CHAPTER 3

Freya stood by the side of the bar as she watched the group of masked men take Gwen away. A small smirk formed on her lips as she stepped forward and walked up to the van, where Gwen lay unconscious.

“I did as you said, you have a new item to sell. I won't pay you the money I owe anymore.” She said with a grin and the leader stared at her with a stoic expression before chuckling softly.

“Aren't you so cruel? Selling your sister off for a debt you owe, are you even human?” The leader asked as he stared at her through the hole of his mask and she simply shrugged.

She wasn't human after all so what's the use?

“I know she's worth more than a thousand dollars, so I need my share,” Freya replied as she stretched out her hand, and the masked man took out an envelope before handing it to her.

“It was nice working with you.” He said and she stepped back as the van drove away. She looked inside the envelope and grinned at the sight of the huge amount of money in the envelope.

She felt no remorse as she watched the van drive away with her only family in it. Getting money was more important than Gwen and she would make the same decision over and over again if given a choice.

Freya had always wanted to get rid of Gwen from the onset and this was the perfect opportunity for her. Instead of killing her, why not sell her away for cool cash? It was so perfect.

“... she's a pretty one, do you know how much she would cost?” 

Gwen could hear people speaking around her as the van she was in sped down the road and she opened her eyes to nothing but darkness.

She immediately realized that she had been abducted and started to struggle but her hands and legs were tied tightly. Her face was covered with a cloth and she had no way to escape.

“Oh? The pretty one is awake.” One of the men said as he pulled the cloth away from her face and she squinted her eyes to adjust to the light in the car.

“She woke up so fast, I thought I knocked her out enough to keep her dead for days.” Another one said and Gwen looked around in fear. Her heart was beating fast as she looked around to see if Freya was with her.

When she saw no signs of Freya, she let out a sigh of relief, thinking that they did not get the sister as well.

“What do you want from me?” Gwen asked, her voice hoarse in fear, and the first man gripped her chin as he made her look up at him.

“Oh, we want a lot from you. You're such a pretty thing, I can't wait to know how much you'd cost. I just wanna fuck you senseless right now.” He said with a toothy grin and Gwen recoiled in disgust as she struggled against the ropes on her hands.

She was a werewolf; she could immediately break free from the ropes, but how could she fight against six bulky men? She might die in the process and they'd find Freya next. She had to remain calm and plan her escape carefully.

“Quit it, Jack. She's an item to be sold, not your fuck toy. If she gets bruised just a little, you know she'll lose value.” The leader spoke up from the front and Jack grinned before letting go of Gwen's face.

“She isn't fighting back or trying to scream. She's a smart one, after all, knows how to accept her fate.” Jack said as he took a seat and Gwen breathed slowly while looking around.

She couldn't help but wonder where they were taking her. What did they mean by an item to be sold? Were they going to sell her off?

The van suddenly came to a halt and before Gwen could blink, Jack jerked her up and pulled her out of the van before throwing her over his shoulder. She stayed silent, carefully observing her environment but to her disappointment, it was all covered with trees and bushes.

She had no idea where they were but she wouldn't give up. She had to find her sister. She had to protect her even if it meant giving up her life.

“Listen up, darlings, we have a new product, and well, truth be told, she's way prettier than you all. So treat her like a queen and make sure she remains beautiful for the auction event.” Jack said as he suddenly dropped Gwen harshly to the cold ground and she winced in pain.

She glanced around to see ladies about her age and even younger staring at her with wide eyes. Some stared at her in pity, others stared in jealousy. She immediately crawled to the end of the room as she hugged her feet over her chest.

She could tell that they were all humans. She was the only werewolf among them. What if they found out about her identity? 

“Listen up bitch,” One of the girls said to Gwen, and she raised her head to look at her. “Just because you're pretty doesn't mean you're special. If you provoke me, I'll scratch that beauty away from your face.” She threatened but Gwen wasn't even listening. She was so worried about Freya and wondered if she knew that she had been abducted.

“I'm talking to you, you stupid bitch!” The girl yelled and suddenly lunged at Gwen in anger. Instinctively, Gwen pushed her off and she crashed against the wall, causing everyone to gasp in shock as they stared at Gwen.

“Sir! Sir! She's been violent in here! She's trying to kill me!” The girl yelled and Gwen's eyes widened when she realized what was happening. She was being framed even though she was the one who was attacked first.

Gwen shook her head in denial as Jack walked back in with a scowl on her face and without thinking twice, he smacked her hard, causing her to let out a yelp of pain.

He suddenly started to tear her clothes off and Gwen screamed when she realized that he was about to violate her. 

“Don't do this… she tried to attack me—”

Jack smacked her hard again to stop her from talking as he tore her clothes off and she sobbed while trying to struggle from his grip.

Everyone just sat there and watched. He was going to rape her and they all just watched like it was some kind of drama.
