Nightmare She Lives: Prologue

.

.

She laid on her back, panting heavily. She held the tears back, making sure to not let any emotion show. She'd had her shield up for so long, there was no way it could break now. Especially in front of a customer. The man in room got up, put his pants on, and left. She curled up on her side in a tight ball, hugging her knees. She was used to have random men in her room, fucking her senseless, not caring if they hurt her or not. Every part of her body hurt, but she couldn't let is show. She was just an object. She didn't feel pail or emotions. At least, not here.

Slowly, the girl sat up. She couldn't let him walk in and see her like this – weak. He would only punish her more. Not that it would effect her or anything. It didn't matter how much he hurt her, she would take it.

Her door opened, and he walked in. He, being Rei Serio, or better known to everyone else as Persona. None of the other girls knew his real name; he had some sick fascination with her calling his real name in bed. Persona has long, shaggy black hair and dark brown eyes that are almost black. He sat down on the bed beside her and gently brushed her long, auburn hair out of her face. He smiled, cupping her cheek. "Beautiful Mikan." He said kissing her temple. "Absolutely beautiful." He kissed her cheek, her jaw line, her neck, every inch of her down to her collar bone.

Mikan closed her eyes and shut them tight. She shivered at his touch. One hand slid down her back, down and around to her thigh. The other rest on her side. Persona didn't waste any time. He pushed Mikan against her bed, flipped her onto her stomach, and pulled down his pants. Without any warning, he trusted into her, over and over and over. Once he finished, he pulled out, kissed the back of her head and left.

This all started when Mikan was thirteen years old. She was kidnapped from her loving mother, father, and brother by this group, their leader being Persona. He threatened to kill her family if she didn't cooperate, so she did whatever he asked. She took whatever he gave her. She never ran from him no matter how bad things got to protect her family.

Three years have passed. She still has yet to go home. Yet to make contact with her family. Are they still alive? Do they even know she is alive? Do her parents miss her? Does her little brother remember who she is? He was so young when she left.

She asks herself these questions all the time.

Work is done for the night, so Mikan gets up out of the bed, exposing her tiny, pale, fragile figure. She has multiple bruises on her body, but Persona doesn't care. He charges extra for bruising his merchandise. And if he is the one to cause harm, he says it's just his mark.

And she's not the only one. There are twenty or so girls total in Persona's business. The girls aren't allowed to communicate with each other, or anyone for that matter, except on Sundays – and that is if they behave well. And even at that, they are watched very closely. Most of the girls have come to know one another because once a girl is there, she is not leaving. Ever. If there is a new face on a Sunday that has never been seen before, it means she's new. She's most likely frightened too. If a familiar face is missing, well.. that girl is missing.

Or dead.

Either way, she won't be seen every again.

But this was Mikan's life. She couldn't escape. And if she did, it wasn't like the other girls where if they ran away Persona would have them killed – and at this point, she only wished – but rather he would bring her back to this nightmare. Persona always told Mikan she was his favorite. She was the only one of the girls that he actually touched. She was his personally toy. Customers had to pay extra for Person's girl. Which was good, in the least best way possible. This meant she had less customers than all the other girls. But Persona had her almost everyday. And days when she had a customer, twice. To cleanse her from other man's touch.

This was her life for the last four years...but that was going to change.
