by C.R.Ochre
Everyone comes out obedient. She comes out awake. Every system has a cost. Owo, born to rule. Taken. From ruler to slave. Mistaken for someone else. Reserved by someone she does not know. She is chained in a line and marched into the depths. Seven lights. Everyone comes out obedient. She comes out awake. Standing out is death. Every breath is measured. Every smile rehearsed. The mask must stay on. The world before named her. The world after shaped her. Those who love her have already decided what she is for. She chooses. The girl who was built— Or the girl who breaks what built her. And the price she is willing to pay. Content warning: Contains gore, violence and references to sexual violence.
