Description

<p><span style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">What happens when a king loses his prowess? The day Henry IV could finally declare he had vanquished his enemies, he threw it all away with an infamous deed. No English king had executed an archbishop before. And divine judgment was quick to follow. Many thought he was struck with leprosy—God's greatest punishment for sinners. From that point on, Henry's health was cursed and he fought doggedly on as his body continued to betray him—reducing this once great warrior to an invalid. Fortunately for England, his heir was ready and eager to take over. But Henry wasn't willing to relinquish what he had worked so hard to preserve. No one was going to take away his royal prerogative—not even Prince Hal. But Henry didn't count on Hal's dauntless nature, which threatened to tear the royal family apart.</span></p>

Once he hit me, he said he was sorry and then did it again. But everytime it got worse and worse, hitting me with belts, hangers and even trying to strangle me and hit me in the face or slap me.  I was in love with my eyes shut, kinda like you. We all make mistakes, but we never realize that we can get into those kind of situations. Granted I was with him for 5 years and the first year we were together I never knew such a thing of him abusing me in the future. He treated me just like Shane. <br /><br /></font></font><font size="5"><strong><em><font size="4"><br /><span style="font-family:'times new roman';">Have you ever hit home.
