Stephen’s POV
I refused to go to the auction from the very first place when the host, Antonio first invited me. Antonio was actually my most trustful business partner for years, as we'd been through so many crises together. He is more like a brother to me, and he knows my type. I know that he always held auctions on his personal cruises, as many of his creditors would choose to sell their daughters to him, just to keep their family’s lives. It sounds crucial, I know, but that is just business for people like us. But this time, he insisted I go, as according to him, I won’t regret it this time. I had no idea what he meant, but as I was not busy those days, I decided to give myself a break and give it a go. Whether or not, what am I gonna lose?
It was quite late in the night when I finally arrived at the seaside. I’ve seen his cruise from really far away. I’ve always known that he got a beautiful cruise, but I didn’t expect it to be this big. I mean, what on earth in this world can’t this man afford? Antonio and his men were waiting by the shore just to greet me.
‘Stephen, my man, you are finally here!’ Antonio hugged me with his firm arms.
‘I should have visited your cruise long ago if only I knew that it was this gorgeous!’ I said as we stepped into the deck.
‘Well, it's not my fault, I’ve invited you many times, but you are always too busy to come. Busy with berrying your face under different asses I guess?’ He smirked.
‘Oh shut up you rat.’ Antonio hadn’t changed for years, still keen on dirty jokes.
‘At least let me show you around, bro.’ He said as he signaled his men to step back, and lead the way.
‘I’d prefer you to tell me why you insist I attend your auction this time.’ I asked.
‘Well, Stephen, I want you to see it by yourself. But trust me, bro, you will thank me after this.’ I was getting curious and curious, but I decided not to think about it for now, and enjoy the beautiful view that can not be seen on land instead.
Breathing in the fresh air with the smell of the ocean, I felt so relieved and relaxed. For a time, I forgot all the annoyances that I have in life, my company, my dreadful love life... I just want to keep this moment forever and run away from reality. Antonio introduced the different facilities of his cruise to me with excitement as we walked along the deck, but to be honest, I was not interested in those different rooms that were used to test those girls or clean them.
‘You are lucky as we got some really hot girls this time. I keep them personally and they are not for sale. Do you want to check them? I can give them to you as a gift if you are into some particular chick.’
‘Come on man, you know I’m not interested in those creepy games that you play with your girls.’
As a healthy man in his 30s, Antonio has several hot girls as his personal s*x partner, or s*x slaves to be precise. He had a mansion especially built for his slaves, and he tried every weird and creepy s*x position the way that you can find on a porn website. One thing, however, he won’t keep those poor girls for long, after he got bored with them, he will sell them to a brothel or other place.
‘Come here, Stephen, I want you to have a look at this.’ As we walked by a room that belongs to a room on the lower deck, Antonio stopped and pointed at the window.
‘What’s so special about it?’ It’s just a normal window of a normal room, so I asked.
‘Just have a look closely.’
With my face close to the glass of the window, I took a look clearly inside the room. To my surprise, what I saw was dozens of steel cages, each with a naked girl inside. Their hands were handcuffed, and their feet were all tied to the edge of the cage.
‘Antonio, you dog, can’t you provide them with better facilities? They are human beings anyway. Oddly, Antonio didn’t give me any response, so I took a close look at the girls. It seemed like they were all suffering, some were sobbing, and some were rubbing their bodies on the ground in a strange way. I can’t believe that he drugged them with an aphrodisiac. Just as I was about to tease Antonio about it, I suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar face.
No way...
How could she be here?
It can’t be...
Or, is that really her?
