The last while, the sister had been taking care of me and not her brother. She was less patient than he was, but it meant I had more time alone without his strange banter. She would toss food and drink down, then demand I eat. When I don't move right away, she just leaves me to eat coming back later to gather the dishes. My meals are a simple dish only once a day now, rather than maybe once every couple of days. It is always around when the sun is high; bright light glowing through the slit in the curtains.
The sun had barely come up when my day had already been modified. I could see the sky was still a pink, when my slamming door woke me. Knowing I had to look at who entered before they decided to punish someone, I turned in their direction. To my surprise it was the father once more with that doctor, who took blood last time. Curling up against the bars I looked away to ignore their presence.
"See! This is all he does. The kids have been feeding him and trying to get him to do more but he just turns away. I figured a dominant would be more active and possibly aggressive. Are you sure your tests were right?" They had both come up to my cage.
"Oh yes. My tests were correct. He is the first dominant I have studied, and blood tests do not lie. His scent is also much different than that of a submissive, as I am sure you are aware. He must have a way to control his pheromone levels by now with how he has been handled." The doctor still had the creepy tone to his voice.
"He has not been handled since the photoshoot." The father stated as though it was normal. "We keep it minimal now to keep his scent cleaner."
"Speaking of that. My office has been bombarded with calls on how to take care of one like him. Most are lacking the funds to even do such but there is one rich Alpha that is doing all I suggest. He is even sending photos of a room set up as per my instructions. It was no small change with my suggestions." He chuckled. "He is not even a local. His manner of speech suggests overseas."
"That sounds like the one that will not spare a cent in his purchase. Be good to him, it might just be our next buyer. In fact, if you think he really has the money, invite him to the actual sale so he does not have to do it online. If he is willing to fly in, he is willing to spend more to take him home." The father coughed and I turned back his way, knowing he wanted me too. "This mute is smart and can almost do what we want without an order. He might not speak with words, but his eyes tell of his hatred and fear. By the end of today he will be filled with more of both."
"I take it you want a full examination. The sale is next week." The look in the doctor's eyes had me shiver.
"Sort of. I need evidence to go with his file of his reproductive organs. Nothing physical, just an x-ray or ultrasound, as we are keeping him pure in all forms. My daughter will be up soon to take him to the medical ward downstairs." The father started to turn away. "We want pictures of him unclothed as well for his file to show he is unmarked. No unnecessary touching."
"You are really expected to hold out here long if you have a permeant medic area. I am happy we do not have to travel to my clinic but sad at the same time."
"My daughter will be there, so keep it in your pants. When you're done you can leave your reports in the same room. Then I expect you to contact that rich Alpha. I want money to flow in. I even upped the sale with another fifty omegas for buyers that won't make the dollar for him."
"Then he will be sold first? That won't have other buyers leave after?"
"No. He is sold last. However, buyers will know who they are competing against and their worth by a minimum dollar value they have set." They had reached the door and looked back at me. "This omega will be the best thing on the market for years, and it will allow me to retire."
They both laughed as they exited my room. I continued to observe as they walked out before turning back towards the window. No matter what they planned with me it was never good. At least they still talked around me allowing me to learn. Today will be another dose of tranquilizer for the doctor visit they talked about. In fact, it was not long before the sister came up with food and drink.
"Today you eat this up while I am here. I am not your maid little one and I do not have the time to go back and forth today." She was already opening the door and placing the food close to me, unlike her norm of leaving it by the door.
The sun was lighting the room up more and I almost missed the dark room where I would be forgotten. Looking down at the food and drink then back up at her I looked back at the window. I knew the drug had to be in the food. There was no way she would change her behaviour of my feeding this fast just because.
"Look mute. I am serious. Eat this or have nothing today. The faster this sale is over the faster I can take it easier. You have been giving me extra work these last couple of months and that makes me unhappy." She pushed the dishes over with her foot. "Besides, the drug is not in these. Today you will be expected to behave without drugs. Just like the pictures. Remember them? Brother picked up this sweet little pup as motivation for you."
My face turned towards her right away. They did not say pup very often. It meant they had an underage omega here again. Even seeing her smirk, I knew I would be forced to comply with what they needed today. The thought turned my stomach, and I looked away once more.
"Fine. You starve today." She grabbed the food and tossed in in a bin near the door. "I will be back with your leash. Think of today as a practice for the sale. You won't be in the cage you know. The sale is not even here." She disappeared behind the door after giving me key knowledge; I would be leaving area for this sale of theirs.
Would the sale still happen if I fought back? What would it mean, if the sale was stopped, for the other omegas? There were to many what ifs for me to think about. While I was deep in thought the sister had already come back.
"Brother left us some neat new leads for you. I think this set from the photo shoot is my favourite and it's what I am gonna use today." She was holding up the set that had a muzzle attached to the lead.
I hated that set the most from that day. When they moved the chain even a little my head was forced to move with the momentum. Hoping she decides her time was not worth it, I refused to stand and wait for her. Curling up tighter in my corner I turned away from her once more.
"Ha! Looks like I found something you dislike more than the other omega threat! Father will be pleased. This will be your sale set then." She chuckled. "I dunno why you think you can refuse Mute."
My whole being was beyond furious to her words. If it was not for the years of control, I would have let it escape. Standing up and facing her for the tools she held before her, had her laugh once more. Keeping the fluffy thing under my arm actually kept me grounded. Over and over in my mind repeating the same thing; I do this for the others. I was doing the best I could for my pack.
"Hmmm. No need for your bear." She grabbed fluffy thing and tossed him to the ground while watching my eyes follow it. "You're really attached to it now, eh? Maybe we should keep it away on day of sale. You will have to pay attention, ya know." I hardly realized she walked forward until my chains pulled tight. "Look at me go. Finding two things you react with. Father will give me a small raise with this information. Now hurry it up."
The house was a flurry of activity. Not unlike when they were preparing for a move. This time they were preparing for a sale. They had a few new workers running around with new collars and dishes, and of course the cleaning staff. I do not mean maids. These guys are the ones that clean the omegas, or stock care as they like to call it. Keeping my head up, I used the walk to look at all the people and staff.
We walked to where I thought the main floor would be, then proceeded into a room that smelled like disinfectant. I could already hear the creepy doctor talking. "All fifteen I checked were clean. You are selling good stock this round. Who is next?"
"The Mute. We can't have him out of his cage that long. Unlike these other omegas, we can't risk marks from injuries. Bruises are bad enough." The sister tugged my chain as if to make a point.
"How do you plan to strip him?" The doctor walked over. "If I had the money available, I would be looking at his purchase, but all I can do is hope for live streaming."
"Get scissors and cut the clothing off, then you can have a closer look before he sells. He does not need them the next few days anyways. We sell unclothed as you know." The sister chuckled. "He has a warmer room than the others."
"Oh! It will be my pleasure to assist you." The doctor looked at me with a look similar expression when he was taking blood. "His scent is not very pleasant, is it? Not that it would stop me from getting what I wanted if he was mine of course."
"Even my brother said it was offensive but worth it." The sister was wrinkling up her nose as she spoke. "His scent is mild to me. I wonder if his scent is made to scare Alphas off him."
"I think it is developed to attract the right mate. Only a compatible mate will truly enjoy it. Male omegas of this calibre are extremely rare. The research alone has never been done. All I have posted are my findings with this guy and what I feel from a medical standpoint." He brought his nose closer while he cut my clothing, having me try and step back.
The sister held the chain tight and spoke up at my movement. "I wouldn't move. If you look over by the door, the pup is here."
My focus turned towards a little omega male. Unlike me, I knew he was more on the submissive side. I guessed him to be around ten, meaning he had just displayed his second gender. Looking at his clothing and way he is behaving he came from a good family and sold off due to it. My best thought was that they were showing him what he would be dealing with in a couple years' time when he has his heat. Unfortunately for him he will be sold trained.
What it meant for me was how to help him before I am pulled away? Looking back at the sister and the doctor who was done removing my clothing and touching where he could, had me make a choice. What if they let him stay in my cell for a while? Some of the other omegas had cell mates. Slowly I tried to walk over only to be pulled back.
"Sis, he seems to like this one. Looks like I found the first thing he really responded with, eh?" The brother pulled the other omega back with the chain he held.
"Ha! You wish. I have already reported to father two of them." The sister pulled me in close, grabbing my chin to look into my eyes. "Brother. I just had an idea. What if father sold them as a pair? Instead of the bear have him connected to this one? It would make a toy between the toy. You and I both know that taking care of another male will be a waste of our time."
"You have a good plan. The Mute will live longer with a friend." The doctor walked over to the pup and I moved my head to watch while the sister laughed at my reaction.
"He has changed a little since he got that bear. Less like a dead thing. The cameras even have him looking at it. Could you imagine how lively he would be with a real toy? That and the new owner would have something to sway over him as well if they wished." Sister pulled me over to the new omega. I could see the tears in his eyes. "Brother. Hand him to me. Go talk to father. If he hesitates, remind him that this guy was not from the streets and to have him here for any period of time is dangerous. Doc is here so all inspections can be done in time."
To the shock of all in the room, I reached out and placed my hand on the young one's head. If they allowed me to offer him any comfort, I would take it. Now if there was only away to stop the sale and protect the pack. They allowed me to move closer and that was what I did. When the doctor was ready for me, they allowed the little one to stand beside me. It was not long and soon he was holding my hand and rubbing against my arm for support. I wanted to purr in delight on having a real member to my pack over the many unseen faces, but I still felt it safer to keep my face stoic. My hope was to share my cell and allow him comfort with a little scenting, and if he wanted the fluffy thing, he could have it.
