Hoping Hell Hath No Fury
by michaelcahill
Hell can't be worse ... can it?
The author has placed a warning on this post for violence.
The healing terrifies me more than the inflicting of the wounds. The healing reminds me of what is to come … the rats, starving and finding nothing to eat but my naked flesh. I never come close to death only wishing for it. Within an hour, there are enough wounds to satisfy my captor. Then, about a month to heal. Month after month.
I cheated on my wife. Yes, I'm a weak man. She knew of my fear of rats. She loved to remind me that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
Yep, I am hoping that is true.

I always laugh when I hear that phrase, "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned". Considering their "fury", I am hoping that is true for the poor souls who end up there. :)
