I pulled off my rough servant clothes and stood naked with eleven other humans while the wolves circled us like we were livestock at market.

“Twenty-two years old, healthy, trained in various domestic and personal services. Starting bid is ten thousand.” Bid. The word hit me like a physical blow. This was an auction.

Seth was unconditionally transferring 60% of his personal shares, three rare spirit-stone mines, and all inheritance rights of the Snow Fang pack to Leo. Tucked inside was a handwritten note. His once-proud script was now a messy, desperate scrawl. "I have no right to teach him. This is compensation, not an exchange." I didn't play the part of the magnanimous, forgiving woman. I signed.

Fade went on. "You are lucky to have that memory of 16 years of freedom, Fade. Unlike me who never tasted a second of what that feels like."

After what felt like a lifetime of silence, one of the slaves, Stasha, stood and made her way toward the paper. She read the paper silently to herself; her face showed nothing but worry. She stumbled backward as though keeping her own weight on her feet was painful. After another breath of silence, Kamala finally stood and made her way towards the paper as well.
