"Sabiana!" A harsh voice startled me while I was scraping the last grains of rice from our container.

It was strange, considering I had just bought rice yesterday, after working a side job at the Montebello mansion. I put up with Senorita Claudia's rough attitude just to put food on the table for my two younger siblings, but how bitter it is to have nothing to cook once again? How am I supposed to feed my siblings? Where did the rice go? Was it stolen? By whom? My salary is gone. Papa took the little money had saved for our basic needs, like the food we eat. I was hoping he wouldn't touch the food meant for my siblings, but here I am, left with barely a fourth of a cup of rice in our storage.

I looked over at the canned goods. As far as I remember, I also bought eggs and sardines. It's all I could regularly afford to feed Bambi and Bamba, and now it’s gone, too.

How frustrating!

"Sabiana!" Papa shouted.

I looked toward the kitchen door, which was only covered by a green curtain. His face was angry, and he was drenched in sweat. He must've walked back here to our shanty from the gambling den. That place is practically his home now. He doesn't even care to think about us, not even for the sake of my two younger siblings. I'd be content if he just left enough food for them. They're only twelve, and unlike me, they're too young to find odd jobs to survive our living.

"Fix yourself, Sabiana," Papa said, grabbing my arm and pulling me.

"W-Wait, Pa. W-What? I'm about to cook for my siblings."

"What are you going to cook, the pot itself?" he mocked.

Anger boiled inside me, and tears began to gather in my eyes as I noticed my siblings watching, scared and huddled together. Even though I know Papa favors them more than he does to me, I love them dearly. I am not jealous of them. I am even happy that they don't have to suffer like I do.

"If you hadn't taken the rice, I would have something to cook for Bamba and Bambi!" I snapped back, only for him to turn and slap me.

His face was doomed, dark in anger.

The twins began crying, and I felt dizzy, almost deafened. I bit back a sob as half of my face went numb.

"You have no right to complain. Remember, I could leave you all any day. Your mother left us when she cheated on me, and I'm the one who stuck around with you," he yelled.

"Now come with me. I have a debt to Miss Villagracia that you need to pay off! Serve her, and I’ll handle feeding those little brats."

"Sabby!" my two siblings sobbed, and I began to cry, too.

I turned to them, "I’ll be back. Sabby just has to work for a bit. When I return, I'll have food," I said, smiling at them with tears in my eyes.

That was all that mattered to us, poorer than mice — to be able to eat at least twice a day. I work hard so I can finish school because I want to pull us out of poverty. I want my siblings not to suffer this hardship that I am suffering right now. What could I expect from their mother? Digna is a prostitute who left the twins long ago. She abandoned them when they were just babies. She left without a second thought, as though she didn’t leave children behind. I learned to care for newborn twins at a very young age. If I couldn't afford milk because Papa didn’t provide, they drank cooked rice water, even if it was the cheapest kind. I can’t even fathom what kind of life we have, or why we were dealt such an unlucky hand.

"I’ll be back. Don't cry," I told Bamba and Bambi again.

They nodded, and only then did I feel some relief.

It was a promise to them that I couldn't keep...

...

Papa and I got into a van, sleek and black, brand new. Inside, I saw a woman with very short red hair. She wore a leather mini skirt and a black cropped top.

I just stared at her.

"Did your daughter even bathe?" she asked Papa with disgust.

"She was busy, Miss V, so she hasn't freshened up. You can make her clean up at your house," he replied.

I kept looking at the two of them. If I judged her by her appearance, she looked like a woman in the nightlife, but I didn't want to assume. Maybe that’s just how she dresses.

"What else would I expect?" Miss V sneered.

"Do a good job, Sabiana," Papa barked at me. "I owe Miss V a lot. If you want your siblings to eat, you better work well! Understand?"

I nodded. I know how to clean a house. Even if our own home is shabby, I know how to handle a mansion since I clean at the Montebello mansion.

I THOUGHT I was going to be a housemaid, but I was wrong. Tonight, I found myself in a casa. They made me wear a white bra and white panties. They said this casa is on an island, so there’s no escape. They brought us here by a yatch, and though I was nearly dying from fear, I had no choice. Every time I resisted, they would cover my nose with a cloth. I’d black out, and when I woke up, I’d barely remember a thing. They did this to me so many times that I eventually gave up. Fighting back only made things worse. They transformed me over days or maybe even weeks. They fed me fruits and changed everything about me. My bitten-down nails were covered with artificial ones that wouldn’t come off, painted white-tipped and clear-coated. My hair was dyed reddish brown. They scrubbed me down daily and applied all sorts of products. They took care of me meticulously. I should be grateful, but I’m not, because I don’t even know why they’re doing all this.

I have my suspicions, but I can't confirm them. They’re turning me into someone they can sell. I try to stay strong, not to cry, but silent tears fall, especially when I see the other women also crying because they thought they were being hired as maids. At least they were wrong; I was sold by my own father.

I looked down at myself. My outfit made me feel uncomfortable. The men guarding us stared at me. I heard them say that I would bring in the most money for their boss. I didn’t understand why they said that until a doctor came recently, made me undress, and examined me. Among the fifteen women in the room, I was the only virgin.

Now, they’re putting me up for bidding. I thought I’d only see this on TV, but it happens in real life, too. I never expected this, not even in my worst nightmares. I hope I can escape this hell and fulfill my promise to my siblings — that I would come back for them...

I even felt colder now that I finally realized that the bidding was almost over.Somebody just won a virgin. God, please help me. I think I just want to die right this moment.The noise was deafening, and I almost covered myself with my arms. I was nearly naked—wearing a thin, golden-colored pair of panty shorts, paired with a gold-colored bra. Everything on me was gold, right down to my shoes.Gold confetti showered down from the ceiling, a signal that they had chosen me—a virgin woman lusted after by men. What's so special about a virgin? It’s bewildering.I glanced around, crying. The stage was intensely bright, enclosed in glass. It felt like I was in a cylinder, unable to see anything but the red buttons lighting up each time a man placed a bid on me.

Two men dressed in black brought me here, and all that I could do was lift my feet to get on board. My nerves were almost sky-high. Why? Because this was my first time riding helicopter in my entire life. couldn’t tell where this anxiety was coming from. It was overwhelming. I felt like I'd almost lose my breath at any moment. I grabbed the handle with my trembling hands, feeling like my knees could give out at any second."W-Who is about to sit beside me? I am scared!" I blurted out as soon as I sat down. I already felt dizzy even though we were still on the ground and hadn't lifted off yet."Just relax, Miss Sabiana. I'm just delivering the money to Miss V,” one of the men said, but it did nothing to ease my nerves, my fear.I felt like my vision would arken any moment.

    Chapter 3 Lennox I snapped back to reality when I realized how long I’d been staring at the unconscious Sabiana. It’s been so many years, yet I still carry the pain of losing her mother. My wealth never brought me happiness. In my world, everything is filthy. I live in hell—that’s the truth. I never wanted this woman back in my life, yet here she is. How did she end up in my place? Her foolish father sold her. That thought made my jaw clench. Sabiana is mine now. Federico will never take her away from me again. I have better plans for her, and I no longer need to think twice about it. “Bring her to the grand room,” I ordered. The men immediately moved to carry Sabiana upstairs. I turned back to the window, inhaling deeply. “Young master,” Helen called me, and I glanced at her briefly. “Do you have any orders for the girl?” I shook my head. “No. Wait until she wakes up. Just prepare the clothes she’ll need.” “They’re ready, young master. All the clothes you purchased hav

    Chapter 4 A large, handsome man. That’s what I’m seeing right now, standing in front of me, leaving me stunned after bumping into his massive frame. Is he one of the bodyguards of the man who bought me for fifteen million? From what I’ve seen, that rich man truly has the means to spend lavishly, even on a woman with no experience like me. This house looks like a palace, and earlier, I couldn’t figure out where to escape. When I finally found the gate, a group of men arrived, and this guy was one of those I saw in the garage. I snapped out of it when his gaze swept over me. I blinked rapidly, resisting the urge to wrap my robe tighter around myself. “Are you lost?” he asked in a deep voice. Deep, but not like it came from the depths of the earth. His voice was beautiful, as striking as his appearance. “If you’re lost, I can lead you the way—back to your room, Sabiana.” A chill ran down my spine when my name slipped from his lips. It’s infuriating to think that I’m in a pla

Confused, I simply nodded at her."Thank you," I managed to say.She smiled slightly before turning away, leaving me to heave a deep sigh. I knew they understood what I was here for. It was embarrassing to think about, but what could I do? I never wanted to end up here in the first place.I stepped into the bathroom and pushed the slightly ajar door open.

I have to stop.I leaned closer to her ear as her lips slightly parted, tilting her face upward toward me."I don’t have a condom," I whispered, barely suppressing a smile against her ear.She nodded when I looked at her face but quickly avoided my gaze. "L-Let’s just wait," she said hesitantly, but I shook my head."I can pull it out."She looked up at me again, this time with a startled expression."W-What do you mean, pull it out?" she asked, her eyes wide with genuine innocence.

    Chapter 10"ARE you sure about this, Sir?" That was Russel's question when I instructed him to pick up Sabiana from my house.I know what Russel is thinking. He's afraid that the same old nightmare might happen again, and this time to Sabiana. The nightmare I'm referring to was Henrieta."I am sure. Fetch my girl, Russel. She'll be okay," I assured him. "There's nothing for you to be worried about."He nodded before confidently turning his back to me. I stared at his retreating figure, carefully observing his steps. I feel fortunate that aside from my father, someone else in my world cares deeply for me, like a younger brother. I also understand why Russel has a hard time finding a woman to date or take seriously—it's all because of our work.Once Russel left, I returned to the work on my laptop. I couldn’t afford to leave it unfinished right now. Dad wants me to personally send these emails to our clients instead of leaving the task to the secretary. I suddenly paused, remembering w

    Chapter 9I fell onto the mattress beside Sabiana, completely drained after six rounds of sex. The pullout method had worked perfectly—my semen was smeared on her buttocks, lower back, and abdomen. The bed was soaked."Is… is that really safe?" Sabiana asked, her voice uncertain as I tried to catch my breath.She was staring at the ceiling, her own breathing deep and labored."Yes," I said. "I’ve used it before with my ex-wife."Her eyes snapped to me. "Ex-wife? You were married?""EX-wife," I emphasized, making sure to stress the "ex." "We divorced more than 15 years ago. Don’t worry—you’re not my mistress," I said, glancing at her."Not that I’d have any say if I were," she replied, her tone sharp. "You bought me, so what right would I have to refuse this arrangement?""Hmn," I hummed, shrugging. "Fair point, but I’m not married to anyone now. I’m single—no one’s going to cause you trouble.""So… who was your wife? Is she still alive?""Yes. We’re still on good terms. We’re like cas
