No Trapped Land Without Love

Summary

They said the girl Sebastian was after this time had a long-term boyfriend who was struggling financially.

Sebastian didn't care. He took what he wanted, consequences be damned.

The girl fought like a cornered animal, refusing to yield.

The night he finally had her, fireworks lit up the sky over the ocean, a celebration that lasted until dawn. The next day, a river of expensive jewelry flowed to her family's doorstep as if it cost nothing.

Mrs. Gable, our housekeeper, told me all this when she came to deliver fresh clothes to me at the psychiatric hospital.
