Gabby's POV
"Oh my Gosh, is she dead?." I asked Jake in horror as I saw Kaya's body sprawled on the floor.
"Does she look dead?." He asked me rhetorically.
"I don't know what a dead person looks like." I retorted.
He did not reply me, I watched as he lifted her and threw her body on his shoulder.
"Jake is she dead or not?!." I demanded for an answer.
"Why do you care, she's in this mess because of you. Your 'I'm worried' act don't fool me Gabby, I can see through you like clean glass." He said leaving my bedroom.
" At least for the sake of clarity." I stated.
"She's still breathing." He told me.
I felt a pang of pain hit me, somewhere in my heart throbbed because Kaya was still alive.
I heard Jake laughing and I turned to him with a glare.
"What is so funny!." I asked him harshly.
"You want her dead that's what is funny. I wish you could have see the frown on your face immediately after I told you she was still alive. I don't care why you hate her so much, but if this information helps you then you better hear it…she is going to suffer and her boyfriend is going to pay for beating me up." He said and he sauntered out of my house like a grim reaper.
I followed him downstairs, he threw kaya into the booth of his car. I winced as he shut the booth and immediately he drove away.
A smile was at play at my lips and I turned around and went Into my house.

Kaya's POV
I regained consciousness and the first thing I heard was the sound of laughter. I opened my eyes, the lights in front of me beamed as it shone towards me. There were about thirty spot lights being pointed towards me.
I winced as I tried again and failed to keep my eyes open because of the harshness of the beams. The reality of my circumstance came like a stab in my abdomen.
"Seems like our pretty doll is awake." I heard a man's voice say, it was unrecognizable. It was not Jake, where was I?.
A bout old laughter erupted, about fifty people were laughing. I forced my eyes open and I looked beyond the lights to see men wearing suits, they sat in a place that was like a ballroom, but smaller.
"Shall we begin the auction. This blonde headed goddess is going out starting from ten million dollars." The man standing on the other side of the stage said.
"Ten million." Someone shouted.
"What is this, get me out of here!." I demanded as I tried to wring myself out of the leather ropes that held me tightly on an iron chair, my struggling triggered another round of laughter.
"Twelve million!." Someone in the crowd shouted. I gasped, this must be a nightmare.
The man that was In charge of the auction walked towards me, holding a whip. He took a handful of my hair and he pulled it. It stung like a million angry bees.
"Get away from me you monster!." I shouted trying to bite his arm, he was quick and he jumped backwards.
"She's fiesty, I'll take her for twenty million!." Someone shouted.
I tried to wring myself out once again, it was impossible.
"Twenty two million!." I heard.
" You better free me now!." I demanded.
immediately I heard someone scream, I turned to the place the scream came from and I saw Jake marching towards me, but he was not looking at me, he was looking at the man In charge of the bidding.
" What the hell do you think you're doing Mike!." He demanded, the hall immediately became quiet as the men sensed that there could be a problem.
"I'm doing my job, bidding the girls you bring in. Where did you find this one, she's a star attraction." Mike said licking his lips as he stared down at me lustfully.
"She's not for sale, she's off limits, she's mine, for me only!." Jake stated, it triggered murmurs and Yells from the crowd, they screamed their displeasure.
"Thirty five million!..." Someone yelled.
"Forty million.... Forty two million." The bidding became a tight war.
Mike eyes twinkled with greed.
"Jake, I can't realese her, look around... She could go for more than fifty million!." Mike said. "Did I hear fifty million?!." He asked the crowd.
"Fifty million. Please let me have her, I'll take her for fifty million." A man shouted standing from his seat and walking to the front of the crowd.
" No. You guys can have the other girls, not this one." Jake said pulling the chair that I sat on.
" Jake, we'll loose customers if you do this." Mike warned.
" I'll pay hundred million for the Blondie." a deep thundering voice silenced the room.
I could hardly see the person.
" Sold!." Mike screamed and then Jake threw a punch at him that sent him to the ground. Mike groaned in pain, he turned to me and he raised his hand in the air to hit me.
"Tsk tsk tsk.... Mister, you're about to hit my property, don't you dare to lay even a finger on her fine cheek." The voice commanded.
Jake yelled and punched the air.
"Bitch you keep getting away, but you're going to pay one day!." He said pointing a finger at me, veins bulged from his neck like live snakes, his eyes shone red with a wicked kind of anger. I perceived that he was going to plot something bigger this time.
He turned away and he left.
"She will be ready for you in a few minutes sir, after you have completed your Payment." Mike said with a wide grin.
"You're going to regret ever buying me you bloody bastard, I'll make your life a living hell, you better change your mind now that to you've got a chance!." I said blindly to the crowd hoping the man would be in my line of vision.
I was hopeless and scared, but, I knew that I had to feign courage so I would not seem like an easy fix. If they knew how feeble I really was, I would have been laying in a pool of urine.
Anxiety swam in my guts and I really wanted to wake up and find that it was only a bad dream.
"Get up sweetie, you're going to your new master." Mike said holding a cheque of hundred million dollars, I had been paid for.
