Previously
Bette left the room and headed toward the slave quarters. It was quiet and very dark. As she got closer, she heard footsteps. When she turned around, she was met by a smack across her face.
Before she could figure out what had happened, she was forced behind a bush away from the path, an overseer’s hand across her mouth.
“If you scream, I will whip you!” he snarled.
Bette could smell the alcohol on his breath. And she could see the evil glint in his eyes. The man jerked up her dress as the tears rained down Bette’s face. Before he was able to get his pants unbuttoned, a pair of strong hands pulled him off of her.
Chapter 7
Michael pulled the man off of Bette and flung him to the ground.
“Bette, go back into the house!”
Bette laid there in shock. She was paralyzed; totally unaware of what was happening. The man got up and bum rushed Michael.
As they were rolling around, Constance observed everything from a distance and thought this was a good time to return to the house unseen. Her plan was ruined when Michael came out.
“Bette………..Bette, go in the house now!” he shouted.
Michael struggled with the man as Bette pulled her dress down, got up and ran into the kitchen. She ran straight to the corner, sat down and grabbed her knees to her chest.
Michael gained power over the drunken overseer. He grabbed the man by the neck and began to choke him.
“You listen good. You will NEVER touch her again! If you do, I will kill you with my BARE hands. Do you UNDERSTAND me?”
The bloody, drunken, badly beaten man couldn’t speak. Michael shook him.
“I was just having a little fun. Are you a nigger lover? Have you tried it yet?” the man asked.
Michael punched him in the mouth over and over. The sight of seeing him on Bette just made him outraged.
“If you touch her or any one of my slaves again, consider yourself gone. If you should even look at her again, I will make sure you will never work in this town again. Now, get out of my sight!”

You are indeed the queen of drama! I was really afraid of where this chapter was starting, but I’m even more anxious about where the next one will! Lots happened in this chapter, and there are so many ways you can take all of this. BTW, you’re a “challenging” patient, but leaving town was not on my list of options, baby! I understand that you need to do a lot of research to keep this true to the times, but I hope it doesn’t lengthen the time between posts! Just keep on telling this very deep and powerful story–you’re doing a great job!
I had hoped it was Michael that saved Bette. But wow. Constance was behind that?! Michael would have a shit fit if he found out. Hopefully nothing will happen to Melvin and the slaves.
Constance is the devil. hopefully Michael is going to help Melvin out.
How could a woman, a mother no less order some man to attack someone’s baby girl!! Constance is a disgrace!! It is so disturbing when we come across women being women’s worst enemies!! :( Succu, it is really noteworthy of you that you are doing so much reading and bring out what the life was during that time. Thanks you for all your efforts. The story so wonderfully written! I hope Melvin is safe for the sake of his family! Pls keep our girls safe!! PPVS :)
You’ve got me on the edge of my seat with this one. I was hoping it was Michael that would save Bette. Hopefully, he will soon see how Tina feels about her and will protect Bette and her family from the others. Constance is a b*tch! Just plain evil!! Please post as soon as you can. Can’t wait for more!!!
Constance is one cold bitch.
Incredible story!!!
I don’t like at all how this post ends… can’t see how Melvin can get out alive… and Michael won’t be able to accomplish a second miraculous intervention this time :-§ — Constance is a bitch, but no more than many slave owners : they just considered slaves as livestock cattle : she wanted to have her put to “breeding”, so that she begins to bear new slaves… I think the conversation between Michael and her will probably be “interesting”… and Tina should go back to her bed before her mother enters the room…
It sounds like Michael may be falling for Bette but the slaves’ safety is his priority. This is a very good story and I am finding it fascinating. Coming from a southern family who is appalled for the behavior of this time period, it is interesting to actually see it in print using two of my favorite characters in tv land.
Damn drama everywhere, thanks god michael is there to save Bette and Tina is there to take care of her! Hope Melvin is ok!
Hey Suc, I am sitting here is shock and revulsion at the recent events of this awesome tale. It is sad to realize that all of this occurred such a short time ago. The violent rape of young girls was commonplace. Good to see that Michael has such a modern approach and wants freedom for all his family’s slaves. Now, I am worried about Tina and Bette being in the same room all night as Constance obviously has plans to destroy Bette and her relationship with Tina. Only time will tell and you will tell how this all plays out.I really hope that the stranger in the woods is Michael and twice in one night he rescues his slaves. The tension is certainly ramping up as this story progresses. All down to your awesome talent. More please and many, many thanks for a well written and thought provoking tale. Your Loyal (if absent) Fan.
hey!!! I just finished reading all of the chapters of this story… and I was like, ok…where’s next chapter?? You have me hooked here, Succulent. Please continue with this story!!!
You should be proud of this story…it’s wonderful! Thanks!
I love your story. I hope I’ll be reading more of this soon. :) thanks for updating again
Wow! Succulent1, you have really made such an amazing job here! It is very realistic according to the times it is being developed, during the Civil War. Your subject is very challenging for a writer and the way you are unfolding it, is overwhelming. You have us in stitches with all the action that is being displayed everywhere. We’re hooked to the bone. PPS Your new fans -Lucero & Marsha (From Mexico City)
I think Michael’s “decency” would have more weight if he had not just had his own hands on Elizabeth, wanting to do the very same thing. How far would he have gone if she had not run out? I doubt it would have made alot of difference to Elizabeth who did it, if that happened to her. I can’t imagine why Constance would have tried to arrange her assault. It’s not like she would be “ruined” for marriage like a white girl. Just to be cruel? I hope Melvin gets through this situation and gets his own family away to safety.
