My heart catches in my throat, and my eyes go wide. Perhaps it is because I've never felt so meek, so small and cowed - knowing I've done wrong - but she appears huger than ever to me. Though we're in the semi-darkness, with the only light coming from the bathroom, I can see she's bristling with strength and power, and looks ready to burst out of her dress. At the same time she's decided to stay in her high heels, perhaps to make herself look even larger to me. Though I'd walked a few steps into the room, I take one step backwards when she appears, even before I speak. And when I do speak, it is with the same small, weak voice - and obviously full of fear.
"I-I-I..." I swallow dryly, as her eyes narrow even before I say anything. "I...h-had to take a-a walk..." I start, putting my hands up in reflex as she takes another step towards me. This is my wife, I love her...but I can't help it, my instincts take over. She seems dangerous, and I am so, so small... "I'm...I'm sorry....I, I should h-have told someone..."
I take another step back as she advances, and hear the door slam behind me. I spin, to see a tentacle-like arm of the fur wall retreating back into itself, having just shut the door, under her command. I'm trapped, and in response my anxiety ratchets up again, quickly approaching panic. I turn back to her: her expression has not changed. She peers down at me with set jaw and narrowed eyes. I can see she's been crying; her mascara has run down her cheeks.
Despite myself, amidst all this fear and foreboding, I feel myself begin to harden in her presence.
"I...I lost track of t-time," I continue, "I'm so sorry..."
Just then, I feel fur tendrils at my back, creeping up my-
<<RIP>>
My shirt is torn off me, from behind. My hands go to cover my chest, and I hunch down, in fear. I look up at her, a plea for mercy in my eyes as she steps again towards me.
"Please, Milenka..." I say, "calm down. I...I just needed to get out...away..."
