Y/N POV

I got beaten again.

For no reason.

I'm a grown adult...

Yet I'm being treated like a trapped animal.

That's my life. Ever since I was 6. And 15 years have passed, though my life hasn't changed at all.

Pain. Misery. Mistreated. That's me.

But I can't escape it. All I can do is hope things will get better. That I can escape this hell hole.

Because this isn't a life worth living.

When I was 6 I was forced into the care of my abusive stepfather. I've cried many times for help but money and status always wins people over.

But I believe... that one day... whenever that is...

I will find that hope I've always been waiting for.

-

"Y/N!!" I flinched at the loud noise but got up quickly, rushing downstairs knowing too well that not showing up fast will lead to the worst situation.

There my stepfather stood, drunk as hell.

He smiled cockily when he saw me and stumbled over, nearly falling over but I caught him.

"You..." he stepped back and glared at me before grabbing my neck with his two hands and slamming me against the wall.

He laughed at me struggling for air as I tried to pull his hands away from me, but it was no use.

He suddenly let me go and laughed like a psychopath, before kicking me in the stomach then pulling me up by my hair harshly.

"Go get some soju... hurry!" He let me go and I scrambled to my feet, rushing out.

It was pitch black out, but I was more scared of my stepfather.

Last time I disobeyed his orders I ended up getting beaten and trapped in a room for days.

-

I reached the closest store but it was closed.

Dammit... going to another store will take too long...

I quickly scanned the area and to my relief, I saw another store nearby.

I walked and turned right, seeing the store in the distance.

But a loud scream made me stop in my tracks.

With widened eyes, I turned my head to the side and saw two guys wearing black surrounding a guy covered in blood in the ground.

One of them looked up, and I quickly turned back around, running as fast as I could.

But I couldn't run any further when I felt a sharp pain in my neck.

My sight went blurry, and my head hurt.

It was a tranquilizer.

No I can't pass out... stay awake... stay-

Then everything went dark.

-

Everything hurts... everything... I'm awake!

I snapped my eyes open, taking in the surroundings around me.

It was an empty room... and by the wall stood a quite short male, playing with a knife with a bored expression plastered on his face.

I just stared at him, I was too afraid of what would happen if I made any noise.

But that thought went out of the window when he looked over at me, and we locked eyes.

He sighed and pressed on his earpiece  before saying, "she's awake."
