Breaking Free

Katie Collins was on the run from her ex fiance, Jacob. A man who constantly watched her every move, made rude remarks about her body and appearance (especially since she was carrying his child), then physically put his hands on her when something doesn't go his way. Such as if Katie doesn't clean the house correctly or if the food that she cooked wasn't what he wanted. It's the little things that she does that brings his wrath. Katie always has to lie for Jacob, since he worked as a CEO in a high-paying job at a local bank. If she reported his abuse to the cops it would ruin his career and would only bring more pain toward Katie. 'If you ever and I mean EVER report whatever happens in this house, every bone in your fat body will be broken. That is not a guarantee, it's a promise.'Those words rang in her head every single day and that made her more afraid of Jacob.

I have called you multiple times, and even texted you." Anger and irritation rose in Jacob's voice. He was not in the mood. That was the first time

"Katie! when were you going to tell me that you were pregnant? huh? " Jacob walked out of the bathroom with a test that Katie thought she threw out. Apparently not, since he found it. Katie's face paled and she did not know what to do or say. "Uh.....well..." Before she could even say anything, Jacob's hand went across her face. Shocked, Katie gasped. She did not expect him to slap her across the face out of anger. Even though, Jacob has been calling her names and screamed at her.....this was the first that he has ever hit her. Tears filled her eyes and her hand automatically went up to her stinging cheek. "What the hell, Jacob--" Katie could not even finished a sentence before another slap happened.His eyes were a different color. It was like he was a whole different person. "Why didn't you tell me? Tell me. Now!" Katie swallowed hard. Her body trembled in fear and she never feared a man before. "Well...I just found out. I was waiting until I went to the doctor and got it confir
