Morg: Heyo! You guys ready for this?

Ikuto: Are you asking us or the readers?

Amu: No.

Morg: Everyone, I suppose.

Ikuto: Oh, I guess?

Amu: No.

Morg: Excellent! Let's do this!

~Indebted~

Ikuto clenched his hands on his tablet as he watched Tadase pull away with Amu cuffed in the backseat of his car. He only relaxed once he caught Kukai looking worriedly at him from the corner of his eyes. "I need to make a phone call."

Kukai nodded as he sat ready to start their car whenever Ikuto told him to.

Ikuto pulled out his phone before dialing a familiar number. He kept his eyes on the screen of his tablet as it rang.

"Hello?"

"Tsukasa," Ikuto greeted before he nodded at Kukai to start their car. "I found your mole."

Tsukasa was silent for a moment before he sighed. "I'm not going to like what you're doing, am I?"

"No," Ikuto agreed. "But so far it's working. Hotori Tadase was just seen kidnapping Amu from her house."

Tsukasa swore before he scrambled to get moving. "Where are you?"

"I'm going to have someone pick you up. Amu's wired and going in. We can't risk tipping them off before we're ready."

"I'm at the station."

"Good," Ikuto told him as he gestured for Kukai to turn. "Leave and start walking down the street. Someone will pull up beside you. Nagihiko and Rima. He's got long purple hair and she's blonde. They also can show you the feed and the tracking details on Amu."

"And Tadase has her?"

"Yes," Ikuto confirmed as he once again motioned for Kukai to turn. "Said he was taking her to the boss."

"Ikuto."

"Get ready, Tsukasa. This ends today."

Amu glared hard at Tadase through the rearview mirror as she sat silently in his backseat. She did not waver in her anger toward him at any point during their drive. He was doing exactly what she wanted him to do but the fact that he was in his police uniform stopped her from smirking in triumph.

He was despicable. He'd chosen a career that was all about helping people and instead he betrayed them. She couldn't wait to see him behind bars.

"You can glare all you want," Tadase said with a smirk as he pulled into an underground parking structure. "But you're the one that left the one place we couldn't reach you. You practically gave yourself to me."

"I hate you," Amu gritted out.

Tadase chuckled at that as he found a place close to the elevator. He parked before he turned to look at her over the seat. "You should have stayed put. We went through all of that effort to send that message to Ikuto. He should have known better than to let you have any sort of freedom. Probably should have just left you tied to his bed."

"Go to hell," Amu snarled.

Tadase laughed as he got out of the car. He kept chuckling as he dragged her from the backseat and to the elevator. "No, darling. You're in hell. But I'm sure you'll learn to love it."

Amu sneered at him as best she could as he kept her off balance while they rode the elevator up a few floors.

"You've got quite a bit of fire in you," Tadase told her as if he admired that fact. "Maybe I'll convince the boss to allow me the honor of keeping you once he's done. I wouldn't mind tasting a bit of all that spice."

Only because she was being kept facing away from him, Amu rolled her eyes.

Tadase didn't like that he wasn't getting more of a rise out of her. "I wasn't there when they had his sister, you know. I've seen all the footage and heard all the stories. I think she was the boss's favorite. I'm almost sad I wasn't there to partake."

Amu clenched her jaw so tight she was worried that Ikuto could hear her teeth grinding. "Fuck you."

Tadase laughed at her again as the doors to the elevator slid open. He forced her out of it and down the long hallway.

Amu did her best to tilt her head so her hair that had fallen out of her ponytail as she fought with Tadase wouldn't cover the camera that was in her earring. She kept her head straight so she could film as much of the building as possible.

"We'll stop in here first," Tadase told Amu as he pulled her to a stop just outside of a door. "Can't let you go before the boss unless you've been searched. The boys are expecting you."

She steeled herself as he threw the door open and shoved her in.

Amu was expected men who behaved more like wild animals. She was waiting for leering perverts and sycophants. She was not expecting a couple of guys sitting at a table playing cards.

"Search her," Tadase commanded as he leaned against the wall just inside the doorway. "All the way down to her skin. She won't need her clothes."

One of the guys sighed as he dropped his cards. "Take the cuffs off."

Tadase stepped up behind her as he fished the key from his pocket. "Be careful, she's got some bite."

"They always do before they see the boss."

Amu braced herself for rough hands and being forced to do things. It didn't really happen. Sure, she didn't help them as they striped her. And they weren't exactly gentle but they weren't as mean as they could have been. "Why are you doing this?"

"You think we like this, sweetheart?" One of them mumbled as he set her shorts to the side. "You think we chose this line of work."

"I think you're still here doing this."

"Not many other options," the second guy told her before he took her bracelet. "This is a tracker."

Tadase stepped forward to look at it over her shoulder. "You sure?"

"Yes, I've seen these before. I know the brand."

Amu stumbled as Tadase shoved her from behind. "Hey!"

"Is that why you thought Ikuto was going to save you? You think he's going to manage to get in here? Yeah right."

Amu scowled at him. "I didn't know! I wouldn't have worn it if I had known!"

"Sure," the guard said as he reached for her underwear. "Step out or we'll help you step out."

Amu flushed red as she stood naked before the men. She hugged her arms around her middle as she glared at the floor.

"Are you done?" Tadase all but sneered as he crossed his arms over his chest. "The boss is waiting for her."

One of the guards looked at her for a moment before he shrugged. "Sure. Take her."

Tadase grabbed her arm and pulled her back to the door behind them. "Someone take that tracker and ditch it somewhere in the city. Let Ikuto chase a false lead."

Amu glanced back at them as Tadase yanked her out into the hallway. She almost lost her footing and cried out as he slammed her up against the wall. "Stop!"

"You're lucky that the boss wants to taste you first. If he had known that you were so precious to Ikuto the last time you were here he would have kept you for a little while longer."

Amu let him press in close to her. She let him pin her to the wall with his hands and turned her head away so that he thought he was getting to her. Then she kneed him in the groin.

Tadase swore as he staggered back. He didn't let her go and almost pulled her to the ground as he hunched over. "You bitch!"

Amu smirked before she forced her face back into a hard glare. "Fuck you!"

Tadase got up and took a step closer to her before he sucked in a hard breath and shook himself. "I'm going to enjoy paying you back for that later."

"Again," Amu said in a steely voice. "Fuck you."

"No, baby," Tadase all but purred as he forced her to walk down the hallway once more. "It'll be the other way around."

Amu bit her lip to stop herself from groaning at how cheesy that line was. Tadase was such an idiot that she couldn't believe that he hadn't been caught yet.

It didn't matter, Amu reminded herself as they neared a door at the end of the hallway. It didn't matter because she was about to be taken before the boss and they hadn't removed her earrings. They might have taken her bracelet but she still had the tacker in her hip. Ikuto wouldn't be fooled even if they took it far away from where she was.

Tadase stopped before he opened the door. He smoothed out his uniform and hair before checking her over one last time. Then he pushed open the door.

"How far away do you think we need to stay?" Kukai asked as he drove around the block. "You've got surveillance on each of the buildings surrounding yours. Do you think they have the same?"

"I'm sure they do," Ikuto muttered as he watched the feed of Amu getting striped and the bracelet being taken away. He braced himself for them to take her earrings and sighed when they didn't. "We can't get too close until we're ready to go in."

"Boss," Rima said from the call they had connected to the car through Kukai's phone. "We got him."

"Make sure no one is following you. Show him the feed and rewind it so he can see Tadase. Then make your way to Amu's current location. I want you to park somewhere on the other side of the building from us."

"Ikuto," Tsukasa's voice filtered through the speakers. "This is so dangerous."

"I know," Ikuto replied with a sigh. "But Amu was firm. She was going to do this with or without us."

"So you're giving her backup."

"And we didn't call you before because we didn't know who the mole was."

"I'll see him in jail for this," Tsukasa said darkly. "And I'll make sure everyone there knows he's a dirty cop."

"If you're not watching the live feed," Ikuto said quickly as he watched Amu stop in front of a door. "Switch to it. I think she's about to meet the boss."

Tsukasa made a noise of agreement but didn't say anything else.

Ikuto held his breath as the door was thrown open before Amu. He felt his eyes widen as his grip went a little lax as she lifted her head. The camera in her earring caught sight of the man sitting behind a large desk. "Fuck."

"No," Tsukasa's voice sounded weakly through their call. "It can't be."

"Fuck," Ikuto said again.

Amu tilted her head just right as Tadase pushed her into the room. She stared at the man behind the desk. "I remember you," she said without thinking. "From before. It's hazy, but I met you before."

"You did," the man said with a smirk as he rested his hands on his desk. "I do virginity checks on all the new girls. Wanted to give you more than my finger to sit on the last time you were here. Looks like I'll get my chance."

Amu scowled at him as Tadase forced her to approach the desk. "Who are you? What do you want with me?"

"I think you know what I want," the man told her as he sat back in his chair. He made a show of looking at her naked body before he lifted his gaze back to her face. "As for who I am, I think it's best if you just call me Master."

Amu couldn't stop herself from grimacing. "No, thank you."

The man lifted his brows as he studied her. "So polite."

Amu shrugged at that before making another face and covering her chest with her arms by crossing them over her boobs. "I want to leave."

"I don't think you fully understand," he told her as he pushed his chair back from his desk. "You don't get to leave. Not until I'm done with you."

"You can't keep me here," Amu told him as she ignored his gesture to get closer to him. She resisted as Tadase pushed at her shoulders. "I'm not some toy or a slave for you to mess with."

"Is that bitterness I hear in your voice?" he mocked. "Did Ikuto not treat you very well?"

Amu glared harder as she clenched her teeth. "Don't talk about Ikuto."

"Did he tell you that he bought you to save you?" the man sneered. "Did he tell you that before or after he took your virginity?"

Amu had to remind herself that she was not there to defend Ikuto's honor. She didn't need to convince this man that Ikuto was amazing and honorable. "Shut up."

"He lied to you, didn't he? He told you all sorts of sweet things but in the end, all he wanted was to bend you over and fuck you hard."

"Shut up," Amu said again as she clenched her hands into fists. "I don't want to hear it."

"I won't lie to you," he told her. "I won't tell you sweet nothings. I'm going to fuck you. I'm going to train your body to take me and whoever else I decide gets to use you until you're better than any whore. Then, once you're used up and too loose, I'll dump you just like I did his sister."

"No," Amu whispered as Tadase started pushing her forward once more. "No."

"Don't worry, little pinkette," he laughed as Tadase got her around the desk. "Master is here."

"Ikuto," Amu yelled as she fought against Tadase's hands. "Ikuto!"

"He can't save you," Tadase grunted as he fought to get a hold of her. "Don't worry, Amu. You'll learn to love your new life."

Morg: Well.

Ikuto: You would leave it there.

Amu: Great.
