Chapter Six

Run:

As he pulled her towards him Jame’s hand slid to her side capturing her waist. His other hand, holding her wrist, grasped her hand harder. He turned her hand, bending it downwards, and brought it towards him. Alice let out a small gasp as she felt something hard beneath her hand. James pinned her hand against his hard member. Alice tried yanking her hand away from James' pelvis. James growled as she struggled against him. The more she tried to pull away the more she pressed against him. She could feel him underneath her hand. She began to hit him with her free hand trying to step and pull back away from her. James' hold on her was too strong. Her closed fist blows to his chest weren't even phasing him. 

“Yeah you feel that. You’ll be feeling that in you soon.” James whispered a sick smile on his face as he moved her hand against it, forcing her to rub him, a groan escaping his lips as it happened. 

Alice grabbed a hold of him and began to squeeze his member hoping that she would cause him some type of pain and he would let go of her. He groaned as she applied pressure. She tried to dig her nails into him and he realized what she was doing. He used his foot and kicked her leg out from under her. Alice fell backwards onto the ground. Alice’s head bounced off the forest ground, her teeth clashing together from the impact. Her head colluding with the ground made her vision blur for a second. She told herself not to black out. She fought hard to get her vision back. She tried to get up quickly but James was already on top of her. His hands pawed at her pulling at her clothing. She heard her shirt ripped as he began to split it up the middle. She grabbed a hold of her shirt trying to stop it from ripping further. James slapped her brand on her arm and she let out a scream, her hands instantly letting go of her shirt, her hand instinctively going to her hurt arm. She heard her shirt split more. 

“James! No! Get off of me!” Alice struggled; she began hitting him as hard as she could, he was barely flinching.

“Shut the fuck up Alice! I’m taking what's mine. Years of watching you flaunt it around me.” James growled as he ripped her shirt up past her belly button. He groaned excitedly seeing the underwire of her bra.

“Years of just being out of reach. Dropping things, bending over. Like you didn't know what you were doing. This is mine. This belongs to me before your mate.” He said ripping the rest of her shirt off, exposing her breast. 

“James! Stop!” Alice screamed trying to cover herself; James captured her hand and pinned them in his one hand above her hand, as he stared down at her. 

As her shirt ripped off,  her breast flopped outwards, James froze, mesmerized by them a soft groan escaping him as they stared back at him plump and full. He felt his manhood pulseate under his now too constricting pants. He reached out quickly, learning over her to cup in his hands. They felt as he had always imagined full and plumped. He squeezed hard on the as Alice tried to move away from his grasp.

“Please.” Alice gave into begging, maybe she could reach an ounce of humanity in him and she would be able to reason with him.

“Mmm. You're going to be saying that a whole lot more in a minute.” James said leaning his face forward, he wanted to taste them. 

No, she wasn't going to allow this to happen. His face was inches from her breast when she brought her knee up slamming into his hard member. James sucked in air a small scream escaping him. Alice shoved him off of her as he grabbed his pelvis.

“You fucking bitch. I’m going to fucking kill you.” James yelled as he rolled around on the ground. 

Alice got up quickly to her feet. She went to run off but then stopped. She was afraid he would get up soon and follow after her. She walked over to him and pulled her leg back and kicked her as hard as she could into his stomach. She heard the air get knocked out of him. His eyes bulged as he tried to suck air back into his lungs. She didn't even look back as she started to run. She took off running as fast as she could. The adrenaline coursing through her made her legs move faster than she had ever ran before. The fabric from her shirt flapping out around her as ran. She tried to cover her breast but when she did she realized not moving her arms slowed her down. She couldn't risk James being close behind her. She let the shirt go and pushed herself to run even harder. Lenore fuelled her as she pushed under her skin giving her more strength to run harder and faster. 

She could see the house. She had never been so happy to see the house before. She raced toward it, her lungs burning in her chest, heart pounding. She climbed the steps to the porch, her foot catching a step causing her to almost fall forward. She couldn't let that happen, her hands caught the rail and in two steps her other hand found the door knob to the home. Grasping the gold door knob she threw open the door leading to the kitchen. 

She rushed into the kitchen breathing heavily. She didn't know if she wanted someone to be awake or if it was better for everyone to be asleep. Her eyes scanning the kitchen no one was up. James. She thought frantically, he would come back here. Everyone was asleep, if her stepmother was up he wouldn't try to pull anything further but she's out cold. Her eyes scanned the kitchen. She saw the knives sitting in the knife block and rushed to them. He wasn't going to touch her. She would make sure of that. She grabbed the biggest and most pointed one. She then bolted towards the laundry room. She knew he wouldn't go in there. 

She looked around the laundry room she needed to hide more. Just being in here didn't mean she was completely safe. She saw the closest in the corner. She didn't even know if James knew it existed and by just looking into the room you wouldn't see it. She  moved quickly towards it, pulling the door open and getting inside it. She shut the door and sank down to the floor. Shutting her eyes she focused on the noises in the house as she clutched the knife. 

He is not going to hurt us anymore. Alice said inside her mind.

You should have shifted and let me kill him Lenore answered back to her.

They would have killed us. Alice said her heart was racing so loud she could hear it in her ears. 

Not if we ran. Lenore said annoyed.

They would have hunted us down. Alice said back still focused on the noises in the house.

They-

Shhh Alice said to her as her ears picked up the sound of the kitchen door opening. 

Her stomach twisted inside of her as she begged silently for James not to find her. h=she recognized the sound of the kitchen door that led to the outside open. She squeezed her eyes shut tighter. Please don't find me. She thought as she heard the floorboards beginning to creak.

“Alice.” James whispered, angrily. 

 She gritted her teeth hearing him say her name. No. she thought.She heard more floor boards creaking. She could count them and know exactly how far he was in the kitchen. She listened to him begin searching.

“I know you're in here. Come out and it won't be so bad.” James whispered as he stood in front of the kitchen pantry door.

He waited several seconds. The weird click noise told her he pulled open the pantry door in a hurry. He thought she would have been in there. He was ready to drag her outside. She almost hid in there. She held her breath trying to slow down her heart, trying to control her stomach from making her sick. 

Don't look in here please dont look in here. She said to herself. 

She could hear his footsteps growing louder and louder. She didn't know what she was going to do if he found her. She was not going to let him rape her. She couldn't kill him. She had no clue what she was going to do if he found her. Maybe the knife would scare him off.

“Alice.” James whispered demanding her to come out.

She for once in her life wanted her step mother. If she was here James would be back to just being an asshole and not trying to have his way with her. She stopped breathing as she heard his footsteps enter the laundry room. He had taken three steps in and now was just waiting, listening. 

“I won't hurt you. Just come out.” James whispered, trying to see in the darkness, he took another step in walking over to the dryer. 

She wasn't going to move, make a sound or even breathe while he was there. She was not getting caught. She heard him open the dryer door, she hadn't even thought about hiding in there.

“Fuck.” She heard him mutter to himself as he slammed the dryer door. 

She knew he was still in there, she could feel him. She had one hand over her mouth as if it would help her not make noises.After several seconds Alice heard the footsteps go back out of the room. She let out a small breath trying to be as quiet as possible.

“James? Are You awake?” A sleepy Sarah called from upstairs.

Oh thank god. Alice thought a shiver of relief sweeping over her, hearing her step mothers voice.

“Yes mom.” James said with his voice full of annoyance he was going to find Alice.

“Go to bed now! We don't need you looking tired tomorrow.” Sarah demanded.

“In a minute.” James answered by sounding more annoyed.

“Now.” Sarah growled.

Alice tried to listen for more noises and was suddenly relieved as she heard a set of footsteps walking up the stairs. She could tell by the way he was walking up the stairs he was furious. She then heard two steps go to the upper bedrooms. She felt relief as she leaned her head back against the closet wall. She moved herself into a better position, she held the knife tightly in her hand. She had decided she was going to spend the night here. In the morning Sarah would be up and about and she would be safe from James.
