Rafie: Okay, here's the real prologue. Enjoy!

Another scream came from the dark basement below.

I tossed and turned, unable to get away. The whip landed on my back again, creating another wound. I screamed again, unable to stop the tears from flowing down my face.

"You are my slave." Master Xaphan said, taking the hot engraver from the scorching fire. "Mine and only mine."

I shook my head furiously when he brought the engraver close to my chest.

"Please, Master, no… I promise I won't disobey you again." I pleaded desperately.

"You'd better make sure, slave." the engraver made contact with my chest and I screamed even louder.

I know, really short. But the first chapter's coming in a matter of minutes (maybe) so… stay? Just for a while?

Review please!
