The Fake Play That Murdered Me
749 Views · Ongoing · Daisy Swift
In this house, there was an unspoken rule: every time my adopted sister, Sloane, fed her gambling addiction at the casino, I was the one who had to take the punishment.
When Sloane racked up five thousand dollars in gambling debt, I was locked inside a sub-zero freezer overnight.
When Sloane stole and sold the family jewelry, my parents pinned my shoulders down while my husband ruined my face with a red-hot branding iron.
They claimed that only by seeing me suffer would Sloane feel guilty enough to finally quit gambling.
Until, in a desperate attempt to teach Sloane one final lesson, they hired someone to stage a fake mobster debt collection.
What they didn't know was that the prop gun bought off the black market was loaded with a real bullet.
And as the bullet ripped through my heart, my husband simply kicked my twitching body, laughing as he complimented how realistic my blood pack looked.
Warm blood clogged my windpipe. I lay paralyzed on the floor, my consciousness fading away.
This time, the chip wagered on Sloane's behalf was my life.
