title: Grunt
author: Samuels, Kailee Reese
description: Six days.
  No one thought I could last
  Here in the cell—I now call home
  They didn’t know I grew up in the prison of my crime family’s dream.
  Six weeks.
  No one thought I could withstand
  The loss, the drugs, the torture
  They didn’t know how much I would enjoy their game.
  Six months.
  No one thought I could survive
  Their puppet and prey—but I like to play—
  Hard
  .
  And I don’t lose.
  They picked the wrong guy. Their so-called ‘grunt’ would fight to get home and take revenge. I vowed to come back—for her—for Kaci. But everything changed.
  My maniacal mind wrapped with a pretty mug, I am an unforgiving bastard, tough—tougher than they ever imagined.
  And I will never – ever – break.
