History:
Anastasia Marie Valentino was born to Cecilia Markusowicz and Donny Valentino. They had a forbidden romance. Cecilia being a rich Jewish girl who already had a fiancee and Donny being the Italian son of a butcher. Cecilia's parents already had arranged for her to marry a charming Jewish doctor, who Cecilia was content with but didn't love. Cecilia met Donny while at a party and the rest was history. Because Cecilia's parents refused to accept their relationship she and Donny eloped, four months later she was pregnant with Anastasia.

When Stacy was three her dad got diagnosed with lung cancer, he died the next year. Her mom, who never got a college degree and never had a job a day in her life couldn't provide for them. When she was five her mom took her on a trip to the zoo, when they came home she said she was going to go get milk, she never came back. When neighbors found out that she abandoned her they called social services. When she was six she was adopted by a woman named Erica and her boyfriend Tommy who couldn't have kids. But Tommy cheated on Erica constantly and was never home. Erica tried to love her but was bitter since she hadn't given birth to her and Tommy always referred to her as "That girl,". When Tommy got drunk he became abusive, one day, when she was eight, he slapped Stacy knocking her into a glass table which gave her multiple cuts and bruises. When Erica took her to the hospital the doctors called child services and again they picked up Stacy. She went in and out of different homes until she was ten when she was adopted by lesbian couple named Jenny and Sarah. Jenny and Sarah loved Stacy as if she was their own and never made her feel out of place. She even looked like Sarah who was also Jewish. Life seemed to get better for her, that is until high school.

Anastasia was always a bubbly optimistic, and she decided based on everything she ever went through: If all else failed, she still had love. And she was determined to fall in love. She often got picked on and bullied because of that. People would say things like: "She'll do whatever you want if you say you love her." And honestly it was true, not sexually of course but she would follow you wholeheartedly like a love sick puppy if she thought she could make you love her. It became an obsession on her part.

When it was time for her to go to college her moms decided to send her money so she could pay for it on her own along with pay for her books and such. Though she was reckless and spent her food and book money on parties and clothes. Realizing she had no money to pay for her second semester she searched for a job. Her friend approached her with a easy job where all she had to do was look hot and go to parties. That is how she became an escort. She thought it was innocent at first, she simply attended parties, not thinking of the legal repercussions or how dangerous it might become. At first it was just until she could pay for books and food but as she enjoyed more money coming in she lost the urge to stop.

That all changed when one day she went to a bar with her friends. She was actually working that day. "Entertaining " a group of rich frat boys. They sent her to the bar to get more drinks. While there she saw a brooding man, she instantly felt a connection to. He, however, did not feel the same. She didn't care, she thought he was the one. She insisted to her friends that he was the one and she was hooked. A while after that she met a man named Isaac who offered her a chance to be with him physically, she accepted of course. Even now that she knows what her basic purpose is she doesn't regret it. As long as she has hope that he may one day love her, she's happy.
