The Secret

Jenna felt a shooting pain as she fell back on the bed with a thump. Unable to move she heard Peter’s footsteps moving away. The door slammed and the key turned in the lock. She was alone. Jenna blinked, adjusting her sight to the dark room where he had left her. Barely clothed, she shivered, feeling cold and afraid.

If only she had stood up to him, trusted him and told the truth, she might not have found herself in this situation.Straining, Jenna wondered if he was still outside.

“Peter,” she called. “There’s something you need to know …”

  1. Oh wow Naomi, you ran out of words. Well, I don't blame Peter. Gawd, there is nothing worse that asking a woman what's wrong and she says - "Nothing". Duh, who are you kidding?

    Besides, when Peter comes home early - in the middle of the day and she's laying on a rumpled bed and "barely clad", well 'nothing' is not a good answer.

    This is a very intriguing post Ms Naomi, I think you should consider turning it into a shortie story. What happens next?
