Hello @ceestitches,
Thank you for posting in the InkWell. I can see that you enjoy writing stories. Your style is quite fluent. However, I need to apprise you of our community guidelines, which you will find described here:

@theinkwell/the-ink-well-manifesto-for-writers-readers-and-investors

and here

created/hive-170798

As you can see, we do not allow stories that portray violence against women and/or girls.
Although your story does not advocate or glorify violence against women, still it does contain that theme. This is not in accord with community standards. I'm sure you will write many stories in the future that will comfortably fit within our guidelines.
