I changed their names. I shaped their minds. I was judge, jury, and executioner. No one could stop me. No one!To anyone looking in, we were just a normal church going, family. No one was aware of the dark secrets we held within the walls of the tiny house by the swamp.
I was the woman with the razor strop and I made sure every blow connected.

I kept my composure until he pulled out of the driveway and then my anger quickly exploded into rage.
Those ungrateful little bastards. After everything, I did for them. This was my thanks.
A bolt of straight adrenaline shot through my veins and I grabbed the gun…..
I had instilled the fear of god in them. I am not a woman to be tampered with. How could this be happening?
My one mistake…and I don’t make many… was not realizing that these stupid children would grow up.
