The loud, desperate screams bouncing off the damp concrete walls did not make Roxy stop.
She did not blink. She did not hesitate. The sweet, scared girl who used to hide in the dark was completely gone, leaving only the fierce Matriarch in her place.
The ex-husband thrashed wildly against the thick steel chains, his eyes wide with absolute, blinding terror. But there was nowhere for him to go. He was completely trapped.
With one swift, violent motion, Roxy brought the heavy, sharp blade down.
She exacted her bloody, final revenge. She took away the very thing that made him feel like a big, tough man. She permanently and violently un-manned him, completely cutting off the source of his sick, twisted pride. She made absolutely sure that he would never, ever be able to use his body to hurt, scare, or force another woman into a corner ever again.
A terrible, glass-shattering scream ripped out of the ex-husband's throat.
