Chapter 1

Rebeca was forced down into the hold and forced to lay down. the boy who had brought her down put the chains on her as she sat motionless. Her husband had sold her. a single tear crept out from under her eye lids. she couldn't even wipe the tear away.

~Over the next couple of months she didnt have her courses and grimaced when she knew why. she had been humiliated many times. there was a cry above "Land!!!" ~

John smiled as he saw the ship being tied down in the port. he stepped aside as a man came running past. Then he pulled out some money. he frowned he only had enough money to buy one slave. he stopped being lost in his thoughts when he looked up. They were unloading all the slaves first the woman. he stared into each of their faces. then did a double take, the most beautiful woman walked by in chains. her hands wrapped around herself. he smiled he would buy her. he walked up to the boy holding her chains. "i would like to buy her..how much?"
The boy smiled his teeth rotten and decaying. "2 pounds sir..." John pondered if he could pay it. "okay..." he handed over the bag of money. He took the chains off the woman and pointed to himself. "john.." he pointed to her.

But as she neared the manision door all these men and woman came out who were her color. she smiled and rushed toward the woman. "oh thank God!! woman i can talk to..why is the master not angry?"
One of the girls shrugged."we are all free but most of us choose to stay and work for free for him. i am to teach with his help how to speak english..." Rebeca looked back at the man named John who was talking to another black man. He was good to look at and was kind. "maybe i will like it here.." rebeca said to the girl named mary.
John walked toward them smiling "mary..please help Rebeca wash up and find a good dress.." after saying that he left to walk with the black man. Rebeca walked into the house holding mary's hand as she led her up to the second floor. "all us woman live up here rebeca.." Rebeca nodded then when mary left she changed ino the clean and dress and grimaced she was into her pregnancy far enough now that there was a slight bump. Rebeca was frustrated.

She stepped closer there was commpassion in his eyes. when she got close eough he dropped his hand to her belly. She went to move back but he had wound his other arm around her back pulling her to him. she stared up at him with big brown eyes. His eyes were darkening but he was not angry.

John watched her go and sighed as he mentally hit himself on the head. "what has gotten into you!?!?" he walked off toward his study.
a servant came in awhile later and told him something was going on outside. John rushed to find out and fix the problem. his jaw dropped. Two of his men servants were duking it out. John walked over to where rebeca was yelling at them to stop. "i suspect rebeca..you know why they are fighting?" rebeca nodded. "the rude man in blue asked me to bed with him and i said no..he kept persisting ..so reuben..in the yellow...pulled him away...the man in blue punched him first and started toward me again...so..reuben fought him..as you can see..." she ruffled her dress. john huffed before swiping a hand over his eyes."Enough! stop this minute , Names! i want names!
