Meet Me in the Graveyard [Book One] #Wattys2015

Chapter 19

Flashback

Amelie P.O.V

I quietly climbed out of bed. Being careful not to move Claude. 

The nursery was cold. Just another reminder of my failure as a woman and as a wife.

 I start to cry silent tears. I had had another miscarriage. 

I felt as if I would never be a mother. I needed a child in order to subdue the beatings, at least for a little while. Maybe if I had a son, Claude would stop being so hostile. 

It had been my fault that his pack sent him away, I wasn't a good mate and at this rate, I wouldn't be a mother.

My family didn't approve of him so they sent me away as well, I didn't have any support and no one would believe me if I said that my husband was abusive.

All I want is a child and I'll be able to live in peace.
