-An Apprehensive Farewell-
-Disclaimer-
I own nothing, except for the whole character concept of Mike, and the new story line that I've created. Other than that, I don't own a frigging thing.
-Prologue-
Jude looked up at Mike in fear. She knew what he was capable of. In all honesty, unbeknownst to anybody else, she'd experienced it, and at the moment, this was her reality. She looked up at the man she had once fallen obliviously in love with. Not once did she ever imagine it would come to this. In fact, being in this situation had always been only in her wildest dreams. "Don't do this!" She screamed as he raised his fist. "Don't do something you'll regret!"
Mike let out an evil chuckle. "Don't do something I'll regret?" He yelled. "I already proposed to you, didn't I?" He yelled back to her. At this point, he was sitting on top of her stomach, pinning her down to the wood floor in their living room as she struggled to move. He raised his fist in the air and came down hard, his knuckles colliding with her cheek bone. He did the same thing once more before he got up. Mike walked towards the front door, an evil grin on his face as he did so. "If anybody asks, you tripped when you were walking down the stairs." He turned to her. "And if I hear that anybody found out different? If I come home to see that you aren't here?" He opened the door behind him, not taking his gaze off of her. "There will be hell to pay. I promise." He said with a wink as he opened the door and walked out.
Jude moved her hand to touch her cheek, just below her left eye. It was red, and she could tell that it was already beginning to swell. She couldn't believe what she'd gotten gerself into, and she was unsure of how exactly to go about getting out of the situation. Jude only knew that it wouldn't be an easy task.
