Jackson seized Lisa's flailing arms as she desperately struggled to break free from his grasp.

"Stop fighting me," he demanded

"No way in hell." Lisa screamed. I shouldn't have allowed it to happen the first time.

Jackson clamped his hand over her mouth muffling her cries. "Shut up, Leese!" Jackson said angrily.

Lisa pretended to comply with his order and then took the opportunity to bite down on Jackson's hand and he cursed from the sudden pain. He yanked his hand away, momentarily distracted and at the same time Lisa used her feet to kick him squarely in the chest knocking him backwards off the bed. Scrambling off the mattress, she ran down the hallway.

Jackson quickly picked himself up off the floor and sprinted after Lisa. Grabbing her arm, he pulled her back towards him as she yelped in pain. However she refused to give up. Fighting wildly against him, she yanked her arm backwards trying frantically to wrench herself free. Suddenly she felt his arms wrap around her chest successfully rendering her helpless as he pinned her thrashing limbs to her side.

"Let me go" she screamed furiously.

Jackson simply tightened his hold on Lisa as he whispered mockingly into her ear. "I'm a little disappointed in you Leese. I thought you cared about your family, especially with Alexis just down the hallway."

Lisa immediately froze at his words. "You won't hurt her." Lisa said, trying to keep her voice firm.

"Oh, really," he answered sarcastically. "I don't think you realize how serious I am. Maybe I need to convince you."

She wildly shook her head in agony at his suggestion.

"I warned you what would happen if you didn't listen to me." Jackson said calmly as he dragged Lisa back to the bedroom.

"Please don't do this" Lisa begged. "She's only a child"

Jackson didn't say anything in reply, pushing her inside the bedroom and closing the door behind her.

Lisa pounded on the door trying to delay Jackson's intentions. Unable to leave the room and protect her daughter, she leaned against the door straining to hear anything that might take place. She knew it was her fault that her little girl could be hurt now and it was tearing her up inside. Finding herself unable to stand any longer, Lisa fell to the floor unable to withhold her tears any longer

Jackson let himself into Alexis bedroom and found her curled up on the bed appearing like she had been crying but Jackson felt no sense of sympathy for her.

Alexis looked up to see who had entered and immediately looked away too scared to make further eye contact.

"Come here!" Jackson demanded from the doorway

Alexis shook her head refusing to go anywhere with him out of fear.

"Now!" he screamed at her

Alexis didn't want to leave the safety that the bedroom seemed to offer but she was growing increasingly frightened of what would happen if she refused. She slowly lifted herself off the bed and walked over to where he stood.

He quickly grabbed a hold of her small arm and dragged her towards her mother's bedroom.

Lisa pushed herself away from the door when she heard a key turning in the lock and pressed her body against the wall instead. Fighting back against Jackson now could just result in more danger for both Lisa and her daughter.

Jackson entered shoving Alexis in front of him and she immediately ran to her mother for comfort.

Lisa examined her daughter for injuries that Jackson may have inflicted but found none. Maybe he didn't go through with his threat. She thought hopefully.

"Get up" he said forcefully, glaring at Alexis who was sitting on her mother's lap. Lisa wrapped her arms protectively around her daughter.

"I'm the one you're mad at!" Lisa cried out. "Don't take it out on her!"

"You need to learn the consequences to your actions." he said smugly, enjoying Lisa's obvious pain

"You can't have her" Lisa said defensively, standing up with her daughter and pushing her behind her.

Jackson walked away from the door, slamming it shut with one swift movement.

He roughly pulled Lisa away and shoved her towards the bed while producing a pair of handcuffs from his back pocket. He quickly clamped one around her wrist while attaching the other end to the headboard.

Lisa immediately yanked on the handcuff, attempting to break free moaned in pain as the metal seemed to cut into her wrist.

Alexis tried to run to her mother but Jackson easily grabbed her by her small waist and lifted her away from the bed carrying her to the corner furthest from Lisa.

She frantically kicked at his shins in hopes that he would relinquish his grip. "Just like your mother." he muttered to himself as he set her down in front of him and grasped her arm firmly, holding her still.

Lisa couldn't bear to see her daughter so frightened, being completely unable to do anything to intercede.

"She didn't do anything wrong! Please Jackson, punish me! Not her!" Lisa begged him forcing back tears that threatened to emerge.

Jackson ignored Lisa's pleas and twisted the arm he was holding of Alexis' behind her back.

She screamed in pain and Jackson quickly clamped his hand over her mouth muffling her cry.

Lisa's anger at Jackson motivated her to pull harder against the restraints unaware of the pain of the cuff tearing into her flesh.

Jackson kept his hand over her mouth as she started crying and felt a surge of annoyance. He bent down behind Alexis so he was at her level and brushed the hair away from her ear. "This was your Mommy's fault. If she would have played by the rules you could still be lying safely on your bed."

"That's not true!" Lisa cried out "Your just using me as an excuse to hurt her, you coward!"

"Hey Leese," he said looking up at her from behind Alexis "How much force do you think it would take to break a three year old's arm?"

"You wouldn't…" Lisa said defiantly.

Jackson twisted her arm harder and Lisa heard her daughter cry out in pain followed by the sickening crack of bones.

Alexis grew limp in his arms from the pain and faded out of consciousness.

He glanced up at Lisa whose mouth was open in horror. "Maybe I should move onto her other arm?" he asked mockingly.

"Stop!" Lisa demanded "Please, just stop! I'll do whatever you want, I promise! Just don't hurt her anymore."

"I don't believe you." he said shortly

"I swear I won't fight you this time!" she pleaded, anxious for her daughter's agony to end.

Jackson gazed at Lisa uncertainly for a moment deciding whether or not to believe her and quickly came to a decision and released his hold on Alexis' other arm.

Alexis collapsed to the floor without Jackson to support her.

He turned away from Alexis and went to retrieve the first aid supplies in the adjoining bathroom. When he emerged he casually walked back over to Alexis and picked up her injured arm. With a quick movement of his hand he jerked the bone back in place and Alexis moaned in response to the pain. Before wrapping her arm up he injected her with a dose of cortisone to decrease inflammation of the joint.

Once finished Jackson picked Alexis up and approached Lisa who was still trying to break free of the restraint on her wrist. "When I come back, I expect you to live up to your promise" He said fingering Lisa's partly open blouse.
