Scarlett (Second Edition)
There was no way she would make me feel guilty for the wickedness she tried to dish out.
Marvin beat Annie until blood seeped through her skin, her body marked with brutal slashes. When he was done, they chained her to me, our wrists bound together in cold, unyielding metal. Around us, they rounded up others, young women they deemed valuable, one by one, chaining them like animals. By the time they finished, twenty-five of us were bound, our freedom taken, our futures stripped away.
