“ Donc primping you useless thing ? Get in here and watch your brother a temale voice spat .

.

 

The scene lurched as Lyra jerked Elysia by her hair , balancing a toddler on her other hip .

Pain lanced through Elysia’s scalp , drawing a sharp gosp 

“ Sorry – 171 feed him right now , Elysia whispered , but submission dida save her 

Lyra’s boot caught Elysia square in the back as she turned toward the kitchen .

The force sent her sprawling 

Instinct brought her hands up to shield her face , though the rough ground still tore her palms raw .

I’m sorry , I’m sorry ” 

“ Seven years old and already protecting that face? Lyra’s lip curled in disgust .

“ Born a little whore , weren’t you ? ” 

The cruel words brought another shock to the viewers this wasn’t the same five – year – old they’d seen in the mirror .

Two years had passed in captivity .

 

Elysia touched her unmarked cheek .

“ Can’t let my face get scarred ,” she murmured .

Mom and Dad won’t know me ,” 

Her days blurred together – no school , just endless chores , Feeding the toddler , washing mountains of laundry , and sending livestock .

Even working until nightfall never satisfied her captors .

 

When Lyra returned so find her precious son crying , rage 

te twisted her features .

“ Worthless bra ! Can’t even keep him quiet ? I’ll beat the life from 

your 

Elysia’s dodge only managed Lyra further .

She grabbed a stick from nearby and wielded it against the girl .

 

Agony exploded through Elysia’s small frame .

“ Please – I’m sorry ! ” 

That night brought the usual punishment – the caile peu , au food , not even the meal she’d cooked herself .

When she lifted her shirt to examine the bruises , countless other scars mapped three years of sorment across her skin .

 

( This is straight – up torture ! Hey Elysia , aren’t you supposed to be the clever scheme ? Use that brain and get out of there , quick ) 

[ Damn , they’re stuffing that brat till he’s bursting while our Elysia – at seven – looks like a five – year – old ! To bell with these traffickers ! ] 

The memories blurred post – beatings , curses , confinement , Hack in the studio , even the stoic Torn trembled with fury at her suffering .

Only Fenwick and Caellan remained visibly indifferent their expressions blank .

To them , her suffering meant nothing .

 

She was no longer family , just an insignificant criminal who deserved their hostility .

They had long since stripped her of any right to their sympathy, regardless of past pain 

The stream moved forward in time .

One day came a new arrival – a pretty girl in fine clothes .

Elysa instinctively tucked her dirt – stained feet beneath her .

 

“ Were you kidnapped roo ? The newcomer radiated confidence .

Im Odessa Merri .

My dad’s loaded – he’ll pay whatever they want .

When I leave , you’re coming with me ! ” 

The chat exploded with recognition , the name triggering a flood of memories .

 

OMG wait – Odessa from Masked Singer ? That crazy – talented contestant who vanished before showing her face ! Ive been wondering about her for ages ] 

[ Oh wait , I know this ! The photo in her application materials – it’s the same girl we’re seeing on screen ! But why would she use a childhood photo ! ] 

[ Didn’t Elysia steal her songs ! The nerve , after Odessa tried helping her .

[ Remember that home – life reality show episode at the Dragons ? When Rowena gave her a chance to showcase her talent ? She just mimicked Odessa’s style .

Treated us like idioes .

In the studio , disgust flickered acruss Fenwick’s face .

He’d been right – Elysia was rotten to the core .

Sturing blood with her shamed him .

If only Rowena were his true sister .

 

But the scene continued .

Instead of joy .

Elysia kept her gaze down , voice barely a whisper .

Tm Elysia Drayton .

” 

“ We match ! I always wanted a sister .

He mine when we escaper Odessa said happily , pulling Elysia into an excited hug 

“ Don’t touch me Elysia whispered , the pressure aggravating yesterday’s bruises .

Chapter 6 

“ It hurts ” The second part died unspoken , choked back by biner experience – crying out only ever brought worse punishment .

 

The chat was filled with judgment , but vindication came swift .

 

Through the memory stream , Odessa tugged Elysia’s collar .

The oversized garment slipped , revealing a nightmare canvas of bruises .

Her scream echoed the viewers ‘ horror .

Not an inch remained unmarked – wels from sticks , sears from unknown forments .

 

I’d snap , too .

Grab a knife and end them all .

Retter death than this ] 

[ Show grathude – they raised her ten years ! ] 

Want to trade places ? ) 

In the stream , Lyra burst in after hearing the girl’s shriek , rod already swinging .

“ Shut that racket ! You woke my precious boy ! ” 

Odessa , sheltered all her life , ducked behind Elysia .

The blows fell – over a dozen , some catching Odessa despite Elysia’s shield .

 

Only the toddler’s wails drew Lyra away .

She hastily dropped her stick and muttered , “Two worthless brats ” 

“ Don’t cry , Odessa .

It’s okay ” Despite her own agony , Elysia comforted the other girl first 

The viewers noticed the cattle pen was no longer the filthy space from before – cleaner now , with a wooden platform holding faded bedding .

 

Seeing this younger , more wounded girl offering comfort humbled Odessa .

She dried her tears .

“ Are you badly hurt ? ” she asked softly .

“ Thank you .

Let my dad adopt you .

Be my real sister ?” 

Elysia shook her head .

“ I can’t be your sister .

I have parents and two brothers who love me .

They are still waiting for me to come back home .

” 

At the word “ home , such pure joy transformed Elysia’s face that she glowed like an angel in Odessa’s rear – filled eyes .

 

“ Then I’ll make sure you get back to them ! Odessa declared with berce resolve .
