Chapter 2: Breeding Auction

1808 Words
(Mirabella POV) “Where are we going, father?” I asked, and he groaned with annoyance. “Can you please keep your mouth shut for once, Mirabella?” His harsh tone made me shut up for good. I didn’t dare to ask another question of him. I am doing this for my brother, Alaric! I reminded myself and looked outside the car window, which Dad rented especially to make a good impression on his boss. He was checking his watch again and again, like he couldn’t wait to meet him. Well! I was also eager to see where the rich people actually live and how the hell on earth I got so lucky to get this job? It was like a dream come true for someone like me. I reminded myself of all the benefits listed on the paper, which Dad handed me with all the job instructions. I read everything again and again and giggled several times, finally finding a ray of hope in my hopeless, gray, and boring life. I will be able to finish my studies and get a good job to support myself. I didn’t plan to find a mate and settle down. I want to live my life on my own terms, and I have already made a diary with almost a hundred wishes that I will fulfill one by one after getting that decent job. I didn’t realize when I fell asleep, but when the car stopped, I jerked awake as someone attacked me. Dad looked at my overreaction and just rolled his eyes in annoyance. “We are here, Sir!” The driver announced, and I quickly grabbed my backpack and opened the door on my side. “What??? We are meeting your boss on a cruise?” I looked ahead to where a beautiful cruise was present, but it was really strange for me. I thought we would meet him in his office or in his house. “He didn’t have much time on hand, so we have to talk to him during this party,” He quickly answered before handing a hundred-dollar bill to the driver. I nodded in understanding. “Let’s go,” He said and started moving towards the cruise, but something wasn't feeling right. “You have to trust him, Mirabella. He is your father after all,” I said to myself and started following him. We went on the cruise, and the water looked so beautiful on this full-moon night. I stared at the water while my father told the man about our purpose for being there. “Of course! Mr. Romero is waiting for you inside,” He said and gave him the directions. He thanked the man and walked towards the big lounge area, which was decorated with modern furniture and impeccable lighting. It looked like a five-star hotel’s lounge instead of a cruise. I can bet it would cost a sh*tload of money to own something like this. “Where is the girl?” A man in a bodyguard's dress code asked, and my father handed him a paper with all the details. I didn’t know when he filled out everything on this paper, but I decided to stay quiet throughout the entire deal. “What’s her name?” “Mirabella,” “Good! And it is for all the gambling, liquor, and all the deals, right?” He confirmed, and my head whipped towards my father. I stood up from my spot when I felt like I heard something wrong. “What? No! I am here for the housekeeping job for my father’s boss,” I answered, and he looked towards my father, who turned pale after hearing my answer. “Oh, Right! Then you have to go to that area and join the other girls,” He pointed towards the left wing. “Other girls?” I asked in a stupefied tone. “Yes! You don’t think that a billionaire will have only one housekeeper in his mansion, right?” He asked, and I understood his words, but the look on his face was giving me the creeps. “Oh…okay,” I answered and headed in that direction, but when I was about to turn the corner, I quickly turned to look at my father’s face, who was grinning like he had won the lottery with many rolls of cash in his hands. “This much money for housekeeping?” I asked myself and witnessed how he signed the papers and then left the cruise. I gulped hard and walked towards the left wing. I thought he would wait for a bit and introduce me to his boss at least, but he didn’t wait for me even a second. It cut deep, but I took a deep breath and thought about my own education and Alaric’s treatment. “Hey, girl! Are you here for the auction too?” A young girl asked who was in nothing but a bikini. My eyes widened after taking in her form. “No, I am here for the housekeeping job,” I answered, and she furrowed her brows in confusion and then burst out laughing. “Good one! Your sense of humor is good. You got me there for a second,” She answered, and I didn’t realize what was so funny in my answer. “No! I am telling you the truth,” I answered in a serious tone, and she gave me a curt nod before walking in the direction where that bodyguard was present. “What's her deal, Marco?” She asked, and whatever he answered made her groan loudly. “Okay,” She answered in a low tone before turning towards me. “Follow me, little girl,” she said, and I started following her when we entered a room that looked like a dressing room. Almost twenty or more girls were present inside it. All of them were wearing colored bikinis as if they had to attend some kind of competition. The unease in my body flared up, and I turned towards that girl. “Why are we here?” I answered in a low tone. “Are you a virgin or not?” She asked in a blunt tone, and I wasn’t expecting this from her. “Be quick,” “A v-v*rgin,” I answered in a hesitant tone, and she nodded and turned towards all the bikinis present on a big table, which I hadn’t noticed before. “Here! Wear this and quickly wear some makeup,” She ordered, and my mouth hung open. “But for what? I am not wearing this bikini,” I answered, and she rolled her eyes as an exaggerated reaction. “Look! Keep it in your mind that you are not here for that damn housekeeping job, okay? Your father sold you to the cruise owner for a breeding auction. And now, you have to attend this auction with us, and hopefully, one of the highest bidders will buy you, and then you will become his s*xtoy for this life, understand?” Her words were like a freaking atomic bomb for me. It exploded in my mind, and I felt like my whole world, my dreams, my hope, and my whole goddamn life turned into ashes right in front of me. Color drained from my face, and I looked at her face with such shock and fear that her eyes softened a bit. “I know, He lied to you to lure you into this trap, but he has a debt of millions because of gambling and alcohol habits, so he used you to clear his debt and earn some more cash to gamble some more,” She answered, and a tear rolled down my cheek while my mind turned numb. “Now wear this and then apply some makeup because if someone doesn’t choose you, then your life will be worse than hell and trust me on that, you will want the second option even in a thousand years,” she tried to warn me, but I caught the meaning hidden behind her words. My fingers turned ice-cold when I grabbed that bikini from her hands and put my backpack on the table. I packed all my books, my diary, and some worn-out clothes with hundreds of dreams and hope, and now… everything ended just in a single second. I entered in the changing room and changed my dress. It seemed like someone turned off my emotions, and now, I was operating in robot mode. I applied a bit of makeup, which didn’t turn out well, so the girl who was instructing me helped me with it, too. Her name was Tyla, and she was in charge of presenting all the girls in the breeding auction, so she was doing just that. I took a seat in the corner while staring blankly at all the girls. None of them was behaving like me… maybe they were already aware of this auction, or maybe they had already mourned over the betrayal of their loved ones. I felt a deep ache in my heart, and tears welled up in my eyes when I started thinking about Alaric’s treatment. No one was there to help him with his medical bills now. What will he do?” I looked outside the window and laughed at the irony of the situation. I can't even run away from this cruise because there was nowhere to go, just water… deep, cold water. “Hey girl! It’s time to go,” Tyla helped all the virgin girls and me in a line. All the virgin girls were in white bikinis, while the other ones were in red bikinis. A few of them were wearing orange and blue too, but I didn’t dare to ask anything from them, as I had lost all interest in my life and in the whole f*cking world. “I hope someone good picks me up because last year's ten omegas lost their lives because of their s*ck games. All the jaded alphas turned into freaking animals, and for them, we are nothing but a tool to satisfy their s*x needs and f*cking baby-making machines,” One of them said, and my body started turning cold with fear about my already bleak future. “Yeah! I heard that they like to play weird games with the omegas, and that’s why they hold this auction on the cruise now, because the werewolf council banned it years ago,” another one added. I didn’t know even a single thing about this breeding auction or the s*ck games they play after buying all the omegas. My heart turned heavy, and then six guards entered the room. “Line up, Omegas!” Marco said, and all of them tensed by thinking about what was coming for us.
