Naughty Scrabble

 

What happens when you’ve been playing Scrabble with an anonymous person online. After some Internet chatting, you realize that the two of you live in the same town and decide to meet at a local pub. What you didn’t expect was to fall in love. But what happens when the guy is deranged?

Chapter 1

Wendie had been playing online scrabble for two months with someone going by the username, "TheDoctor." At first it started out playing spelling innocent words. Then it suddenly turned to spelling naughty words, words that revealed that this user wanted something more from Wendie. TheDoctor asked for her email so they could chat privately and not on the "Scrabble" website. Wendie agreed and gave TheDoctor her email so they could chat privately online. That was when their "Scrabble" game became naughty.

"So, SexyVixen, what are you wearing?" TheDoctor typed.

"What would you like me to be wearing?" Wendie typed back.

"Nothing. I want you naked 24/7/365."

"Oh really!"

"Your photo you sent me tells me you're one sexy mama. I want to my hands all over you."

"You look hot as well. I want to kiss you all over."

"Well, SexyVixen, where do you live?"

"McCall, Idaho, Baby."

"Really? So do I. OMG! We have to meet now that we're in the same town." TheDoctor typed.

"Oh, geez. All this time we've been chatting, we were nearby? Wow!"

"So, let's get together."

"When?"

"Tomorrow night, at the 'Pita Pit.' "

"Okay."

"Wear something red, so I'll recognize you. Plus, I think you would look amazing in red."

"Okay. Red it is. Gotta go. Tomorrow night. Pita Pit?"

"Yes. Tomorrow night. Pita Pit."

"See ya tomorrow."

After all this time chatting online, they have been in the same town all along? Wendie couldn't wait to meet TheDoctor. He sounded so naughty and Wendie needed some lovin' real bad. She couldn't believe that it started out playing Scrabble with an anonymous person online then onto naughty chats online. Wendie was intrigued by TheDoctor. She just wondered why he never revealed his real name? But then again, she had yet to reveal hers as well.

Chapter 2

Wendie waited at the Pita Pit for over an hour for TheDoctor. After two hours waiting, Wendie decided to leave. She couldn't understand why he didn't show up like they planned? Then the worst thoughts came to mind. What if he was lying to her? Friends and family did warn her about meeting people publicly over the internet. Wendie wondered if TheDoctor really wanted to meet her or if he was just playing games. She decided that TheDoctor just wasn't worth her time and decided to forget about him.

She went home and went back online and lo, there was an email from TheDoctor. It read:

"Babe, please don't be mad because I failed to show up tonight. It couldn't be helped. My little sister got hit by a car and had to go to the hospital. She is in intensive care. The doctors don't think she will come out of it. I'm sorry Babe. I was coming. Then this happened."

After reading TheDoctor's email, Wendie felt bad for the bad thoughts she had. She couldn’t' believe she thought them after the night TheDoctor had. Wendie told herself that she was bad for having the thoughts she did. Wendie went to the kitchen, opened up her fridge, took out the chocolate cream pie, and ate it all. After that was gone, Wendie was still depressed, so she dialed Pizza Hut's number and ordered a large pepperoni pizza, an order of hot spicy wings, and two liters of Pepsi.

A half an hour later, the pizza delivery guy delivered her pizza, wings and soda to Wendie. She kindly paid the guy, left him a five dollar tip, and shut herself up in her apartment, scarfing down the pizza and wings. She popped in a sad romance movie, her favorite, The Notebook. She had seen the movie so many times, there were scratches on the DVD from playing it so much. Surprisingly, it had yet to skip with all those scratches on it.

But after her food orgy and sad movie night, Wendie still felt depressed. She decided it was time for bed. Wendie got read for bed; she brushed her teeth, washed her face, put on her flannel nightgown, and laid down in her bed. But she couldn't sleep. So she picked up her favorite novel, which was any romance by Danielle Steele, and began reading. She must have read for two hours before she finally fell asleep.

Chapter 3

Wendie woke the next morning to several urgent messages waiting on her phone from the TheDoctor:

"Please Baby, call me. It's important. I really need to talk with you. I need to explain what happened. I'm so sorry for missing our date. Please forgive me. I love you."

Wendie went online to see if TheDoctor was online. Sure enough he was. He told her how much he missed her and said that he had every intention of being there, but then his sister got hit by a car and was rushed to the hospital. He told her that he was torn by loyalty to his sister but wanted so badly to be there with her.

Wendie told him it was okay, that she understood. She asked him how his sister was and TheDoctor told her that the doctors didn't know if she would make it. She asked if she could meet him at the hospital to comfort him but he told her no, that he didn't want to put this on her. After all, they hadn't even met yet; how would it look for some strange woman to show up to be with him?

Wendie told him that it shouldn't matter, all she wanted was to be with him. That was when he blew up at her and told her no, not to come. That was when Wendie signed off.

Wendie wondered what was really up. What was TheDoctor really afraid of? Was he embarrassed to be seen in public with her? Did she shame him? Wendie didn't understand why she couldn't meet him at the hospital? She wondered if she should give up meeting this guy.

Just then, there was a knock at the door. She anticipated it being TheDoctor, but it was her old friend Johnny. When she opened the door, he saw that she'd been crying. Without hesitation, Johnny came in and put his arm around Wendie. They went to the living room and sat on the sofa. Johnny asked her what was wrong. Wendie told him she didn't want to talk about it. So Johnny just held her in his arms. Then they started kissing. One thing led to another and Wendie led Johnny to her bedroom, where Johnny undressed her and laid her on the bed. Then unzipping his pants and Wendie pulled them off along with his underwear and began to fondle him. When she had gotten him hard, he entered inside her and they made love. After making love for hours, Johnny and Wendie fell asleep in each others arms.

The next morning, Wendie woke to find herself naked in Johnny's arms. She felt guilty for betraying TheDoctor and got up out of bed and wrapped a bathrobe around her. She couldn't believe she let this happen. Yes, Johnny was a close, dear friend she's known for years. But she promised to wait until she and TheDoctor met. She was in love with TheDoctor, but she slept with Johnny. Now she was confused. How was she going to explain this to Johnny? And how was she ever going to explain this to TheDoctor when they met?

Chapter 4

Wendie logged onto her email to find several messages from TheDoctor. She read everyone one of them but didn't reply back. She felt so guilty for sleeping with Johnny after promising TheDoctor not to be with other men. Wendie didn't know how she was going to deal with this situation. How could she tell TheDoctor what she had done? She neglected to reply back at all that day.

Johnny came out in just his boxers looking for Wendie. He found her at her laptop reading emails. He put his arms around her and kissed her. She pulled away begging him to leave. They got into an argument and Johnny got dressed and left her apartment.

Wendie sat in front of her laptop in silence, crying. She didn't know what to do. She was confused. Confused with her growing feelings for TheDoctor. And confused that she may have ruined a long-time friendship with Johnny.

Wendie came online to see if TheDoctor had been online. Sure enough he left several more messages. They all explained how sorry he was for missing their date and how much he missed her. He asked her to please come online. That he had been waiting all day for her. He was still online when she logged on. Wendie decided to give in and tell him about her indiscretion.

After Wendie told TheDoctor her indiscretion, he was silent for a long while. Almost like he went offline for a while. After an hour went by, TheDoctor left another message explaining his distrust in Wendie, but that he forgave her and loved her even more for telling him the truth. He told her that he wasn't giving up on them. Then he wrote something disturbing to Wendie. He asked who the guy was that she slept with. He wanted his address and email. He wanted to tell him to leave Wendie alone. That she was involved with him now and that this Johnny should respect that.

Wendie replied back that she took care of the problem and that Johnny was no longer a problem. TheDoctor replied back that he still wanted the information. He didn't trust this Johnny to respect her feelings or his. Wendie pleaded with him to let it go, but TheDoctor only insisted that she give him the information.

When Wendie still refused to give him Johnny's information, he gave her an ultimatum. Either she give him the information or he would stop speaking to her. Wendie was torn. Torn between her new friendship with TheDoctor and her loyalty to Johnny. She just wished TheDoctor would drop this. But it was clear he wasn't going to drop it so she betrayed Johnny's loyalty and gave into TheDoctor's request and gave him the information.

Wendie hoped only good would come of this.

Chapter 5

Wendie didn't hear from TheDoctor. It had been a week since he had left any message. She wondered if TheDoctor really cared for her. How could a man who claimed to love her do this to her? She decided to do the only thing she knew she could: She left a message for TheDoctor giving him Johnny's information on how to contact him. After she hit send, she was hit with a message from TheDoctor. Was he online the whole time? Was he spying on her? Stalking her online? Wendie was a little creeped out.

The message read:

“Thank you dear, my only love. I'm so glad you came to your senses. I will talk to this Johnny and tell him to leave you alone. I will tell him you belong to me. I don't want you talking to other men online. If I ever find out that you are, I will hunt these men down. Do I make myself clear? I love you and you are mine, FOREVER!”

Wendie didn't know what to think. Was it her, or did TheDoctor sound a little possessive? She was confused. She thought she loved TheDoctor, but now she didn't know. All she did was sleep with Johnny one time and The Doctor was freaking out, wanting to send Johnny a message to leave him alone. And now he tells her not to talk to other men online. Just who did TheDoctor think he was to tell her who she could or could not talk to?

Wendie left the following message to TheDoctor:

“I don't know who you think you are, but I don't think you have any right telling me who I can or can't talk to. If you don't trust me, then end it!”

TheDoctor responded within five minutes to her message:

“I'm sorry. It won't happen again.”

Wendie felt satisfied she had gotten through to TheDoctor. She loved him but no one would ever control her again. Not since her ex-boyfriend emotionally abused her by beating and controlling her. She felt relieved that TheDoctor understood that.

But that was what TheDoctor had made her think. TheDoctor was seething after reading her message. He couldn't believe that Wendie, or SexyVixen, would speak to him the way she did. When they met, he would have to set her straight. No woman would ever talk to him that way again.

Chapter 6

Wendie had not heard from TheDoctor all day. She wondered if they lived in the same town, why was it so hard for them to meet?

Well, she decided not to let it bother her. She decided to go over to Johnny's apartment and tell that they could no longer see each other. She intended to tell Johnny that the one night they did have was a mistake, that she was in love with someone else.

Wendie let herself in Johnny's apartment with the key that he gave her. She thought she would soften the blow by making Johnny breakfast. So she went to his kitchen and got out ingredients for waffles, omelet, and toast, with milk and orange juice to drink—all Johnny's favorite breakfast menu.

Wendie set Johnny's table for breakfast. Then went down the hall to wake Johnny. But she was not prepared for what she was about to see.

She knocked on Johnny's bedroom door. She got no answer. She waited a few minutes, and then knocked again. Still no answer.

“Hmmmmmm....” Wendie thought to herself. “Johnny must still be sleeping and didn't hear her.”

She decided to go in. She screamed to the grisly scene she witnessed. She saw Johnny laying in his bed, dead of an apparent gun-shot wound to the head.

Wendie stood there in shock for several minutes. Then she snapped herself out of it and did the only thing she could. She ran down the hall to the kitchen where her satchel was and pulled out her cell. Then she dialed 9-1-1 and relayed the shooting to the dispatcher. She gave Johnny's address to the dispatcher so they could send the authorities.

It took Wendie several long minutes to give the dispatcher the information she needed. The police were on the scene in about 10 minutes. They knocked on Johnny's door and Wendie answered it and let them in to investigate. Then the crime scene unit arrived to the scene shortly after the police arrived.

While CSU were doing their investigation, Officer Brady was interrogating Wendie.

“Miss, when did you discover the body?” Officer Brady inquired.

“I had something to tell Johnny, so I came over to tell him.” Wendie began. “I thought I would soften the blow, so I made Johnny his favorite breakfast.”

The officer noticed the table set for breakfast and the aroma of waffles, eggs, and toast coming from the kitchen.

“So what was it you were going to tell Johnny?” Officer Brady continued his questioning.

“I was going to break off our relationship because I had met someone new.” Wendie told him. “I had finished making him breakfast and went to wake him. I knocked on Johnny's bedroom door twice and when I got no response, I opened the door and saw him lying on his bed, dead.”

“Well, Miss Carberry, do you know anyone who wanted to hurt Johnny?”

“No. Johnny was a gentle soul. Everyone loved him.”

“Well, Miss Carberry, if you remember anything else, don't hesitate to let us know.” Officer Brady told her.

“I will, Officer.”

The CSU team relayed their findings to Officer Brady and his partner, Detective Williams. They confirmed that the apartment was now officially a crime scene and blocked it off for homicide. Officer Brady notified the apartment manager not to disturb the apartment due to the crime of murder.

Wendie couldn't believe that Johnny was gone. Wendie went back to her own apartment when Officer Brady was done questioning her. She logged onto her email to relay what happened to The Doctor.

She found several messages waiting for her from TheDoctor. One in particular, was very disturbing:

“My dear SexyVixen—I have taken care of everything. You don't have to worry about that Johnny anymore. Johnny will no longer be a bother to us.”

Wendie couldn't believe what TheDoctor was saying. Did he murder Johnny? Just what kind of man was she involved with? Wendie wondered if she should stop contacting TheDoctor. She didn't reply back to any of TheDoctor's messages after that.

Now that Johnny was gone, nothing seemed to matter. Not even TheDoctor.

Chapter 7

Wendie had not logged onto her email for a week since Johnny's death. She wondered if TheDoctor had killed Johnny himself. She did not want to know the answer, which is why she stayed offline for a week. She was so unsure about TheDoctor; everything was getting so weird since she met TheDoctor. She didn't even know his real name.

After a week, she finally logged back on her email, only to find what seemed like a hundred messages from TheDoctor. They were all pretty much the same: all professing his “love” for her, telling her how much he missed her, and wanted her to be in his life, blah, blah, blah, all the romance mushy stuff. That is until she got to the last message he wrote her just today. It totally freaked her out and made her wonder just what kind of guy TheDoctor was:

Sexy Baby,

Were the hell r u? U havnt being on for a week? I miss u like crazy. That Johnny dude is no longer a problem 4 us, so y havnt u came on to talk? I need u badly n my life. I am working making things work out to meet u. hav being getting rid of all obstacles needed done to meet u baby. U r my life and no man will take u from me. I will make sure of that. I will kill 4 u baby. No 1 will keep me from u baby.

Just what did he mean, “will kill for me?” That message really disturbed Wendie. She couldn't take it. They lived in the same town. What obstacles were preventing them from meeting? She didn't understand. So she wrote TheDoctor to ask what obstacles?

Hello TheDoctor,

I don't understand what you mean by “obstacles”? What obstacles? We live in the same town. Why is it so hard for us to meet? I don't know if I want this now. I am breaking off this. . . whatever it is. Good luck! It's over!

After Wendie hit send, she logged off her email and logged onto her Facebook account. She left the following status:

“I am going on hiatus for a few weeks, so I won't be on Facebook. I need a break from a difficult decision in my life. Please don't worry about me. I am okay. I just need some time off to think about my life and the direction it's leading me. Look forward to coming back when I've had some time for myself.”

Then she went to pack a bag for a 3-week vacation. It was sudden notice, but Wendie was sure she could swing it with her supervisor. After all, he was an understanding guy and knew all about her situation.

Wendie managed to convince her supervisor to give her the time off. So she packed her car and set off on her vacation. She had just gotten out of the city limits when Wendie noticed a Nissan Pathfinder following her. The car sped up and forced her off the side of the road. Then a tall guy with short dark hair and a beard got out of the Nissan and walked toward her beat-up Datsun. (Wendie loved that car. She had had that car since she got her first job. It was the first car she had bought. Wendie found it hard to part with the car.)

The guy headed for her Datsun and opened her door. He forced her out of her car and motioned for her to get in his. Then he grabbed her luggage and threw it in the back of his Pathfinder. Then the man started the Pathfinder and headed out of town.

There was silence for an hour, when Wendie finally spoke to the man. But the man still kept his mouth shut. He didn't speak a word until they had gotten about 5 hours from town. He had taken her to a small cabin in the woods, so deep in the woods, no one would possibly find her.

When the man stopped the car next to the cabin, he turned off the ignition, got out of the car and went around to the passenger's side. Then he pulled Wendie out and shoved her toward the cabin. As soon as they had gotten inside, the man pushed her down on the sofa. That was when Wendie finally found out the man's identity.

“Baby, it's me, TheDoctor.”

“You're TheDoctor? You don't look anything like the photo you sent me?” Wendie asked him.

“I'm sorry babe. It is a photo of a friend. I find it hard to trust women, so I didn't send a photo of myself. I've had issues with women stalking me, so I sent you a photo of someone else.”

“You thought I would stalk you?”

“My last two relationships ended up with the ladies stalking me to the point that they tried to kill me when I ended the relationships.”

“So, you instantly thought I would do the same?” Wendie asked.

“Well, I wasn't going to let it happen again.”

“So why did you practically kidnap me? I needed to have you alone. To tell you how I feel about you. Everything I've done is because I love you.”

“Everything you've done? Just what exactly have you done?” Wendie demanded.

TheDoctor refused to answer. Instead, he hit her across the face. Wendie put her hand to her face to rub where he hit her. TheDoctor felt bad. He went over and tried to console her, but she pushed him away.

“Get away from me!” Wendie screamed at him.

“Baby, I'm so sorry. Please believe me. I didn't mean to hit you. I was so worked up. Please forgive me. I won't do it again.” TheDoctor begged her.

Against her better judgment, Wendie forgave him. “Tell me one thing then.”

“What is it my love?” TheDoctor asked.

“What is your real name?”

“It's Richard Buttrey, but my friends call me Dick.”

“I won't call you 'Dick'. I think I will call you Rick.”

TheDoctor slapped her again.

“Never call me Rick!” TheDoctor demanded. “Call me Dick.”

“Okay, I'll call you Dick from now on.” Wendie cried.

That was when things got weird. TheDoctor, or Dick, grabbed Wendie by her arm and shoved her in a small bedroom and locked the door. Stunned for a few minutes as to what was happening to her, she finally managed to look around the room. What she noticed gave her the creeps.

The walls of the bedroom were covered entirely with photos of her. Then she saw it: an entire wall of photos of her and Johnny—making love! Then it hit her. TheDoctor had been stalking her for months. He had been making excuses for not meeting because TheDoctor had been stalking her and Johnny. Suddenly, Wendie felt sick. She now knew TheDoctor was the one who had killed Johnny.

Chapter 8

Wendie woke to TheDoctor, or Dick, as he had told her to call him, brushing his hand over her face.

“Hey, love!” Dick said, gazing lovingly in her face. “I brought you some breakfast.”

“I'm not hungry!” Wendie snapped.

“What's the tone for?” Dick asked. “I slaved over the stove to make you a nice breakfast, and this is how you treat me.”

Dick slapped Wendie across the face and left her to eat her breakfast of Belgian waffles, scrambled eggs, bacon, toast with orange juice and milk, alone.

Wendie moved her right hand and rubbed her left cheek where Dick slapped her. “What kind of man did she meet?” Wendie thought to herself. Just then she spied her cell lying on the floor next to the bed. She reached down and picked it up. She sighed a sense of relief when she saw she still had a full battery on her cell. She dialed 9-1-1 to report her kidnapping.

“Hello?” the dispatcher asked. “How may I help you?”

“Yes, my name Wendie Carberry. I've been kidnapped by a man I met online.”

“Yes, Miss Carberry. Can you tell me------” the line went dead.

Dick was watching Wendie from his monitor and saw her talking on her cell. He went in and snatched her cell from her hand.

“Just who do you think you are calling?!” Dick raged.

“I-I-I w-w-was t-t-talking to my-my mother.” Wendie lied.

“Well, I'm confiscating this from you.” Dick told her. “Apparently I can't trust you.”

“I'm sorry, Dick.” Wendie told him.

“Are you done with your breakfast?” Dick asked her taking her tray from her.

“Yes. I told you I wasn't hungry.”

“Well, then, get up on that bed!” Dick demanded.

“Yes, sir, I mean, Dick.” Wendie said, as she got up on the bed.

Dick climbed on top of Wendie and began kissing her. Wendie tried to resist, but Dick held her too tightly. After several minutes, Wendie was forced to give into Dick's advances.

Dick's hand moved to her breast under her blouse as he unbuttoned it and rubbed her breasts hard and sucked on her nipples. Wendie has mixed feelings of disgust and pleasure as to what Dick was doing to her. He then moved his hand down to her vaginal area where he rubbed her and shoved his fingers inside her hard. When he felt she was “liking” it, he shoved his penis inside her and thrust himself deeply it hurt. After about five minutes, Dick pulled out of Wendie and got up off her, when he had gotten what he want from her.

“That is what will happen when you disobey me!” Dick warned.

Then he left Wendie lying curled up on the bed. She was hurting bad after what Dick had just done. She lay there and cried for several hours, wondering how she had gotten herself into this situation.

Chapter 9

The next morning, Wendie woke to a beautiful floral arrangement sitting on the dresser in the barren room that had just a bed, night table and dresser. It didn't even have a lamp. Wendie got up to smell the flowers and saw the card Dick had wrote:

“My Beloved,

It warmed my heart last night when you gave yourself to me. I felt the love we shared. It was the best night of my life.

Love always,

Dick”

That was love? Wendie thought to herself. He basically raped me last night. Just who was this man Wendie had been talking to for over a year? He killed her best friend because Dick thought Johnny was stealing her from him. Now he kidnapped her and raped her because she disobeyed him? Wendie knew one thing:..she had to find a way to escape this situation and get away from Dick. But the question was, how was she going to pull it off? She did the only thing she could think of—she got down on her knees and prayed to her God.

Wendie had just finished praying when Dick unlocked the door and brought in her breakfast. It consisted of Belgian waffles with strawberries and cream with smothered in strawberry syrup, bacon, and scrambled eggs smothered in a cheese sauce, and milk and orange juice to drink.

“Here my love, I brought you breakfast.” Dick said, setting the tray down in front of Wendie.

“Where's my coffee?” Wendie asked.

Dick just slapped Wendie across the face. “Is that anyway to talk to me after I slaved in front of a hot stove to bring you breakfast?!”

“I'm sorry.” Wendie said, meekly, holding her hand to her cheek.

“I didn't hear you!” Dick yelled.

“I'm sorry, my master.” Wendie spoke up loud enough for Dick to hear.

“That's better.” Dick praised.

Before Dick left Wendie to eat her breakfast, he pulled her up and against the wall and fondled her breasts and kissed her hard on the lips.

“Remember who you belong to!” Dick said after the kiss, as he left her to her breakfast and locked the door.

Wendie sat there looking at the wonderful breakfast Dick had prepared for her. Try as she might, she just didn't have the appetite to eat it. Dick's “love” for her was just appalling to her. She just hoped that her prayer worked and she would somehow find a way out of this horrific ordeal.

Chapter 10

After two weeks of being sexually assaulted by Dick, Wendie saw her chance to escape. Wendie had earned enough trust with Dick to be let out into the living area of his home. Dick's home looked as if it hadn't been cleaned in months. But after looking at the mess, Wendie soon knew why Dick let her out.

“Here are some cleaners and rags. Get to work!” Dick demanded.

Wendie just stood there shocked.

“I have to go to work.” Dick told her. “I expect this place to be squeaky clean when I get home!”

“Yes, Master.” Wendie said, meekly.

“What? I didn't hear you!” Dick yelled.

“Yes, Master!” Wendie said, loud enough to be heard.

Dick gave Wendie a kiss on her lips before he left. A kiss that Wendie wiped off her lips as soon as Dick was out of earshot.

Before Wendie got started on cleaning Dick's house, she spotted Dick's phone on the table.

“Hello, how may I help you?” A dispatcher asked when Wendie dialed 9-1-1.

“Yes, my name is Wendie. I'm being. . .”

Dick had come back into the home when he realized he forgot his lunch. In a rage when he saw Wendie talking on the phone to the 9-1-1 dispatcher, he slammed the phone on the floor and pulled it out of the wall.

“What the hell do you think you are doing?!?!” Dick screamed at her. “I see I am going to have to teach you another lesson!”

Shoving her on the sofa and pulling up her skirt, Dick unzipped his pants and thrust his manhood inside her so hard, Wendie cried out in pain. After several minutes of being inside her, Dick got off Wendie and slapped her across the face.

“I trusted you to come out of the bedroom and what do you do?!” Dick screamed, after violating her.

Dick grabbed Wendie and locked her in the bedroom again. It took weeks to gain Dick's “trust”. She cried for an hour before realizing that she had to be smarter than Dick.

All Wendie wanted was out of this hell and fast.

Chapter 11

Dick unlocked Wendie's door to bring in her dinner. He didn't even look at her. Just set the tray with her meal on it and left the room, locking the door behind him.

Wendie picked up the lid to find Dick had made a lovely vegetable lasagna and a tossed salad with ranch dressing and fresh garlic bread.

Wendie pushed it away as she was not hungry. All she could think about was getting out of this horrible situation. She thought she met a wonderful man online, but he turned out to be a nightmare.

Suddenly, Wendie's phone managed to charge and she discovered she had a full battery. Dick hadn't taken her cell after all. She went online from her cell and logged into her Facebook account to discover she had several messages from friends and family all wondering where she was.

She told her family and friends that she was fine and was taking a long, overdue vacation. But one message from a guy who sounded particularly worried about her, she left a SOS message with him.

He replied back within seconds of her reply.

“Babe, it's me. . .Johnny! I'm alive! I faked my death so I could get you away from that insane guy you've been talking to. I looked him up online and found out all about him. I knew you wouldn't believe me if I told you about him, so I had to resort to faking my death just so I could help out! Please forgive me for everything babe. I hope you didn't have to endure too much because of me, but I promise to come get you out of your ordeal. Just trust me! --Love, Johnny”

So Johnny was alive! She couldn't believe it. And he faked his death to help me. She was so relieved to hear from him she forgave him instantly. She wrote him back immediately.

“Johnny, my beloved, I believe you and I will patiently wait for you. I forgive you for not telling me. I anxiously await your return. Just hurry soon! I love you forever! --Wendie”

And Wendie drifted off to sleep dreaming of her beloved Johnny and his return to save her.

Chapter 12

Dick came into Wendie's room in an angry rage when he saw that Wendie still had her cell phone and had fallen asleep with her Facebook profile still on her cell with her message to Johnny still on it.

When he read it, he tossed Wendie's cell across the room, shattering it to pieces and startling Wendie out of her peaceful slumber.

“So, you snuck out and took your cell after I had taken it from you!” Dick raged, slapping Wendie across the face.

“No, I didn't!” Wendie cried. “You never took it from me.”

“How the hell did that no-good Johnny survive the shooting I gave him?!”

“I don't know?” Wendie cried.

“Well, he can't talk to you again! Your phone is gone and you ain't getting another one!”

Wendie just sat there listening to Dick's rant and praying Johnny found her soon. She wondered how he did survive. She saw his body in his bedroom. Unless maybe it wasn't his body. But whose body was it, if it wasn't Johnny's? Then she remembered Johnny telling her his brother would be visiting that week. Dick must have killed Johnny's brother instead and when Johnny went back to his apartment and saw the police there, he let them think it was Johnny who died and fled town.

“Did you hear what I said?!” Dick ranted, shaking Wendie out of her thoughts.

“What? No I didn't!”

Dick slapped Wendie again. As he pushed her down on the bed, he began to kiss her violently and rape her, but a hand grabbed Dick's shoulder and shoved him off Wendie and flung him across the room. Johnny had traced Wendie's location when he called her.

Wendie was glad to see Johnny as he held her tightly in his arms.

“I'm here, babe.” Johnny told her. “Just as I promised.”

“Oh, Johnny, I'm so glad to see you.” Wendie said, giving him a kiss.

Dick didn't like what he saw and lunged forward and grabbed Johnny as the two struggled until Dick grabbed his knife in the side of his leg and started to plunge it inside Johnny's stomach when a gunshot went off.

Wendie managed to slip out unseen and steal Dick's gun in his bedroom next to hers. Dick fell to the floor almost instantly.

Wendie didn't want to wait to see if Dick was actually dead, so she grabbed Johnny's hand and ran.

They ran as far as they could go before they got tired. They managed to run to a motel where Johnny paid for a room for the two of them. As soon as they got inside the room, they instantly fell asleep and didn't wake til morning happy that Wendie's ordeal was over.

Meanwhile, Dick managed to get up and make a call despite his wounds and place a call to 9-1-1 dispatchers who managed to get authorities to his house and to a hospital where he was rushed to surgery.

Chapter 13

After a week on the run from her maniac online stalker, Wendie and Johnny found a retreat in a out-of-the-way bed & breakfast when they felt they were far enough away from Dick’s terror.

After checking in, Wendie took a shower, hopefully to get rid of the filth from being kept locked away for weeks. But no shower could cleanse Wendie if the filth after the numerous rapes she had endured.

“Wendie, I’m going across the street to the diner to get some grub.” Johnny yelled at her in the tub. “Anything you want?!”

“Surprise me!” Wendie yelled back.

Wendie soaked for 15 minutes before cleansing her body. After she got dressed and wrapped her long hair in a towel. She laid down on the bed, picked up the remote on the nearby night table and clicked on the TV. After surfing the channels to find something good on, Wendie settle on a romance movie on the Hallmark Channel. But she didn’t finish the movie as she fell asleep almost instantly as soon as she settled on the bed to watch.

Johnny arrived back at the bed & breakfast with some dinner to find Wendie fast asleep. After trying rouse her from her slumber, Johnny decided to let her sleep. After her ordeal, she obviously need it. So he put the food into the mini fridge in the room.

Johnny settled into the bed next to Wendie and turned the TV to a basketball game that was playing his favorite team, Suns vs. Rockets.

Chapter 14

The next morning, Wendie felt sick to her stomach and ran to the bathroom to vomit, which woke Johnny up.

“Babe, are you okay?”

A few minutes later,

“I’m fine, honey! Just a little sick to my stomach!” Wendie told a concerned Johnny.

After Wendie came out, she looked ashen and pale.

“I think we should go to a doctor? You don’t look well?” Johnny told her.

“If you think it’s best.” Wendie agreed.

So after eating the cold dinner Johnny had gotten the night before, they headed to the car, where Johnny helped Wendie into the passenger seat before he got into the driver’s seat and drove Wendie to the hospital.

Johnny was putting a hole in the hospital waiting room floor waiting for word on Wendie.

After what seemed like hours, the doctors finally came out to tell Johnny he could visit Wendie in her room.

“Mr. Carson?” the doctor said to a frantic Johnny.

“How is she?” Johnny asked the doctor.

“She’s fine. We’re keeping her overnight for observation and running a few tests after the rape.” The doctor told Johnny.

“Rape? You don’t think…” Johnny asked thinking the doctor suspected him.

“Relax, Mr. Carson. Ms. Carberry told us it wasn’t you.” the doctor told a relieved Johnny. “She is resting in her room.”

Johnny went up to Wendie’s room to find her resting comfortably in her hospital bed just as the doctor said.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Johnny pulled up a chair beside Wendi’s hospital bed and sat down, waiting for her to wake up.

Wendie was in a deep sleep dreaming of Dick, her online stalker….

“Wendie, my love, I’m coming for you.” she heard him say.

Johnny heard Wendie mumble in her sleep, “Stay away from me.”

Wendie feared for her life as Dick inched toward her.

She woke with a scream as Johnny tried to put his arms around her to comfort her but she pushed him away.

When she saw that it was Johnny, she apologized to him and the two kissed.

They were interrupted when the nurse came in to give Wendie the results of the tests she was given.

“Is anything wrong, nurse?” Wendie asked, as she held Johnny’s hand for strength.

“Everything appears fine…” the nurse began. “With one exception.”

“What exception?” Wendie asked, bracing for bad news.

“Just that you’re pregnant.” The nurse told a shocked Wendie, knowing for sure who the father was.

“I can’t be pregnant?!” Wendie denied it vehemently, not wanting to bring her stalker’s child into the world.

Meanwhile, an unseen figure walked away from the door of Wendie’s hospital room…….

Chapter 15

Dick was surprised to learn that Wendie was pregnant with his child. He knew now that he need to get Johnny out of Wendie's life once and for all. No man was going to be a father to his child!

Meanwhile, Wendie was reeling from the revelation of being pregnant with Dick's child.

“Penny for your thoughts?” Johnny said as he gently touched Wendie's shoulder.

“I'm going to get an abortion.” Wendie said matter-of-factly.

“Are you sure?”

“I just can't be a mother to this child!”

“I understand.” Johnny said, unable to change Wendie's mind.

But Wendie's decision to have an abortion was the last thing on she had to worry about when a masked intruder suddenly barged into their apartment and knocked out Wendie and got into a scuffle that left Johnny bleeding from a stab wound.

The intruder left Johnny to die on the living room floor and took an unconscious Wendie with him to an undisclosed location.
