Chapter 1 " The Auction

Virginia 

 When I entered the Season Hot club with Mariana, nervousness took over my whole body, but I closed my eyes and thought about the money that could change my parents' lives and when I opened them again, I filled myself with self-confidence and went for it. I would do it.  

Mariana had discovered a secret club, which had a very unusual form of entertainment for those who had a lot of money. 

The club offered auctions where men could bid on various types of "goods", from a date with the woman of their choice, to a night of sex, or even someone's virginity, which could be from either a woman or a man.  

Although the practice was something that I could consider very grotesque, all the people who were at the auction had come on their own, just as my friend and I had come, but of course the motivation was money, since the values could reach thousands of reals.  

I understood that although everyone was there of their own free will, the fact that a man was bidding for sex or, worse, virginity at such an auction said a lot about him.  

To think that I would have to give myself to such a person brought a shiver down my spine. I focused again on the money, it was what was driving me to be there that night.  

Looking around the room, I noticed that there was a very "normal" bar and that the place was very busy. I looked at Mariana and she nodded, indicating that we should go to the counter, where there were some people serving the customers. 

After she told us where we should go, we went in that direction, where we were instructed to look for Pamela, who was in charge of organizing the auctions. 

"Are you Luan friends, who will participate in the virgin auction? ” 

The woman was dressed very sensually and was absolutely beautiful, and she looked at us both appraisingly when we asked if she was Pamela.  

"Yes, that's us. " Mariana answered, and her voice showed the uncertainty in her words.”  

"We are totally up for it." I decided to intervene.  

Luan, who worked with Mariana in a retail store downtown, was also a waiter at the club and explained to us that they only accepted people who showed that they were really willing to go all the way with that deal, because they didn't want to risk that the "well" auctioned would end up giving up the bargain.  

"As you know, I am Pamela. I'm going to guide you through our auction and you can back out at any time." She spoke nicely, showing her satisfaction with our confirmation. "However, after I go on stage, you will no longer have this option. ” 

We looked at each other with a certain fear, Mariana and I, but I made a discreet gesture to her, to let her know that I would remain firm until the end of the story.  

"As Virginia said, we don't intend to give up." My friend assured me, now in a firmer manner. 

"Come with me, then.” 

We followed her down a long, narrow corridor that followed the decoration of the whole space, in shades of silver and white, all very bright, totally the opposite of what I imagined for an environment of that type, and we quickly arrived in front of a door, which she opened and told us to enter.

It was a very spacious room with several people inside, all very young and in various stages of nudity.  

I understood that the room would be a kind of dressing room and that the people there should participate in the "attractions" of the night.  

As soon as Mariana told me about the club and what was happening there, my first thought was to refuse, because I was afraid that someone would see me in that place and the story would spread, reaching my parents, who were already elderly and would be very sad if they knew what I was about to do.  

But Luan told us that everyone who was there wore a mask to preserve their identity and this made me calmer.  However, in that room there was no one wearing a mask yet and I was afraid I would meet someone I knew. As unlikely as it was, anything was possible.  

I took a good look at everyone and recognized no one, which made me sigh with relief.   

"Did you bring the clothes, as we instructed over the phone?” 

"Yes, it's here with us." I answered.  

"Good. You can change here and when it's time to perform in our ballroom, I'll come and get you myself. ” 

She walked out and left us in the living room, insecurity once again wanting to take over.  

"I'm nervous." I confessed to Mariana.  

"I am too, but let's do as you have repeated all week, from the moment I told you about this crazy possibility." She said with a nervous smile on her face. "Let's stay calm and think only about the money.”  

We approached the other people, since we were still standing near the entrance door, but without holding any kind of dialogue, just going to the reserved, fitting room style that existed in the room and began our transformation.  

Pamela had oriented us to bring with us an outfit that would make us as sensual as possible, but not lingerie, as Mariana and I feared it would, so we took advantage of the fact that I worked at a gala costume rental store and selected magnificent and sexy dresses.  

The one I chose was red and matched my olive skin beautifully, as did my eyes. I was of medium height and my body was full of curves, my legs were shapely and were visible through the slit in the skirt of the dress and my breasts were full and perky, which was perfectly enhanced by the generous neckline of the dress.  

Mariana began to make me up when the first people started to be called up. The great majority were women, but there were also men, and they were all called before the two of us.  

"Very beautiful friend of mine!" Mariana said as I finished my make-up, trying to look calm, but she was not.  

"You also look very beautiful, Mari." I also pretended not to care.   

Pamela arrived at that moment and made a discreet sign, asking us to accompany her again. She called two other girls who were also in the same room as us.  

We were taken to a discreet door at the end of another corridor, different from the one we had entered, and there the decoration was darker, in shades of dark brown and beige.  

"You should wait for me here." She said, coming through the door and leaving us to wait for her. "Put these on, please.” 

We were each given a mask, just like the ones worn at a masquerade ball, and waited for her return in silence. Nobody said anything, apparently the anxiety for what was about to happen had taken over us.   

Soon Pamela returned, opened the door and asked us to go through it, and we entered what seemed to be a stage.  

I looked around and everything was quite dark, and you couldn't see the people there.  

Despite this, I noticed that there were tables scattered all over the place, except for the stage where we were standing. The stage, unlike the rest of what seemed to be a hall, was completely lit up, highlighting us, but still the lights were diffuse.  

"We have four girls here willing to offer something of value in exchange for the right amount." Pamela spoke into a microphone. "So, who will give the most? " she asked, flashing a beaming smile.”  

She then called one of the girls and introduced her as "Spring", Mari was introduced as "Winter", the other as "Autumn" and I was "Summer". She opened the auction with the Winter girl, and the suggested amount soon went sky high.   

So it was with the three before me, and they all got something around three hundred thousand reais.  

I was even more anxious for my turn to come, because it was a lot of money for me, and it would be possible to do so much with that amount that I didn't think of anything else, I forgot any nervousness and just waited for my moment.   

This moment came and with each bid, my heart beat faster and faster. I was already feeling bad, so nervous, when I realized that a dispute had begun between two men for me! 

As I had been in that environment for a while, my vision got used to it and I could see more things and realized that every time one of them, the one wearing a light blue long"sleeved shirt with a darker tie, made a bid, the other, a man wearing a dark gray suit with a red tie, increased the amount, going ahead.  

The amount had already reached five hundred thousand reais, and my breathing was following the rhythm of my heartbeat.   

"Five hundred and fifty." The man in the blue shirt shouted in a decisive tone that sent a shiver down my spine, which made me feel dismayed.  

"I give six hundred." Then the guy in the suit and tie spoke up.  

It took me a while to believe what was happening. They were talking about hundreds of thousands of dollars as if it were something trivial. To me, it was a lot of money!  

Even if I pay the percentage that the club established, corresponding to ten percent of the value, I would still have a lot of money.  

"One Million Reais." The man in the blue shirt said this and looked at the other man, looking very determined.   

I looked from one to the other, the shivering feeling making me weak. What had I gotten myself into?  

"One million Reais. Can I have more?" Pamela asked, looking at everyone.  

In front of the silence that had formed, Pamela closed the auction and instructed the "winners" to look for her in the management office to make the respective payments and receive their "well". 

"One million Reais! ” 

I was amazed at the amount I had managed to achieve. It was enough money to do something perfect for my family. I could start a business, I wouldn't have to work so far away from home. There were so many possibilities! 

I knew that I still needed to fulfill my part of the bargain and that it would not be easy, but I would hold my breath and just think about the money.  That amount wouldn't make me rich, but it would make my life a lot easier, and this fact alone made me euphoric.  

"You are going to win a million Reais, friend!" Mari whispered in my ear as she hugged me happily.   

"You have three hundred thousand, Mari!" I squeezed her in my arms.   

"I'm very happy, Vi. We will be able to open our own clothing store exclusively designed by me. ” 

"Yes, It will be wonderful.” 

"Come this way, girls." Pamela called us. 

 We needed to move away from each other, and we looked at each other with understanding, for it was time to face what we had made ourselves available for, and we each went in the direction indicated by Pamela.  

"Each one of you will stay in the bedroom named after the station you represent.”  

"Now comes the hardest part." Mari commented, faking a shudder.  

"We will think all the time about the money we will get and the plans we have and everything will go by very fast" I said to try to calm my friend down.  

But I really intended to act that way, and it was with this thought that I entered the bedroom that had the word "Summer" on the door.
