The Luna Fighter

Chapter 1 giving you up for payment

Carla’s P.O.V

I looked from my mother to my father in complete and utter shock. My mother stood at 5.1 with long dark hair and hazel eyes, while my father was a tall man at almost six foot tall with short brown hair and brown eyes. My father stood in the middle of the room with his arms crossed over his chest, while I tried to process what they had just told me.

“YOU DID WHAT?! WHY DID YOU GIVE ME AWAY?!! WHAT DID I DO THAT WAS SO WRONG THAT YOU WOULD DO THIS TO ME?!!!” I yelled at the top of my lungs, looking between my mother and father. How could they do this to me? Their only daughter?

“Carla, you will do what I say. I am the man of this house and what I say goes. We owe a lot of money and I can't pay it back because there are no jobs for a side man that is a werewolf.” My dad replied, making me roll my eyes. He’s the man of the house, yeah right, some man that he has to sell his own f*****g daughter.

“Mom, talk some sense into your husband. He can't just swap me because he owes these people money. I’m not an object.” I said, looking to my mom to back me up. I didn't feel comfortable calling him my dad anymore because no dad would ever do this to his daughter, no matter how much debt he is in. I looked at my mom, but she just sighed, leaving me gobsmacked.

“Actually honey, yes, he can and he did. They will be here shortly.” My mom said, siding with her husband instead of me.

“HONEY?! SERIOUSLY, YOU'RE CALLING ME HONEY WHEN YOUR SIDING WITH HIM?!!! YOU'RE USING ME AS REPAYMENT FOR THE MONEY THAT YOU OWE!! HOW DARE YOU CALL ME HONEY AND AS FAR AS MAN OF THE HOUSE GOES, YEAH f*****g RIGHT!!! WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TRYING TO KID?! THE MAN OF THE HOUSE PROTECTS THE HOUSE AND ALL THE PEOPLE IN IT, HE DOESNT HIDE BEHIND HIS f*****g DAUGHTER AND EXPECT HER TO REPAY HIS f*****g DEBTS BECAUSE HE IS f*****g USELESS!!!!” I screamed at them both, huffing at the end. I crossed my arms over my chest and stormed upstairs before either of my parents had a chance to argue or reply to me. I stormed into my room and threw myself on my bed, screaming into my pillows. Why the hell did they do this? Why would they borrow money when they knew they wouldn't be able to pay it back? This is so f*****g stupid. Some f*****g parents they are, I thought to myself as I kicked and punched the bed. I was so angry, so in shock and so defeated that I completely tired myself out, but I didn't even realise that I had fallen asleep until I felt someone grab my ankles and drag me off my bed. I rushed to open my eyes, but a cloth bag was quickly put over my head and my hands were tied behind my back.

“MOMMMMMMMM!!!! DADDDDDDDD!!!! HELP ME!!! PLEASE!!!! HELP ME!!!” I screamed out, but then I felt my mothers touch on my shoulder. She was right beside me, watching everything that was happening to me.

“Hush girl, you will be fine. Just do what they tell you and do what they want, you’ll be just fine.” My mother said, trying to soothe me but all she did was piss me off.

“ARE YOU f*****g KIDDING ME?!!!! HUSH?!! IM BEING f*****g KIDNAPPED YOU STUPID f*****g b***h AND YOUR LETTING IT HAPPEN!!!! ARE YOU SERIOUSLY THIS f*****g DELUSIONAL OR JUST THAT CRUEL?!!!!” I screamed out, shocked by what she had just said. How could she let this happen to me? How was she alright with all of this? I suddenly felt a and hit right across my face, so hard that I saw black spots and then nothing but darkness as I was knocked out. I woke up Goddess only knows how long and it felt like I was moving, but not actually me moving. I guess I was in the back of a car or van or something and from the sounds of whimpering around me and the smells of the others, I would guess I was with other girls, but I wasn't too sure how many there were as I still had the bag over my head. Suddenly I felt a hand on my arm, which made me jump slightly at first, but the touch was soft and that made me relax as much as was possible in this situation.

“Who are you? Why am I here? Where are you taking me?” I asked, trying to judge who was here with me.

“My name is Gabi. I...I don't know why you are here or where they are taking us, but I feel like I’ve been in this thing for days, so I’m guessing that we are pretty far away from where I was.” Gabi replied, her voice barely above a whisper. She sounded scared and if she had already been in this vehicle for days it made me wonder how much longer we had to travel and what was going to happen when we got there.

“Who are they? I didn’t get to see them before this stupid bag was put over my head. Why are you here?” I asked, curious as to who had kidnapped me. I heard Gabi sigh as a few of the others sniffled, obviously crying or trying to hold back their sobbing.

“I don't know who they are, they did the same to me and I have been like this ever since. They just tell us to shut up and we don't hear anything else. I’m here because my father killed one of their guys, so he gave me up for payment. Why are you here?” Gabi asked, making me sigh.

“My dad borrowed money that he couldn't pay back, so he gave me up as payment, which really pisses me off.” I replied and then suddenly we felt the vehicle stop and then a door open and close, as we started to move again. From the sound of the engine when the door opened it sounded like we were in some sort of truck. I listened trying to see if I could hear any noises that would give me a clue as to where we were, but then I heard someone clear their throat.

“When we get to where we are going your hoods will be taken off your heads. We will line you up and you will stay in line or you will be punished. There are going to be others there that will be looking at you and bidding on you. If you are mated to someone there, then he or she will take you off the stage and you will be theirs. Other than that you will be sold to the highest bidder. You will shut up and not say a word or you will be punished. You will be taken to have baths and get dressed in what is provided. If you try to escape you will die. Do I make myself clear?” The man asked, but everyone stayed silent. No one dared to say a word for fear of being punished.

“All I want is a yes sir if you heard me.” The man said, sighing.

“Yes sir.” We all replied together. I decided it would be best to cooperate, at least until I had figured out where I was going and who I was dealing with.

“Good, now I don't want to hear a word out of any of you until we have reached our destination. If you know what's best for you, you will shut the hell up.” The man said, making some of the other girls whimper, including Gabi and myself.
