VOID

The air reeked of whiskey, sweat, and bad luck, the kind of stench you only get when men gamble away their dignity with the same hands they use to shuffle cards.

I sat in the corner, bourbon burning down my throat, watching four fools huddle around a table, acting like kings with a few cards in their hands.

On the table, chips and cash piled high, even a gold watch someone had thrown in when he ran out of money.

The first man, big with sweat soaking his shirt, slammed his cards down. Pair of eights. Not bad, but not good enough.

The second, thin and twitchy, chewed his lip as he laid his cards. Three of a kind. A low whistle cut from the crowd as he raked in a small pile of chips with a smug.

The third leaned back in his chair, his teeth flashing gold when he smiled. He spread his cards in a straight flush and the room broke into cheers.

I sipped my bourbon as I watched the winner dragged the pile of chips toward himself.

One of the loser's face went red. "Son of a bitch!"

    RALI"And these rows here are for the history lovers." She pointed at the shelves for me. "I know the store is quite big. That is why it's one of the most popular on here. But with time you'll get used to everything. And if you're confused at any point, you don't forget to ask the other girlies for assistance.""Sure. Thank you, ma'am.""Zerali, you need to promise you you'll be good." Her kind smile stepped aside for the manager. "Over here, I don't tolerate sloppy. You know, I don't even hire people without certificates, but Marovelle has been a good woman. Hell, I can't say No to any of her requests. I'm giving you a chance because of her. Don't make me regret it."I brightened, my fingers finding my necklace and smoothing the chain. "I do understand the length you're going for me, ma'am, and I won't take it for granted. I promise you won't regret it."She measured me with one last look, then nodded. "Good. Come now, let me show you these records."An hour later, I'd clocked in

    "What is it, girl? Let it out before it rots." Marovelle tapped the table.I chewed my lip, eyes doing laps around the room. "Well... I've decided to get a job."Rosaline gasped, her hands flying over her mouth just before she screamed "Holy Shit!"Marovelle thumped her arm without looking. "I've told you to stop cursing, you uncultured thing.""Marv! Can you ignore my vocabulary and focus on the miracle? Our girl wants to start living!"Marovelle pulled a chair beside me and took my hand. "Are you serious, Rali?"I nodded shyly, my cheeks warming."Well, this is the best news I've heard all year! Where do you want to work? Would you like the restaurant?"I lowered my head, my whole mood sliding a notch. I'd actually like to work there as I'd get to assist and repay her in some way, but the restaurant was usually filled with too many people of mixed genders. I wasn't ready to breathe the same air as that many men, not yet."I... I think I'd prefer somewhere calmer. I'm sorry.""Yup. S

    RALIOne Month Later"So, how were the dreams last night?" she asked, that warm, dimpled smile switching on like a small lamp."It was okay. I slept really good."Hands on my skin. A knife dragging down my back. Me screaming.Lies.I kept my practiced smile on as I looked at her.But there was always something about therapists seeing right through you.She parked a long stare on me then dropped a sigh. "Are you sure, Zerali?"The performance leaked out of my shoulders. "They did come for an hour or so. But it wasn't as intense as the other nights. Believe me, my nights have been more peaceful. You can ask Marovelle."She shook her head and scribbled something in her note. A few strands slid free of her high ponytail. When she straightened, she hooked them behind her ear."How about the task I gave in our last session? Did you make that friend?"This smile was bright and genuine. "I did! They loved the cookies and even promised to come over to the house some time so I could make mo

    She yelled words that made no sense. Not immediately."She's my little girl!"Her hands dropped from surrender.Something cold hit me."She was taken from me." The sentence cracked in the middle. "They never let me have my little girl to myself. Everything... Everything I did was for her. To avenge her!"Tears ran in bright lanes down her cheeks. She raked her nails along her hairline like she was trying to unzip the pain and climb out of it.Ice-cold rage flooded my veins. I squeezed the gun tighter. "If you don't start talking you'll have your tears swapped for something red."She sagged into the nearest chair. Snot shined at her upper lip which she swiped away with the back of her hand."They made me a surrogate. That witch Gretchen was barren and couldn't have her own child. Her pathetic husband was desperate and forced himself on me. Gretchen was damn mad when I got pregnant. But she was all about public face. So, they kept me hidden, she faked a belly, and the world congratulate

    VOIDAnother dead end.I kicked the table hard enough for files and cords to spill to the floor.Katya carded her fingers through her hair, a sigh slipping out."I'm sorry, boss. But we'll keep looking. All hands are on deck, I promise."Now that statement was pissing me off. "All hands have been on deck for a week. Should I fetch the whole harbor now?"I fought to keep my calm. I rolled a cigarette to my mouth but my lungs filled with smoke, not calm.We've checked the airports. Nothing. The train stations, failure too. Most of the cameras in the train station hadn't been working—stupid dumb people. But we checked the few we could and there was still no sign of her. We even checked their passenger lists.I've had my hands on every surveillance piece I could. I've done every fucking thing I could. Why was it so hard to find her?"Someone somewhere must be lying." I leaned against the wall, taking drags from my stick."That's possible. Only problem is we don't know who. Everyone cl

    RALI'You're getting better at this,' Blayne said, his cock still stuck in me. 'I guess practice makes perfect is an accurate phrase afterall.'Beside him, his friend stroked his dick. It was rock hard already. His eyes were half-lidded with lust.'I need her here, Blayne,' he breathed.'Nah. I told you to excuse us if you couldn't take it. You didn't pay for her. You not getting her.''This is about fucking money? How much do you want?''A hundred.''Hundred grand!?''You'd be foolish to think I meant bucks.''Seriously, that's crazy money.''Well, the situation is urgent. You can go fuck yourself if you don't have it.'The whole time, I stayed seated across his lap, my legs balanced on either side of his chair. He hadn't asked me to move yet, so I had to stay still.His friend hissed. 'Fine. Get her over here.' He stroked his dick harder.Blayne laughed as he clapped my ass. 'Get your pussy over there, Rali. It's about to bring me more money.'Rising from his leg, his cum leaked
