“I’m here because I know what it’s like to be underestimated. To be told I’m weak, useless, invisible. But that’s why I fight harder. Because people like me don’t have safety nets. We can’t afford to fail. We learn fast, we adapt faster, and we survive what others can’t. For us it's either we win or we win" The room went silent. My head screaming at me, why did you say that, how does that explain your purpose." The slick-haired man raised an eyebrow.

We became tougher, stronger and had the most loyal group of men ever. The club house reeked of booze, drugs and sex even more than usual. Half naked women were everywhere and guys were fucking them in every position you could imagine. Other guys were drinking, smoking, snorting, shooting up, playing pool or poker or just talking and laughing. I was at the bar since I was late and needed to catch up.

“So you know that I’m not a crook. Also I’ll love to stay here and keep arguing with you on whether I’m a creep or not but I had a long day at work and will like to get some much needed sleep.” I contemplate his offer for a while. The major problem is that I don’t know him, and looking at him from head to toe with his bulging muscles it was pretty obvious that he was definitely physically stronger than me. He would likely beat me into a pulp in half a minute. But there was also his kind eyes that softened his features, they looked like they couldn’t hurt a fly unless it was a matter of life and death.

“They will be killed within the first two minutes. Their bodies are too soft, they have no pain threshold!” Placing my hands over my face, I stop myself from screaming into my hands. Sweat breaks out on my forehead as I slump down the wall and land on the floor like a broken doll. How will I survive? I won’t. Between King Harvey being cold and ruthless, and not even human, how will I get through the night? He is not human…anywhere on his body. Just his fighting prowess alone rivals five bodybuilders. He is infinitely stronger than I, and how will I manage to live through his sex drive?

He understood he needed to be hard in order to survive, that the weak fall, the strong prosper, and that was the way the new world went. Nightmares be damned.
