🏔 I had a feeling my husband was slipping sleeping pills into my tea. That night, while he stepped out, I poured it down the sink and pretended to be asleep. What he did next made my blo;od run cold.
I lay in our bed, forcing my breathing to stay slow and steady, my heart beating so loud I was sure Dererick could hear it from across the room. My eyes were barely cracked open, just enough to see him moving in the darkness. It was 2:17 a.m., and my husband was creeping around our bedroom, wearing latex gloves and carrying a small black bag I had never seen before.
Three hours earlier, I had done something that terrified me more than anything in my life. When Dererick handed me my nightly cup of chamomile tea, I smiled and thanked him. But this time, when he went to brush his teeth, I poured every last drop down the sink. Then I climbed into bed and waited.
Now, watching him, I knew I had been right. Dererick thought I was unconscious, knocked out cold by whatever he had been putting in my tea. He moved with the confidence of someone who had done this many times before. That scared me more than anything.
The whole nightmare had started three weeks ago. Every morning, I would wake up feeling like I’d been hit by a truck—groggy, confused. I started paying closer attention. The strange, heavy sleep only happened on nights when Dererick was home. The small, faint bruises on my arms and legs that I couldn't explain. That's when I knew. Dererick was putting something in my tea. My own husband was sedating me. I had no idea why.
I had to catch him. I needed to know what he was doing to me while I was unconscious. Tonight was the night.
As Dererick moved closer to the bed, I forced every muscle to stay relaxed. Even in the darkness, I could see he was holding something in his gloved hands. He reached toward me, and every instinct screamed at me to run. But I needed to know.
Dererick set something on the nightstand with a soft click. I could see him pulling a small camera from his black bag. He positioned it on the dresser, angling it toward me. A small red light blinked on. He was recording. My stomach turned.
Then, Dererick did something that made my blood freeze: he pulled out a pair of scissors. I watched in horror as he carefully cut a small piece of fabric from the bottom of my pajama top, right at the hem where it wouldn't be noticeable. He placed the fabric in a small plastic bag and sealed it.
He put the scissors away and moved closer. He started taking pictures of me with his phone. But then he started moving my body. Dererick lifted my arm, positioned it differently, and took more pictures. He moved my leg, adjusted my head on the pillow, even pulled at my pajama top to make it look more disheveled. Each time he moved me, he would take more photos.
I had to use every ounce of willpower to stay limp and unresponsive, a lifeless doll while my husband posed me for his sick photographs.
After about 20 minutes, he stopped taking pictures and pulled out his laptop. He started transferring the photos. I realized he was uploading them somewhere. While they uploaded, Dererick opened his notebook and started writing. He was taking notes.
Then his phone buzzed. He picked it up, read a text, and typed a response. A few seconds later, another message came in. Dererick smiled as he read it. That smile was the most terrifying thing I had seen all night. He typed another message, then showed his phone screen toward the camera that was still recording. He was communicating with someone, showing them his work. Someone was giving him instructions. This wasn't just him.
Finally, he started packing up. He put the camera, laptop, and notebook back into his bag. He took one last picture of me with his phone, then turned off the camera on the dresser. But before he left the room, he leaned down and kissed my forehead. 'Sweet dreams, Anna,' he whispered. His voice was so gentle, so loving.
Then he was gone. I heard him go downstairs and, a few minutes later, the front door closed quietly. Dererick had left the house at almost 3:00 a.m.
I lay there, my whole body shaking. What I had just witnessed was so much worse than anything I had imagined. Dererick wasn't just sedating me. He was photographing me, collecting samples from my body, keeping detailed records, and sharing everything with other people. I wasn't just his victim. I was his product.
The first thing I did was search for his real laptop. I found it in a locked briefcase under our bed. The combination was our anniversary. It clicked open immediately.
What I found made me sick, but I forced myself to keep looking. There were hundreds of photos organized into folders by date. The oldest folder was dated eight months ago. But I wasn't the only victim. Read more in Comment or Most relevant -> All Comments 🗨️
