📖 Story Description - My Mother's Shadow
In a town where silence is tradition and fear is inheritance, a young girl grows up believing she is protecting her mother's livelihood.
The motel they run hides more than tired travelers - it hides broken girls, stolen childhoods, and secrets no one dares to name.
Loyal to the woman she calls mother, she helps sustain a system that trades innocence for survival, never questioning its origin.
What she does not know is that her life began as a punishment.
Sold as a child. Raised in darkness.
And born from the courage of a woman who once stood alone against forced marriages, cruelty, and tradition - a woman whose voice was silenced but whose shadow still lingers.
As truths slowly unravel, one question remains:
Can someone raised by evil escape the shadow of a mother she never knew?
