Cursed (R 18+)

A/N: EXTREME TRIGGER WARNING!

This chapter was one of the worst ones I've had to write. From the beginning, I had Grace's backstory fleshed out. But I did not expect just how difficult it was to write it when it came time to do so. As an inexperienced writer, I have to mentally inhabit my characters to elicit realistic responses and emotions and translate them into words. In writing this chapter, I had to take frequent breaks because it was just too... disgusting.

Needless to say, I am absolutely against and abhor child sexual abuse! Those that do it are the worst of the worst. What is even worse is the process of grooming, which is when the abuser conditions the victim from an early age.
