I have Chuck Wendig to thank, once more, for another inspired blog post. His challenge for this week was based on the theme of revenge. Any genre.
I know my last post was a crime laden tale, and, surprisingly, this one is, too.
He gave us 100 words this week instead of 1,000. An entire story, not a vignette. This was a challenge, but a fun one.
I give you my offering.
REVENGE

The gun dug into the soft skin under his chin.
He swallowed and choked out, "Please, I didn't know."
"You saw us together. You knew she was mine."
There was a sharp pain and a loud crack as the baseball bat met his ribs.
He bawled like a baby.
"You did it and you will pay."
He could hear the trigger being squeezed.
"No, please!" he shrieked. His hands, tied behind his back, opened futilely.
The gun fired and he fell to the floor.
"She's all mine now," she said.
