Chapter 1

The sound of the explosion was so loud followed by the screams of the frightened residents. The residents scattered to save themselves from something they never expected to happen.

"Run! Run quickly!"

The screams were mixed with the sound of gunfire and strange sounds coming from a strange creature.

In a village with dense forests, the abundant natural wealth is now under great threat due to the arrival of a spaceship that they often call an alien. The strange giant ball-shaped aircraft has landed on a hill in Flophi village. Not just one or two aircraft. From the foreign object emerged a small monster in the form of a half-animal, green and slimy.

In her escape, a woman fell after tripping over a rock. An alien came over to her.

"Don't," the woman groaned.

The monster had frog legs with a round body like a slimy green ball and had sharp, pointed teeth. When the monster drank blood, they would grow larger. The more blood they drank, the bigger they became.

Chaos was everywhere causing a lot of damage. Not only that, the large ball-shaped aircraft continued to land on Earth. As soon as the plane touched the ground, the door immediately opened and the creatures scattered and preyed on humans.

Across the way, people in uniform lined up watching the chaos displayed on the large television screen. A military officer in his special uniform turned off the screen. The horror that was seen made them tense.

"As you see on the screen. Your mission this time is to save the citizens and find the cause of the arrival of the creatures. Any of you who are cowards should retreat now rather than become a burden." The commander said firmly. His sharp gaze swept over the soldiers who were lined up.

No one answered, all were silent, aware that their task was something dangerous.

"Alright. You will leave in thirty minutes after preparation," said the man with the rank of one-star general.

"Ready!" they answered in unison in a loud voice.

"Alright. Disband."

All the lines dispersed, leaving only three people with the same uniform but with different ranks. The one-star general turned to a man who would lead his troops.

"Please make sure everything is safe, Commander Sean," said the general.

"Answer. Ready!" replied the man named Sean.

"Make sure you return safely," said the general again.

But this time only the two men's eyeballs moved. They were not sure to answer.

"Okay. You can go to prepare. See you in thirty minutes. I'll let you go," said the general.

The two men nodded.

A Morphile Nation military base was busy sending troops to help the residents in the area attacked by aliens. Not only Sean Edwin's team was appointed as the commander of the 5th battalion troops but also other troops ranging from the army, navy, and even the air force were all deployed.

On the other hand, medical soldiers were also prepared to help the residents and soldiers.

"Because you are one unit with the soldiers on the battlefield, so we are also deployed to that area. If anyone objects, stop now," said a female soldier in a firm and loud voice.

The woman's eagle eyes were fixed on several medical soldiers who would be assigned together.

"Okay. We will gather in the field in thirty minutes. You follow me, Victoria Della. The others disperse!"

“Ready!”

They dispersed except for one female soldier who remained there.

Victoria Della followed her superior who had just given instructions to the others to prepare. As medical soldiers, they needed longer and more thorough preparation, but the military always determined the time.

“Come in. General Ben is waiting for you inside,” said the woman who only accompanied Victoria to the front door.

Before leaving, the woman touched Victoria’s arm briefly and then left her there.

Victoria knocked on the door of a room until someone invited her in. In the room, there was not only one man but two other men whom Victoria recognized as superiors with star ranks.

“You’re here,” greeted one of the three men.

“Yes, sir,” Victoria replied.

“Yes. Please sit down. I have something to tell you,” said the man who was Victoria’s direct superior.

Following her superior, the girl sat down on one of the sofas.

“Victoria, your team will also be deployed to the field to help, right?” asked the man named Ben.

“Yes, sir.”

“Alright. I have a mission for you, only you can do it,” Ben said.

Victoria’s brow furrowed, but then said nothing more.

Ben invited one of the other men to convey the mission that Victoria would receive. However, the girl did not understand any of the explanations the man gave.

“The point is, you have to infiltrate the alien base. They said that on the alien ship that landed there was technology that was more advanced than humans. So, your mission is to retrieve that device,” Ben explained, taking over the conversation.

“But… I don’t understand,” Victoria admitted.

“You’ll understand once you get there. Anyway, this mission is only you who do it, and there will be someone to help you,” Ben said.

“Who?” the girl asked.

“You will know when the time comes to continue your mission. Enough until here, we expect victory. Good luck, Victoria.”

Although she still did not understand the purpose of the mission given to Victoria, the girl still left the place.

“Are aliens smarter than humans so that their technology is more advanced than ours? Oh, it doesn’t make sense,” the girl sighed.

However, there was no time to guess the purpose of the mission. Victoria had to immediately prepare and lead her troops.

There were many things they had to prepare as medical soldiers, not only weapons and medicines but also surgical equipment if needed in an emergency. They would be the support behind the soldiers standing on the front lines.

Victoria Della was a female medical soldier who had served in the military for five years. She was now thirty years old and had experience in the medical field before finally deciding to join the military because of her father.

Thirty minutes later they walked to the field. The soldiers were busy, regardless of whether they were assigned or not. However, as soldiers, their duty was to protect the country from foreign invasion and save the people who were victims.

The two troops met outside the building, walking towards the field in unison, wearing complete uniforms ranging from weapons, large bags, and berets on their heads as leaders.

"Who would have thought that this time you would be the one to accompany me on the battlefield," Sean said a little teasingly, Victoria who was walking beside him led her troops.

"Why? Are you disappointed because this time it's not Bella who accompanies you?" Victoria replied fiercely.

Sean did not return her sharp gaze which Victoria interpreted as her reply that was right on target.

"Gosh. You're too obvious, Commander. Should I ask Captain Bella to come replace me?" Victoria said again, still in her fierce tone.

"No. A harsh battlefield like this is more suitable for you, Captain Temptress. Besides, those aliens will submit to you, just like you made your troops submit," Sean replied.

This time it was Victoria who laughed in disbelief.

"I hope you can take care of yourself, Captain Temptress, and may your mission be a success," Sean said before the man took a different direction from Victoria who walked straight ahead while Sean turned right.

"Damn it!" Victoria cursed in annoyance.

Sean and Victoria had a long and infamous history on the military base. The two never got along. Every time they met, there was always a fight. In the three years they fought, no one managed to break them up. Sean even gave Victoria the nickname Captain Temptress which often annoyed the girl.

They were from different divisions but always met, whether by chance or not, and at every meeting they teased each other. Their colleagues had given up being mediators.

After receiving instructions, the deployed soldiers prepared to board military vehicles and leave. However, Sean and Victoria met again and the two stared at each other sharply.

"Let's see who can last until the end," Victoria said.

"You're so confident. Want to bet?" Sean replied.

"What?"

“Calm down. You’re too emotional like that, you’ll be the first victim,” Sean teased.

“Damn it. Shut your mouth. I won’t treat you if you get hurt,” Victoria replied, not wanting to lose.

“Who would want to be treated by you? There are still many medical personnel. Okay. See you at the location, Captain Temptress.” Sean turned around after saying that.

Victoria cursed again but this time only her lips moved.

If they continued arguing when they arrived at the location, what would happen? Words were prayers, what if what Sean said was the truth? Did they not care about each other?

Now, I'm ensnared in the grotesque reality of Naughty Nectar Farms (NNF), not a farm but a prison where shadows don’t just whisper—they scream with the horrors of the night.

My stepfather, blinded by greed, sold my freedom and my innocence to this nightmare. Here, I am nothing more than livestock, subjected to the twisted whims of those who see women as commodities to be bred, milked, and broken. But while they may have trapped my body, they can't imprison my will.

Each day, I hear the hushed, sinister talks of breeding and milking disguised as agricultural innovation. I see the cruel fate of my fellow captives, poked, prodded, and dehumanized. Yet in this lab of horrors, where humanity is stripped away, I hold onto one truth—they think I am weak, demure, broken. They are mistaken.

I am guilty of many things, but submission is not one of them. Here in the depths of despair, my fury simmers. I am plotting, waiting. For though they have taken much, my resolve grows with each passing day. I will lead us out of this darkness, or die trying. This is no ordinary farm, and I am no ordinary woman.
