Sold?

• Lexus

I stared at her as she quietly slept on the bed beside me. I'm glad at least she trusts me enough to fall asleep like that.

But...

I understand she's afraid of thunder, many people are,but to the point that she trembles that bad?

That's strange. There was nothing written on her slave details.

I sighed and at some point I drifted into sleep.

***

It was 9 am when I woke up. Unexpectedly I slept well. I looked to my side and saw her still sound asleep.

I have work to do so I went and changed.

After attending the meeting I came back to the room only to find Rosalie gone.

Her tracker was on my phone and I opened the file to see where she was.

I sighed.

Well as long as she stays in the hotel it shouldn't matter where she goes.

I had the plan of taking her to tonight's party but I guess she wants to play in a world of her own. Like a child, she wanders off and fails to realize that she is being followed or being watched.

I sighed again.

Like an innocent child, she believed she would be okay when the world was scheming against her.

Given from one place to another like she was a toy.

I stared at her life description on my email.

I turned it off. Well, who cares now. She's my possession now.

***

A casual classy boring party like any other. You eat a bit, drink some and chat about useless stuff.

"Is something bothering you?" Diana looked at me with her eyebrow raised.

"No. Just thinking."

"If you say so." She had her arms wrapped around my arm and she was about to slip them away when I held her hand and made sure she stayed with me.

She looked at me and I smiled at her, in return she grinned back.

"Well well aren't you too a lovely couple." We both turned to see the owner of the voice.

"Mother." I greeted her.

"Mrs.Xander." Diana smiled.

"I didn't think you'd be here." My mother spoke to me.

"I honestly didn't plan on coming either but then I changed my mind."

"Really I wonder what made you change your mind son. You really aren't fond of parties."

"Oh, Mrs.Xander hope you don't mind. I forced Lexus to come along. I didn't have a partner to attend the party with and besides I think this old soul here needs some fresh air too." She playfully swung our arms.

"Indeed." My mother chuckled, "It's good you did. I rarely ever get to see him."

"I'm just busy."

She nodded and then her eyes wandered to someone behind me, "Arius." She greeted him.

"Veronica." He came and stood by us, "Lexus." He smiled.

"It's been a while." I said.

"Well of course, You don't like seeing my face after all."

"That-" he cut me off.

"Actually, You don't like seeing the face of anyone involved in that incident. Probably why you don't like seeing your mother either." He flashed me his annoying smile.

Mother on the other hand turned on her heels and left. Diana too let go of my arms and decided it was better to leave us. That's one thing really good about her. She always knows what to do.

"You just can't keep your mouth shut. Can you?" I gritted my teeth in between the words.

"Sorry. I have this habit of speaking what's on my mind."

"We had an agreement to never talk about the incident Arius Alucard."

"Ah. Must have slipped my mind."

"Stop smiling."

"Why? You wanna punch me?"

"I'm very much tempted to."

A mocking smile appeared on his face, "Why don't you?"

I turned to leave.

"You don't ever let out your steam, your own cold calmness messes your head up."

***

I poured myself some wine as I waited in my room. It was going to be midnight soon, so why isn't she back?

She's in the hotel alright but what's keeping her away?

I drank the little drink left in oneshot and got up.

I'll fetch her myself.

The first place was the executive lounge, right below the executive rooms. It was a good choice because I found her immediately.

As I reached the lounge and walked around a bit I spotted her. She back hugged some man and then kissed him.

I think I heard something crack in my mind, like a barrier.

I felt my ears get heated, I was angry.

I stomped over to her and pulled her back.

***

As soon as we entered the room and I dropped her down onto the floor. She looked at me in panic.

"Stand up." I demanded.

She tried but wobbled a bit. I didn't help and she tried again and this time she stood up straight. "So let's make this clear. Who do you belong to?"

"Y-you."

"That's right. You're fucking mine." I glared at her, "MINE! And you dared kiss another man?"

"Is it that bad?" She asked an innocent question that made me snap.

"Is it that bad?" I snorted and grabbed her cheeks between my hands and kissed her not giving her any time to respond not giving her any time to react, I kissed her hard and rough.

She was out of breath in no time but I had no intention of stopping. I was going to drill it in her mind who she belongs too.

Me.
