This time you'll be hearing from me, Suyin Beifong. My life seems all peachy with my five kids and husband. But here's the thing, I never wanted kids. Those kids were only because Bataar forced himself on me. At first yes, it was love. But then when I wouldn't go past kissing he got angry. He used to jerk me around...sometimes put me in chains. It was dark in the basement he put me in, and after he was done I had so many bruises on me that I could barley move. I didn't even know what day it was or what time of day. He'd keep me down there for weeks saying I was just on some buisness trip when I was really stuck down here. My guard (used to be) Kuvira would sometimes help me out of the chains and hide me, then clean me up. She was all business at that point and always hid me until I was better. Sometimes longer than that. Bataar never laid a hand on her, he knew if something like that was to happened he'd be caught for not only hitting Kuvira, but for raping me. Over, and over again. I have so many nightmares, so many times when I fear he's going to come back. He left a couple days ago and took his son Bataar Jr with him. Bataar Jr was no better than him. He used to beat Kuvira in prison and was the reason she also had a daughter. He was my son....it was hard to think that he would do that to his family. But I guess he was still Hurting about losing Kuvira after she double crossed him. She double crossed us all...but it was worse that she was disappointed in me when I didn't take the leadership that was offered. I could see the disappointed in her jade green eyes. That's when I thought I lost her and we went through the whole big city destroying fight. But that's not my story to tell. Kuvira was my adoptive daughter, and I raised her from a little girl. But as she grew older I started having different feelings. I loved her, a lot. The way she was always there when I needed her to comfort me or help me fix myself. Sometimes all I needed was to look into those dark jade eyes and I lost what was wrong. She is my hero, and nothing can change that. I startled awake in Kuvira's arms, her eyes filled with concern and her strong arms holding me in a warm embrace.
"S-Su...?" The scared tone in her voice almost made me cry and I reached up to put a hand to her cheek, I felt her cheek warm a bit when I touched it.
"I'm fine, sorry about that...guess I must have dozed off."
Kuvira nodded and hesitantly Nuzzled into my hand. I smiled at her. She wasn't a heartless killing machine like the rest of the world thought. She just needed some help seeing what true love was. I leaned up to look at her and Nuzzled my head into her warm strong neck. I felt her arms wrap back around me and her hand move up and down my back slowly, stroking it in a comforting way. This was all I had ever wanted from Bataar. Just to be held and loved by him. But all I was, was some sex machine. She stared humming a song, and I listened to the soft rumble in her chest as she did. Something crashed outside that made us both jump. I told Kuvira to stay where she was and I went outside. Everything was eerily quiet. I walked around the back of the house and met face to face with Bataar Senior. He put a cloth over my mouth that had alcohol on it. My vision started to go as he smirked darkly and threw me into the back of a van.
When I had awoke again I had a splitting headache. Something was dripping from my forehead onto the cold rock under me. The copper smell told me what it was. Blood, and lots of it. I couldn't move from where I was, which told me I was chained. It was completely dark, and my breath came in clouds from it being so cold. I heard the familiar thud of Bataar's footsteps approaching. He opened the heavy metal door and I shut my eyes tight as he stood over me. My breathing came fast as he unlocked the chains and picked me up by the back of my shirt, slamming me against the wall.
"Thought you got away didn't you? You little bitch. You don't get to run away from me."
He threw me to the ground hard where I hit my head. Spots danced in front of my vision as he only pulled me back up again and started being rough. I cried out as he started to grip me harder than he should have and felt his skin on mine, where it shouldn't have Been. He pushed up against me on the wall and I cried out loudly again, as he only looked to be in pleasure. After he was done he dropped me again, chained me up and left. I shook for hours, and I was bleeding between my legs from him being so rough with me. I finally passed out again but I could hear his laughs as he kicked me in my sleep, as he smelled my blood. I could just see the smirk on his face as my eyes snapped wide open when he kicked me in the stomach. I coughed up blood, lots of it. It just kept coming up, the really dark kind. My stomach felt like someone was stabbing me and twisting the knife. I was going to die here, and probably no one would know to come find me. That's when I heard another commanding voice boom loudly in the hallway. It was Kuvira. I heard her running down the hall and fighting off guards until she stood beside me and crouched down. Bending off the chains and picking me up, cradling me. I faded in and out of consciousness as she ran, carrying me through the building. She stabbed Bataar in the throat and kicked him, then kept running. She ran until we were back at the estate. I felt her hands start trying to help stop the bleeding and passed out again.
This time when I woke up I was just sore. Bandages covered me all over and the bleeding had stopped. Kuvira sat holding my hand and looked up, her jade eyes full of tears and her voice is broke when she speaks.
"I.....I'm sorry...that I didn't get to you earlier before he..."
I put a hand over her mouth gently. My voice was rough and weak from crying.
"It wasn't your fault. All that matters is that I'm safe and here. You saved my life Kuvira."
She sniffs and nods, taking my hand softly and holding it in hers.
