As I stared into his eyes, I knew he was gone. The man I knew is dead. The man who now stands before me is nothing but a crazy psychopath. He kills anything and everything that stands in his way. At first, he was such a kind and gentle soul, but I changed him. I told him to do the unthinkable and out of his love for me he did it. I told him to kill his family. His wife and son. We were having an affair, a very well hidden one, and I knew that as long as his wife and son were around, we would be secret forever. He couldn’t just divorce his wife though, you see he is very rich and unfortunately he hadn’t made her sign a prenup so she would’ve taken him for all he is worth. I couldn’t let her do that, so we devised a plan.750Please respect copyright.PENANA7Dyirt8GPy

I came up with it because well, I am the intelligent one. He followed through with it. The plan was for him to shoot both his wife and son and get rid of the evidence. No one would suspect him of the murder because he was quite the actor. Everyone knew him as the family man. He was always buying his wife gifts and telling her he loved her. I know he loved his son very much. He was seventeen and the spitting image of his father. It must have be hard for him to kill his son. He was the one thing, besides me, that he loved most.750Please respect copyright.PENANAsiP5pj4Xj7

After he had killed his family, I noticed a change in him, but nothing too drastic. Otherwise, I would have known that I had to do something. The day I knew that he had changed to the point of no return, was the yesterday. It had been exactly a week after the murder. We were in his apartment when I had caught him red handed. Literally. His hands were stained with a red substance that I knew was blood. “What did you do?” I asked worriedly. He turned and faced me with the most twisted face I had ever seen. His smile was demented and I saw something evil in his eyes.750Please respect copyright.PENANA0EeX4GMu5T

“I killed him” he said with a crazy smile. He had a twinkle of lunacy in his eyes that I couldn’t unsee. He started to laugh maniacally and he stared right into my eyes as he did so. I shivered at how surreal the whole scene was. “It felt so…amazing” he had said while still laughing. “I want to do it again” he said. He walked toward his bedroom and motioned for me to follow. I hesitated but I felt that maybe it wasn’t the time to disobey a lunatic.750Please respect copyright.PENANAPpun7NGLka

I followed him and what I saw, I wish I could scrub out of my memory. There was a man on the ground. He was dismembered and his body parts all over. Blood was on the sheets of bed, the bed we had made love on just the night before. The man’s mid-section was at the entrance of the room and his intestines looked like they had been grabbed out of his body. It was a very disturbing scene to say the least. My lover bent down and put his hand into the midsection and took out an organ. He then proceeded to take a bite out of it.750Please respect copyright.PENANACoy2VyqclQ

I almost puked at the sight. After he was done consuming the dead man’s insides, he smiled at me. I quivered at the glimpse of him with blood all over his mouth and a maniacal look in his eyes. He approached me and grabbed me by my waist. “You look fetching tonight” he said. He grabbed my face and pressed his lips harshly against mine. I almost gagged as I felt the blood of his victim transferring from his face to mine. I tried to pull away from him but he held on tight.750Please respect copyright.PENANAYCzt3KJeJC

He pushed me onto the blood covered bed and had his way with me. I tried with all my might to resist but it was no use. He forced himself on to me. He put his blood covered face and hands all over my body. I cried but he had no sympathy. I knew it was my fault he had become that way. I am responsible for the monster he is now. Oh how I wish I could take it back.750Please respect copyright.PENANAXQwBY9a9fX

Once he was done with me, I raced home. I wanted to forget the night. I bathed at least twenty times and scrubbed every inch of my body raw. I knew I would never be the same. I couldn’t sleep because all I dreamt of was the dead man and the monsters hands all over me. Every time I closed my eyes I relived the whole nightmare all over. So I didn’t sleep. I laid in bed and prayed to God for the rest of the night.750Please respect copyright.PENANAY850u43uUQ

Now my nightmare stands before me once again. “You still love me right?” he asks as with a hint of lunacy in his voice. I stand there crying and shaking in my dark apartment. He puts his hand on my face and says “Oh baby, don’t cry. I’m here, I will protect you.” How do you tell a lunatic that he’s the one you need protection from? He kisses me gently on the forehead. “Um, can you please leave?” I ask. Immediately I know I shouldn’t have said the. He becomes infuriated.750Please respect copyright.PENANASWoptwzQhl

“Have you found another man?” he yells angrily. I shake my head and start to breathe heavily. I’ve never been more frightened in my life than I am now. “Then what? Huh?” he asks. He comes closer to me and I try to back away but he grabs my arm. He holds it too tight. “You’re hurting me” I cry. He cocks head to the side and asks “Am I?” He picks me up and drags me to the bedroom. Not this again.750Please respect copyright.PENANAyg28PvqDyL

He throws me on my bed and gets on top of me. He presses his lips hard against mine and holds my arms down with his hands. I squirm trying to get free but he’s too strong. “Stop moving” he barks. I don’t do what he says. I keep trying to get away. “I’ve had enough of this” he says. He puts his hands around my necks and begins to strangle me. I try to get his hands of my neck but it’s hard. I can’t breathe.750Please respect copyright.PENANA0HMf4TMfsH

Then I think of great weak spot. I kick him in his groin and he immediately responds to the pain. He lets go of my neck and I gasp for air. I fall off the bed and try to drag myself out of the room and to my purse to call 911 from my cellphone. I hear him regain his strength and once again he is on top of me. I decide to let go. I don’t want to live. What am I even fighting for? He was all I had and look what I’ve turned him into. He proceeds to strangle me and I just lay there until everything goes black.750Please respect copyright.PENANAPwipcOl6z6
