The Highest Bidder

by emi-leexoxo

The Kurainazo Casino; famous for its splendor, infamous for its dark secrets. It's open to humans and yokai as well. Kagome, an orphan kidnapped for slave trafficking, was prepared for her fate. Then the cold-hearted Lord Inuyasha changed it by bidding. Kagome's freedom doesn't come without a price. A rival bidder is out for Inuyasha's head and her purity. Told in drabbles.

"What the –" he began.

"Please don't leave me," the girl said in a small voice. "I –" her voice cracked " –I don't have anywhere else to go! I'm not some well-off girl who just happened to be wandering away from home. My entire family is dead, and I'm penniless. I live on the streets, and if I go back, they might capture me again"

"Keh!" Inuyasha sniffles. "And what's in it for me?" The girl hesitated.

"I can become your companion! Not as a slave; I'm assuming you don't want that. I can be a friend, a listening ear, someone to help your troubles. All I ask for is a home."

The multi-millionaire thought for a moment. It seemed to be a good deal.

After a slight hesitation, he gently pulled the girl up from concrete. "We have a deal."
