I stared at the video until my eyes burned.
My nails dug crescents into my palms. The pain brought me back to reality, and I clicked ‘Continue’.
The man on screen moved with rough urgency. He was relentless, causing the woman to cry out in pain.
Though his face stayed hidden, the jagged scar peeking beneath his cuff seared my vision.
Unable to bear it anymore, the woman pleaded for mercy.
Ethan Cooper leaned in and whispered in her ears, “Chiara, do you know how much I want to make you cry like this? You never listen to me. I wish I could break your legs so you’d never leave me.”
The reality hit me hard. Tears streamed down my face uncontrollably.
