Anna's pov.
I woke up in a strange place. Smells of drugs and cigarette smoke were everywhere. I got up and sought an exit as I suffocated in that environment. Where the hell was I? And what happened to me? I didn't remember anything except that cheater Adam pricked me with something on my neck, and I lost consciousness. I pressed my palm on my ear as it was too noisy to help me with my headache. Girls in the room were chatting continuously and making noise.
“Excuse me! Which place is this, and why am I here? I want to go home.” I asked a girl standing near me, talking to another girl.
She gave me a look as if I was an alien and started laughing at me. Another girl also joined her and mocked me.
I frowned and decided to find out about this place myself. I was about to walk outside when someone held my hand, dragged me back into the room, and threw me on the bed.
“Where do you think you are going, you b***h?” A woman in forty with heavy makeup, wearing a high slit gown with a deep neckline, said. Her accent was Asian. So I was in an Asian country. But could it be possible? Adam had planned so far.
I was stunned by her remark. How dare she call me names?
“Who are you? You don't dare to call me that. Do you know who I am?” I retorted.
“I know you very well. You're a spoiled brat from a rich family. I know how to tame some spoiled girls like you,” she spat out.
“You dare to show me your attitude, and I will show you your place,” she threatened.
“Why the hell am I here?” I asked.
“Oh, baby, we paid a big fat amount for you. Now we own you,” she said and laughed weirdly.
“What… what do you mean, you own me? Nobody can own me,” my voice shook at her disclosure.
“Listen, Barbie doll. We have bought you, and now we're going to auction you. Co-operate with us. We will make more money,” she showed her ugly grin.
My eyes widened at her confession. “What do you mean you bought me?" I asked in fear, “What do you mean by auction? Are you going to sell me? To whom?”
She rolled her eyes and said, "listen, little who.re, this is a brothel, and you will be auctioned every night, and you have to serve your highest bidder.”
Even my soul shivered at her remark. Not in my weirdest dream would I do that.
“No. I won't do that. Listen, if you want money, call my brother. He will give you whatever amount you want. Please let me go,” I tried my luck.
She again laughed horribly. “You fool, you have no idea. How much money are we going to make from selling your body? You are so pretty and untouched, a highly rich breed. Men will die to have a taste of you. They will willingly pay whatever we demand.” She trailed her dirty hand on my arm, and I flinched.
She clapped her hands, and a few girls came quickly.
“Wash her properly and get ready for the auction,” she gave them orders, making goosebumps erupt in my body due to fear. She smirked, looking at me. "Make her body flaunt so seductively that she can get the highest bid for tonight."
They were devils, worse than animals, monsters. I didn't want to be sold like this.
“Listen, please don't do this to me. If you want, you can kill me. But don't do this. I will give you money, everything you want. Please, please let me go,” I was crying and screaming, but she didn't pay any attention and walked out of the room.
A girl grabbed my hand and dragged me towards the bathroom.
“No. Let go of me,” I resisted.
She slapped me hard on my face, making my cheek sting with pain.
“Are you going to corporate or not?'' She barked at my face.
I held my cheek and glared at her with anger and hatred in my eyes. Was she really a woman? How could they treat me like that?
“Lower your eyes, you b***h,” she threatened.
But I still glared at her gritting my teeth. She kicked me on my stomach, and I crouched and clenched my jaws as I cried in pain.
“You better learn to listen. Otherwise, you will have a very tough time here,” she warned and began dragging me again by pulling my hair. My cries and sobs had no effect on her. Two more girls followed her. I was carefully watching their next move.
“Remove your clothes and wash yourself properly.” She barked her order at me.
I remained silent and didn't respond to her. She looked at me with anger and gritted her teeth. She motioned her eyes towards the other two girls and silently instructed them. Without warning, those two girls grabbed my dress and tore it apart from my body, making me startled and gasping in shock. They were crueler than I imagined. They had no heart or feeling. I had understood that they were going to treat me like an animal, nothing more than that.
They began pouring water on me and rubbing my body mercilessly with different soaps and shampoo. I tried to resist. But again, they hit me hard on my face and stomach and pulled my hair to make me cry in pain. I was never mistreated in my whole life. I was living a very comfortable life like a princess. I had never been in such a condition. My family always kept us, women, far away from their Mafia business. So we had never seen so much cruelty and animalistic people.
I kept crying and pleading with them to let me go, but they had no ear for my cries. They forcefully made me wear a very revealing dress, only a bralette and transparent skirt. My whole body was on display. They applied some makeup on me and pulled my hair up to make a pony reveal more of my skin. Till that time, I wasn't feeling anything because my mind became numb.
I truly regretted not listening to Xavier and Mia. I just wanted to go to her and apologize for those years. I misunderstood her, while she always wanted good for me. And I thought she was evil. I wouldn't be in this situation if I heard them when they alerted me about Adam.
Tears of regret began to fall from my eyes. As I knew till now, I could never meet them and tell them how sorry I felt for whatever I did to them.
“Hey, you little slut! Come, the auction is about to begin, and the bidders have come,” the girl said, and when she saw that I didn't move, she again tugged me by my arms and dragged me outside.
"You better behave properly if you don't want to stand naked before them,” she threatened, making my eyes flare. Could they do that? Of course, they were monsters.
She took me towards a big hall where colourful lights were shining, and more girls in transparent dresses were standing in a row on a stage. My heart began thumping in my chest when I noticed the crowd below the stage. They didn't take me towards the stage where other girls were standing.
Instead, they made me stand among the crowd and started filming a video. I didn't dare to look up. Because I didn't want to see those evil faces. Some men came near and started touching me with their dirty hands. More tears began rolling down my eyes. But it seemed they enjoyed it more when I cried hard. They were laughing and roaming around me, touching my breasts and my belly, someone demanding a kiss. Someone slapped my ass.
I felt like dying from the humiliation. I heard someone saying to remove my clothes and show them my assets. How could they be such animalistic monsters treating me like a thing? I kept standing there and waited for the worst to come.
Suddenly, that girl dragged me back.
“Alright, gentlemen, you have seen a sample of this beauty. In a while, an auction for this beautiful piece will start. Till then, you enjoy the show and have fun with other girls,” she announced and pulled me back towards the room.
“Sit here and wait for your turn. Enjoy your time till then.” She said and smirked. She locked the room from the outside.
I began pacing around in the room, trying to think of a way. So that I could run out of this place. There was not a single window in this room. I thought about killing myself. But I could not find a knife or razor or anything sharp so that I could either kill some of them or cut my wrist. I just didn't want to have such a life.
I didn't remember what kind of sin I had committed.
God, please, either save me or kill me. I prayed silently.
I didn't want to live like this, being a s*x slave or serving a new man every night.
Hours had passed, and suddenly the door of this room opened. That lady in her forties comes in.
“Show time, precious. Go and make good money for me,” she showed me her ugly grin.
Again, two girls came and held me on each side. They pulled me out of the room. This time they took me to the stage and made me stand in the center. The spotlight landed on me, making me cover my eyes from the brightness.
I could not see anything clear around me due to the darkness and dim light everywhere except the spotlight on me. Only I was illuminated as a showpiece placed in an auction.
The auctioneer began to announce the bid,
"Gentlemen, presenting you all the beauty of the night. An untouched, from a rich family, very delicate and a virgin. Who wants to own this precious piece and wants to deflower her? Who wants to be the lucky man to be her first?”
I felt nauseous listening to him.
“The bid will start at 10 million dollars. Remember, gentlemen, we only take dollars. So you want to own this virgin beauty?” He announced further.
“11 million!” A voice came amongst the crowd.
“12 million!" One more buyer bid.
“12 million. Anyone else?” That pimp asked, and yes, that word suited him more than the auctioneer as he was selling a body.
“Look at this pure beauty. You sure want to own her. Come on, gentlemen, bid generously. She is a once in a while deal,” he was selling me good. I snorted at hearing his description of me.
“20 million!” One more voice came.
“25 million!” Another bid.
“50 MILLION!” A deep, authoritative voice came, and my head snapped towards the voice.
