Cuban King by P. A. Thomas

It started in 1852, the head of the Pastor family stated that he would give the first girl in the family to the Lopez family as a way to pay the poker game debt. He’d ran out of money, and was desperate to make-up his loss.Valentin Pastor didn’t think he would lose. He’d never lost a poker game. Or so we were told, but that night something strange happened, and he lost. Since, that night, the Pastor family have been giving their first-born daughters to the Lopez family.What did they do with them?No one knew. There were rumors, gossip about what happened to them, but no one knew the truth. That was until five decades ago when no daughter had been born, only boys. Now, a girl has been born, and she’s turning eighteen and the head of the Lopez family has come to collect.
