Darkness is all he could see and the flashes of white spread across his vision like veins. The smell of cigars and expensive alcohol abused his nose. Where am I? What's going on? He couldn't think of much as he was pulled out of his thoughts by an awful throbbing in the back of his head. The booming sound of laughter and indecent words came to a deafening silence. What came next was a voice speaking over what sounded like a stereo system, it felt as though it could crush his head with how close the speakers must have been.
"Next on the market is a human man." People began talking quietly to themselves. He slowly tried to pull himself off the floor. Shit, I can't move and can't see. The hell is this? He could tell his wrists and ankles were bound. He couldn't see so he had to have a blindfold on or at least something covering his eyes. "He will start at the price of five million dollars. Being you are all well endowed clients you shouldn't have any problems," There was a slight chuckle at the end of the auctioneer's sentence and everyone followed his example and began laughing.
Five million dollars? Seems I'm at an auction. Human trafficking? Probably. A small chuckle came from his lips. What his luck to be sold like cattle, all he ever wanted was to get a job helping people and make his family proud. A voice rang out of the crowd like it was almost next to him on the stage, "Five million? Isn't that much for a product we can't even see?" Wait? They can't see me? He was sure they could cause he could feel the heat of lights burning down on him and his sweat traveling across his hot skin. He didn't feel much cloth as he moved around, he knew he had clothes on but he wasn't sure what it was made of. It was soft and breezy, perhaps an expensive material, that was easy to clean?
"Gentlemen and ladies, I understand your concern to get a high quality product. That's why we were waiting until we had a few bidders before we exposed this beauty," As soon as that was said he felt the blindfold yanked from his head and he was looking into a crowd of hundreds of people if not more. The light from the stage lights blinded him and he had to use his forehead to stabilize himself so he wouldn't pass out.
As soon as he regained his composure and his eyes adjusted to the light, he looked back into the crowd. There were faces of people he had never seen before and they all seemed to have a look of carnal desire on their face. Before long he felt fingers entwined themselves into his hair and he was yanked to his feet effortlessly. He wasn't a big guy but he doubted he would be that easy to pull up but this man did it with ease. He heard the clinking of the chains and he looked down, his wrists and ankles were bound with red rope so that couldn't possibly be the sound, He was then tugged and felt his neck being pulled, he looked at the person who did it. I understand, a collar. What am I? Some kind of dog? He had a red collar on his neck that was neatly chained.
"So, shall we begin the bidding, as you can see, he has fair skin, nice white hair, and gold eyes. A very rare trait among humans." Before he saw it people were bidding on him left and right, his mind blanked out from the chattering and he fell to his knees. This couldn't be happening and he began to sob. How did he get here? He had to think back to what happened before he ended up here. He remembered taking on a new client for his nursing aid job, perhaps he had the wrong apartment. He almost couldn't recall what happened and then his head began throbbing. That's right, it was the right apartment because he was given the key, it was a senile old man he was meant to take care of, instead he ended up walking in on a group of men in black sitting at a table. Next he knew he was waking up here, perhaps it was a set up but who knew…
Before he could react he was being forced up by a hand and being led off stage. What's going on? Shit I should've been paying attention! He didn't know where he was going or who bought him but he had a bad feeling. That was reinforced when he heard the next sentence coming from the speakers, "And that concludes the end of the Demon Sect Auction. Have a nice night everyone!"
Fuck.
