Alex headed to his sister in law's house in the morning. He knew she had gone there. He pulled into the driveway and got out of the car. He walked up and knocked on the door.

"Alex, how's it going?" Ted said when he opened the door. He personally never liked Alex and when he started to suspect that Alex was abusing Holly, his dislike increased.

"It's going good. I just came for my wife." He said walking in. "I know she's here."

"She is and whatever you did, you should apologize to her." Amber said walking in with Holly.

"I will." He smiled walking over to her. He pulled her into a hug. "I'm sorry I lost my temper. I love you." He said loud enough for Amber and Ted to hear. He then whispered to Holly. "If you don't come home with me, I will come back and shoot you and your sister. I will kill that baby inside you first, painfully."

She knew by the tone he was serious. She wondered how he knew she was pregnant. "I forgive you." She said softly.

"Then let's go home."

She turned to Amber and Ted. "Thanks for letting me stay the night. I appreciate it."

"Anytime. You know you're welcomed here anytime." Amber said hugging her sister. She whispered softly. "Are you sure about leaving with him?"

"Of course. He is my husband. I love him." Holly said cheerily as she could. "I'll call you tomorrow and we will make a date to go shopping." Amber nodded and forced a smile. "Love you sis."

"Love you too." Holly walked back over to Alex and he pulled her to him and kissed her on the forehead.

"You ready?" She nodded. They walked out "What about my car?"

"You can get it tomorrow." He said and they got in his car. "Why'd you run?" he asked calmly.

"I didn't run. I…..just couldn't sleep and came to see Amber. We got to talking and I fell asleep."

"You pack to come and talk to your sister." He said as he pulled out of the driveway. "I don't think so. Tell me the truth and don't lie to me Holly. I mean it."

She knew she had really no way around it. She had to tell him the truth and take the consequences. "I didn't want to do this anymore. Alex, we aren't happy like we use to be and our marriage is falling apart. Let's just end it. I think it's for the best."

She could see immediately that it was a mistake to say anything to him. She knew when they got home, it would not be a good conversation. But she knew he wouldn't hurt the baby. It was what he wanted. She hoped and prayed it was a boy. She didn't want to know what Alex would do if it's another girl.

"Don't be stupid Holly. We're going to have a son. I still love you as much now as I ever did." He said as he grabbed her hand and kissed the back of it gently. Then he squeezed her hand so tightly, she was sure she felt the bones snap. "Just remember that you will ALWAYS be mine. Till death do us part." He said. She looked at him and nodded with tears in her eyes. "Now, when we get home I believe we have some celebrating to do don't you?" She knew that look in his eye. It meant that he'd force himself on her as many times as he wanted. She'd probably end up tied to the bed for days with no food or water like the last time.

They arrived at their house and headed in. She wondered what he had in mind for her and it terrified her even though she knew he would never hurt the baby at least until they found out what they were having. He pulled her up to the master bedroom. He stood in front of her.

"Here is how this will go." Alex said to her. "If you don't want me to punish you, then freely give yourself to me now and always. I don't want any more of that resisting stuff. I want you to want to be with me. If you do that now and always, then I will not punish you for trying to leave me and take my son."

She stood there for a minute and then walked over to him. She leaned up and kissed him. She felt him kiss her back and then his hands on her shirt. He ripped it open sending the buttons flying to the floor. He moved them to the bed and their clothes were soon gone and they were making love.

Afterwards as they laid there, he pulled her to him. "I've invited the guys over for poker tonight. I expect everything to go well." She nodded and realized what his punishment would be.

Later that night she was dressed in her skin tight maid's uniform and she was putting the finishing touches on the plate of sandwiches she'd fixed for the game. Alex had insisted that she always dress like with when he had the guys over. In the skin tight, short dress with no underwear what so ever. It made it easier for them to sleep with her. She smiled and kissed Alex when he walked into the room. He walked up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist, careful not to hurt the baby.

"Chris is coming tonight. So I expect you to show him the same hospitality you always do while the rest of us play poker. You got it?" he said as his hand dipped under her skirt and ran along her inner thigh. "You do whatever he wants you to do." He grabbed her hair a little and pulled her head back. "And then afterwards, maybe we will let you…..sit in on the game." He said. She nodded.

She knew what he meant. She'd be thrown into the pot at the last minute and whoever won would get a night with her. Then after she'd been with Chris and whoever won the game, she'd still have to give herself freely to Alex. She felt disgusted with herself. Like she was some sort of hooker and not his wife. She cringed and threw her hands out against the counter as he pulled up her skirt and thrust himself inside of her. She closed her eyes wishing she was a million miles away. This was definitely going to be a long night.
