“What the hell is this place? Why did you bring us here?”
“This is a little island off of Seychelles.”
“Where the hell is that?”
“The Indian Ocean, you dumb bitch.”
“Fuck you.”
She has been getting on my nerves for the last few days or however long we were locked in the belly of the ship to get here. No one would answer our questions, and we were made to stay below deck, locked away all day with no light other than the little window in the room that only scared the shit out of me because it was a direct view into the bottom of the sea.
Lacey was sick most of the time and expected me to take care of her, but I just ignored her ass the whole time. The only time we saw anyone else was at mealtime, and that person never answered any of our questions and I wasn’t even about to attempt rushing him because he was built like a tank.
Lacey tried being seductive, but I guess she didn’t know what she looked like after spending days in the hole. She smelled rank as fuck and looked like one flew over the cuckoo’s nest. I wasn’t faring much better, but I wasn’t the one making eyes at some strange man who acted like he didn’t even see us each time he came into that dark, clustered room.
There was a toilet but no shower, and we weren’t even given a bucket with water until the last day. It was humiliating but I had long given up on trying to feel human at this point. With the nausea gone, that bite was still hurting like a bitch, and I just wanted the ship to get to where the hell it was going so I could breathe fresh air again.
That brings us to now. The scenery was beautiful, I’m not gonna lie, but I didn’t trust anything at this point. I still didn’t know how the hell I even got on the ship. The last thing I remember is being asleep in my room and Mom coming in. I now know that that was not Mom but one of these people who had literally Shanghaied me in this day and age.
Lacey, in the midst of one of her rambling bitch fests, had claimed that she was given a ride from the hospital by who I’m sure she thought was another mark, only to find her ass on a boat going to who knows where.
As I said, the place was beautiful, but there were no houses as far as the eye could see, just some huts off in the distance and what looked like half-naked people milling about from place to place, not paying us any attention, which I found strange.
“Why did you bring us here?”
“This is going to be your home for at least five years.”
“What the fuck are you talking about?”
“Mr. Jacobi wanted me to tell you that with good behavior if you still want to, you can leave the island after five years is up.”
“You can’t do that.” Lacey started yelling and cussing, blaming me somehow for this shit that I knew nothing about. I, in turn, warned them, there were three of them, that I would kill her ass before they got back on the boat. They didn’t seem to care.
“You two might want to calm down and listen because your life might depend on it. The penalty for adultery or infidelity here is death. So you can decide now if you want to enter as a married couple, or if you want to meet someone here. You can also choose to remain single for the next five years, but if you’re caught having relations with anyone here, your life will be forfeit.”
What the fuck kind of bullshit is this? I can’t marry this bitch because I hate her more than words can say. I’m sure she doesn’t want to marry me either because she’s the only one on this island who knows that I have a small dick, something I am sure she’d be more than happy to share with the locals.
“I won’t marry him; I’d rather shoot myself.”
“Be my guest bitch. I doubt they have penicillin here. I’ll be sure to tell the locals about your disease-infested ass.” I was heated and was thinking of ways to get back on the boat without anyone noticing when one of the men walked away to meet one of the locals.
They exchanged words while looking back at us, and I felt the world spin. This can’t be real. This has got to be some kind of joke. How the fuck did I end up here just because I fucked this bitch? I glared at her with all the hate I felt and promised myself that the first chance I got, I was going to end her life.

Thank heaven, someone else sees what I see. I was feeling hopeless there for a while after talking to Garrett’s Mom. I can’t for the life of me understand how she could just accept that stranger into her family, but now I know from Sabrina that it was all for show.
Of course, I should’ve known that the family wouldn’t want a scandal, so they’d join ranks to show a united front. The fact that they hadn’t been cold to me when I visited should’ve been proof enough that they hadn’t forgotten me.
But the way they reacted when I mentioned my doubts about this girl and Garrett’s marriage made me doubt. Now, in the last few days, Sabrina and I have grown close, closer even than we had been in the past when I was dating her brother because back then, I just saw her as a brat who was always trying to take her brother’s attention away from me.
Who would’ve thought we would be here now, almost like sisters. She’d even taken an interest in my kid, which was for the best because if things go the way I expect, she’d soon be his aunt. I knew through her that Garrett was coming home soon and had drawn the conclusion that he was the one to send the message through her because the jealous bitch he had married had made him block me.
I can’t wait for her to get here so she can see how things really are. It’s good that she’s coming so she can see firsthand that she’s not one of us and will never be accepted by anyone.
