The more I remained here in hiding and the more I was having the risk of soiling all my chances of escaping. After all, once bitten and twice shy they would say.
Staying with Lambert had really taught me lots of lessons especially with how he had treated me. He made it clear that I could never escape him and I realized only too late how true that actually was. He had me, wrapped around his finger with no source of escaping from him until I had managed to take the bull by the horns.
The bull.... baby!!! My baby!!!
What a mother I was going to make when I had not even given thought to the fact that I was pregnant and had just gone through a traumatic experience. I was not even certain if my child was okay and here I was thinking of a way to escape.
