You are the reason

Separated

Its been 4 months since Chris and I moved in together, and life has never been better. Chris has been so affectionate and caring, always doing little things to brighten my day, and whenever we went on dates, he was the model gentleman. Tonight, we were going to have a nice dinner and have some time to ourselves. Before that however, duty calls.

"Captain. We're being hailed by the USS Excelsior."

My blood ran cold and I turned to Chris. He was looking at me, concerned.

"You'll be alright." He whispered.

I nodded and we turned to the viewscreen.

"On screen."

Roger appeared on the screen, looking extremely angry.

"Captain Adams, good to see you." The Captain said calmly.

"Captain, you deceived me." He said maliciously.

"What do you mean?" Chris asked.

"My wife is on board your ship. In fact, she's sitting right next to you."

My heart stopped- how does he recognise me?

"You've changed my dear." He said, looking at me.

I stayed silent, not knowing how the hell this was happening.

"Megan, you will come back with me now." he snapped.

I sat up tall and confidently said "No."

"Excuse me?"

"I said no. I'll never come back to you."

He chuckled and said "Very well."

I was suddenly aware that I was being transported. I turned to Chris, fear on my face. He looked at me- shock evident on his features. I reached out to him, but it was too late. I suddenly found myself on an unknown ship. I pulled my phaser out and looked around.

"Put the gun down dear."

I whipped round and saw Roger.

"Stay back you son of a bitch!"

"Now, is that really an appropriate way to talk to your husband?"

"We're not together, and we never will be again. You tried to kill me!"

His face contorted into an evil expression. He suddenly lunged at me, knocking the phaser from my hand. Before I could do anything, he grabbed my arm, twisted it behind my back and shoved me to the ground. His weight on top of me was crushing and I was struggling to breathe.

"You're going to regret your actions dear."

Captain Pike POV

As soon as Megan was transported off the ship, Roger jumped to warp.

"Go after them now!" I ordered.

"Yes sir."

It quickly became apparent that hed hidden his warp signature so we wouldn't be able to find them. I kept up a calm exterior, but on the inside, I was panicking. I love Megan with all my heart and I'd hate to see anything more happen to her. I knew what Roger was capable of- and it scared me that she was at his mercy.

"Please be ok." I whispered to myself.

Megan POV

I shakily got to my feet; my entire body hurting from Roger's beating. He was looking at me maliciously.

"You just dont know when to give up do you?" he asked.

Without warning, he locked his hands round my throat and shoved me to the ground. He began to squeeze tightly and I began hitting him in an attempt to stop him. Nothing was working and I felt my consciousness slipping away. Roger leaned down to my ear.

"I'm not going to kill you- not yet anyway. I'm going to leave you on the brink for as long as I can until you beg for death."

He then released me, walked out and locked the door. I immediately started coughing and breathing deeply. Every inch of my body was in agony as I slowly sat up and got my breathing back under control. I then broke into floods of tears, tucking my knees to my chin and tightly gripping my legs. The only thing I could think about at that moment was Chris. I love him so much and I couldn't bear to think of life without him. I suddenly had a completely different feeling inside me- determination. I was going to stay strong for Chris. I was going to make it back to him. I would do everything in my power to escape Roger and get back to my crew- my family.
