“They punched her in the face,” I continue, unable to stop myself now that I’ve started. Like a bottle of uncorked champagne the words froth and fizz, tumbling from my lips in angry little bursts. “They dragged her from the room by her fucking hair, but not before they groped at her breasts and punched her in the face.

“Don’t beg Him, He doesn’t listen to sinners.
That night we sowed the seeds of our love with another kind of magic, the kind that formed a life deep within my belly.
