Prologue

Alissa

"Why do you always do this to me?" I’m not sure if it’s a slap or a punch, but it’s strong enough to throw me to the ground, I cower in the corner of the door and hug my knees in a failed attempt to protect myself.

"That answer is simple Alissa, you took your mother from me, she was not strong enough to abort you and ended up dying in childbirth, you took the only woman I loved, and I continued loving her even when she betrayed me with her father." 

After so many years I finally understand him, William misses my mother, his pain makes him blind, but he does not understand that I also have my suffering, I could not meet her, knowing that I killed her is something that will torment me for the rest of my life.

"You took it away from me and deserve to die Alissa" I shrink even more with each step towards me, William grabs my hair and cries for the pain of feeling several strands of hair coming loose, I realize that he is dragging me to the basement and widens his frightened eyes, I’m afraid to be down there alone, it’s dark and cold, I should be used to it, because I’ve spent countless nights in the basement, however I know it’s impossible to get used to fear.

He opens the basement door and throws me, roll down the stairs and my head meets the floor, groan of pain and I put my hand on my head, I find a small amount of blood in my hand, however I think it’s nothing to worry about.

I spend the night in fear and cold, I hear no noises indicating that William is home, I’m afraid he’s gone and come back days later leaving me here alone and hungry.

I don’t know exactly how long I’m here, I can’t keep track of the time, but at some point the door opens, I cautiously climb the stairs, this may be some William’s prank to throw me back down the stairs, but when I reach the top I just find silence.

I take small steps trying not to make noise and reach the room, I find William and I’m in shock staring at the scene, I take several erratic steps back until I find the wall behind me, my heart beats unchecked, I can not move, just look at the sight in front of me stunned.

There is no more Willian, actually there are only pieces of him.
