Deprivation

CAPTURED, AUCTIONED, AND CLAIMED. BUT I WILL NEVER SURRENDER, NO MATTER THE COST…I'm a prize. A treasure for the taking. A gift to be given to the highest bidder by our new Chapter Lord. For two years, I've been locked away. Sequestered. They tell me it's for my protection, but I know better. They're waiting. And on my twenty-first birthday, they hold an auction, not just for my virginity, but for me, all of me. When I'm paraded before them, I see all the men who once kissed my father's boots, all hoping to claim me. But as the gavel falls, it's not one of them who wins me. It's someone far worse. Antonio. My father's best friend. No, ex-best friend. He's spent two years checking on me, comforting me, and now I understand why. I belong to him now. His to do with as he pleases. But I won't make it easy. I won't simply surrender and let this monster devour me…
