The Abusive Man

Chapter 1: The Perfect Beginning

I never thought I would fall so deeply in love. When I first met Liam, he was everything I had ever dreamed of-charming, confident, and intoxicatingly handsome. He had this way of looking at me, like I was the only girl in the world, and when he spoke, his words wrapped around my heart like a warm embrace.

We met at a coffee shop on a rainy afternoon. I had just finished a long day at work, and he had offered me his table when he saw me struggling to find a seat. That simple act of kindness was enough to start a conversation. He had a way of making me laugh so effortlessly, and by the end of that conversation, I was already drawn to him.

Our love story started like a fairytale. Liam was the kind of man who knew how to make a woman feel special. He sent me good morning texts, surprised me with flowers, and took me on spontaneous late-night drives where we'd talk for hours. He made me feel wanted, adored. It wasn't long before I fell hard.
