Clara (21) had been in a container with other girls for a week, She couldn't stop crying after finding out that she had been kidnapped, Someone came to her and claimed to be an agent from a famous agency, offering her to become a professional model, and that was her dream.
But Clara ended up in the worst place in her life. When she was taken to another place and held captive with girls who had the same fate as her."Time to eat, girls," A man came in and gave them bread and water to eat. All the girls took their part except Clara, she was still silent in the corner of the room.“You, lil kitty! Eat! They don't like seeing skinny kittens!” The man said before laughing evilly and leaving the place, there was the sound of the door being locked from outside and Clara just looked down and cried.“Your crying won't get us out of here, it's been a week since you've been here,” A woman said, Judy, she's been there a month.She was desperate for her life, every week there would always be a betting event, where many VVIPs would come to place their bets.There will be 5 people taken out of the container to be sold, and quite a few will return to that place. It seems that VVIPs have special standards for providing their offers.All the girls who were kidnapped were given the name Kitten, they were not treated well, except when they were being sold, like now.The door opened and several men appeared there with big, scary bodies."Kristen, Judy, Nola, Mia, and Clara, come with me," One of the men said, the tattoos on both arms made him look scarier than the others.The four girls got up and left but not Clara, she was still crying at the end of the room and didn't realize her name was being called until a man approached her and dragged her out of the container.“Noo!!! Let me go! I don't want to go!! Let me go!!!" Clara, who was struggling, continued to hit the man's arm but it seemed useless, she looked like a kitten playing with a lion.They were taken to a room filled with expensive clothes and dressing tables, there were several people there who seemed to be helping them with their make-up and making the VVIPs amazed by their appearance."Let me go!!" Clara came last and the man pushed Clara's body until she fell to the floor.“Shut your mouth, Kitten! You can go now! And don't come back here again, just pray that someone chooses a lil bitch like you!” The man said and left, these words were aimed at Clara who was still sitting on the floor crying.But Judy helped her stand up and looked at her, she had repeatedly told Clara not to show her weak side in front of the kidnappers or they could hurt Clara.“How many times do I have to tell you? We're going to get out of here, put our best foot forward, and get out of here," Judy said."This is a trap, we will never get out of this trap!" Clara said."At least that place is better than this," Kristen said and went to get changed."Listen to me carefully, you are beautiful, and your body is nice and hot, I'm sure many will make offers for you, seduce them and when they are weak, go as far as possible, You can do it," Judy said."But-"“Clara! There's no time for buts," Judy said and hugged her before walking over to her makeup artist, and another makeup artist walked over to Clara."Hi, come with me, I have something special for you," the woman said and took Clara's hand to take her in front of a mirror.She showed a fairly transparent silver mini dress, surprising Clara because she had never worn clothes like that."Wear it, you will look main in this dress, don't worry, you can have this dress if you sell it, it's very expensive," the woman whispered at the end of her sentence."No, I can't wear this," Clara said."Why not? Do you want to go back in that container with another girl? If I were you, I would wear it and pose in front of them, I have to get out of here somehow, come on, we only have 15 minutes before you take your number to appear," the woman said and helped Clara put on the clothes.After 15 minutes, Clara and the others finally left the room and lined up in front of the large glass room. Clara got number 3, she was very nervous because she could see what would happen to her friends who went first."Judy, come on," A man asked Judy to come into the room, and to Clara's surprise she saw many pairs of eyes focused on Judy who was standing in the middle of the glass room.Their gazes were very scary, it made Clara cry again, her heart was beating fast, she was nervous and afraid. Everyone cheered for Judy, after 3 times Judy entered the glass room finally that day she was sold.A guy got it for 5 million, and it's not worth anything. Judy turned to Clara and smiled before leaving with the guard assigned to take Judy.She waited for a long time until it was finally her turn, her legs felt heavy when her name was called. She felt very scared standing in the middle there.“Kitten! Hurry up! They've been waiting!” the man said and grabbed Clara and pushed her into the middle of the glass room.When the lights were turned on, she could see the faces of the men in front of her. It's very scary because they all look obscene."Her name is Clara, she is 21 years old, her hair is slightly curly brown, she has rosy cheeks and plump supple lips, her weight is ideal with the perfect height, and what makes it even more special, she is a virgin, and now the bidding is open at 1 million," the host said.“2 million,” The man on the right side said."3 million." The man on the side above said.“5 million,” The man on the other side said."7 million." The old man in front of him said.Clara just cried and tried to cover her body with both hands, her body was shaking and she was afraid to lift her head until something surprising happened."50 million," A man from the VVIP room raised his betting card."Cash," The man said and his eyes met Clara's who was surprised by the price he offered."Oh, interesting." The man said and grinned at Clara.To be continued…Clara was in a black BMW car, she was just sitting in the back seat alone with a driver and bodyguard in the front seat, Clara was very scared at that time, she was still trying to cover her thighs that were too visible with her hands.She was uncomfortable with clothes like that, her tears kept rolling down Clara's rosy cheeks, She missed her parents and hoped someone would find her and take her away from this dark world.Not long after, someone came in and sat next to Clara, a man with a cold aura, his body smelled of alcohol and cigarette smoke. Clara didn't want to look at him, she just lowered her head.“Hi Kitten, I'm here, what do you see on your lap?” Steven touched Clara's thigh, making her startled and she tried to avoid the touch."No, please, please let me go," Clara said while sobbing and still busy covering her thighs from Steven's hands.“Let you go? What about the money I have paid them? Can you replace my money? 50 million, cash," Steven said in a cold tone."Please s
Clara was already lying on her bed, it was already the middle of the night, she had covered herself with a blanket, there were no clothes she could wear that night, all the nightgowns she had were too revealing for her and she was not comfortable wearing them, so Clara only wore a t-shirt and shorts for sleep.The innocent girl stared at the ceiling, she missed her parents and hoped they would report her to the police and find her before it was too late. Her tears flowed down her cheeks again, she wanted to go back to that day when a man approached her and claimed to be an agent and managed to fool her.Still deep in thought, suddenly there was a knock on the door and the door opened, Eva appeared there with two guards, scared Clara, and sat on her bed.“Eva, what are you doing here with them? I want to sleep and-""Miss Clara, Mr. Steven wants you to come to his room, right now,” Eva said."What? No! I don't want to go anywhere, I'm tired and I want to sleep," Clara said Eva gave the
Steven was in his office, with a cigarette in his hand he stared intently at the two men in front of him who were kneeling and begging for mercy."So, what confession do you want to tell me?" Steven said“Mr. Steven, we...we want to quit this job," A man said and Steven was still smoking his cigarette.“And?” Steven said.“Can we quit this job? You promised to set free us after 2 years and we've been here almost 3 years, we-""Well, you remember my promise well, yes You both can quit your jobs, After all, I have no reason to keep you both here, especially you, using my drugs without my permission for a year, coming to my club, and hiring my striptease dancers with my salary give it, do you think your debt is paid off with all your behavior?" Steven said and they looked shocked. Steven never came to his factory or club or gambling place, but that didn't mean he didn't know what was going on there.Steven stood up from his chair and walked over to those who were still kneeling, their ac
Clara didn't do anything after she returned to her room, she just sat on her bed and looked out the window. Clara has been very afraid of the night since what happened to her yesterday. She felt disgusted with herself. Clara was only wearing her bathrobe at that time because she didn't want to wear the lingerie that Steven had asked for. It made her look like a bitch and she didn't like that. It was getting late, but Clara was startled by the sound of a door opening behind her, it was Steven, the man she was so afraid of. "Oh that's where my kitten appears," Steven said and approached Clara who lowered her head because she was too afraid to see Steven. "What happened? Why don't you want to see me? And why are you still wearing your bathrobe? Hm?” Steven said and he lifted Clara's chin so he could meet her beautiful eyes. "Please...please let me go," Clara said and Steven just grinned. “Go? Where are you going in the middle of the night huh?” Steven said. “I…I have to meet my p
In the room, Steven looked very frustrated, he had done it, he didn't know why but he could no longer restrain himself when he was with Clara at that time. He did. Steven stood in front of the mirror and looked at his messy self. He cleaned his mouth which was full of blood and could still taste the sweetness of Clara's blood at that moment.“Shit!! Who's she?" Steven said.Since the first time he saw Clara in the glass box, Steven felt different, his eyes continued to pay attention to Clara's beauty, which looked different from the others.Clara's innocence amazed him, even the wolf inside Steven agreed that Clara had something special, which he only saw as a wolf. When Steven touched her body, he felt like he had met his soulmate, his eyes shone beautifully when he looked at Clara, emerald green, a color that Steven had never shown to any woman before.But Clara's presence can make Steven become the Alpha he should be, touching Clara with his heart, not his lust.***Clara was still
As days passed, Clara realized that something had happened to her, she felt her body getting weaker and always felt nauseous when she smelled a scent that bothered her. Clara looked pale and Steven never saw her again. No one knows why Steven seems to ignore Clara.That night, Eva came to bring porridge as Clara had asked for. She felt that her mouth felt bitter and her stomach felt very nauseous."Miss Clara, here is your porridge, I also made hot tea to relieve your nausea," Eva said."Thank you," Clara said.“Miss Clara, your condition has gotten worse since Mr. Steven left, he hasn't come back here and I can't contact the doctor to check your condition," Eva said."He goes?" Clara said."Yeah, I think it's been almost a month since he left this mansion, that's why he never saw you, right?" Eva said."Yes, and—-" Clara covered her mouth when she smelled the porridge near her. Eva immediately took the porridge away from Clara and put it on the table."If you continue like this you m
Steven was busy sipping wine at his desk, he kept thinking about what Larry said about his mother, Kara. He hated the woman for abandoning him and his father at their worst moment.Even after Kara left, Steven never heard from her again, nor did she ever look for Steven and his father, Gary. Steven couldn't believe what Larry was saying, it all seemed like nonsense to his ears.'Knock...knock..'"Come in," Steven said and a man came in, a bodyguard who had worked for a long time at Steven's factory."What is it?" Steven said he took the last sip of wine before putting the glass on the table.“There's a problem with the machine, sir,” the Guard said.“What? That's the best machine I bought, If a problem occurs it's not with the machine but with who uses it," Steven said and the bodyguard just lowered his head."I'm sorry sir, but—"“No buts, you know what you have to do, who uses that machine?” Steven said.“Noah Burke, sir,” the Guard said."Oh, poor son of the Burke family, punish hi
Clara wanted to get ready for bed when Steven suddenly came into her room, startling her and sitting on her bed.“What…what are you doing here?” Clara said.“Hi Kitten, did you miss me?” Steven said, he walked over to Clara on the bed and sat there."N-No…please I just want to sleep tonight," Clara said."Then maybe it's my baby who misses me," Steven said."I'm not pregnant," Clara said."Come on Clara, don't make things difficult for yourself, you can feel it, your baby is in there, in your perfect tummy," Steven said.“What have you done to me?” Clara said."I only marked you, as Alpha I have to mark what should be mine, and that's you," Steven said."Why me?" Clara said."That's an easy question because it's you, an Alpha doesn't have a special reason to mark his mate, I only know if it's you," Steven said.“I miss my parents, I hate being here, I hate this,” Clara said."Oh don't cry Kitten, you will meet them if you do everything I want, remember, you are already mine, so I will
Clara propped against the window, looking out at the gray clouds drifting across the sky. The rain fell gently, tracing on the glass like tears she no longer wished to weep. Ruby sat in the middle of the room, running light fingers over the music box Steven had given her. Its gentle song had been a solace to her, a gentle lullaby that had, for an instant, pushed aside her nightmares.Three evenings had passed since the present was received, and ever since, Ruby had slept wondrously. Clara wished she hated the man who sent it—hated tearing the note into pieces and damning his name. But she just could not deprive herself of what it was accomplishing with her daughter.And that was the worst which frightened her most.She had no idea where she was anymore. Her hard, cold heart, lie-resistant and now broken at such easy giving. Steven lingered in their lives like a ghost—lost, but still haunting all the glanced-over looks Ruby glances back over her shoulder at the door, all the bursts of
The clock on the wall quietly ticked by with the stillness of night as Clara remained sitting on the bed, her fingers lightly sweeping Ruby's forehead. The child convulsed again, sleep interrupted by something Clara was unable to decipher — an intensifying terror night after night."Mommy…" Ruby woke in her sleep, little fists clutching the blanket as though it alone restrained her.Clara felt her heart break for the hundredth time that week.“I’m here, baby,” she whispered, pressing a soft kiss on her daughter’s temple.It'd been weeks since they'd gone out. Weeks since Clara'd instructed Steven never to find them again. But even as far removed as they'd attempted to become, the outlines of that house — of all that'd transpired — pursued. Clara sensed it in Ruby's fidgeting, in the haunted way she inspected the periphery of the room as though someone would appear from it.Clara slowly lowered herself beside Ruby, wrapped her in a hug, and attempted to warm her shivering. Only warmth,
Morning light struggled to get through Steven's office window, dense folds of fabric, and flooded golden warmth into the room. Steven was awake. His mind had gone round and round all night. Ruby's small face before him as he had seen—how she concealed herself in Clara, weeping, her shakie little hands. But still, he could hear the call of "Papa" from her. The guilt had left, now supplanted with lust. It was a flame that burned within him, one that no whiskey or authority could extinguish.Steven sat forward in his chair, his eyes red-rimmed, a cigarette burning between his fingers. The smoke curled around, slow and heavy, just as the heavy thoughts rested upon his mind.He had stuffed the present—which was Ruby's favorite plush toy, a hand-carved music box, and a name-engraved necklace alongside Clara's. He wasn't trying to bribe her. He wasn't trying to purchase her back from him with gold coins. He just wanted them to realize that he still didn't forget them—never. That he hadn't re
Sunlight streaming in through the drapes gently illuminated the room where Clara sat beside Ruby. Her daughter's fever had finally subsided after a sleepless, endless night, but a thin strand of unease still nestled in Clara's breast. She combed Ruby's hair gently, her shaking fingers lined with weariness.A gentle knock on the door."Clara," Diana replied. "There is a man at the gate. He claims he is here making a delivery to you."Clara stood up from her chair, scowling in distrust. "A delivery? Who from?"Diana shrugged. "He wouldn't tell me. But he did leave his name… Steven."Clara's heart constricted.Steven.She stayed there not wanting to disturb Ruby and departed. Standing outside was a tall, dominating man in an overcoat made of black cloth, sunglasses hiding his face although it was early morning. Next to him stood a black automobile. Clara was not familiar with him, yet the cold calculated look brought so forcefully back Steven's world."You are Clara," the man said courte
Clara clasped the windowpane, her gaze drifting over the darkening sky as rain crashed against the pane like secrets struggled so urgently in her head. The world outside was as bitter and mournful as the things swirling round her head. Within, Ruby flung in bed, crying thin wails that caught at Clara's own sorrowful heart.Things were not what they ought to have been.Since they'd set out from Steven's estate, nothing had felt right. Ruby cried herself to bed each evening, waking up with a freezing scream, with no idea what terror afflicted her small body. Clara attempted it all—singing to Ruby, reading aloud to her, cuddling her—but to no avail. Ruby's night terrrors did not abate, and Clara's own sense of helplessness just increased."She needs him," Diana had whispered that morning, looking at Ruby with concern. "Perhaps you should have Steven go see her."Clara had stormed. "No, Mom. He kicked us out. Told us never to return. He made the decision."Diana had sighed, but remained s
As days passed, Clara felt that something wasn’t right with Ruby and her life, there was a feeling that she couldn't describe in words. The fear that every night always becomes a nightmare for her. That also seemed to be what Ruby felt, since they returned to Diana's house, there wasn't a single day when Ruby could sleep soundly, even Clara's presence couldn't calm her down.Diana had asked Clara to ask Steven to come because she felt that maybe Ruby missed her father by her side, but Clara immediately refused, she felt that Steven had thrown her out and asked them never to return to the mansion, after all, that was what Clara had wanted for a long time.Clara's presence in the mansion with Steven was only because she was tied to something, Ruby was the reason she was there, she could have reported everything to the police but was she able to put Steven in prison, since she saw how strong Steven was with all the wealth and power he had. Steven could easily eliminate someone and cover
At that time, Steven returned to meet Ray somewhere. He had been waiting for that man for a long time until Ray finally came over to him.“Sorry I'm late,” Ray said."I won't waste any more time, I will help you find Angel," Steven said."Thanks, Steven, I know you will help me find it, what can I do?" Ray said."Tell me who is the person who took advantage of it, you said I know who that person is and he did this on purpose to bait me," Steven said."That's Leo, I'm sure you know that man because Angel once said it and-""What? Leo? Since when did Angel work for him? And…” Steven stopped short when he remembered something Angel said when they met."What is it?" Ray said."Nothing, if it's Leo, then he knows what steps I will take after this, he's like my shadow, he always finds out what my weaknesses are and is ready to stab me in the back," Steven said.“Then what should we do? I'm sure we can't just stay here without certainty like this, I'm sure Angel is definitely in trouble, she
Clara seemed lost in thought in her daughter's bed, many thoughts were bothering her, and she didn't even know why these thoughts felt like they were entangling her, making her space feel tight. Her meeting with Steven was not a good thing, only trauma left a mark on Clara's life regarding Steven.But there was a space in Clara's heart that seemed unable to make her hate the Alpha, the don, that much. Clara looked at her daughter, Ruby. Her sleeping face looked similar to her father's. Even though Clara never wanted to admit it.'Knock..knock..'"Come in," Clara said and Steven was there, Clara could feel the Alpha's presence, but she didn't want to look at him.“Clara, I want to talk to you,” Steven said."What is it?" Clara said.“Come with me for a moment,” Steven said."No, I have to accompany Ruby," Clara said."This is an order, meet me in the reading room now," Steven said and left Ruby's room. His voice sounded serious, she even felt that Steven's attitude was quite cold towar
Clara woke up that morning from her deep sleep, she could feel a warmth in her body that she rarely felt in the morning, a warmth that made her very comfortable, Clara didn't feel like opening her eyes that morning, she wanted to continue sleeping and enjoy her morning for a long time.But when she realized that the warmth she was getting was not from the morning sun entering her room, her eyes immediately opened and found Steven's face who was nearby. She could even feel the warm breath of the Alpha who was sleeping next to her.Clara's initial reaction should have been to push Steven's body away from her and shout at him but what Clara did was the opposite. She also didn't understand what was happening to her body, but being in Steven's arms was the most comfortable thing she felt. She found her body calm and peaceful as if all the problems in her life had just disappeared.Clara just stared straight at the Alpha who was still asleep at that time, she noticed the curves of his face,
