"Let's see what you're really worth." He gripped her waist, his thrusts increasingly forceful and possessive.
He knew every inch of her. In the two years they'd been married, their intimate moments were rare, but each tleft him utterly bewitched, sometimes so much that he couldn't help but cback for more.
He couldn't deny his insatiable desire for her. He saw the flush of red on her face, and his grip turned even more domineering.
Afterward, he pulled away. Suddenly, he noticed the bed sheets beneath her stained red with blood.

The blood spread beneath her like a blooming poppy.
A sudden grip tightened around Casper's heart. This wasn't her period...
"Are you mute? Couldn't you tellit hurt?" Casper grabbed a blanket, wrapped up Eliza, and carried her downstairs. Her body was burning hot, her complexion pale and bloodless.
"Driver, get the car." On the way to the hospital, Casper called Aaron, asking him to meet them there.
The moment he arrived at the hospital, he rushed Eliza straight to the emergency room.
"What's the situation?" Aaron reached out to take her, but Casper dodged him. He carried her directly into the emergency treatment room.
Aaron didn't take offense, and after explaining the situation to the doctors, he waited outside with Casper. Casper pulled out a cigarette, attempting to light it several times unsuccessfully.
"Smoking is prohibited in the hospital. Just bear with it," Aaron said.
Casper angrily threw the cigarette and lighter into the trash, rubbing his hands through his thick hair.

A nurse cout midway to speak with Aaron, handed him a form, then went back inside.
Aaron handed the form to Casper. "Sign here." "What is it?" He looked over with bloodshot eyes.
It was a surgical consent form.
Aaron sighed. "Eliza has a ruptured corpus luteum and needs surgery." He wasn't sure if Casper did it on purpose or if Eliza was just too fragile to withstand a grown man's strength. These private matters were not his to pry too much into.
"You got here in time, so there shouldn't be any danger to her life." Casper's Adam's apple bobbed as he took Aaron's pen, his hand trembling as he signed his name.
Aaron took the consent form Casper signed and stood up to give it to the nurse.
When Eliza woke up, the room was stark white. Her vacant gaze fixed on the ceiling for a long, long time.
