and got in the bed and slept I was so tired after everything. I already knew my fate but I had to protect my babies. When I got up I went downstairs and his body was still in the chair.
I was making a cup of tea when my water broke and I called the ambulance but before that I called my mom and explained everything and I said An quote "when I give birth I want u to raise my son and rose. Name my baby boy what you see fit I know I'm going to be in jail for a long time" I hung up as the paramedics came in I was screaming in pain. After about 5 hours of labor my baby boy was here but I was placed in handcuffs right after.

When trail came around I pled guilty. It was Multiple files of abused between me and him but because he appeared perfect and I was just a woman. That didn't matter my mom was right be-careful who you marry. I was thrown in jail and sentenced to life in prison and that's where I've been ever since.
