Wings of Broken Time by Alina Das 575
At the Luminary Arts Centre, Trudy was giving Honora a tour, explaining the business.
“For this month, your task is to recruit two new girls. They need to be young and beautiful, preferably from outside Regal City. Focus on finding girls from small towns; they’re easier to
mold.”
“Girls from those places are usually naive. A taste of the high life is enough to make them lose their bearings, which makes them easy to recruit.”
“Understood, Trudy,” Honora replied.
“Mr. Lincoln entrusted you to me, which means he has high expectations. Don’t disappoint him,” Trudy added.
The thought of getting her revenge on Larissa fueled Honora’s determination. “I won’t!”
Just then, a trainer hurried over on her high heels and whispered in Trudy’s ear, “Trudy, the girl you were most invested in slipped away when no one was looking.”
Trudy’s face darkened, her eyes flashing with murderous intent. “Honora, you get to work on what I told you. I have something to take care of.”
Without waiting for a reply, she followed the trainer out.
In the garage, Trudy got into her car and lit a cigarette. “That little bitch. I fed her, clothed her, and spent a fortune turning her into a woman men would kill for, and she dares to run away
from me!”
“When we catch her, drug her and let the men have her!”
“Understood.”
The car quickly caught up to the runaway woman, who had fled into a dilapidated old neighborhood.
Trudy stormed out of the car, threw her cigarette to the ground, and slapped the woman across her beautiful face.
“You bitch! Did you really think you could escape? Do you have any idea who you are? Serving those powerful men is a blessing for someone like you!”
The woman fell but showed no fear. She looked up and laughed manically. “A blessing? Why don’t you take it for yourself then?”
Trudy grabbed the woman by her hair. “You dare talk back to me? If I hadn’t invested so much money in you, I’d kill you right here and now!”
Suddenly, a car screeched to a halt beside them. A stern–faced man got out of a Mercedes.

The woman, still in Trudy’s grasp, smiled. “You’ve ruined so many innocent girls, you venomous witch. Your time is up!”
Trudy frowned and turned to face the man, unafraid. “So you ran out here on purpose, waiting. for this man to save you?”
She shoved the woman against a wall and faced him directly. “Do you have any idea who I am and who I work for?”
Crispin didn’t answer. He signaled for his two bodyguards to handle Trudy’s thugs while he advanced.
Trudy was a trained fighter and could handle most men. Seeing he wasn’t backing down, she lunged at him. But with a single move, he caught her fist and snapped it.
“Ah!” Trudy screamed as a punch landed on her face, knocking out her two gold teeth and filling her mouth with blood.
“Take these three away,” Crispin ordered, then looked at the escaped woman. “Come with me. I’ll arrange for you to be sent home.”
The woman shook her head. “I don’t have a home… I ran away from home, which is how this vile woman tricked me.”
Crispin was silent for a moment. “I’ll arrange a job for you, but you can’t stay in Regal City. It’s not safe for
you here.”
The woman nodded gratefully. “Okay. Thank you.”
After work, Larissa sat at her desk, carefully organized Rigby’s file, and put it in her bag.
