I’m not lying to you, I swear! I shout at him, desperately trying to make him leave me alone. He remains stood in front of me, fists clenched violently. His face is turning a bright shade of red and he suddenly lunges forward, grabbing a fistful of my jumper. 1 scream, fear building up inside my body.

I can’t take another beating, not again. I still haven’t healed fully from the last one and I don’t know whether my body can handle it.
I feel myself being dragged forward and I lose my balance, tripping over my own feet.
“You’re going out to sleep with someone. Look at you, all dressed up! You look cheap, it’s disgusting!” Trevor roars in my face, foaming at the mouth in a drunken rage. His free hand reaches into his pocket, pulling out a small object.
My eyes instantly zone in on it and widen in fear as it finally dawns on me, he’s holding a knife. He flicks it open, eyes twinkling with sick pleasure.
“It’s about time I got rid of you.”
The blade glistens in front of my eyes. I immediately silence, my body frozen in place.
“Please don’t do this,” I plead, my throat closing over until it’s hard to breathe. His hand grips onto me and shoves me against the wall forcefully.
“You can beg me all you like, I hated you from the minute I laid eyes on you.” Trevor hisses, the blade growing closer to me. I scream out loud, my frightened yells bouncing off the walls and floating around us. I reach up, scratching at his hold so that I can escape.
It only causes him to hold on tighter.
The cool feeling of the blade pressing against my throat silences my screams for help and I whimper, tears streaming down my
cheeks.
“Mum will never forgive you,” I whisper, desperately searching his cold eyes for any sign of human sympathy. Cold black bottomless pits stare back at me and I blink, tearing my eyes off him. It’s no use, he’s a monster.
“Your mother hates you too.” He hisses in my face, the blade pressing further into my skin. Any further force and I know it’ll eventually pierce the tender skin. I suck in a sharp breath, squeezing my eyes shut tightly. Hot tears stream down my cheeks and I have no option but to continue begging for my life.
A knock on the front door causes Trevor to freeze, growing silent. He clamps his hand over my mouth, muffling out the whimpers coming from me.
“Don’t say a word or I’ll kill you.”
I nod desperately, my eyes dropping down to the knife that’s still pressed against my throat. Relief washes over me, silent tears streaming down my face as Trevor pushes me backwards into the living room, out of sight. He clears his throat and heading towards the front door.
I stand up shakily, my vision blurred from my tears. My legs are shaking underneath my weight, threatening to give in any second.
This is it… my chance to escape.

Chapter 24
87
I run up the stairs two at a time, locking myself in my room. I don’t feel safe. I grab my phone off the side, the screen brightly lit up with a text from Jake.
Where are you?
I quickly reply, my fingers shaking in fear.
Please help me, he’s trying to kill me.
I send the text quickly, my chest heaving with heavy sobs. My phone pings straight away and I read the text, my vision blurry due to
the tears.
I’m on my way, pack a bag Muffin.
I do as Jake says, grabbing the biggest bag I own before throwing in clothes, shoes, makeup and my school work. I place the photo of me and my dad on top of the pile before zipping it up. My hands are trembling and I sit on my bed, breathing deeply to calm myself down.
It suddenly dawns on me that Jake doesn’t know where I live. I reach for my phone again and ring him but he doesn’t answer.
“No!” I yell out in frustration, letting out a scream.
Jake’s POV –
I instantly know something is wrong when she doesn’t show up to the park. I’d written her that note because I knew she’d probably forget and I need to see her again. I didn’t want her to leave this morning but it took everything I had to stand back and let her go knowing what happens inside that house.
