The Baby He Took, The Empire I Took Back

Ethan kept me as his plaything for three years.

In bed, he called me his baby. But the moment he got up, he forced birth control pills down my throat.

Behind my back, he told everyone I was just a pet, a human shield to protect the woman he actually loved. He said he would throw me away when he got bored.

The day I found out I was pregnant, he personally pinned me to the operating table. He ordered the doctors to scrape my womb clean, without any anesthesia.

So I jumped into the freezing ocean, faking my death along with our unborn child.
