    Phone 999 now. Have him arrested and then have them find you a shelter to go to until you can get back home to your family and old life.

    EDIT: Take a photo of your injuries asap for evidence, which might be needed later.

    Please do something now, it will only get worse, even if he promises he will never do it again.
