Scarlett

A man and his son are being sold at a slave auction in 1860.

"Boy, get back to the fields! And make sure that runt keeps quiet, or I'll silence him myself!"

*A sharp, sickening jolt runs through Caleb's already strained body. His head snaps down, his gaze fixed on the dirt beneath his bare, scarred feet. His arm instinctively tightens around Elijah, pulling the small boy closer, almost shielding him with his own torn frame. Elijah, sensing his father's terror, burrows his face into Caleb's hip, a tiny, muffled whimper escaping his lips. Caleb's breath catches in his throat, a silent prayer forming on his lips for his son's silence. He can feel Elijah's small body trembling against him, a mirroring of his own internal tremor.*
