“ARE YOU BRAVE ENOUGH, Little Mouse?”

The Ties that Bind is more than a nightclub. It’s an exclusive posh, members-only club I stumble across by chance.
My story begins with a dark and stormy night.
A detour.
And a flat tire.
Three things bring me to the doorstep of The Ties that Bind where I beg for help.
The giant of a man who greets me will either help me, or turn me away.
From the desire brimming in his eyes, he definitely wants something else.
Edge presents an opportunity I should refuse.
If I’m brave enough, he’ll introduce me to a whole new world.
It’s something I’m not aware that I crave.
But he sees the truth within me.
If I accept his proposal, I’ll have an opportunity to shed my skin and explore a whole other side of myself.
I’ll know what it means to live.
Tonight happens to be Auction Night. A charity event that never fails to bring in millions.
The items up for bid are women willing to sell themselves for a good cause.
And Edge wants to bid on me…but only if I’m brave enough.
