Chapter 12
At dawn, I cracked the bedroom door open, then coughed deliberately in Alex’s voice before darting into the wardrobe.
Moments later, Susan and Amelie burst in with a broom handle and a baseball bat.
They immediately laid into the figure bundled under the covers.
“You bitch! You dared hit me yesterday? I’ll make sure you can’t get out of bed for a month!” Amelie shouted, her strikes landing with heavy thuds.
Susan wasn’t as strong, but she was vicious. She jabbed the broomstick mercilessly between the thighs, like she was drilling for oil.
“You filthy whore! You forced me to eat a rag. Once I’m done, I’ll make you eat straight from the toilet bowl!”
Whack! Whack! Whack!
“Mmphhh! Mmphhh!”
く
The room echoed with their violent duet.
Then Amelie froze. She’d spotted blood seeping through the blankets.
“Stop, Mom! That’s enough!”
“If we kill her, we’ll be in trouble, and we’d lose a housemaid too.
Susan nodded. “That tramp’s taken enough of a beating. She’ll behave for a while.”
Together, they yanked back the covers to gloat over my battered body.
Click.
My phone camera captured Alex’s face, barely conscious, gagged and tied.
