Ruckus Crown

Chapter 6

PARANG NAWALAN ng ganang mabuhay ni Sunset sa isiping naghirap din ang dalawang taong pinagkunan niya ng lakas ng loob.

But the thought of them there alive and probably fighting to live keep her to stay and continue with life. Besides she still has to pay for every single sin she did. At least, with being locked up here she could— she hoped — redeem half of her soul. If it is even possible. Or maybe give justice to every soul that departed because she was too coward to help.

Sunset could only hope and wish that every woman who lost their life from the earshot of her ears is happy seeing her locked up, and partying because René is beaten up badly.

She sighed and went to the bathroom to take a bath before the guard fetch her to work in the factory.

Damn... It's been five months and life here couldn't be more boring and quiet.

Kinuha niya ang sabon at pinabula iyon habang ikinikiskis sa body brush na may mahabang hawakan. Tapos ay iyon ang ginamit niya para linisin ang likod niya.

As far as she could, Sunset refused to even touch her back. Her back is littered with scars so ugly it could par with her soul.

Bumuntong hininga si Sunset saka iniwaglit kung ano man ang itsura ng likod niya saka nagmamadaling tinapos ang pagligo.

Her day went as always.

Boring.

Silent.

Full of unexpressed anger.

Pain.

It went on for another two weeks until she snapped. Headbutted another jerk when he groped her ass.

Fucking asshole can't keep his hand on his ass, eh?

Sunset rolled his eyes as one guard roughly lead her to the punishment chamber where she will be lashed. Five times.

Hmm... Talk about lashing, she didn't get one when she sent René to the ICU. So good of them to let her pass. And the scumbag René, fortunately, is in his cell still suffering from her beating.

Geez, weak.

He couldn't keep a few punches but he does have a gut to torture women who couldn't fight him. Tss.

Sunset glared at the guard when he roughly pushed her inside the chamber, causing her to stumble and almost fall.

"Arse." She mumbled under her breath before the officer named Mark ungently gripped her arm to force her to be on her knees, in front of a wooden chair.

"You will get five lashes for the trouble you've caused," saad nito at kinuha ang latigo.

"Do the jerk get too for groping me?" she asked as she bent over to the chair in front of her.

"He will. Worry not, we don't tolerate such disrespect here despite all of the prisoners' history."

Sunset hummed in response.

"You don't seem bother at all with what you are about to get. I wonder."

Ngumisi si Sunset. "I'm used to it."

Dahil nakatayo sa harapan niya si Mark ay nakita niya ang pagkunot ng noo nito. If he is surprised or not, Sunset could only guess. The freaking guy is good at concealing his thoughts.

"I'm going to take your shirt off." Imporma nito na nagpakaba kay Sunset. Pero nanatiling blangko ang mukha niya sa kabila no'n.

"Can I do it myself? I kinda hate people touching me in any way." Sunset asked, her tone was uncompromising.
