ZACHARY I Fucked up - I know I did!I should've told her the truth from the start, I should've told her about Blake. She deserved better than that. The truth is, I've known for months now that Blake and I weren't right for each other. I've known this even before Kate came along. Blake is that kind of woman that's used to getting what she wants, I was working my way up to breaking it to her gently. But now here we are...Blake glared at me, her hands were folded across her chest."What the hell do you mean we're over? We're not over. You're joking,Right? This is just a joke!"I sighed."I'm sorry. I've been trying to tell you for awhile.""Really? All those time we've spent in bed together you were trying to tell me. Were your moans of pleasure too distracting from what you really wanted to say?" "I tried to make it work, but yo

CHAPTER 11:THE FIRST DATE.

The Abusive Man /Natalie Roche

EMILIAZach pulled his car up by the docks, the sun was shinning down on us and the water was calm. I didn't know why we were here of all places. We're supposed to be on our first date. I looked across at Zach, sitting in the drivers seat."What are we doing here?" "Do you see that yacht?"He asked, and pointed towards a yacht on the water. I nodded my head in reply."That's mine. You and I are going to spend the weekend on it."The weekend alone with him on the water, the thought of being alone on a yacht didn't worry me. We live together, when we're at home we're always alone. "That's some surprise. But you know I'm not going to sleep with you, Right?" I had to put it out there. Being alone on the water is pretty romantic, I don't want him thinking that he can get into my pants that easily. He chuckled."I wasn't expecting that. I just want to spend some time a

CHAPTER 12:THE MORNING AFTER THE NIGHT BEFORE.

The Abusive Man /Natalie Roche

I woke, seeing his head on the pillow next to mine. Sound asleep and looking so handsome. I thought back on last night, how drunk I was, but I wasn't drunk enough that i didn't remember what happened.We talked after the kiss, we drank wine, a lot of it-Well I did! Things got a little heated between us and I remember the feeling of how much I wanted him. Zach said that it wasn't the right time and nothing happened after that. We fell asleep together and now I'm completely mortified.Maybe I should make a run for the bathroom and avoid the embarrassment before he wakes up. I moved the sheet off me and sat up quietly."Where do you think you're going?"He said, and wrapped his arm around me pulling me over to him."Were you trying to do a runner before I woke up?""Um, Maybe! I was go

CHAPTER 13:THE SCAR

The Abusive Man /Natalie Roche

Michelle's pampering of me was making me feel like Cinderella getting ready for the ball. My make up was done to perfection and my hair was in loose curls that flowed effortlessly, looking at my reflection in the mirror I felt good about myself.When Zach invited me to a retirement party that he was throwing for a member of his staff, I was hesitant at first. I wasn't keen on the idea of being in a crowded room with people that I didn't know.But on the other hand, I wanted to spend time with him, even if it is in an outdoor setting. I didn't have a good excuse not to go, Zach knows my day to day pretty well."Did you shave?"Michelle asked, whilst looking at me in the mirror.I was sitting on the fabric chair in my bedroom, staring back at her."Yes, I shaved."

CHAPTER 14:I'M ON TO YOU.

The Abusive Man /Natalie Roche

Introductions at the retirement party were going well, everyone was so nice and welcoming. Despite that, I still couldn't help the overwhelming feeling that came over me with being out in public. So many new faces and not many places to hide.. If Liam was in this crowd I wouldn't even know it. So many men around me with similarities to him, weather it's hair colour, dark features or his loud obnoxious laugh. This is my life.. This is what I have to get used to. I got out, I'm away from him, and because of that I'm going to spend the rest of my life looking over my shoulder wondering IS TODAY THE DAY?? Zach snaked his arm around my waist and I jumped at the sudden contact. "You're a little on edge, Kate. Is there something wrong?"

CHAPTER 15:DOING THE DEED

The Abusive Man /Natalie Roche

ZACHARY I noticed Kate acting a little off at tonight's retirement party. Maybe it was a little much for her meeting so many new faces at once. I don't know!! She can be hard to read sometimes. It's a little hard to find out what's going on in her head.. Her life too.. The life she had before she came here. "Is everything okay?"I asked, as I closed the front door behind us. "Sure, I'm fine."She replied. The only words that she had spoken to me since we left the bar. She wasn't chatty at all, it was clear that there was something. "Really, Because you were a little off tonight and I thou
