The arrival of a new inmate at the women’s prison aroused the curiosity of almost everyone.
From the very first moment, she attracted attention. Her arms, neck, and even part of her chest were covered in tattoos. She barely spoke to anyone, avoided eye contact, and preferred to remain isolated.
In prison, rumors spread quickly, especially when a new face appeared. However, that woman gave no cause for gossip. She obeyed the guards’ orders without complaint and never interfered in other people’s affairs.
Even so, there was one rule that every newcomer learned very soon.
There was one prey that they all feared.
Her name was Vanessa.
When she appeared, the atmosphere changed instantly. Many lowered their heads and tried to get out of her way.
She was an imposing woman: almost two meters tall, with an enormous build and extraordinary strength. It was said that a single blow from her was enough to knock anyone unconscious.
Over the years, she had turned the lives of many inmates into a living hell.
Some were washing their clothes.
Others were cleaning their cell.
Many gave him part of their food.
And there were those who did the most unpleasant jobs just for fear of saying no.
Anyone who dared to challenge her ended up paying a very high price.
Vanessa enjoyed humiliating the others in front of the entire prison and never missed an opportunity to remind everyone who was in charge there.
That’s why almost no one dared to contradict him.
For several days the new inmate went completely unnoticed by her.
But everything changed at lunchtime.
The dining hall was almost full. The inmates occupied the long metal tables while conversing in low voices.
The newcomer ate alone, sitting in a corner, with absolute tranquility.
That’s when Vanessa noticed her.
He watched her for a few seconds from the other end of the dining room. Then he smiled arrogantly and walked slowly toward his table.
The conversations began to die down.
Many already knew what was going to happen.
Some even stopped eating.
When Vanessa chose a new victim, no one expected a happy ending.
Upon reaching the table, he turned his gaze to the girl’s tray.
—Hey… give me your food.
The young woman looked up with complete serenity.
—This is my lunch. If you’re hungry, find yours.
The inmates closest to her exchanged incredulous glances.
They had never heard anyone answer Vanessa like that.
But the stranger remained completely calm.
Vanessa narrowed her eyes.
—I’m still hungry. Give it to me. You’ll survive a day without food.
-No.
The response was firm and calm.
Fearless.
