>>Valek (8 years old) A strange feeling of anxiety and fear took over me when I opened the door and found a crazy looking woman standing in front of me. “Don’t worry~, I won’t hurt you.” She whispered, “I promise,” She looked at me with a deranged look in her eyes. It was quite odd.  She promised me something when it was the very first time I met her.I found it quite strange.She was a woman I had never seen before in my life yet it seemed like she knew me. With her hair slightly messy and her mascara running down her cheeks probably because she cried or something, she looked at me like I was some sort of vermin when the words she uttere

>>Valek (11-14 years old) At eleven I learned I actually had a grandmother. A lady who was so sick of staying home she spent years traveling the world and barely got in contact with her family. The only reason she came back home was because she heard her only son had fallen sick.The first time I met her was when she came home straight from the airport with a line of servants following her with her butler being the most prominent among them. She had a graceful look that was accompanied by the look of disinterest. As she entered the house and began to walk towards her son’s room she stopped in the middle of the hallway all of the sudden. The servants behind her stopped as well but no one questioned her when she barely

>>Valek (14-15 years old) The whipping had a routine, when Risa wanted to she’d call me down in the basement room and when she was done, I’d go back to my room where Ains would be present to dress my wounds.The injury would leave me incapable of doing anything for a few days and I had to skip a lot of days from school.When my body could move, I would go to school but my interaction with people started to become non-existant. The people who used to talk to me backed off pretty easily since everyone knew I was a Vincenzo. No one wanted to get on my bad side and so the teachers also overlooked the fact that I wasn’t at school most of the time as long as I was giving the exams. Colors of life started to fade away. Everyth

>>Valek (16 years old) For some reason, everyone who made me promises, just wasn’t fulfilling them.The ones who would have, never made them.What the reason was for that, I don’t know but the fact stays there burned in my brain that people will always betray. In the end, you have to rely on yourself and take the kind of decisions you never thought you would but those decisions are the only ones that can get you out of your misery.May they be evil.May they change youMay they turn your whole life upside down. The time was near wh

>>Valek (16 years old) Each day the people in the mansion would look at me knowing full well I was behind what had happened to their madam but since they also knew what she did to me, none of them spoke about anything. Most of the people working at the mansion were grandmother's with only a few of Risa’s left, and they too were eventually fired and new servants were hired in their places. Their gazes of pity turned into fear and they started to avoid me even more. I guess they realized a new version of me had awakened and it was someone to be feared. No one would come to me anymore to give me food except  Ains, the personal butler of grandmother. Ains was a kind soul, who had somehow stuck close to grandmot
