"I hate you!" she screamed as tears rolled down her cheeks.
"I'm sorry baby..." he said softly, as if trying to coax a scared animal. It infuriated her all the more; this smug little prick was once again belittling her!
"Tell me something, do my thoughts or my feelings mean nothing to you, or am I really just someone for you to fuck?" she asked, her voice now menacingly sweet.
"Love, come on, don't be like that...you know I care about what you feel. It's just that I think you're using this as an excuse to not face up to things. Would I have married you, if I didn't love you?" he asked her, his voice still calm, his gaze still reassuring.
Melissa was fuming, she just looked at him, and a wave of disgust welled up in her.
"You son of a bitch, you smug son of a bitch! So, the way I am, the person that I am, is nothing more than something for you to improve, to meet your high standards?" she could feel the rage building up. For once, she'd like to hurt him, to really get him where it hurts. Melissa stalked over to her husband, who was reclining on the sofa.
"Oh, and one more thing, you didn't marry me because you love me, we got married because I was pregnant. Don't confuse matters." She watched as the understanding dawned in his eyes, the way the hurt came right to the surface, before he abruptly banked the pain.
"Fuck you, Melissa." Was all he was capable of saying.
Melissa should have seen the thin ice she was walking on, but she was on a roll. She needed to vent.
"Yeah, well maybe you should Derek," she shot back at him and made to walk away.
His hand snaked out and grabbed her upper arm, spinning her back round to him. Pulled taut against his body, she was made aware of how small she was. His large hand held the back of her head, as he crushed his lips to hers, and tried to force a response from her.
Melissa responded, taking his lip into her mouth, gently and sweetly, before biting down hard, tasting the explosion of blood in her mouth. He reared back instinctively. She just looked at him coldly.
So much pain, so much anger was reflected in her eyes. "God, she looks hot!" Derek thought to himself.
He lowered his head again, lip still slightly bleeding, he kissed her again. But she refused to respond. It was as infuriating as it was arousing.
"Damn it, Melissa, I want you, can't you see that?" he whispered, pressing his throbbing dick against her midsection. But Melissa merely looked away. It was as if she didn't care.
"Don't fuck with me, Melissa. Don't behave as if you don't want me, or this" - he grabbed her ass, and pulled her firmly against himself -"I know what you say in the throws of passion, I know how you scream, all the nasty things you want. How you beg for me...don't behave as if you don't want me as much as I want you."
"Oh I know Derek, but you know what? You just aren't worth it anymore. I say those things to convince myself that you're worth it. That you're a decent fuck, not because I mean it." She pushed him away, as if suddenly repulsed by him. Melissa turned away, and folded her arms.
Derek saw red.
Viciously, he pulled her back to him, and slapped her. It stung. Melissa responded, her hands like claws, and made to scratch his eyes out. He grabbed her wrists, and restrained her, adding to her frustration. Melissa kicked savagely, nearly getting him between the legs. In response, he turned her around, and pulled her against him, crossing his arms over her front, and locking hers at her side.
"Mmm...You're beautiful when you're angry..." he whispered softly. She just elbowed him, and tried to bite his arm.
He reached for her waist, and tossed her over his broad shoulder, and walked to the bedroom, Melissa screaming and kicking the whole way. She didn't want this! She didn't want to...she didn't want to want him.
He tossed her onto the bed, unceremoniously and lay on top of her. It seemed the only effective way to restrain her.
"Get off me you oaf! You're killing me..."
"Well, at least that makes something we can agree on" he smiled, and reached for his ties in the bedside drawer.
"You my love," he continued, "have a very sharp tongue," as he gagged her with the first tie. Her look spoke volumes.
Slowly, Derek tied up his lovely, and fuming, wife. He tied her left wrist to her left ankle, and her right wrist to her other ankle. Leaving her with her legs drawn up, and her body exposed.
He got up and walked out of the room, surprised and slightly scared, Melissa attempted to scream through the gag, not that it did much good.
