"Addison you have to hurry, there coming at any moment." Her mother announces. Addison didn't really have everything figured out just yet.

Slowly, a stern knock came into their door. Her mother walked quickly towards the wooden door and opened it too see four men dressed down in expensive-looking suits.

"We're here for Addison Knight." One spoke while looking into the house. "Addi, baby come here." Her mother cries out to her.

Addison, only being 18, didn't know that in this society, every woman has to be sold off and married to work for her soon to be husband that the government picks for them. Like her mom, when she was sixteen years old, she was sent off to live with her now husband of twenty plus years and together they've made two special kids, Addison being the oldest and their son Jody.

To even make this official, her parents were forced to sign a contract stating that whoever she is to live with she must abided by their rules and they can't do anything about it. After they've signed, her family began to hold her tightly crying together before letting her go. Two of the men went first while keeping Addison in the middle of all four. She sat in between two while facing the others and her journey began from here.

On the way to Gantrick, Addison saw plenty of different things she never before saw because of her parents. They knew that if at an early age, with Addison's good looking genes they've probably would have token her at a younger age.

Gantrick, too many, was a different universal; planet like world. All her parents wanted was a better life for their kids, but that didn't happen. The government back at Findara, we're the Knights' live is way worse. But not as bad as Gantrick.

Pulling up to the biggest house she's ever laid eyes on. She took a look at her self before hopping out of the car. She felt underdressed with only a small sweater and jeans and some boots that she had from last year.

Following behind the men, she felt really nervous and anxious to find out what was going on. She waited as they opened the door and lead her into the house. Walking in, she didn't want to mess up the marble floors because they looked so shiny and she never has seen anything so beautiful like this in her life.

The men instructed her to sit and wait for the owner to get back so he could give her his rules and regulations to his home. Twenty minutes had passed and she was feeling very uneasy because of all the cameras she spotted and the men kept checking up on her every five minutes. She wanted to go back home because she missed her family so much in the matter of time.

The front door opened and Addison readjusted herself on the green sofa. Opening the door stood a tall, tan looking guy with dark brown eyes and curly brown hair that fell onto his face. He was dressed down in the same expensive black suit like the rest of the men she saw.

He walked in, taking his coat off and giving it to the man at the door. Addison couldn't understand why, but she knew that back at home no one would even have that much respect for a female in Findara, because males were the only ones they've respected, and she thought it wasn't right.

"You." He called out to Addison. "Come, now." He instructed her to do. She slowly crept up off the comfortable sofa and followed upstairs into an office. Loving the door behind him, he told her to sit in one of the white chairs as he made his way around the big wooden desk.

"As you may know, this is where you'll be living until further notice." He told her. She noises in advance.

"I have some rules that needs to be followed and your the one that's going to do them, do you understand?" He asked her.

Slowly catching her breath, she answered a simple,"yes". She knew that this wasn't going to be fun at all, and that this is the life her parents wanted to keep her away from.

"My rules here are very simple... so lets began." He smiled slightly. "One, you'll have to make sure that breakfast, lunch, dinner, and supper is made. Two, make sure you keep everything organized as well as your room, my room, and my offices. Three, please don't try anything stupid that would get you killed, okay." He asked her.

"I understand." Was all she could say. After that conversation, one of the housekeepers showed her to her room. It was very unique in its in way. A big king size bed with white covers. The walls were gray and light blue. And the decor was with painting of modern history and a small vintage radio and a televisions hooked up into the wall.

She didn't think she would have a room like this. Compared to what she had, which was a tiny bed which her and her little brother shared a room. Since he was younger he slept on the floor whit covers made as a bed. And for their television it was a tiny one.

She felt very out of place considered that her family is suffering from losing their only daughter. She felt very intrigued by the fact that women are not even to be compared to men, yet in her eyes she felt like this was the biggest room for her that he have given her.

She wanted to know what it felt like being most powerful creature there was. And under any circumstances she was willing to conquer them all and find out.

For supper, I cooked some chicken alfredo lasagna rolls and some butter biscuits. I set the table and placed five plates down. Because all I've seen today were those four buff guys and the owner of the house whose name I still yet to figure out. I didn't know if they would like it. I tried to cook like mother cooked and also tried to copy her homemade lemonade.

I started to pass the plates around and realized that there's more of them I started to get very freighted due to the fact that I can get in trouble and my parents are not her to defend me.

There were two men that didn't even have anything to eat. And the look in their eyes, looked like they wanted to kill me if they've could. I told them I'll make something quick up for them, but they decide against it and whispered in some other language to the owner.

After I'm guessing that they have said something not so nice, I was ordered to go to my room for the night and go to sleep. I was kind of confused as to why he didn't make a big fuss over it. That eventually calmed my nervous and I fell asleep.
