She wore black heels, posing like she was in a magazine getting her pictures taking. My insides started to curl in disgust while I forced the insults back down my throat.

“How many?” Even though the answer was pretty obvious, it was mandatory that we asked.

Captivity tales were common with readers in the late 17th and early 18th centuries.…
