Alone and Unwanted (No longer writing)

Day 17

Tavern's (POV)

That bitch thought I was dead. Ha!

She left after I supposedly "died." 

But I didn't. 

Since I couldn't walk, I crawled my way out the room. 

I could hear Koda struggling against someone. 

I heard footsteps. Dammit, someone was coming. 

I hid under the stairs and saw Nate and Nichole holding my little Malena. 

"Well, well, well. What do we have here?" I heard that terrible voice. 

Jarod. 

"Someone's looking for their daughter," he taunted. 

I gulped. 

"Where is the Luna? I don't see her anywhere. She's always with you." 

"She's trying to protect me," I told him. 

I felt that hard slap he gave me on the cheek. 

"Don't speak unless I tell you to. Alright?"

I don't answer which got me another slap.

"Bitch, you better answer me."

But I couldn't because he kept on slapping me. Then it turned into kicking.

He kicked me so hard in the ribs.

When he was finished, Jarod left me there, all boody and bruised.

I couldn't move. Everything was numb.
