Heather had been solitary for years, her romantic life as barren as a desert, save for one terrifying kidnapping…
Thus, this whole exchange had left her body aching from head to toe.
The stocky guard was nothing short of a sadist. He gnawed at her skin with a ferocity that sought to leave a mark, a stamp of his brutality.
As he attempted to pull out, Heather's legs clung to his waist with desperate strength.
"Don't go..."
"Fuck! Let go! You fucking..."
His protest was too late.
Moments later, both were panting heavily, sprawled on the cold floor of the dank basement.
After catching her breath, the guard, clearly not pleased, slapped her hard across the face and stood up. He locked the chain around her once more and left.
Lying there, staring at the moldy ceiling, Heather couldn't help but laugh bitterly.
"Think you can get rid of me that easily, Dorothy? Dream on!" She cursed inwardly.
She had to get pregnant, and fast. It didn't matter whose child it was. If she was carrying a baby when extradited back home, she wouldn't face the death penalty, no matter the sentence.
To be alive was to have a chance at everything.
...
The Everglow City Resort was a joint venture between Lopez Corporation and East Star Enterprises. Though East Star had since been absorbed by Lopez Corp, the names of both companies still graced the contractor's board at the entrance.
Dorothy was struck by nostalgia upon revisiting the resort.
The last time she had set foot here, the place was a construction site. Now, she returned as a visitor.
"Abigail and Langston, look, a Ferris wheel!" Karen exclaimed, her excitement surpassing even that of the kids.
Winter clothes too thin, long walks to and from school, summers spent washing dishes by a sweltering stove in a diner kitchen.
"I've got regrets, you know," Everett suddenly said.
She stopped and looked up at him. "Oh?"
"I should've been by your side sooner," he said.
Not years of hesitation over a single letter. She could have been spared so much hardship.
"Everett, the fact that you came at all is more than I could've hoped for."
It was a luxury Dorothy never allowed herself to dream of.
Squeezing her hand tighter, he pulled her close. "Then, Dorothy... how about spending a lifetime with me?"
