Don't Leave Me
"Stand up.", he said to me. "What?", I asked confused. "STAND UP.", he ordered slightly aggressive. I quickly got up from the bed and stood in front of him. "Take off your underwear.", he demanded. "Wh-" "Now." Doing what he told me to I slowly slipped my underwear off. I was now completely naked as his eyes roamed over my whole body again. "Lay down on your back." Once again I obeyed him without talking back this time which caused him to smirk. Then he grabbed my hands and cuffed them to the bed frame. My eyes widened and as I was about to ask him what he's doing he held up one of his hands. Understanding his signal I remained silent. "Good girl", he whispered in my ear. ------------------- Emily Potters, a 21 year old girl, had to run away from her dark past. Seeking shelter in New York, she battled her way through the darkness.
