Mag-log inJack POV
Then he kissed me. His lips were strong. Held onto mine like he was trying to take all of my
mouth. I was shocked and angry. I hated it. I fought to pull my head away but he held me still.
He was really strong.
He reached down. His hands went inside my pants. Grabbed my backside. His fingers pushed
hard against me slipping into the tight opening. "Please stop! I don’t want this!" I begged,. He
didn’t listen. I was really scared.
“I hate you!" I whispered,. That did not make him change. He just kept going.
“How about you hate me more?" he said. He pulled down his pants, showing me his large, hard
penis. I stared at how huge it was in shock. I couldn’t believe it.
He saw my face. His smile got bigger like he had won a big fight. He moved his weight onto me
pushing me down onto the mattress. The springs made a loud complaining sound under the
pressure. I couldn’t move my arms and his body felt heavy like a rock pressing all the air out of
me. I was really struggling.
He didn’t waste time. He pressed his hips forward. The first touch was an awful stretch. It hurt
deeply, like something tearing, as his hard length forced its way into the space. I yelled out—a
sharp sound that was half pain and half surprise. I was really hurting.
He kept pushing ignoring my cry. He was breathing hard and fast. I squeezed my eyes shut tight
trying to leave that dusty room in my mind. I tried to think of anything, the sky, clean air, anything
that wasn't this terrible feeling. I couldn't escape.
He kept moving, never stopping, until a big shudder ran through his body. He let out a sigh of
relief and then collapsed, his whole weight resting heavily on my stomach. I was really relieved
it was over.
The quiet after the sounds stopped was almost worse. His breathing was loud and ragged. He
didn’t look at my face. He just leaned his forehead against mine, acting like this was normal, like
a moment between two people. It was really weird.
He lifted his weight a little bit so I could take a small painful breath.
“That wasn’t so bad, was it, Jack?" he mumbled, his voice thick from his effort. I hated him.
Ryan finally got up. He moved off me. The relief of his weight leaving was instant but everything
still hurt too much. I could barely breathe right.
He pulled his pants up fast. He didn’t look at me with any care. He just gave an order. "Get up.
Go clean yourself," he said. Unchained me. I was really sore.
I didn't argue. I couldn’t. My whole body felt sore and heavy like I was walking through mud.
Even sitting up was work. My muscles screamed when I stood. I was really struggling.
The bathroom was tiny. I turned the water on high making it as hot as I could stand. The steam
rose up fast trying to cover me. I needed to wash to scrub off the feeling of him. I wanted to get
clean.
The hot water didn’t fix the deep hurt inside. When I moved carefully to wash myself a sharp
stinging pain shot through me. I bent over under the spray trying to be gentle. It was no use.
The place he had forced his way into was red. Felt bruised. I couldn't look down; the pain told
me everything I needed to know. I was really hurting.
That’s when the bathroom door shook hard.
“Jack? Are you taking forever?" Ryan’s voice sounded loud. Muffled through the door. I was
scared.
“Almost done, " I called out, my voice cracking. I turned the water hotter wishing the noise could
hide me. I was really trying to hide.
The shaking stopped. Then came a crash.
I froze against the tile wall. I knew the lock was weak. It wouldn't keep him out. I was really
scared.
The door flew open with a bang hitting the sink. Ryan stood there, already wet from the steam,
wearing his shirt. He looked angry and hungry again his body hard and ready. I was really
terrified.
The small room filled with steam, soap, and a scary kind of heat. He walked into the shower
space with me not caring about the water. He was really strong.
He grabbed my wrist hard—the one that was tied up before. He pulled my arm away from my
body. The sudden movement made the pain inside me flare up. I gasped, leaning toward him
just to stay standing. I was really hurting.
“You think you can hide from me in here?" he asked, his voice very low and mean. He kept
holding my chin forcing my head up so I had to look right at him. I was really scared.
“Look at me, Jack," he told me. "Look at what you make me do." His other hand moved, taking
his penis and pushing the tip against my bottom lip. I was really terrified.
A deep shiver went through me. It was fear, mixed with terrible sadness. My legs felt like jelly; I
thought I might fall down. I was really struggling.
“Take it " he whispered. It wasn't a request. "You hated me before. Show me how much you hate
me now. Take it all in Jack. Do it now." I was really scared.
My throat closed up. My whole mind screamed no. I remembered how strong he was and what
he did when I fought. Fighting would only bring trouble. I was really trapped.
Shivering terribly I slowly bent my head. I knew I had to do it. I opened my mouth. He was huge,
close, and scary. I didn't want this. I moved forward, taking him in, pretending it was something
else, like just warm water or just some bad taste. I was really hurting.
My whole body shook hard as I forced myself to do what he commanded drawing him in.

Jack POV"Henceforth, you will live here. You belong to me now." Ryan declared, his deep voice slicingthrough my defenses.I knew this wasn't a rich man's house.It was an empire.You can feel the power when you're inside it. It presses against your skin. It moves quietlythrough the corridors. It hides in the silence.I walked the halls slowly that morning, pretending to be curious, pretending to be confused. Iwas studying. Watching.Men in suits stood at corners without speaking. They wore earpieces. Carried themselves likesoldiers. Their eyes followed movement without turning their heads. Cameras were placed highin each corridor, small and discreet but impossible to miss once you noticed one.The windows were thick.The doors required codes.Even the air felt guarded.That afternoon I passed a large office downstairs. The door was slightly open. I shouldn't havestopped,. I did.Inside Ryan stood near a desk made of polished wood. Two men faced him. One of themlooked familiar.

Thunder quiets the talkers.Even the powerful guys hurry inside when the sky starts to roar. I had always liked storms. Theyremind the city that it's not in charge.Control is my business.That night I was coming back from a meeting on the east side of town. The car moved smoothlythrough the rain wipers swishing across the windshield in a beat. My driver kept both handsfirmly on the wheel. Two vehicles followed behind us headlights shining bright in the darkness.The meeting went well. It always does.Guys sit across from me confident at first. They talk loudly. They make demands.. Then I look atthem. Just look. And they quiet down. I don't need to raise my voice. Real authority doesn'tshout.I leaned back in the leather seat. Adjusted my cufflinks. The storm got stronger, and the rainwas hitting the roof of the car like pebbles. The city outside blurred into streaks o

Buses make a lot ofnoise.When the sun sets, the city's true face shows. The streetlights flicker like eyes. The air gets coldand thin. Shadows stretch across roads and every alley looks like a mouth ready to swallowsomeone.I've lived in this city my whole life.It still doesn't know my name.I'm twenty-two years old. Old enough to know. Young enough to hope for something different..Hope costs money in Stone City. You need money for that too.Tonight my stomach hurts. I haven't eaten since yesterday afternoon. That was just half a loaf ofdry bread I found behind a bakery. I told myself I'd look for work today. I walked over the city intoshops, warehouses, and small offices."Do you have experience?" they asked."No.""Do you have any certificates?""No.""Can you read well?"I hesitated.That was enough for them.The doors closed gently.
