JulienneIn the darkness of the room everything seemed to cave in.I didn't know where I was anymore. Alone in this cold, dark cell, I closed my eyes, shuddering at the memory seemed to last foreverAfter being dragged away from my home, a sack was pulled over my head. Before I was led into what felt like a car. Throughout I screamed and cried until my voice was hoarse.The hours seemed to last for an eternity.I didn't know when I fell asleep only to wake up here, in this dark cold cell- like room.Where was I? How far was I from home? Was I even in the city? What were they going to do to me?I had no idea of anything. Thanks to my mother, my entire life was upended. She had sold me off, and now, I was all alone.My jaw clenched as I forced the tears back. I had cried long enough to know that there was no use in this situation. I had to remain strong.Yet despite my attempts, sobs still gathered in my chest. How could I stay strong like this? I was scared.This felt like a nightmare

Daemon As Bene droned on about the latest happenings, I nodded absently, keeping my face neutral. I was sure he thought I was listening when I was far from it.My jaw clenched as I recalled her deep set dark eyes that were piercing mine only moments ago.Julienne Williams.I couldn't take my mind off of her.I could still recall the moment she'd appeared on the podium. Auctions like these sickened me to the core and were it not to keep appearances I would have shut it down , much less attended. But as my uncle would say, there were some necessary evils, and this was one of them.I sat, merely waiting for the event to be over and then I saw her.She was a vision in white, her porcelain skin and dark hair making her look like an angel. And those eyes... they had sparkled with defiance, even as fear lurked beneath.I had never been one to indulge in fantasies, but something about her drew me in. Desire had coursed through my veins as I watched her gaze shift, terror evident. I wanted to

Julienne’s POVIt was pointless trying to fight this. I had no power and it wasn’t entirely up to me to begin with. It was a manly hand and he was a lot stronger than I was. I could slowly feel my consciousness slipping away as my struggle was becoming weaker as each second went by. Suddenly, I found myself fighting to keep my eyes open. If I lost consciousness, I might as well have lost the whole battle, leaving my grandma to fend for herself. I felt myself being dragged past an open door towards a rather silent room. What if I was being led to be tortured in captivity yet again by my dear mother? I wouldn’t have that, I couldn’t let my story end in such a pitiful manner. I couldn’t see where I was being pulled into, the whole place had gone dark. Maybe they had cut off the electricity to prevent me from calling for help. I didn’t know and I didn’t care, not now. I could hear voices talking and laughing in the distance, I could hear cries also. A small part of me was hoping so

Daemon“Everyone, leave,” I ordered and within a couple of seconds, the room emptied leaving just me and Julienne in it. I watched on in silence as she fidgeted, trying to will herself to be anywhere but here. I had no idea that she was part of the interested interns we were going to be interviewing today. “I…I don’t, I—“It was an amusing sight seeing her trying to explain what she was doing here and I relished in the fact that I made her lose her words. She ought to be scared of me, I would have it no other way. “Cat has got your tongue, hasn’t it?” I chuckled. “I’m sorry, Daemon. I had no idea.” She whispered. “What are you apologizing for, Julienne?” I asked, crossing my arms on my chest. “You need to be a lot more specific.”The silence stretched on for what felt like minutes. “I had no idea you owned the company, I wouldn’t have applied if I did.” “You’re making wild assumptions, Julienne. There’s no indication that I own this company.” I shrugged.“You sent everyone out

Julienne I exhaled and laid my head back down on the mattress, trying to return my breathing to its normal process. I doubted if I would ever be able to heal properly, to be normal again. I wanted to close my eyes again but the fear didn't let me. I knew what would happen if I dared close my eyes, I knew for certain that the nightmares would surely return. I was helpless right now, there was no way for me to prevent them from happening. But it didn't stop my mind from wandering back to those days and remembering everything my eyes saw right up till the time I had decided to leave my mother’s house before I was killed, it usually ended up with how everything went south and I was brought here to begin my miserable life as a prisoner held against my wishes.I still had faint memories of when I was truly happy and without a worry about anything happening in the world with my parents who cherished me above anything else.But all of that was in the past, my father's legacy had been destroy
