  Christmas Eve has come, and I'm the present. Or at least the parcel. I'm grateful that'd I'd woken up bright eyed and bushy tailed. That’s a phrase with which my mother often derides her much less affluent sister whenever she had any pep in her step my mother hadn't managed to kill. I had all the energy that I could muster.

  My mother is nowhere to be seen the morning she allows my father to ship me off to a strange man. Maybe I should slam the glass down and leave broken shards to annoy her and remind her that I was here. Of course, I don’t do this. I swear, I don’t have a natural flair for the dramatic. That’s all my mother. I’m calm.

  Walking to the door, I gulp. I'm practically certain it isn’t Damien. This both disappoints me and terrifies me. Who will it be? I pull the brassy knob of the oak door to reveal a man who is large, but still not quite as large as Damien. Which was really saying something because the sharp dressed, dangerous looking man, who turns out to be the driver, opens the door of the car for me with bulging biceps beneath his suit jacket. If he was a Navy SEAL from my Kindle, or used to be, I would believe it.

  I wonder why I don’t find this man as exhilarating as Damien. While it's true that Damien's larger and even more impressive, part of me wonders if my holiday blues haven't simply made me catch some kind of slutty bug.

  Alas, I only have wet panties for Damien. I almost laugh at the joke, but I am too confused by exactly what to do. I'm just leaving my house? It seems so strange. My parents are gone. This driver appears … why am I left utterly in the dark? I screw up my face in frustration.

  "I'll be taking you to Damien's condo now, ma'am. Do you need me to get any of your luggage?" Well, at least the driver is trying to be nice. Maybe he thinks I'm stupid and is wondering why I haven’t packed any luggage. I have no clue how long I will be with Damien. I know almost nothing about this arrangement. Wasn't packing hard enough without all these unknown variables in the equation? After all, I’m not going on a vacation. Why should I pack away my belongings when I’m giving away my freedom?

  "I didn't actually pack anything," I say with a tentative laugh, a nervous smile coming in its wake. I tuck some of my hair behind my ears.

  "Don't worry about it. If you need anything, it will be taken care of. Damien will send someone to gather any of your things that you decide you need." It's a calm, polite statement, designed to soothe me, and I'm grateful for that. No reason for me to be anything but grateful, because he's just the driver. Still, I'm more confused than ever. Does the driver know why he’s picking me up? If he does, it doesn’t keep him from closing my car door and heading to the driver’s seat, pulling away from my childhood home, and taking me toward Damien. The trip won’t be long enough for me to form any coherent assumptions, just enough for me to feel thoroughly frazzled. My palms are sweating and I feel like my hair's getting frizzy on principle, just to make me feel worse.

  Would Damien be home? If my thoughts leave my own misery, they instantly glide into the realm of what to think of Damien.

  I try to look out the window and concentrate on anything other than my predicament … or my captor. The spires of the city start to come into view as we get closer to Manhattan, and I try to focus on that background feature and none of the people. I have the overwhelming urge to be alone, not for some secret action in my panties this time, but just to feel like I could finally exhale the metaphorical breath I’ve been holding since my father bartered me away. I guess I should be trying to make SOS signals with my eyelids or something, but the only things I blink are tears. I desperately try to keep those at bay, and I succeed.

  What the hell is in store for me?

  This isn’t the first time I’ve been in Manhattan. I never liked it before and I can’t find a reason to like it now. I rest one of my sweaty palms onto my leg, wiping the hand on my jeans, and placing it on the cool leather of the seat next to me. I think the temperature change on my hand might calm me. If I didn't feel like it would make me look like a dumb dog or something, I would press my face against the glass. I just want something to distract me from ... I don’t know what. That is it. The uncertainty is overwhelming and I need to be able to get my bearings.

  When we arrive, I'm absolutely shocked by how imposing the stonework of the building is. I thought every little idiosyncrasy of the buildings in New York were devoid of anything interesting to me. But there is something about this one, despite being surrounded by so much hustle and bustle of an obviously affluent crowd that makes the building seem to be a step above everything else around it. I looked up to the very top floor of the building, where expansive windows stand stark in a tasteful showmanship against the rest of the building's features.

  I have a feeling that is a penthouse. That it's Damien's. It just feels like his, right away. He is the king here in his Manhattan castle, I'm sure of it. I feel an involuntary shiver overtake my body for just a second before the driver opens my door. I step out, taking the hand the driver politely offers me. No spark there. Guess I'm a one man kind of ho, and that is fine with me.

  When I start to recall the way I felt sitting on Damien’s lap, how hard I'd come last night thinking about him touching me, I'm almost embarrassed even though no one knows what I'm thinking. Still, I can feel my face heat because I’m blushing.

  Of course I am, and I feel embarrassed because even if no one else knows, I know that the instant I think about Damien being the king of his big penthouse, I feel a gush of arousal dampen my panties. I don’t care about opulence, though there is certain to be plenty on display.

  It's Damien who keeps me in this constant state of arousal. How can he have so much power over my body when he's barely touched me, barely knows me? I don't know him or his intentions at all, and yet here I am, enraptured.

  When we step inside the building, we enter the elevator and the driver uses a special badge, and code, to access the floor he selects.

  Definitely the penthouse. I suck in a breath, smoothing my hands out over my jeans with some flailing hope that I will look presentable if Damien is home. My mind races with no single, well formed thought. What am I walking into? It is such a strange sensation to know that my whole life has changed, yet I still have no idea how, or even why.

  Damien

  Fuck. I took Sarah. She's mine now. I have her.

  So what the fuck do I do with her now that she’s standing in front of me, freshly delivered by my driver to my penthouse?

  I know what I'd like to do with her. Bend over her tiny little body and start exploring just how tight her pussy is with one hand, and spank those soft moons of her ass with the other. Feel her tremble around me.

  Taking her from her shitty no good parents was one thing. Owning her as some kind of collateral is another.

  I know that the Virgin Market is the best way to recoup the money...

  But I don't want to think about fucking money right now. In fact, I'm not. I'm thinking about her creamy thighs spread for me. Making her hold them open while her fingers tremble and her pussy is on display for me. Squeezing her tits until she cries out but not stopping until tears stain her face in hot streaks. Making her thighs as red as her face, and then spanking her pussy.

  I'm not a complicated man, am I?

  I like a sweet, ripe virgin as much as the next depraved motherfucker. I want all these things...

  And yet, here come the goddamn complications.

  Because I don't want that. I want it bad enough for my cock to hurt just looking at her standing here in front of me, but that frightened look in her eyes makes me want to ship her off on a plane far away. Give her a pile of cash and forget her name. Forget her face.

  Forget her wet pussy trembling on my leg.

  No, when her body responded to mine, she damned herself. Poor girl. She had no idea what she has in store for her. I'm the cock that stole Christmas. Or, rather, I'll sell her to that one. Though part of me wants to forget sweating an enormous amount of capital and keep her all for myself. But this isn't just about the money.
I'm fucking rich, and that doesn't just mean protecting my assets. It means protecting my reputation. I'm not to be fucked with or fucked over.

  You try to screw me over in business and if I don’t respond, then people we both deal with will think it’s okay to try it too.

  No, a slap to the face like that needs me to respond in only one way.

  A fucking mallet to the neck.

  Because if you screw me, you need to know I’m going to fucking respond.

  After what Sarah’s father has pulled on me, first off, it’ll be hard to do it again with my newfound paranoia. But if you do, then I’ll do what I’m doing now - sell your pure and untouched daughter to the highest bidder on the Virgin Market, the exclusive gathering of wealthy untouchable assholes who can have anything that they want. So rich that they’ve bought everything in the world so now they buy people.

  The idea of Sarah being hollowed out by those assholes—if she's afraid and shows it—being sold to someone with even sicker thoughts than mine...or being compliant for someone else?

  Those thoughts horrify me. The scent of her sweet pussy still lingers in my mind. My cock twitches and I resist the urge to palm it.

  I look into her wide eyes.

  I'm not going to be kind.

  I can't be. The urge to be kind to her only pushes me toward trying to withdraw my feelings. Being stern with her is my only option, putting her off...but if I'm stern with her, it will only set alight my darker desires.

  So I'm fucked either way. In the not getting to fuck her sweet body sense.

  What a goddamn waste. She had a life, she has a sweet virginal pussy, and all of it is going down the drain because her parents are scum.

  Well, that's not my fucking sob story.

  "Strip, and get on your knees." I let no warmth or need penetrate my voice. If I'm a mystery, I'm more frightening. I can't have her thinking that she has hope. That she can escape. I need to get the idea of being nice to her out of my mind so I can focus on keeping her compliant.

  For some asshole who is going to buy her. I'll train her.

  Fuck, I need to text Trevor.

  "I won't repeat myself," I say, leaning forward and allowing the menace that I might harm her move her trembling fingers to work.

  She makes short order of her clothes, and gets on her knees.

  "Good girl," I say, pulling out my phone. I snap a picture.

  Sarah gasps.

  "I'm sending this to TD. He will love to see your virgin pussy, so why don't you spread your legs for me," I say, every inch of the menace in my voice now full of triumph.

  I used to fuck some of the classier rich widows here in Manhattan with Trevor back in the day. It has been a while since we destroyed some hot piece of ass. And we've never had something so sweet.

  He's bought girls for a night on the Virgin Market. He told me last that he thought he should make a more permanent investment. And Sarah? Well, she's goddamn perfect.

  And I get to fuck her if TD buys her, he fucking loves sharing pussy with me.

  Of course, that's a thing we've only done in small doses.

  But one night with Sarah would be all I need, right?

  I have to fucking tell myself that. It's the only thing keeping me from just fucking Sarah now.

  You gotta stop me if I try to.

  Something goes over her face. Her eyes hood with lust while her breathing flushes her pale breasts to pink and she's panting in fear. She spreads her thighs and I take the pictures. I show them sending to TD, with just one word.

  Virgin.

  He texts back: Very nice.

  I let Sarah see it and her fingers tremble, but she's so obedient, not moving a muscle aside from her shaking. Trembling as she is, I can't believe I see that flicker of something in her eyes. How innocent is this sweet little girl? What lies beneath the surface of Sarah?

  Fuck, I want to find out. So badly.

  "Let go, turn around," I command her.

  She obeys, shuffling around.

  "Now put your palms flat on the ground," I tell her.

  She obeys.

  I inhale the scent of her pussy.

  Wet.

  "You like listening to what I tell you to do?"

  "I'm afraid," she says, her voice shaking.

  I slap my hand down to her ass, landing with a smack against her hot flesh. It pinks for me and I groan. "That doesn't arouse you less," I say with smug satisfaction. I grip her ass, letting the whole cheek fit in my palm with a firm squeeze. "You don't speak again unless I tell you to."

  I believe I got the message across.

  My cock jolts in my trousers. I want to pull it out and just slide it across her bare ass, skin hot from where I spanked her and now grip. Just a touch. But my hands are aching to delve lower and I have to stop.

  Sarah

  Damien demeans me. Makes me strip. I show him my pussy. He bends me over on the floor and spanks me. Says I don't talk to him unless he says I can.

  He doesn’t know that I would do this even if I didn’t have to. If my father didn’t owe any money, somehow I’d still be here. It’s like nothing I’ve ever felt before.

  Maybe that’s why the heat in my body won’t subside? How can I still be attracted to him? I want to scream to release the frustration inside my body. I ache to be able to release all of the tension that he's built up inside me.

  He fucking sent pictures of my naked body to this TD. I don't know who that is but they saw my naked body and I want to vomit just thinking about that. Damien seeing me naked...turns me on. I don't like it, but I can admit it.

  But some stranger?

  The tears start to fall and they don't stop. I can't believe I can, for a second, feel safe around Damien. I shouldn't think he isn't capable of horrible things. Doesn't this prove that he's willing to do anything he deems necessary to debase me?

  So why does his hands squeezing my ass make me burn for him? Why do I start caring more now about whether or not he enjoys squeezing my ass than if I'm going to get raped by his friend, that TD person? Why is he doing this?

  Why did my parents let this happen?

  Damien's hand reaches out and wipes away one of my tears. I shudder. The gentle touch happens as he releases my ass, and somehow a kind touch is worse than a rough one. I don't know what to expect. My mind and body haven't caught up with each other and I don't know what to think.

  He pulls my hand from above me. My palm is sweating and I feel the wetness of my tears on his hand. I stand up as he pulls me.

  "This is going to be your room," Damien says as he takes me down a hallway and shows me a doorless room with a large, fluffy bed inside. The room is bare. Clearly a space for a guest. It scares me, seeing this room.

  Where is the door?

  I want to ask, but I know that I'm not supposed to. Not allowed to. He releases my hand and I sit on the bed.

  Then he just leaves.

  Oh God, this has to be some kind of test.

  I'm naked and I feel weird sitting, naked.

  What if TD is on his way here?

  What if Damien is pimping me out? Maybe that's why he didn't fuck me.

  I feel sick to my stomach and I see there's a bathroom in here.

  Damien already out of sight, I rush to the bathroom. Waves of nausea roll over me, but I don't have the strong feeling that I can vomit. I can no more expel this hurt in my stomach than I can escape this situation. At least, for now.

  I turn the faucet on and look at my face. I'm flushed pink and red, my eyes are puffy and dark. I look like the hell that I feel inside. But I see a fire behind the pain in my eyes. I know this now. I splash the water onto my face and turn off the faucet. Take a deep breath.

  I will get out of here. I don't know how, but I'm going to find a way out.

  I hear a door close and I jump. Okay, so I'm not so tough right now. But I will be. I'm working up to it.

  Should I risk leaving this room? Calling out to see if Damien left?

  I
don't know what the consequences of disobeying or disappointing Damien are, but I won't let myself imagine them. Tentatively, I step outside of the room and head back to the foyer. I don't encounter Damien or anyone else on the way there.

  I turn back after a cursory glance at the kitchen and no one is there. Every door is locked. But I seem to be alone. For how long, I don't know. I rub my stomach. It isn't as sick, but I'm not hungry. I have no idea what's in Damien's kitchen. I want to go in there and find a knife. But something tells me that I couldn't use it, even if I needed to, but taking it might make me look like I would...and I don't want to die stabbed to death.

  Of course, despite everything, my brain tells me that Damien would never stab me.

  "As if I could fucking know that!" I shout in defiance. I'm already breaking because I shudder now for fear that I'll be heard. No one is here, and I'm shaking. I'm cold now. I hate that I'm naked. I immediately pick up my clothes and put them on. The cold wetness from my earlier arousal, despite everything, makes me groan in frustration.

  I'm wet now. I'm afraid, but I'm wet. Why couldn't I just hate Damien? Be afraid. I don't want to find him appealing. That terrifies me more than any possibility. I have been kidnapped. My parents can't just make me the property of someone else. I need to get away. I finish getting dressed and try the obvious solution.

  I go to try the front door, but the instant my hand is on the door knob, the driver's voice bellows out, "No." That single word is all the warning he offers. It's because it's all he has to say. I’m not about to try and bust through that door. I saw the muscles on him. He was nice to me, but still…he’s a tough stranger in charge of keeping me in here. Posted at the door. That’s kind of insane.

  Well, fuck. I'm not alone. But as long as I'm on this side of the door and he's on that one, I'm okay with that. I go back to my room and sit on the bed, letting my mind run wild with possibilities of how to escape.
