A sense of panic overcame her, and she slowly tried to pull out of his grasp. Bill felt her move and gripped tightly, digging his fingers into her soft cheeks. “I’ll show you what will happen if you ever doubt me again!” he said, screaming into her ear. He held on tighter and drug her to the other side of the trailer. Anna dug her feet into the carpet and screamed as she tried to pry his hands away.
This story is based on the actual events of Anna, an abused woman who had suffered mental and physical abuse since childhood. Anna had just escaped from an abusive marriage when she met Bill, a handsome man who eventually wooed her into marrying him. Anna thought she had found the perfect husband, but the honeymoon was soon over when she realized that Bill wasn’t a gentleman at all, but was an abusive drunk who would subject her to mental abuse and physical beatings. Out of embarrassment she hid her bruises from her family and suffered his abuse in silence. But, one night when Bill came home drunk and boasted of an affair, something clicked in Anna’s mind.
