Entering the house she’d barely escaped with her life seven years ago felt like being led to the gallows. With every step into the brightly lit interior, despite the fact it was nearing midnight, her stomach was rolling with the need to vomit. Her eyes flicked to the bench and then the stairs where she last saw Kiefer with Laoise on his lap while their hips mimicked the intimate movements of sex, despite their clothing on.

Her heart hammered with the pain and the need to curl into a ball and scream into the ether almost took her over, but she put one foot in front of the other. At the far end of the hall, the steps which led down to the wine cellar where she’d been shoved down while the two women and their little posse chased her down to kick her while she lay there mocked her. She could almost hear Laoise’s high-pitched voice squealing about making sure the green card wife didn’t have any biological reason to stay connected to her man.

Unable to stop herself she turned and immediately gravitated towards the nearest container which happened to be a large potted plant and vomited profusely.

“Fuck.”

smack his hand away. However, as she clutched the oversized pot in her hands, blackness pushing into her vision wanting to suck her down into it, she was unable to stop him from rubbing her back and whispering to her to let it all out.

Vaguely she heard Kiefer order Jerren to take the sleeping Egan up to the spare room immediately next to Kiefer’s room and then he was also at his knees next to her.

“Gen, I’m sorry. Shh.” His voice was he rubbed her low back while Tadgh rubbed her upper back was soothing.

“Fuck you. Did you do it on purpose?” she was gulping for air.

“What baby? What do you think I did?”

“The lights on in the wine cellar? The door wide open?” she croaked as the pain permeated her chest, spreading like wildfire as the memory of being helpless to save her unborn son filled her. “Were you looking for a reaction? You got it. Now stop fucking touching me.” She shoved both of them away from her and felt frustration when they both immediately put their hands on her again. “I’m not weak!” she spat furiously,

“No baby, nobody would ever call you weak,” Tadgh whispered softly.

deal with, such as finding a way to escape from this hellhole and taking her son with her. It would help if he wanted to leave willingly. She’d have to play the long game.

Kneeling there, she forced her breath to even out aware Kiefer was silent as she stared unseeingly at a green leaf of the plant she’d just defiled. Was he annoyed at his brother for getting to her first? Was he pissed off she ruined his plant? Why was he so quiet? Shooting him a sideways glance, she noted how pale he was as if in shock. A single tear drop rolled down his cheek as he looked worriedly at her.

Sneering, she let a bitter laugh bubble up from her chest. “What is your problem? You’re not the one dragged back kicking and screaming into a house where the occupants murdered your child and then put the torture chamber on display for her the minute she entered.” Shoving him backwards, she didn’t register he’d fallen completely backwards on his bottom.

Tadgh moved to whisper at Kiefer, and she managed to shakily get on her feet and stumble backwards away from them. She looked up the stairs where she knew Jerren took Egan and began climbing them, each step an agonizing reminder of how much she was hurting. The pain was visceral as if her entire body was on fire, but she forced herself to keep going. She was going to find her son and wrap her arms around him and find healing in the living breathing sounds of the little snores she knew would be coming from his sleepy form.

She entered the room to find Jerren removing Egan’s shoes from his feet.

“I can do it.” Her voice was already damaged from all the screaming she’d done at the mall. Now it felt a hundred times worse with the acrid taste of bile coating her throat. “I need our overnight bags for his pjs.”

“You could let him sleep in his t-shirt and underwear, tonight, Genesis. No need to disturb him to get changed.”

“You don’t know my kid, Jerren but he sleeps like the dead. I could throw a party in here right now and he wouldn’t notice. The person Astra and I took him to, the one who said he was gifted spiritually told us he sleeps deeply because it’s recharging his connections to the spirit world.”

“That’s weird.”
