Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

Millie whispered, "Got anything to eat?"

The woman gave a soft chuckle, sizing her up before saying, "Come on in."

Millie lifted her gaze to the neon sign - Frostbite Club.

She knew what she was getting into, but driven by hunger, exhaustion, and a longing for a taste of the high life, she followed the woman through the door... She needed to survive.

Only by surviving could she get her revenge on Murray and Roseanne!

...

But reality gave Millie a harsh lesson. Earning money wasn't as easy as she'd imagined.

Thanks to her good looks, she was hired on the spot.

The Frostbite Club offered her free food and a place to stay, and that night, Millie finally got a good night's sleep.

The next night, she slipped into a revealing mini skirt and was led by the so-called "floor manager" to a private booth. The door shut behind them.

The soundproofing was so effective that not a whisper escaped.

When the door opened again, Millie staggered out.

Her skirt was torn to shreds, her high heels gone, leaving her in just her underwear.

Marks of varying depths covered her chest, thighs, side waist, and neck, some still oozing blood.

Her eyes were swollen from crying, her voice hoarse from screaming, clutching a stack of bills tightly in her arms.
