GHOST He threw another punch.Then another.Bone cracked beneath his knuckles, the sharp sound echoing through the underground ring like music. Sweet, violent music that settled something dark inside his chest.The man staggered, barely able to stand, blood already pouring from his split lip. His swollen eyes struggled to stay open, his breath coming out in ragged gasps.Ghost didn’t stop.He drove his fist forward again, the impact snapping the man’s head to the side. A spray of blood scatters across the concrete floor.The crowd surrounding the ring roared.Men shouted.Money exchanged hands.Excitement filled the air.But Ghost heard none of it.All he heard was the rhythm of violence.All he felt was the pressure building in his chestAnger, betrayal and rage finally breaking loose.He stepped forward and delivered a brutal kick straight into the man’s ribs.A sickening crack followed.The man collapsed instantly, coughing up blood.Ghost stood over him, chest rising and falling

Six Months Ago.Emily skipped lightly along the dusty road, the plastic bag swinging from her fingers as if it weighed nothing at all.The afternoon sun shone warmly on her.Henry had sent her to the store to buy a few things for him and his girlfriend, who had arrived unexpectedly that morning.The woman had barely glanced at Emily before handing her the list.Drugs.Alcohol.And…..Emily scrunched her nose as she peeked into the bag.Condom.Her face twisted in disgust.They were going to do that thing.The thought made her blush, heat creeping up her cheeks. She shook her head quickly, trying to chase the image away, but a small, curious smile slipped on her lips anyway.Emily was already twenty.She would be twenty-one in a few months.And she had never had a boyfriend.Never been kissed.Never held a man’s hand.Sometimes, late at night, when the house was quiet and the pain in her body refused to let her sleep, she would imagine what love felt like. She would imagine warm arms

Emily stared at the girl called Eve as she continued laughing uncontrollably.Eve held her stomach and nearly rolled on the floor, her laughter echoing inside the basement cell.“You think–” another burst of laughter cut her off before she could finish. She wiped tears from the corner of her eyes, still laughing so hard her shoulders shook. “Oh my God…..my stomach…”Emily only stared at her in confusion.Finally, Eve managed to calm down a little.“You think because you did a wedding with a cardboard picture of Ghost, you’re actually married to him?” Eve asked before another laugh escaped her lips.Emily’s fingers tightened around the rough fabric of her wedding gown.“Honey, you were sold to Ghost. Not married to him,” Eve added, still grinning.Slowly, she drops herself on the cold floor. The ugly shapeless wedding gown spread around her like crumpled paper. She had hated the dress because of how plain and embarrassing it looked.Now she was strangely grateful for it.At least it c

Madam FlorenceFor six years, Madam Florence has been managing this mansion.In those six years, she has seen a lot of girls pass through that front gates.Girls with different backgrounds.Different shapes.Different personalities.Different levels of beauty.Some arrived crying.Some arrived screaming.Some arrived believing they were special.Some arrived believing Ghost would fall in love with them.Eventually, reality crushed all of them.The mansion had a way of doing that.Florence knew people.It was part of why she had survived here for so long.She could tell when someone would obey.She could tell when someone would break.And she could definitely tell when someone was trouble.Not any kind of trouble but the kind of trouble that could eventually become her problem.The new girl was that kind of trouble.The moment she had looked her in the eyes and refused to kneel, Florence knew it.The girl was dangerous.Not because she was strong.But because she wasn't afraid enough

Emily was beginning to understand one thing about this place.Nothing here was normal.Not the women.Not the rules.And definitely not the man who owned all of it."I'm telling you, you're going to be legendary here," Eve said, laughing so hard she almost walked into one of the pillars.Emily rolled her eyes.Legendary?She had been here less than twenty four hours.She had gotten slapped, locked in a cell, burned with a cigarette, threatened by Dora, insulted by half the mansion, and gotten into a fight on her first morning.If that was what being legendary looked like, she wasn't sure she wanted it.Eve kept laughing anyway.She was now the one assigned to show Emily around the mansion.After the fight, complete chaos had broken out.Madam Florence had eventually appeared and shouted loud enough to silence everyone.Of course, Florence had threatened Emily afterward.Apparently fighting came with consequences.According to Eve, anyone caught fighting lost their weekly allowance.Em
