As my fingertips brushed the smooth metal surface of the handle, I felt claw-like fingers sink into my fleshy hips. I cried in pure terror until the wind was knocked out of me as my back slammed against his chest. "You’re really not leaving without saying goodbye to me, are you sweetheart?" he asked with clenched teeth and emitted a wicked growl. His eyes even looked like they glowed an eerie garnet. I began to tremble as his face seemed to contort into that of a rabid dog. "Remember, you belong to me now, Laura. I have eyes on you wherever you are. If you ever dare attempt to run away or try seeking help from another man.

Alors que nous étions sur le point de partir pour le parc d'attractions, mon petit ami Bêta, Davy Carrelle, a apporté avec lui une mère et sa fille. Mais il manquait justement une place dans la voiture. Davy m'a alors demandé de descendre pour leur céder la mienne. Il a déclaré, d'un ton détaché : « Laura a du mal à s'occuper de son enfant seule. Laisse-les monter, je reviendrai te chercher plus tard. » Je suis descendue calmement, suivant des yeux le véhicule qui s'éloignait lentement de la meute. Trois heures plus tard, ils étaient bien arrivés au parc, où ils ont participé à un dîner-spectacle avec feux d'artifice. Quand mon meilleur ami a interrogé Davy sur son retard à venir me chercher, celui-ci était occupé à aider Laura à allumer un feu d'artifice. Visiblement pas pressé, il a même lâché, négligent : « Pourquoi si pressé ? Rébecca ne m'en voudra pas. Un peu de baratin, et elle oubliera sa crise. » Oui, la colère n'avait que d'effet sur ceux qui tenaient à nous... Si mon père, ma mère et mon frère s'en moquaient de moi, peu importe. Mais que Davy, lui aussi, m'ignorait à ce point… Alors, il était temps de quitter définitivement cet endroit qui ne m'apportait plus que chagrin...

` It was a cool, breezy and stormy night. Rain came down in sheets, as a dark figure stood before a house. The house was pretty ordinary, white with blue shutters; it didn't have more than two bedrooms. It looked like a cozy little family home with flowers and shrubs lining the front lawn, and then the smell from the pellet stove smoke invaded his nostrils. He took a deep breath and pulled out an old, rusted compass from his black trench coat. It looked like it could have been from the 14th century, the small, brass disc was dented and the Victorian designs were faded. He studied it as it pointed east, towards the small house. He looked the house over carefully, looking for the best entrance, before proceeding towards the side to gaze into the window. Inside you can see the small kitchen; the brand new, all black appliances off set the linoleum floor. Cabinets filled almost every wall of the small space that made it look more crowded than it should have been. The kitchen opened to a larger room which seemed to be used as a living room and a dining room all at once. The whole house looked crowded, with the furniture in the living room all touching except for a small gap to walk through and the dining room was so close to the sofa, it could have been sitting on it. He stepped back into the shadows as he watched a young couple enter the kitchen. The wife was tall and slender, had strawberry blond hair formed around her face accenting her jaw-line and her deep blue eyes stopped your heart as you got lost in them. Her fair complexion was silky and complimented her soft face.
