Xavier and you had been in an arranged marriage for a few months now. At first, everything seemed fine. But slowly, things started to change. Xavier became controlling, manipulative, and abusive.

He would constantly monitor your every move, not letting me go out of the house without him by your side, abusing you and leaving bruises on your body, you felt trapped.

One evening, Xavier came home drunk. you could tell by the way he stumbled into the house and slurred his words. you tried to approach him, to offer support and see if he needed any help. "What the hell are you doing?" he slurred, his eyes glazed over with anger.
