LUNA'S POV
A man walked into our room with Yolanda beside her smiling , mere looking at her everyone will know he's a regular customer and his pay is sure going to be a big one.
Yolanda called me and four other girls out, making us five and then asked to man to pick who he wants to buy.
I prayed silently not to be bought by him. He should be in his late forties. What on Earth does this old people do with young girls like us? They should be looking for a way to help us get a life.
"You sure have nice teast Yola" the old man said. His voice was deep.
Yolanda smiled at him, Ms. Yolanda is very beautiful, with her white set of teeth sparkling and making her look more beautiful.
The man walked over to us and stared at us one after the other. His smirk irrates me so much. I couldn't hate my step mother less, Whatever it is that she's using to blackmail my father, I promise her it won't last long.
The problem if I could ever get to see me dad ever again? What if the person that bought me decides to kill me? What if my date is a very bad one? What if....?
Should I just run away? Find a way to get out of here and then start a better life outside? But I'm broke. I don't know anyone, I've no where to go, and I can't return to my father's house. Cora will send me back when Yolanda come searching for Me.
What exactly do I do? It's all complicated! I just pray God grant me my wishes. Protect my father, Help me get out here.
"I'll go for this one" The man dragged out the girl just beside me.
I breathed down heavily. "please sir, don't buy me... Please pick someone else. I'm too young for all this, I still have a life ahead to live, please...." The girl was saying in tears.
"Oh, you cute little thing. I'll make sure you have the best life, Just be a good guy" the man smirked as Mia came in and drag the girl out of the room. I and the other girl sighed and walked back to sit on the floor.
Suddenly Mia rushed in breathing heavily, Mere looking at her she seemed, shocked yet excited.
"Ms. Yolanda" She called panting.
Yolanda turned away from the old man and stared at Mia.
"Mia,what?" She said.
Before Mia could say a word , a figure of a heavily built young man walked in. He was on mask, so I couldn't see his face but I'll say he's handsome, his hair was dyed , yellow and it fitted him.
His ocean small eyes stared around the room and then at Yolanda. His guards were behind him, about six of them and I guess it's not just them, some might be outside.
He should probably be in his early 25's. He look young, He seemed to be a rich person.
Ms. Yolanda covered her mouth like her palm, her cheeks were already red. Is she drooling over him? She seemed shocked seeing him. Even the old man too seemed shocked. Who is he? The owner of this place or what?
Even with the mask, his face was not smiley at all. He look strict. Mia bowed and was smiling too. The girl were murmuring and I knew they are all wishing he buys them.
I just sat and stared on, I'm still very scared. Scared of tomorrow, scared of what happens next. Scared of my future. Scared of my life.
This isn't what I wished for. This isn't the life I wished for. This isn't.....
I facepalmed myself and let go of the tears in my eyes. My family was once a happy and Complete one, how did this get this complicated? How did everything change in just a blink of eyes?! What and how!
"We weren't expecting you. It's a great honor to have you here, Mia get him a sit" Yolanda said smiling.
"I'll take my leave now". The old man said to Yolanda and then he hurried out of the room.
Despite being rich , I could guess this man is richer that him and maybe, more powerful too.
He raised him hand up in response to what Yolanda said and Mia stopped..
"I'm not here for your chatty chatty." He said slowly. His voice wasn't that deep but it sounded as a Melody in my ears.
"I'm sorry. We are just surprised you came here, it's the first time of you being here since this place was opened." Yolanda continued.
The man remained silent. Mia brought in a chair and one of the guards cleaned it before the man sat on it.
"I'm here.... Because I want to buy one of your...girls" He said , word after word.
Yolanda widened her eyes in joke. "This are the new girls , Which of them do you like? Miss Yolanda said.
I scoff. We are just being referred to as, probably used cloths or something. This isn't right. We have our own life.
"I don't like.... Any" He said.
He had not even taken a glance at anyone, he just focused on his phone.
YOLANDA'S POV
I was very shocked to see him here. He was well known for being extreme grumpy.
He's the most handsome man in San Francisco, But according to people... Those who knows him, His fans... And others. It was said that he had never smiled.
Seeing him here is a great honor and I wished I could take pictures with him. I admire him just like every other girls.
He doesn't talk much, he prefers you figuring out what he wants. He kills too. It was said that once he finds out you betrayed or do something behind and against him, no matter where you hide , he will find you and kill you with his own hands.
He was always masked. People said he did a surgery and became ugly, some said something happened to his face. People said lot of things. In as much as no one has seen his real face, he was still marked... The most handsome.
People are always afraid of him, yet he's still the most handsome. And people adore him.
No one knows the reason he's like that, grumpy and sad. People believed it was his mother, no one knows exactly how it happened!.
If people finds out that he came here, My company is sure going to be a big one.
"I don't like.... Anyone" he said engrossed in his phone.
I turned to look at his guards, they are good at figuring out exactly what he meant. But none said anything.
"Will you like it I bring in more girls for you to check? We can go to other room..?" I said.
He finally looked up and his eyes were on the girls, I swallowed the lump on my throat and stared still.
"I... Want, Her" He said and pointed at the girl by the corner, alone.
LUNA'S POV
"I.... Want, Her" I heard him said and looked up and I almost froze.
His fingers were pointed at me!
"We will arrange her for you" Mia said and quickly rush towards me. She urged me to stand up but I remained still.
"Get up!" Yolanda ordered.
"I don't want to!" I snapped.
The man walked out immediately without a word or a glance. Four of his guards walked after him and one remained Inside the room.
"Get up now!" Yolanda said again.
I tried to act strong but the feeling of fear takes the best part of me. My family...
My family....
That was the only thing I could hear, I'll have to learn to adapt life. To live without my family, without my father.. Maybe
Just maybe, for the rest of my life.
I hate you Cora! I hate you so much. What if this man ends up killing me? What if...
"Luna!" Mia tapped me.
I slowly stood up and hold my bag still, tears was rushing down my eyes.
I have been sold.... Someone bought me..., As his property.
___
Mia led me down the stairs after they've arranged me. They let me have a warm good bath and they gave me a beautiful dress to put on.
The man was sitting down, and his guards were behind him. He looked up the stairs when Yolanda announced my presence.
"Get her" He told the guards and then stood up and walked away.
One of the guards came up to me and held my hand then led me outside of Yolanda's house, He helped me sit in a car. Which was different from the one the man entered.
The car started and then slowly drove out of Yolanda's compound. Tears filled in my eyes as I know this is where I've to start my new life.
I've been sold out!!
LUNA'S POV The car drove into a compound and parked in a garage along with other cars. The masked man got down immediately as one of his guards opened the door, and starts walking inside the house.I got down myself and just stared around. The house is very beautiful. But I don't have that time to admire it. What am I supposed to do standing there? The guards all already left, probably to Stand in there position. I wanted for some seconds to see if anyone will talk to me on what to do but know on even spared me a glance.I decided to walked to the door the masked man had walked into earlier. I tried opening the glass door but since I'm not used to it, I don't know how. I'm even scared to touch anything , I feel if I touch anything I'll end up staining them. Argh! I'm just behaving like a village girl. I tried opening the door again but still I don't kno
LUNA'S POV I entered the room after the maid had left. My heart was beating faster than usual. The room was empty and there was no sign that someone was in the room. But the maid just told me that he's in here? Since I couldn't find him, I took my time to admire the room. It looks likes a king chamber, It was decorated well and it's very neat too. The king size bed has a rainbow blanket already over it. The room indeed is a very beautiful one. I tried to focus my mind to the fact that I'm here to see the person that bought me. Is he going to still be on mask? What will my fate be in his house? Is he a bad guy? Is he going to kill me?. I was wondering when one of the door in the room opened. I have observed there is two doors in the room, one should be for toilet and bathroom. And the other... Well, that I don't know. &
LISA'S POV I walked out of Gray's room in anger slamming the door behind me. Anger was boiling up in me , I walked down the stairs and then out of the house. I entered my car and drove out. I parked the car at the side of a road and angrily hit my hand on the wheel. Who does he even think is? The Mr. Popular? Because everyone bows to him and he assumes he can treat anyone the way that suits him. I won't deny the fact that I'm so in love with him but that isn't my mission. I'll have to get my mission done and then I can focus on making him mine. I wonder why he had to buy that whore. I'm very sure he bought her because no one can ever agree to live with him. He's the Saddest!. I thought he dropped the act already? Why now! Yes! It's never possible for Gray to fell in love. That will be the last thing he'll do, but I intend in ma
LUNA'S POV Don't question me when I instruct for something. Don't dare disobey me. And Do as I said, I'm your master... You are my PROPERTY!" he said. I bite my lower lips and nodded. "Do you understand everything I just said?" He asked. I nodded nervously. "Don't you dare nod at me and speak up!!" He grabbed my chins and I whined in pain. "Please I'm sorry. I understood what you said" I pleaded. He let go of me and I help my chin as it was paining me. "Look at me... In the eyes" He said. I trembled and tried to look at him in the eyes, but it isn't working. "I'm sorry, I can't. Please don't hurt me, I can't" I trembled. He remained silent for a while and then he held my chin up and my eyes landed on his.
LUNA'S POV I woke when I heard someone called my name before tapping me. I opened my eyes and saw May and two other maids standing there. "Good Morning" They all greeted. "Good morning, May, is everything okay?" I asked checking the time. It's 7:03 I'm the morning. "You've to go to the office with Master" May said. "Office? What office?" I said, My heart missed a beat after I heard her say master. I just remembered what happened yesterday. If he instructioned May to get me to go to the office with him does that mean he didn't mind about what happened last year? Or is he going to kill. "Hey Ma, I've been talking to you" May said tapping me.. "Sorry, I dizzed off" I muttered. "Master wants you to go to the office with him and he won't want you delaying him. You have..." May stopped and check her wrist watch.
LUNA'S POV The driver pulled over the car and I got down. Gray had told his driver to drive me back home after an hour of staying in his office with him, doing nothing. And i can believe all through my stay there, Gray didn't took off his mask. I mean, how is he so comfortable in it? Isn't he suffocating being masked all day? He didn't even talk to me. He just made me look do invisible and I feel angry but couldn't do anything. I'm glad he asked me to go home cause I see no use of me being there. I shut the door of my room behind me and fall on the bed, tired. I feel so hungry already. I removed my shoes and just then I heard a knock on the door. Mia walked in with a tray of food , smiling , she walked towards me. "You're back" She said and I nodded. She dropped the tray of the side table and helped me dish out the food.
LUNA'S POV The rays of sunshine shines on my face making me to open my eyes. I feel so worn out and sour. I slowly sat up from the bed and stared around.It wasn't my room! I walked to the window and stared around but there was no sight of another building, I look at myself and I was still dressed in the same black dress. How did I end up here? On the bed?The room isn't familiar to me In anyway , I walked to the door and made to open it but realized it was locked. I knocked but no one came by to open it. What's going on?" I muttered.I walked back to the window and slide the curtain to stare outside the window. I heard a noise on the door, I turned and saw a leg walk to my door, stop for some seconds and then retraced. I slowly walked to the door feeling scared for no reason. I open the door
LUNA'S POV I stood up immediately and made to run out but he was too faster than me, he catches up with me and drag my hand behind me pining me to the wall. His lips was almost touching mine.My eyes went to his waist and I find a gun. Wtf! What is he doing with a gun? But right now I don't care. All I want is just a way of escape, I just want to get out of here. I just want to escape. I grabbed the gun and pointed it at him, making him to move back. I was breathing heavily and I can't resist the fear in me. "Okay,Now you put the gun now or things will stop being funny" He said holding out his hand to me. I ignored him and still points the gun at him, he grab my hand so fast and twisted it again. He pinned me on the wall for the second time, this time I was looking at the wall and my hand hurts."Do you really want to kill me? Many have tried but it wasn't that easy" He whispered into my ears. "Radon, your presence is needed at the warehouse" A man said behind us."I'll be ri
