For 13 years, British citizen Anna Ruston was raped every night. Abducted at the age of 15 by an Asian taxi driver, she has revealed her horrifying journey in tell-all book 'Secret Slave' - one that would lead her to attempt suicide with her own scarf.

Ruston claims that her captor branded her his 'white s***', and prostituted her out to other men.

"I can still see that bedroom, the corner where I would rock in pain. Although after a while I stopped feeling pain, I think my body shut down." she told The Daily Mirror. She lived 13 years a slave, being forced to relieve herself in a toilet in her home's corner.

She met the man she would know only as 'Malik' at a taxi stand in 1987

He invited her home, to "meet his parents". Instead, she was violently raped. With her own fractured family history, she was not reported missing. Malik would only pause the violence when she was pregnant.

"When you feel a baby move in your stomach you feel you have someone with you, you are not alone."

Every single time, her children were taken away from her, sold to other couples. It was political correctness that prevented others from trying to help her. Her captor ensured it.

"Malik dressed me in his culture's clothes, dyed my hair black, made me wear a scarf and keep my head down.

She was beaten for an attempt to flee, but flee she did, when Malik's family said they were going to take her to Pakistan: "I knew that I wasn't going to go to a wedding and I knew that they would probably stone me to death or sell me."

She is still too scared to report her captor to the police.

Escape

She eventually decided to escape after being told the family were taking her to Pakistan, where she feared she would be 'stoned to death' or sold. A trained nurse visiting the household saw that she weighed 40 kilos. Ruston slipped her a piece of paper begging for help when the family was busy with Eid.

The health visitor handed one back to her promising to wait outside. When she got the cue, her phone ringing thrice, she ran.
