Saphronia's POV:

I close and lock the door and rush to turn the water on. I'm practically jumping up and down to use the toilet, but in my rush in sitting down, I knock something over.
I hear the man on the other side of the door saying something. He's trying the lock now. I finish and wash my hands as quickly as possible and I turn off the water. As soon as I do, the door bursts open, hitting me and causing me to fall backwards. I scream on my way down, curling into a ball, and shielding my head.
"What the fuck do you think you're doing in here?" He yells at me. "I was-" he looms over me "did I tell you you could close the door, lock it, and turn on the sink?" He screams over me. "I'm-" he pulls my hands away from my head. "Why the fuck didn't you unlock it after I told you to huh?" I start to cry. "I-" he pulls me towards him more by my hands. "Just what were you trying to pull huh?" He is furious. "I wa-"
He lets me go. "Get up." He tells me. "Wh-" I look up at him in fear. "Get the fuck up, now!" He screams. I get up, crying. He grabs my arm and pulls me out of the bathroom. His grip started to hurt. "S-" he glares at me and I decide to stay quiet.
We get to a set of stairs and he picks me up over his shoulder. He carries me down the stairs as I sob and apologize. He just growls at me and keeps going. He brings me into a dark room and sets me down. It's cold and feels weird. Light suddenly blinds me.
Once my eyes adjust I look around in horror. There's bars that close off an area about the size of a fourth of a room. It's kind of like a jail cell, there's an ankle shackle that is long enough for the small area. There's no toilet in here. There's a bed that hangs off the wall with thick chains. A thin mattress lays on top of it, a thin blanket and flat pillow without a pillow case lays on top. "Go sit on the bed." He tells me.
"Sir please-" I begin to beg. He comes closer to me and I back away. "Just Listen to me!" I start to sob and dodge his grasp. "Look Bitch, this is worlds away from what I will do to you in the future if you ever pull this little stunt again, so I suggest you shut up and do as I say before I make this punishment worse." He growls. I look into to his eyes crying. "This is wrong.... I didn't do-" Then, he slaps me.
He turns from me, looking away. "Go." He sighs. I go to the bed and sit in the corner, in a ball. He chains my ankle to the wall and leaves me. I sob to myself. I'm trying to stay alive. That is all. I only want to live, yet if this is only the beginning maybe I should end it now. Before it gets too late.
I don't understand how Belle could have fallen for Adam, with the way he treated her. Or, at least depending on what version you look at. In Disney's version he screams at her, almost physically attacks her and then verbally abuses her. In Once Upon a Time, Rumpelstiltskin is kinder, and then locks Belle away for power. I feel like Callum is more like Rumple. He started kind but when the two got confused they showed their true colors.

After what felt like forever, Callum comes back.
