Speechless
Blaise
Anger and music are all I have left.
I've spent the last four years in captivity, shuffled from country to country on the flesh market. No matter where I end up, the men are all the same. All that changes is how frank they are with their demented fantasies.
The john eyeing me now is going to be just like the rest. I shouldn't hope, just because he seems to be an American. And yet... he knew her name. Mandy, the whole reason I got stuck here in the first place. The anger rages, the music clashing in a cacophony, and all I know is that in a few small words, he's rocked what little is left of my world.
Theo
I have one rule about my work: it's not about any individual person. Traffickers abducted, tortured, and killed my little sister Haley, and I've dedicated my life to returning the favor. The SEALs taught me just about everything I need to know from a tactical standpoint. What I wasn't prepared for was to find a fiery pair of eyes staring back at me, challenging, no, daring me to do something about her situation.
She's not part of the mission. Saving her might well wreck my chances at dismantling this ring. And yet, when I'm forced to watch as they break her over and over again up on that stage, I know what I'm going to do before I do it.
My promise to my little sister is going to have to wait a little longer.
