Oh my. Poor little thing. It has always amazed me that men think they have the right to do these things. Glad Alejandro came to see her and wants to take care of her. She needs that.

It's heartbreaking, isn't it, that little children are taken and destroyed like this, they don't get to be a child and play. I'm so pleased Alejandro loves her and sees the lovely person Anna is. This is a wonderful, well written chapter, Misty. :)) Sandra xx

I'm glad Anna got a second chance. She deserves to have someone to love her and help her heal. She probably is broken, but Alejandro might be able to help her. She hasn't done anything wrong. She was just a kid, and she had no choice.

    Thank you so much for such a sweet review. You're right, she didn't have a choice. It did leave her very broken, empty inside. Alejandro will be her saving grace.

The more you hear her story the more heartache you feel. However, you begin to see how strong she really is. Not many could go through what she did and come out functioning on the other side. She took control of her life and worked hard to make changes. I can feel that in her.

This is nicely written. May be fiction but can be true to life. Everyone deserves a chance mistakes you make in life doesn't define who you are. Well done. Nice photo.

    Thank you so much for reading my chapter. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Anna is fiction, but her encounters are from child trafficked survivors. I'm glad the point came across so strongly. I'm hoping his statement might change the direction of someone's life. I'm hoping the book will raise awareness, save a child from having to endure such a horrid fate. Maybe help a survivor.
    Thank you again for reading my chapter. Your support is always appreciated, take care.

Hello Mistydawn.

The story is tragedy intertwined with a love story which is a bit of an unusual twist. It demonstrates the inhumanity of many to treat people like something less than human.

It's good that Anna has found Alejandro. He could be the one thing that saves her life in more ways than one.

    Thank you so much for reading my chapter. It is a bit of a twist, but it might work, right? Depending on how it's written? I'm hoping to show the personal damage it does. Why so many turn to drugs or commit suicide. What do you think?

    Hello Mistydawn.

    I think you could turn the story to show a successful recovery from the awful circumstances Anna was thrown into. Focus on the relationship between the two and use that avenue for "fleshing" out the emotions that you want to show. Use the story to show how she can have her esteem restored.

One can understand why Anna feels the way she does, I've felt that same sense of helplessness myself, but it's not based on anything that makes any sense, just what one feels. But feelings betray us, because they're no reality anyway. Beautifully written my friend, blessings Roy

Hi Misty, that is a beautifully written chapter. I do hope Alejandro is sincere and will live up to his words. So far it looks like it. She's been through so much ugliness in her life, and what she's just gone through is the worst of worst. Ulla:)))

This account brings out the long term damage abuse has. It clearly causes PTSD but there is victim blaming that her was doing a bit of, but caught himself. The reader who understands with will be caught up with the characters. The reader will want to say, "No you are beautiful." There might be some healing that comes from people reading this. I am including the link from my webpage:

    Thank you so much for such an encouraging review. I'm hoping I can show her pain, inner struggles, the roller coaster of emotions that goes with it. If it helps someone heal that'll be a big plus. I can see where your webpage can be helpful Thank you for sharing it with me.
