Introduction

"Eu te amei desde o primeiro momento em que pus os olhos no seu rosto lindo." A próxima coisa que ele diz deixa todos completamente perplexos.

"Meu lobo sabia que você era dele, isso foi logo após meu décimo sexto aniversário, ele te quis desde o momento em que soube que você era destinada a nós, mas eu quis que você fosse minha desde a primeira vez que brincamos no recreio no jardim de infância, você me daria a honra de ser minha esposa e não apenas minha companheira?"

Chapter 1

Fico paralisada na beira da sala de estar, invisível para os três homens que cercam meus pais, que são forçados a se ajoelhar por dois dos homens, que mais parecem troncos de árvores do que seres humanos. Não consigo desviar o olhar da cena horrível que se desenrola diante dos meus olhos, há uma pressão preenchendo o ambiente que torna incrivelmente difícil se mover ou até mesmo respirar.

"Diga-nos onde está a criança, e eu prometo dar a vocês uma morte rápida e indolor. Recusem, e eu prolongarei, garantindo torturar vocês lenta e dolorosamente na frente um do outro, até me dizerem onde está o pirralho." Um dos homens, que é um pouco menos musculoso e muito mais magro que os outros dois, rosna para meus pais, que apenas o encaram desafiadoramente.

"Vai se foder!" Meu pai cospe venenosamente no homem. "Nunca daremos qualquer tipo de informação sobre nosso filho. Se você planeja nos matar, é melhor acabar logo com isso, porque não importa a quantidade de tortura que nos faça passar, nenhum de nós entregará nosso filho."

Fico enraizada no lugar onde estou. Lágrimas caem incessantemente pelas minhas bochechas, percebendo que eu sou a criança a que eles se referem. Começo a caminhar em direção ao homem que está ameaçando meus pais, na esperança de possivelmente salvar suas vidas, quando minha mãe me olha e balança a cabeça sutilmente para mim, uma exigência silenciosa que diz "nem pense em entrar aqui". Meus olhos se arregalam quando o homem recebe uma espada larga, a lâmina parece ter sido afiada e polida recentemente, possivelmente para esta ocasião. Ela murmura "CORRA" enquanto a lâmina do homem faz contato com suas gargantas e eu me viro para fugir da sala.

A memória do assassinato dos meus pais passa vividamente diante dos meus olhos, em rápida sucessão, as imagens se movendo tão rápido que começam a se misturar, me deixando tonta e desorientada. A sensação de alguém esfregando pequenos círculos reconfortantes nas minhas costas me tira da memória-sonho, há algo sendo dito, mas meus ouvidos estão zumbindo tão alto que parece que alguém está tentando falar com a boca cheia de água. A luz começa a diminuir, enquanto as palavras se tornam um pouco mais claras.

"Falencia, você está segura, querida; está tudo bem, volte." diz a voz feminina suave e reconfortante.

Começo a me mexer enquanto as palavras tranquilizadoras e os círculos reconfortantes sendo esfregados nas minhas costas começam a acalmar minha mente frenética. Sento-me enquanto observo meu entorno, percebendo que não estou mais na cama, mas sim no chão do meu quarto no apartamento onde tenho vivido desde aquela noite fatídica. "O que aconteceu?" pergunto, sentindo-me um pouco confusa e desorientada.

"Eu ouvi você gritando, então vim ver como você estava e, quando entrei, você estava tentando sair pela janela." Berik explica. "Consegui afastá-la da janela e sentá-la com segurança no chão."

Eu gemo. "Honestamente, pensei que esses episódios, ou seja lá o que forem, tivessem parado. Não tive um há muito tempo."

Berik me abraça, continuando a esfregar minhas costas de forma reconfortante. "Eu gostaria de ter respostas para você, querida. Você já falou com sua terapeuta sobre esses episódios? Sei que não acontecem há muito tempo, mas talvez ela tenha algumas respostas que possam ser úteis agora?"

Eu balanço a cabeça. "Honestamente, ela disse que poderiam ser manifestações de como me senti abandonada quando meus pais morreram. Não acredito necessariamente que isso seja verdade, acho que ela é uma charlatã que está apenas falando besteiras para parecer que sabe do que está falando."

Berik inclina a cabeça para o lado, como se estivesse tentando me estudar. "Achei que você gostava da Sarah?"

Eu suspiro. "Não é que eu não goste dela, é só que, honestamente, não sei se acredito no 'poder' da terapia. Não acho que ela tenha a menor ideia do porquê estou tendo esses sonhos ou seja lá o que forem, se estou sendo cem por cento sincera."

Começo a me levantar do chão quando Freyja entra no meu quarto. "Está tudo bem? Achei que ouvi gritos." Ela pergunta enquanto se apoia sonolenta na porta aberta.

Berik e eu olhamos para ela e acenamos com a cabeça. "Sim, só mais um pesadelo," respondi.

A preocupação enche seus olhos verdes brilhantes enquanto ela se senta na minha cama, batendo no espaço ao lado dela, me chamando para sentar com ela. "Você está bem?"

Aceno com a cabeça. "Sim, só não entendo por que eles estão voltando, aparentemente do nada."

"Quando é sua próxima consulta com a Sarah?" Freyja pergunta.

Meu maxilar se aperta enquanto eu trituro os dentes de irritação. "Amanhã depois da escola, mas honestamente não sei se quero ir."

"Por que não? Pode te ajudar a descobrir por que os pesadelos estão voltando," Freyja pergunta.

Suspiro e me sento ao lado dela com as costas contra a cabeceira da cama. "Pelo jeito que ela explicou antes, são manifestações de como estou me sentindo, basicamente que me sinto abandonada, os sonhos são uma forma de expressar as emoções que senti e que ainda posso sentir periodicamente." Cubro a boca enquanto um bocejo escapa. "Honestamente, não sei se confio completamente nela ou não, acredito que psiquiatras são apenas traficantes legais que só se importam em empurrar seus produtos para os clientes em vez de realmente ajudá-los a lidar e se curar de qualquer trauma que possam estar passando."

Freyja dá uma risadinha enquanto tenta conter o riso e Berik morde o lábio sorrindo. "Acho que nunca ouvi você explicar seus pensamentos sobre terapia dessa forma antes. Mas achei que estava ajudando?"

"Talvez no começo, mas depois eu tentava explicar meus sentimentos sobre diferentes coisas, ela me perguntava como isso me fazia sentir, honestamente parece que ela está sendo condescendente; o tom de voz dela é apenas, não sei como explicar, me faz sentir arrepios na pele," digo.

"Vou fazer um chocolate quente, você quer o original ou caramelo salgado?" Berik pergunta.

"Caramelo salgado, por favor!" Freyja e eu respondemos em uníssono.

Berik ri enquanto sai do meu quarto e vai em direção à cozinha para fazer nosso chocolate quente.

"Você acha que talvez queira tirar o dia de amanhã?" Freyja pergunta.

Respiro fundo e me centro. "Não, acho que vou ficar bem. Não quero ter que faltar um dia se não for absolutamente necessário. Mas acho que preciso encontrar uma maneira de lidar com o trauma em vez de empurrá-lo para baixo e ignorá-lo enquanto faço o que preciso para me ocupar."

Berik volta ao quarto com nossas canecas fumegantes. "Ouvi alguém dizer que vai tirar um dia de folga?"

Freyja e eu rimos enquanto balanço a cabeça. "Desculpe, mas não."

"Bem, se você decidir que realmente precisa tirar um dia de folga, me avise e eu ligo para a escola para avisar," Berik diz.

Todos nós rimos sabendo que é improvável que isso aconteça enquanto Freyja e eu pegamos nossas canecas quentes. "Obrigada pelo chocolate quente!" exclamo antes de soprar o líquido marrom claro que cheira absolutamente divino.

"De nada, querida," Berik responde.

Pego meu celular na mesa de cabeceira e verifico a hora. São 1:30 da manhã, suspiro e tomo um pequeno gole da minha bebida, apreciando a sensação do líquido quente descendo pela minha garganta e se acomodando no meu estômago, desfazendo os nós que se formaram lá durante meu pesadelo. Me acomodo confortavelmente contra a cabeceira enquanto coloco o celular de volta na mesa de cabeceira. "Acho que deveríamos tentar dormir mais um pouco, já que temos pouco mais de cinco horas antes de precisarmos levantar."

Freyja pega meu celular e verifica a hora, gemendo enquanto o coloca de volta. "Droga, graças aos Deuses que amanhã é dia do pijama, então não preciso acordar tão cedo."

Berik e eu rimos de suas travessuras enquanto acenamos em concordância. Freyja se levanta do seu lugar na minha cama e se espreguiça, levantando a caneca cuidadosamente acima da cabeça para não derramar nenhum do líquido quente que balança em sua xícara. Elas saem do meu quarto e fecham a porta atrás delas, me deixando sozinha para me acomodar na minha cama confortável, adormecendo assim que meus olhos se fecham; me envolvendo em escuridão e silêncio.

Hucow: Naughty Nectar Farms

Ongoing · Harley Steele
From the dark imagination of Harley Steele, a chilling story unfolds—a frightful tale of twisted horrors.

Hey, my name's Alice, and my boyfriend's name is... Yeah, no, we're not doing that song and dance. Naw. Once upon a time, I was just another girl hoping for a simple life after high school. 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.
