Chapter 1: The Bitter Departure
Daша stormed out of her marital home, her sharp tongue still stinging from the venomous spat with her husband. At 26, she was a firecracker, her curves as dangerous as her wit, and she wasn’t about to let any man dictate her worth. Her parents’ house was a reluctant refuge, a place where judgment hung heavier than the dusty curtains. Her mother’s voice sliced through the air the moment she crossed the threshold.
'Dasha, we told you he was no good! A lazy, spineless excuse for a man. Why didn’t you listen?' Her mother’s eyes were daggers, her tone a whip. Dasha rolled her eyes, tossing her dark hair defiantly.
'Oh, spare me the sermon, Mama. I didn’t come here for a lecture. I came for peace,' she snapped, dropping her bag with a thud. Her younger sister, 20-year-old Lena, peeked from the hallway, her innocent eyes wide with curiosity, while her older sister, 35-year-old Marina, leaned against the doorway, arms crossed, a smirk playing on her lips.
'Peace? In this house? Good luck with that, little sister. You’ve stirred up enough drama to last a lifetime,' Marina quipped, her voice dripping with sardonic amusement. She was the iron fist of the family, always ready to take charge, her presence commanding and unyielding. Dasha shot her a glare.
'If I wanted your opinion, Marina, I’d have asked for it. Keep your nose out of my mess,' she retorted, brushing past her to collapse on the worn-out couch. But the tension in the air was palpable, a storm brewing beneath the surface of their familial ties.
Days bled into weeks, and the atmosphere grew heavier when their father fell gravely ill. The family hovered in a state of quiet panic until a local mullah arrived, his presence both revered and unsettling. His words, delivered in a low, gravelly tone, struck like lightning.
'There is a cure, but it is unconventional. Your father needs release—physical, primal. It will restore his vitality,' the mullah declared, his eyes flickering with something unreadable. The room fell silent, shock rendering them speechless. Dasha’s stomach churned, her mind racing with disgust and disbelief.
'What the hell are you talking about? That’s insane!' she exploded, standing up, her hands clenched into fists. Marina, however, tilted her head, her expression calculating.
'Insane or not, if it saves Papa, we listen. You’ve had your fun, Dasha. You’re no virgin. This falls on you,' Marina said coldly, her words cutting deep. Lena looked away, cheeks flaming, too young and untouched to even grasp the weight of the suggestion.
'Are you out of your mind? I’m not some sacrificial lamb! I won’t—' Dasha’s protest was cut off by Marina’s steely grip on her arm.
'You will. Because if you don’t, you’re signing his death warrant. Don’t be selfish for once in your life,' Marina hissed, her eyes boring into Dasha’s. The room seemed to close in, the weight of expectation suffocating. Dasha’s defiance wavered, her heart pounding with a mix of rage and dread.
That night, in the dim light of her father’s room, Dasha stood at the edge of a line she never thought she’d cross. Her hands trembled as she approached, her mind screaming to run, but Marina’s words echoed louder. She knelt, her breath hitching, the air thick with unspoken shame. As her lips parted, a wave of revulsion mixed with a strange, forbidden heat began to stir within her. She hated herself for it, but her body betrayed her, a spark of unwanted desire igniting as she heard his low groan. The door creaked slightly—Marina watching, ensuring compliance, her gaze as hard as stone.
This was only the beginning.
