Chapter 1
I jolted awake by a loud thud near me. I tried opening my eyes only to be met by darkness. There was a cloth covering my eyes. Confuse of what’s happening, I tried to call for help, only to realize that duct tape was sealing my mouth, preventing me from making a sound.
I tried to move but a something cold was wrapped around my wrists. It was tied to a metal chair, I was chained.
The cold air pinched my bare skin, sending chills through every corner of my body. I am almost naked. The only fabric covering me was my undergarments.
“This is a very refined product!”
The voice shifted my focus to my surroundings. There were murmurs somewhere.
“He has muscular built. In his early twenties, and though you might not see because we have him blind folded—”
I started hearing clearly. My heart pounded violently in my chest.
“this product has gorgeous golden brown eyes.”
There were gasps. I also heard people clapping.
“He’s healthy, and I can guarantee that his blood is enough to satisfy you.”
There were cheers everywhere. A hand tapped my head. It alerted me. Are they bidding for me?
“The bid starts with half million!”
What in the fucking fuck is going on? I could hear voices, bidding higher and higher. I struggled on my seat but to no avail. The chain was too thick for me to even try.
I remembered applying for a part time job at an auto shop when I notice a vehicle following me. The last thing I know, a hand pulled me in the van. He was too strong for me to fight off.
“2.5 million!”
“2.5 million! Do we have any higher bid? This product can both satisfy your hunger and provide you personal pleasure.”
Women’s voices started bidding higher. Shit! Shit! Shit! Where the fuck am I!
I tried moving, trying to somehow free myself, push myself out of the chair but the fucking chair won’t even budge a little.
“Fifty million!”
“Wow! Fifty million! Any higher bid than fifty million?”
There was silence, and I swear, I was starting to almost shit myself.
“I guess, fifty million is our highest bid from the lady in red. Going once!—”
My screams are muffled by the duct tape. I desperately tried to free myself, but the more I move, the more the chains wrapped around me dug deep in my skin. I looked ridiculous to them now, but I could careless. I refuse to just give up.
“Going twice!”
“One hundred million! Cash!”
The voice was not loud, nor did it sounded like a rush. He was calm, but I could feel the entire place tense up.
Then I hear footsteps walking towards me.
“Aren’t you going to close the deal?” The man’s voice was enough for me to tremble in fear despite not being able to see him.
“W-Wow! That’s the highest bid we’ve had tonight!”
“I know. And I believe no one wants to outbid me, am I right?”
His voice made me held my breath. No one protested. I felt not a single movement from anyone.
The chains loosened. I immediately stood, but my knees gave out. I fell on the cold marbled floor. Fucking pathetic! I thought to myself.
A hand yanked me up, then a cloth was placed on my shoulders, covering me.
His face closed the distance to mine. I could tell because I could smell him, feel his breath on my neck.
“Even if you try your best to run, you can’t. So don’t do anything stupid if you don’t want me to lose my temper and kill you right this instant.” His words immediately sent shivers down my spine.
I didn’t say anything. I couldn’t say anything. Fear engulfed me completely, and I stood in complete defeat.
“He’s sold to me.” I heard him say.
“U-Uh, sold!”
The moment the other voice announced it, he dragged me down a stair. I didn’t try to pull away from him. His dangerous and I should just obey him, the voice in my head kept telling me.
He shoved me inside a car. I can hear the engine. My eyes were still blindfolded and both of my hands were chained.
I tried to mumble, shout. I wanted to let him know that whatever it is that’s happening, I’m totally not fine with it.
A cold hand touched my neck, causing me to sat still on my seat.
“Don’t do anything stupid,” he said with a husked voice, almost like a whisper. “It’s not helping. It only makes me want to devour you more.”
Chills crawl through every inch of my skin. The fear he gave me was something I couldn’t understand. I wanted to push him away. To tell him to fuck off but nothing came out, not even a sound.
A finger traced my lips above the tape like he was trying to memorize the curves and lines. I could hear my heart in my ear. It was so loud its deafening.
He aggressively removed the duct tape. I winched in pain, but I grabbed the chance to talk.
“W-Who are you? Let me go!”
My questions was met with his smirk.
“Negative. I bought you for a hefty amount of money and don’t plan on wasting it.”
“What do you want from me?” I asked again.
I waved my hand, searching to where he was but his hand seized mine and pulled me in.
“A lot. And I will gladly take it with or without your permission.” His voice was proud and arrogant. I could tell he is someone with so much power in the society.
I’m starting to lose any hope. If he is really someone that has power in the society, then a poor guy like me cannot win against him even if I tried to ask the authority for help.
“Fuck you! Once I free myself from these chains, I will kill you!” I tried to sound unfazed to at least intimidate him a little, but I didn’t think it was working.
“Shhh!” he placed his fingers on my lips. “Don’t worry about that, because I’ll surely fuck you to my heart’s content. That’ll guarantee my death.”
I was dumbfounded at his reply. This fucking psycho!
“Just be patient for a little. I’ll give you what you were asking for,” he whispered in my ear.
