SHAKIR RASHAAN Excerpt from Kianna lay on the concrete, her legs flailing about in an attempt to fend off her attacker. This stranger had lured her from the car stating that something was hanging from the rear, causing sparks and could be a danger. All a lie; one big lie and now she was forced to fight for a life that she now wanted more than anything else. The press had a field day, calling her his “trophy wife” in order to secure the vice-presidential nomination, but she didn’t pay those words any mind. Their life was what dreams were made of; their sex life was robust, their feelings for one another growing stronger every day. Their darker side blossomed in ways she couldn’t have possibly dreamed of. The way he took control of every aspect of her life and willingly surrendering with her submissive sister, Lea, made things even more interesting ... she dared say. Yes, her life was perfect. All images of that perfect life swirled away since the more she struggled, the more the stranger was able to get a stronger hold on her body. All types of thoughts about the reason this was happening ran through her mind; but one egregious act sprang to mind the moment the skirt rose above her hips. Oh my God, he’s going to rape me! Is he going to kill me?? I don’t want to die, not like this! She yelled as loudly as she could, punching at him while he dropped his forearm across her chest to pin her down. Unfortunately, her repeated attempts to yell for help were drowned out by the roaring engines on the highway. Her struggles only infuriated him as evidenced by the olive skin that had turned an ugly shade of crimson. This time, he made a few swift moves, evidently intending to subdue her in a different manner.
