Episode 1

Genevieve was all done for the day. She smiled satisfactorily as she tie her hair up. She just completed earning her tuition for the next semester. Now she can continue studying and her hopes of having a better life could come true.

Her family used to be well off when she was in high school but due to bad decisions they lost their company and her father become an alcoholic and her mother a gambler. She had to work for her own to get into a uni. Luckily she was smart enough to earn a scholarship. But even with the scholarship she still has a lot to pay. Thus, she had to work and study at the same time.

"Mom! Dad! I'm home!" she yelled as she got in the door. No one answered, she was used on this. Their warm days were gone. Her mother used to greet her all smiles with shopping bags on her arms at this time pf the day. Then late at night, her father would come and she would give him some tea and her mother have readied the bath for him. But now, those are all just a distant memory. They've changed a lot since then.

She look around and see their messy house. She sigh and put her back on the hook on the wall and started picking things up. Bottles and food packs everywhere. She was in the middle of getting everything in order when she heard a loud thud on the door. Maybe her father forgot his keys again.

With a smile on her face she went to the other and open it to be surprised by big builded men. They pushed their way in.

"W-who are you?" she demanded, trying to be brave. One of the men carried a metal bat. This looks like a genuine gangster invasion that she used to watched on the television.

The tallest man look at her and snickered. "Looks like it was a fine deal. You look like of a high quality. You'd fetch a big price on the market."

"W-what?"

"Your parents sold you off in exchange of their debt. You belong to us now." one says.

"That's impossible! My parents would never do that!" she screamed and tried to run away from them but one pulled her by the hair. She slumped on the floor. She felt two hands on her shoulder. Pinning her on the ground. The tallest man squatted in front of her. She hissed and turn trying to get away. Afraid of what's going to happen next.

"Don't worry, Kitten. You'll love your new home." he said as he pushed a handkerchief covering her mouth and face. She struggled trying not to inhale it. Wriggling. Her ears got numb as a sting of pain crossed her face. Seconds later she felt herself losing consciousness.
