"Gaston raped you? He…he raped you?" He looked at me with furrowed brows. The only thing I could do was stay silent. I nodded weakly. "I killed him."
"No you didn't. We thought you did but you didn't," my voice cracked as I spoke.
"Sweetness…" He started, placing a hand to my face with a look I couldn't determine. I flinched at his touch, and then looked into his eyes. Anger filled them. "I'm going to kill him," he said darkly, getting up and walking towards the door.
"No, Adam, please…" I started, falling back onto the side of the tub.
"Belle, I cannot let him get away with this. Look at you! He destroyed you. He physically and emotionally destroyed you. And he's going to pay," he paused and looked at me, pain filling his blue eyes.
"Please, not today," I said slowly, feeling exhaustion come over me. I touched my head and felt myself falling backward even more.
"Whoa, whoa whoa…" He started and rushed towards me, catching me and picking me up bridal style. "It's okay," he said. He picked up my nightgown and bloomers and brought me back into the bedroom, where he helped me get dressed and into bed.
Once I was comfortable, he kissed my forehead and said, "All right, I have to go."
"No," I pleaded, and felt tears in my eyes. "Please don't go. Please."
"I have to, Belle," he said, putting his coat on.
I bowed my head in defeat.
"Are you going to be all right here?" He asked, expecting me to say yes.
"No…" I whispered. Silence came over the room. Finally, Adam made his way towards me, climbing into the bed beside me, and pulling me close to him.
"Please, just hold me tonight," I begged, and his grip on me grew stronger yet. "I've got you, Darling. I've got you," and, without warning, this big, muscular man holding me, began to cry, as I shook in his arms.
