Ivy's pov.
I'm back in the apartment alone scared I'm running thru the house no doors will open. He's coming i can hear him growl running something slammed into my back pushing me into the floor hitting my head. I feel the pain of something shredding my back I scream as the pain rips me apart passing out. I know it's him every night I relive this night. I wake up blindfolded tied to my dinner table naked I can feel my blood under me.
" you think you can leave me. You think you have any say in what I do or who I do hahaha" he laughs hysterically as he slices into my skin again and again.
" you are nothing but a pet I keep why do you think I put up with you even after you became a useless it's simple. You have a pretty face and had money but now that you are going to be fully useless. Your money has dried up you can't work and give me contacts and we both know your friends service me it's why I never needed you for that. They ride my cock so much that I'm fully satisfied for days " he taunts me again as he keeps digging in to my flesh as I scream.
" MISS IVY MISS IVY WAKE UP PLEASE " I hear as I'm pulled out of my nightmare.
Someone is holding me tightly as I have a panic attack. I'm pinned to his chest shacking and sobbing as he rocks me in his arms.
" it's okay you are safe no one can hurt you know we have you " Henry whispers trying to calm me I think he is shacking to.
Typsy licks my face trying to reassure me and it works I feel myself relax in his arms as Typsy rests herself on my chest. Once I get myself under control I lift my head from his chest and release I'm sitting on his lap.
" thank you sorry for disturbing your sleep" I whisper my voice breaking with pain. I must have been screaming in my sleep again.
" does this happen often and you have nothing to be sorry for" he tells me stroking my hair. I nod not looking at him.
" they will stop with time trauma like what you survived does take time. Have you told your doctor that you have these nightmares. I'm surprised he hasn't given you sleeping medication" he asks
" no I haven't I thought it would just stop as time goes by. That's why I got this place it should help me get out of that apartment." I tell him as I get up.
" okay I can see if there are any herbal remedies to aid in restful sleep but if you still don't settle down after some time then please see a doctor for medication to help you sleep thru the night " he says as he gets up.
" it's a bit early but I will go and make you a coffee and breakfast as you get changed. They will arrive in a few hours where would you like your breakfast " he asks me.
" I think the green house will be nice to watch the sunrise" I tell him as I make my way to the closet.
I hear the door closed behind him as I pick out some baggy jeans a strap top and hoodie. At least this is one plus to being here I can wear what I'm compatible in. Once dressed I slip my slippers on making my way to the dresser and brush my hair styling it in a braid. Starting the timer on my watch let's see how long it takes me to get to the green house.
I'm dieing I need my meds maybe I should keep my morning ones in my room 20 minutes to get here. FUCKING 20 MINUTES and the pain in my back feels like I'm being burnt alive.
" I think from now on I will bring your coffee and medication to your room in the morning and then you can come down for your meal. You should not be starting your day off in so much pain it will impact on the rest of your day more so after your nightmare. " he points out like it's helpful. I give him a deadpan look as I take my meds like
' no shit sherlock'
I'm given bacon, sausages, with cheesey eggs, French toast and fruit cocktail for breakfast. I don't normally eat breakfast but I managed to eat half of it. He still doesn't look happy though does this guy even know how to smile.
" you don't seem to have a very good appetite is it due to your pain" he asks as he clears the plates.
" I've been like this for a years now" I tell him he doesn't need to know why.
" I will make adjustments to the size of your meal to accommodate you. Is it okay to give the left overs to Typsy" he asks.
" yeah she will love that" I tell him as Typsy jumps up giving him the eyes to say come on hurry up I chuckle at her.
They leave together Typsy going through her doggy door. I had them fitted to every door in the house after that incident so she is never locked out again. It messed with both of us after the attack she wouldn't leave me alone. She was a good girl and let the doctors do their work but she had to keep eyes on me at all times. They had to put us on the ground floor with opening door and someone had to block the door open just so she could keep eyes on me when she needed out. It would have been funny if it wasn't so sad I guess one day we will laugh at how she had to watch me while she peed.
So what should I do today I know that the new security guy is coming with his brother who is good at gardening. Truth be told I think they are all security guys Dan said they are like his family and since he has some other jobs he needs to do and can't be here yet he sent me these guys. He is one over protective guy for sure. His security company is the one who saved me but because they failed to keep me from getting hurt the boss ie Dante came to apologising in person since then he is the one who has done everything for me. He even helped me with this place and got it finished just in time for me to be released from hospital. I never told my ex about me winning the lottery or buying this place. My plan was to leave him and live here while it was getting fixed up but that plan went to shit quick 8 months in the hospital learning to walk again after a head injury and missing the fun of building your dream home sucked.
