Dusting off this muse again. She's stuck in a violent relationship when her husband moves them to another state/country/city. I was thinking the husband is some politician, CEO or district attorney. She is supposed to be by his side at most official events.
Two ideas: she gets kidnapped by some people who intend to harm him. But the guys don't hit women and treat her with as much respect as possible. Possible Stockholm Syndrome?
Or a neighbour wants to her help her escape that marriage. Maybe she helped him before too. But he's a criminal/ gangster/part of the mafia....happy to brainstorm a little.
