I have this idea for a story in my head, where a woman is abducted by a co-worker she works with and is held in a underground bunker/cell and is repeatedly raped. Eventually she begins to give up hope of escape and stops fighting his advances.
My question is at what point does someone usually break? How can I write this without making it seem non-believable?
At what point does someone give up fighting off their attacker and give in to them? How is it that at some point, it becomes "normality?" so to speak.
My MC is held over a number of years, could that play a facter in the fact she stops fighting altogether? I'm not wanting to use the "Stockholm" oenology, but would it play a factor? would she end up developing something like that in order to survive the trauma?
She also gives birth during her captivity. How would she be able to raise a child in that environment? What effects would it have on the child? How could the MC make it easier on the child's development?
