Angel was screwing Drusilla.
Angel was screwing his step-mother.
Angel was screwing his father’s wife.
No matter how many different ways Elizabeth thought about the situation in front of her, she still couldn’t grasp it. She had always thought that their relationship was a little strange but she never would have guessed that they were this close. For some reason, Elizabeth just knew that this wasn’t their first tryst. And the worst part was that neither one of them looked guilty. It was almost as if they’d been waiting for her to come home just so they could flaunt their affair in her face.
“How was your day, honey?” Angel asked, as if he wasn’t still pounding Drusilla into the mattress. Said mattress banged against the wall with loud bangs.
“Oh my God,” Elizabeth just backed up from the pair and collided with the wall behind her. She closed her eyes a few times to get rid of the images in front of her but it was no use. They were still going at it like weasels. It seemed liked they were enjoying it even more with her presence. Elizabeth felt sick for watching but at the same time, she couldn’t turn away.
Angel had never been that way with her when they made love. Correction: When Angel had his fun with her for about fifteen minutes and then fell asleep or left the apartment completely. Not even when they had first began their relationship had Angel been so attentive or passionate. He’d never really seemed like he was into being with her intimately. He made it seem like it was some kind of chore.
Despite how overwhelming it was, the one thing Elizabeth didn’t feel was pain. It wasn’t that she didn’t feel betrayed, but she didn’t feel like her whole world was ending because her husband was cheating on her. If anything, it made her realize now more than ever that she didn’t love him any more. Abusive or not, there had always been a small part of Elizabeth that had loved Angel. Now she felt nothing for him. She didn’t even hate him.
A loud keening wail from Drusilla brought Elizabeth out of her thoughts. She looked over just in time for her to see Angel shudder with his release. Later on she wouldn’t remember why but in that moment something broke in Elizabeth. Not caring that her tone or words would get her in serious trouble later, she crossed her arms over her chest and leaned against the door.
“Are you two finished?” she asked with a bored expression on her face. It was the first time in years that Elizabeth really felt like her old self. She bit back a smirk at brief look of surprise on Angel’s face. It was gone just as quickly as it appeared though and then it was back to his smug attitude.
“For now,” he smirked. Angel pulled out of Drusilla with a moan of protest and got out of the bed. Not caring about his nudity, he went over to the closet and pulled out some pants. Meanwhile, Drusilla just lounged on the bed in all her pale, naked glory. Elizabeth had never been more disgusted with anyone in her entire life.
“So you two are....an item now?” Elizabeth asked, using one hand to gesture between them. “How long has this been going on?”
“Does it really matter?” Angel returned, buckling his belt. Elizabeth thought about it for a minute then shook her head.
“No, it doesn’t. I was just...curious,” she returned with a casual shrug.
“You weren’t satisfying my Angel, sunshine. He asked me to tend to his needs.” Drusilla cut in. She gracefully got off the bed and put back on her clothes. She then went over to Angel and gave him a chaste kiss on his cheek, keeping her dark eyes on Elizabeth the entire time. Once upon a time, that little act would have flooded her veins with jealousy. Now, she didn’t feel a thing.
“See ya later on tonight, Dru. Maybe I’ll ask Darla to join us this time. You know how she loves group activities,” he said. Elizabeth didn’t even bat an eyelash. She had figured he was screwing the office slut too. That one didn’t surprise her one bit. The fact that Darla was into Drusilla as well was even less of a shock.
“Until we meet again, my Angel; it was nice seeing you again, Buffy.” Drusilla said politely before grabbing her coat and leaving.
Elizabeth openly glared at Angel while he moved around the room. She was fuming and knew that she wouldn’t be able to hold back with anything she was about to say. She may have been taking a huge risk but enough was enough.
“Not that I really care at this point but...why?” she asked, moving further into the room. “If this marriage is such an inconvenience to you, why didn’t you just ask for a divorce? Lord knows I would have gladly given you one.” Again, Angel gave her look of surprise. After all, Elizabeth hadn’t been that vocal since they first got together. It was throwing him for a loop. “Why cheat, Angel?”
Recovering quickly, Angel sighed dramatically and said, “It wouldn’t do well for my reputation if the media got wind of me cheating on my lovely wife with my father’s wife. My career would be ruined. You wouldn’t want that for your husband now, would you?”
“And Darla?” Elizabeth asked, ignoring his question. “What is she supposed to be?”
“A good fuck every once in while. Lord knows I need one seeing as you’re not up to par.” Angel shot back with a smirk, trying his hardest to hurt her. Unfortunately, Elizabeth didn’t even flinch. Not one to give up so quickly, he continued with a shrug. “Plus, she has a bit of a crush on Dru so it all works out nicely.”
“Are there others?”
Angel looked at her a long moment. This was the longest conversation the two of them had had without him yelling at her or knocking her around the apartment. He was probably trying to figure out where she managed to get the courage to speak to him in such a way. The moment passed and he finally answered her question.
“No. I couldn’t take the chance that they’d keep their mouths shut.”
Elizabeth surprised them both and let out an almost hysterical laugh. Angel looked at her like she was crazy but didn’t back down from his overbearing stance. She took in a few gulps of air in between her giggles and continued.
“You really don’t love me anymore do you?” she asked. “A person couldn’t do the things you’ve done to me and still love,” she finished with a bitter chuckle.
Angel rolled his eyes and let out a dark laugh of his own. He slowly advanced on her in a way that used to scare her shitless. For some reason, it only fueled her anger.
“You always were a romantic,” he scoffed while get personal with Elizabeth’s personal space. “This has nothing to do with love, Buff; it’s about power.”
“Meaning?” she bit out in between clenched teeth. Angel grinned and leaned in and brought his voice down to a husky whisper.
“I own you. Plain and simple. I could do anything I want with you and no one would care,” Angel paused long enough to slowly run his hand down her cleavage. “I’ve got everyone in this town wrapped around my finger and as long as I keep winning cases and making the big guns look good, I can do whatever the hell I want, with whoever the hell I want. And that includes you, babe.”
Elizabeth suppressed a grin at how soon he’d be losing that particular luxury. Soon, she’d no longer be around for him to harass.
Angel looked at her thoughtfully for moment before giving her one of his charming smiles, a smile that use to give her butterflies and make her weak in the knees. Now it just made her want to heave.
“You know, you should really consider coming with me tonight. I’m sure the girls wouldn’t mind a newcomer. We’d have such a good time breaking you in,” he finished with a light caress of the underside of her breast.
Elizabeth really had no control of her mouth at this point. She couldn’t stop her response even if she wanted to. The look of shock on Angel’s face had been worth it anyway.
“You disgust me,” she spat. And to add icing on the cake, she shoved him back but not before finishing with, “Have fun with your whores.”
Heading towards the front door, Elizabeth’s brain was screaming in frustration and a whole lot of fear.
*Fred said act natural! That was so not natural! What the hell were you thinking? You better get out of here before he comes to his senses!*
The front door was halfway opened when a big, meaty hand practically came out of no where and slammed it shut. Elizabeth let out a yelp and turned around to face a surprisingly calm Angel.
*Too late!*
“That wasn’t very nice, Buff,” he said, caging her between him and the door. Elizabeth went in full defense mode and tried to move away from him, only to have him grab both arms in vice-like grips.
“Let go of me. Now.” Elizabeth growled. She didn’t know where this sudden act of bravery came from but now that it was out in the open, she wasn’t backing down. If this was it, she was going to go down fighting.
“Or you’ll do what?” Angel taunted with sneer. With a burst of strength she didn’t know she had, Elizabeth got one of her arms free and delivered a well placed blow to Angel’s left cheek.
If a pin dropped in that moment, it would startle them both. Angel slowly turned his face back to Elizabeth and she couldn’t help but gulp at the look of unadulterated fury in his eyes. He’d never looked at her with such rage before. Grabbing her by the hair, he threw her down on the floor a few feet away. Landing with a painful thud, Elizabeth’s hands were the only thing that saved her from getting a mouth full of carpet.
“You seemed to have grown a spine while you were out today,” Angel said conversationally. Elizabeth didn’t even bother looking back. Instead she crawled towards the bedroom in a vain attempt to get away and protect herself. Angel was too quick for her though. He bent down to grab her ankle and pulled her back towards him.
“No!” Elizabeth screamed, pulling at the carpet with each tug.
“I think it’s time for Daddy to put you back in your place,” he continued as he tuned her over on her back and quickly mounted her. Elizabeth’s heart dropped into her stomach when she saw the crazed look in Angel’s eyes.
“Angel, no!!! No!” Elizabeth screamed, scratching at any part of him she could reach before Angel finally got the upper hand and pinned her arms to the floor with one hand.
He used the other one to unbuckle his pants....and pulled up her skit.
“Angel, you’re hurting me!!”
“Oh, baby, I haven’t even started yet,” Angel smirked evilly before crushing his mouth to hers in a brutal kiss.
Elizabeth couldn’t believe that this was happening. Angel had her pinned down on their living room floor and was trying to...force himself on her. She would have much preferred a beating over this! Death was better than this!!
Angel managed to rip her underwear clean off her body before positioning himself at her entrance. Unfortunately for him, Angel made the mistake of shoving his tongue in her mouth during their brutal kiss. Elizabeth seized the opportunity and bit down on the appendage. Hard.
“Arrrgggg!!” he screamed, instantly releasing her hands and raising up away from her.
Not caring about the blood dripping from her chin, Elizabeth acted quickly and rammed her knee into his groin. Angel fell to the side of her with a pitiful groan. Not wasting any time, Elizabeth got up to her feet and ran for the door. She didn’t look back once as she opened the one thing keeping her from safety. Once it was opened, she sprinted for the stairs leading to the alley, not wanting to risk Angel cutting her off if she used the elevator. At this point, Elizabeth had idea where she was going. She only had one thought running through her head.
Run.

A/N So I chickened out on the rape scene! It’s so hard for me to read stuff like that so I knew writing it would be twice as difficult. This chapter was still very hard to write, so I’d appreciate some feedback!
Some readers were wondering if I had posted this story on another site. I had originally started this story about six months ago under a different title and wasn’t all that pleased with it. That’s probably why it looks so familiar to some people. I took the story down, edited it a bit, before reposting it under a new title. I hope that clears up everyone’s confusion.
Anyway, please leave a review! I’d really like to know how you think I did with this chapter.

Author's Chapter Notes:
I just want to thank all the people who have read and/or reviewed this story. I know that the content of the story is hard to read through right now but I can promise you that things will get better. You’ll just have to stick with me for a little while longer. With being said, please read this chapter with caution. It was really hard for me to write this so I know it’s going to be hard for you to read. I’d say enjoy the update but I don’t think that’s possible with this particular chapter.
