“No, James is all right!” I exclaimed loudly.
The man looked at me questioningly and impatiently, apparently waiting for other explanations.
The bitter lump in my throat made it hard to breathe. I grabbed a hot cup of tea to take a life-saving sip. Raising the drink to my lips, the wide sleeves of the robe fell to my elbows, unwittingly exposing my wrists, which were... Oh, hell, bruised!
I slammed the cup down on the table, wanting to hide this horror as quickly as possible, but it was too late. He noticed.
“Who. Did. It?!” he caught my hand and literally growled in my face, pointing to the dark marks of clearly someone’s fingers on my fair skin.
I gasped when he squeezed my hand, just where the marks were. In a second, Henry loosened his strong grip, but he still didn’t let go of my hand.
I looked down and felt tears start to appear in my eyes, and I couldn’t hold them back.
“Damn, Mia… I'll find out anyway,” Henry swore, releasing me and standing up abruptly from the table. “Are you covering for some bastard?” I’ve never seen him so angry. “Mia!”
“You don’t understand... it is a relative of my friend,” I was afraid to look at the angry man’s eyes. “And he… he didn’t make anything. I ran away!”
Henry didn’t answer me. In an instant, he grabbed the car keys, and a couple of seconds later the front door slammed shut.
With a groan, I put my head in my hands, trying to figure out what had just happened. But I didn’t have time to think of anything. My phone screen suddenly lit up, notifying me of a new message.
Henry: “Go to bed. In my bedroom. And don’t try to get out of the apartment. If I find you after, it will be worse for you. Back soon.”
