Right Hook

Chapter 2

Maddison's pov

"You didn't have to yell at him like that you know?"

I feel so bad that Harry got yelled at by my horrendous uncle.

My uncle Mariano isn't even my real uncle, he was a friend of my parents but when the accident happened he took me in and abuses and exposed me to his hideous world.

"You don't get to tell me what I can and cannot do! You listen to me little girl, you know what happens when you don't right?"

He uses his filthy hands to push a few strands of hair from my face and I swat it away scotching closer to the door of the car and away from him.

The whole ride home was silent except for the phone call he had with one of his workers about a new "shipment".

I knew what this new shipment was and I hate his whole business, if I could go to the authorities about it I would but he's got partners on the police force in case anyone tries to file a report.

The new "shipment" he would be receiving tonight was young teenage girls, around the ages of 14-19.

He has an underground prostitution business and sells these girls to greasy old business men.

Whenever I don't "obey" his rules he treats me as one of his prostitutes and threatens to sell me to some of the men.

I quickly step out of the car as soon as we arrive to his house and fast walk inside.

"Just where do you think you're going Maddison?"

I stop in my tracks hoping that he will not punish me for defending Harry.

"I..I was just on my way to m-my room to do homework for one of my classes at the Uni.."

I continue to walk upstairs but he grabs my arm and pulls me down a few steps causing me to stumble.

"Did I say you could go upstairs? No! You have to prepare sandwiches for the shipment coming in tonight!"

"But i've really got to-"

SMACK

All I could feel was the stinging and heat on my cheek from the force of the slap.

"Are you going to decide to listen now? Or am I gonna have to hit you worse you bitch!"

"I- i'll make them I promise, I just have to finish my project or else i'll fail the class!"

I didn't realize that I had raised my voice at him and as soon as I saw the anger in his eyes I ran back up to try and save myself from a beating again.

I feel something hit my back on the last step and i'm instantly on the ground.

A stool, he threw and fucken stool at me!

I tries to get up to crawl to my room knowing he was coming up the stairs but he grabs my legs and flips me onto my backside.

"I warned you many times to talk back and raise your voice with me but you just don't listen do you little girl"

He pins me down and starts trying to grab me inappropriately but I spit at his face when he comes close to mine.
