Once and For All

Torrance's POV

Nick came down stairs after a little bit, he comes over to me and grabs my hands, pulling me up into his arms. His hand stroked my hair and down my back. "You did what had to be done, Torr." I looked into his eyes, tears streaking down my cheeks. "He..killed himself." I buried my face in his chest, putting my arms around him with a huge sigh of relief.

He held me tighter. "The best move he has ever made." He pulled back and wiped my tears away. "We need to get rid of him. Can't just leave him in the basement, Love."

"I know, what are we suppose to do with him?" I looked up at him.

"Wrap him up and sink him somewhere...Some place deep."

I nodded. "That always works." I swallowed the lump in my throat. "Guess we better get doing that soon, huh?"

"The sooner the better but if you need to take some time first....." His voice trailed off as he looked at me. I shook my head. "No, I'd rather get him out of here as soon as possible." He starts gathering up things they need, tarps and what not, he wrapped the body in the tarps. "We can apparate him somewhere and sink him." He held his hand out for me to take*

After taking his hand and holding on tight, she says "Ok, baby. I'm ready when you are."

He apparates them to a coast line somewhere in southwest England, it’s all rocky and stuff. He finds a boat tied to a pier and puts the body in there, helping me in too, we start to row out, it’s really windy and it’s helping to push us along faster. When we get out far enough Nick ties cement blocks to Parkers feet and then dumps him over the side.

I sat there watching Parker sink, then looked at Nick. "I can't believe he's actually gone." Nick pulled Parker's wand from his pocket where he stashed it and dropped it into the water too. "He can't hurt anyone anymore, baby."

I smiled. "I know. I'm finally free to move on with my life."

"Take my hand...and we can start moving on right now." He held his hand out to me again.

I took his hand and smiled, staring into his eyes. He kissed me softly and apparated us back to his house. I wrapped my arms around his neck as we landed in his living room, continuing to kiss him.

"Stay with me tonight?" His lips moved against my mouth.

“Mmm, yes.” I whispered against his lips as I played with the hair at the nape of his neck while kissing him. He picked me up and carried me upstairs, my legs wrapped around his waist. He laid me down on the bed kissing down my neck. “Wait, Nick. Stop.” All that ran through my mind was what Parker had done to me. “I can’t…not tonight.” He sighed and rolled off of me. “Do you still want to stay with me then?”

I nodded, “Of course, that’s not the reason I wanted to stay. I want to stay because I love you.” He wrapped his arms around me and held me tight, we laid there and snuggled chatting a little but not saying much. I hadn’t felt this free in over a year. Since I was with Nick last. We held onto each other until we fell asleep and all through the night.

Vengence

Torrance's POV

Nick walks down the stairs to the basement, holding my hand as he goes. We saw Parker tied with magical ropes to a steel pillar. He's sitting on the concrete floor. Nick walks up to him, pulls his wand and points it at his head* "How does it feel to have the tables turned, Parker? How does it feel to not know if you're going to see another day?" Parker looked up at him horrified. "What the hell are you talking about, Nick? You don't have the guts! Never have." He laughed. Nick flicked his wand sending the Cruciatus curse at Parker, making him writhe in pain. I stood there watching Parker, wincing slightly when he cried out. I never did like seeing anyone in pain, not even Parker. But I would deal with it just to see him suffer for what he done to me. My legs were stinging from standing on them so long, the whip marks still very raw.

Nick released the curse. "Don't ever assume I won't end you. It wouldn't bother me one bit to wipe you off this earth." He stil had his wand pointed at Parker. "First, I think you have some apologizing to do." Nick looked over at me letting Parker know what he meant. Hopefully Parker won't be stupid enough to try anything insane or say something that will cause him even more pain. I rolled my eyes at the thought. Of course, he would. He always does. He's to self absorbed not to.

He looked up at me. "For what? The bitch deserved what she got for teasing me all these years!" Nick cursed him again, this time for longer. I watched all of this, my eyes going wide. I said nothing. It was actually relieving that he was suffering. Where did this side of me come from? I've never felt that way.

Nick continued cursing him, not letting up...actually making Parker hurt more. I continued to watch beginning to shake from hate and anger but also knowing Parker deserves what he's getting and much much more.

Nick finally stopped. "The next words out of your mouth better be 'I'm sorry'."

Parker caught his breath and looked at me. "Sorry."

Nick cursed him again, briefly. "Say it like you mean it!" His voice was still calm, it was almost eerie. "Alright, alright! I'm sorry, Torrance." Parker was looking right at me. I hated it when he done that. It made me feel so small and worthless.

Nick crouched down next to Parker, their faces inches apart. "You're going to die today. Do you understand?" A look of horror crossed Parker's face. "You're mental, Nick!"

"You are pure evil. There isn't any good left inside your worthless body. You do nothing but hurt others.....and that stops today." His voice was calm and low making me shiver. "See I told you, you're fucking crazy Nick! You don't have it in you to kill anybody!" Nick was quiet for a moment like he was thinking, he tilted his head to the side slightly. "Oh...I'd kill you in a heartbeat." He stood up, taking my hand and leading me closer to where Parker is slumped over. "But I wasn't the one you continually hurt...over....and over......and over again." His voice was more harsh. His face calmed some and he looked at me. "Do you want him dead?"

I debated a moment then nodded. "Yes, I want him dead, gone, out of my life for good. You're finished Parker. You've hurt me one to many times." I hate Parker. I am still shocked I said that but would never take it back.

Nick looked back at Parker. "Time to make your peace with whatever God you believe in, Parker." He raised his wand to Parker's head, his hand steady, his face calm. He had this lingering darkness to his eyes. It was then I knew how much he hated Parker for what he has done to us...me. Something in me was shouting at me not to let Nick kill him, that I needed to. God would I be able to? That same feeling was telling me yes. So I spoke up. "Wait....I want to do it!" I said calmly staring right at Parker, my eyes filled with pure hatred.

Nick looked over at me, surprise evident in his eyes. "Can you?" I looked at Nick without hesitation I said. "Yes, I want to be the one to do it after what he done to me." Nick nodded and put his wand down. "Would you like to do it alone?"

"Yes." I continue to stare straight at Parker, my body filled with hate and afraid if I look away I might change my mind. Nick looked back at Parker one last time before walking out of the basement, shutting the door behind him.

I looked up at the door then back to Parker, pointing his own wand at his head. "Your time is done! AVADA KED..." Parker interrupted me. "Come on, Torrance. You don't want to kill me. Give me my wand and I'll do it for you. I don't deserve to live." I shook my head. "No, Parker. You'll trick me again." He sighed. "I knew you would say that. I just don't want you to carry this on your shoulders for the rest of your lives. Just give me my wand and I'll do it quickly." I stood there debating on it. I mean what could possibly happen? It's not like he could get away, right? "I'm not sure about that." He sat there silent staring me in the eyes. He was doing it again. He was persuading me with his gaze. It always worked. Shit. I quickly looked away then back again. "Here." I handed him his wand and stepped back looking at him.

He took his wand and he pointed it at his head and said a silent spell then slumped over not breathing. I gasped and backed away from him, against the wall. I was shaking and tears ran down my face as I slid down the wall looking at Parker's dead form. I pulled my legs up to my chest wrapping my arms around them, just staring.

When Things Go Bad Part 5

Torrance's POV

I was sitting on the bed where Parker had threw me after his last attempt to make me sleep with him. Waiting until he was out of the room, I grabbed my pants off the floor I had just remembered my cell was in them, I took it out texting. "Help me!" to Nick. I glance around waiting on him to text me back or something, hoping Parker doesn't come in. I pulled my shirt together and pull my legs up to my chest staring at the screen of my phone.

Text from Nick: Where are you?!

Text to Nick: Parkers, he kidnapped me. Hurry.

Nick apparates to the front door, kicking it down. Parker had just came back in the room catching me with my cell. He pins me to the bed and pulls his pants down when she hears the bang downstairs, he ignores it. He tried to hold me still as he ripped one side of my panties, making me squeal. Nick rushes into the room, sending a spell at Parker's back making him fly off of me and makes him hit the wall across the room hard. He came over to me. "Jesus....are you ok?" He looks me over.

I started crying and shaking my head. "He's had me here for 3 days." I put my arms around him. "I fell for his tricks again. I'm sorry." Nick sent another hex at Parker, making him fall back to the ground just as he tried to get up. "I'm gonna get you out of here. Then I'm coming back for him." He grabbed my clothes and picks me up, carrying me like a baby and apparates me to his new house, putting me on the couch. I had wrapped my arms around his neck. I didn't want to let him go. "I'll be right back." He kissed me on the forehead and apparated away. I knew where he was going and it worried me. Parker was capable of much more than I had orginally thought. I laid on the couch, huddling into myself like I did when Nick left a year ago, sobbing.

Nick apparates back, with Parker who is unconscious. He drags him down to the basement. I looked up then laid back down wondering what Nick was doing with Parker.

Nick came back upstairs, sitting on the couch with me, wiping my tears sweetly. "I've got him tied downstairs. He's still unconscious for now but when he wakes up........." His voice trails off for a second. "...You might not want to be here. It's not going to be pretty but I'll leave the choice up to you."

"I..I don't want to be alone right now, Nick. I'm scared and he almost raped me." I sat up and leaned against him crying. He wrapped his arms around me tightly, holding me to him. "After today, he wont touch you again. I promise." It felt so good to have him hold me again. "I'm sorry I got you into this, Nick." I put my arms around him. "I should have hexed him and went with my guts. I knew something wasn't right."

"It's ok. You try see the best in people, Torrance but sometimes there just isn't any. Parker is evil."

"He is. I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't come." I looked up at him and he kissed me softly. "I'm here for you. Ok?"

"Thank you, Nick." I reached up and kissed him again, as I pulled back I heard something in the basement, Nick looked at me seriously. "Do you want to leave? Or stay?"

"I'm not going anywhere." I sat up and looked at him. "Nothing that happens could bother me. I hate him, Nick. I want him to suffer for what he's done to me, us, everyone." Nick nodded, taking my hand, he leads me down stairs....

When Things Go Bad Part 4

Parker's POV

I had to spend the rest of the day downstairs to keep from really hurting her. I was having a hard time controlling my anger around her. Everything she had ever said to me kept rolling through my mind.

I sat in my chair getting drunker and drunker as the time passed by. I had already had her here for 2 days, going on day 3 and I still haven't been able to get her to sleep with me. I was trying to come up with a plan so I wouldn't have to take it from her, although it didn't look like that was going to happen.

Torrance's POV

I woke up the morning of the third day. My face hurt, my legs hurt, and I had to figure out a way to get away from Parker. I was exhausted and it was getting harder and harder to fight off Parker. I began wondering where Nick was and if he noticed I was gone for 3 days even though he wasn't home for 2 of those days.

I laid on the bed thinking and in pain from the torture my body has endured over the past 3 days. There had to be a way out of here.

I slowly got out of bed and tried to open the window but the damn thing wouldn't budge. His spells were always strong. I sighed and went to the door, still couldn't get free.

I did not do good being locked in somewhere, unable to get out if I wanted. I had to sit on the edge of the bed and put my head between my knees. I was starting to panic, which wouldn't be good in my situation.

When Things Go Bad Part 3

Torrance's POV

I went to move and couldn't, once more I was tied to the chair. I must have really been out of it. When I opened my eyes I couldn't see anything. It was dark in the room. Parker had turned off all the lights and covered the window. I gasped as the fear sunk in.

I heard him moving around behind me. He eased his hands down my chest, cupping my breasts and pinching my nipples. I wiggled trying to get away from him. I would not give into him no matter what, I promised myself. "Get off of me you filthy animal!" I screamed at him. "I really wish you wouldn't have said that. You could have been a good girl and kept your mouth shut." I felt something slap hard against the top of my legs. "What the fuck are you doing, Parker? You're insane!"

I felt it again, jerking a little this time. "Stop that, now."

He just laughed. "You should have just sat there quietly, Torrance." He slapped me with the object again. Then he walked over and turned the light on letting me see the whip in his hand and his naked body. I closed my eyes trying to keep Nick's face in my mind. That's the only thing that kept me fighting at that moment.

When Parker realized what I was doing he hit me hard with the whip, I felt whelps rise with that one and the next few hits. He drop it to the floor then slapped me hard busting my lip. "You fucking bastard." I didn't care if he made my whole body bleed. I would not sleep with him willingly. "I fucking hate you!"

He cringed when I said that. "Oh, doesn't big bad Parker like hearing that the woman he can't have hates him?" I asked in my sweet voice. He back handed me. "How dare you mimick me." He shouted, right in my face. He stood up and walked to the door turning the lights off again and walking out leaving me to cry to myself, my head hanging and unable to go anywhere.

When Things Go Bad Part 2

Parker's POV

I sat in my leather chair drinking scotch and staring at a picture of Torrance, trying to decide how to go about doing things. I knew she wasn't going to give in easily. I sighed and kept drinking. Things were starting to get fuzzy.

I got up and refilled my glass before ascending the stairs, stumbling down the hall to the bedroom I had her in. She was going to give it up or I was going to take it. I finally made it to the bedroom door and slung it open, making her head snap up when it hit the wall. "Miss me, baby?" A slow smirk crossed my lips. I saw the fear in her eyes, making me want her even more.

"That's right, baby. Show me that fear, you know what it does to me." I growled as I made my way to her, leaning right in and kissing her hard on the mouth. "You ready to have fun?" More fear seeped into those beautiful sexy eyes of hers. "Go to hell, Parker!" She screamed and spit in my face.

I narrowed my eyes and backhanded her. "You little bitch! How dare you!"

Torrance's POV

I was terrified, especially for my life. I was sure he would end up killing me in the end.

No matter what I was not going to give up fighting him. I would never have sex with anyone except, Nick. "Stay away from me, Parker." I gritted my teeth against the pain in my face where he hit me.

He began shaking his head. "No way, beautiful." Anger shot through me. "NO ONE calls me that besides NICK, damn you." He untied me, threw me on the bed, ripping my shirt and biting my breast, breaking the skin and making me scream. I began kicking and screaming, catching him between the legs and taking him to his knees. "You fucking bitch!" He squeaked, as I laughed. It was to funny not to, even though I knew he would hurt me for doing it.

I slowly creeped away across the bed and was almost to the door when he jerked me back by the hair and slammed me into the wall, putting a sealing charm on the window and walking out the door slamming it shut and locking it magically, leaving me no escape route. I started crying and crawled to the bed in severe pain, curling up in my protective ball. I laid there for hours until I finally cried myself to sleep.
