10 people including me? Sold.

This is our last week here. After that, we are gone.

Alex and I am safe considering our buyer is literally Gemini. Am I in the wrong for being kinda jealous because he bought Alex too. But honestly, I am also grateful since at least one person here other than me is finally free from torture.

"You woke up?" I ask as I step out of the bathroom while drying my hair with a towel.

"Yeah" Gemini grunts.

Natalie of course told them to stay the night since it was pretty late by the time the event ended.

The other buyers who managed to catch their prey slept in their room. By slept, I mean also fuck. And others choose from who's left.

Gemini was sleeping on the ground.

I don't know why I asked him to sleep on the ground.

Maybe it's because after all the torture I saw, I don't want anyone to touch me.

I once saw a nightmare that finally it's my turn. All the evil men surrounded me and there was no place to run or hide.

So, no. I am not allowing anyone to touch me until my fucking trauma is gone. And thankfully, Gemini co-operated.

Believe me when I say, all I want to do is hug and kiss him so hard that both of us will pass out. And I tried. I tried touching him but my skin crawled.

"I'm sorry" I say in a apologetic tone and he instantly stood up. He came close but did not touch me.

"Hey, no. Its ok" I nod and he backs away.

"It's almost breakfast time. Take a shower"

He nods and heads towards the shower.

Timeskip

My eyes widen at the food on the table.

We were back at the event room where a whole feast were ready. Not only for the buyers but for us too.

"Are you seeing what I am seeing?" I whisper to Mia who also had wide eyes.

"Im pretty sure I am dreaming"

"Me too" I sigh.

"Why are you surprised?" Gemini asked innocently.

"Normally, we only get like an egg and a bitter orange juice" He made a disgusting face and went ahead to take a sit.

I sat between Gemini and Mia.

"I would kindly ask you gentlemen to leave after Breakfast. As you know, they need special manners class after they are sold and having you here might be a little distracting. But you could come back at around 9 pm and stay if you want" Natalie flashed her best smile and almost all nodded.

As requested, after Breakfast they all got ready to leave.

"Don't worry, princess. Nothing will happen. I made sure of it. But if anything, wait for me. I'll come back to you in the evening. Okay?" He gently, rubbed my palm, trying to make it as less intimate as he can.

"Yeah, ok" I nod and pull my hand back.

Gemini looks at me one more time before turning around to leave my room.

After he closed the door, I let out a sigh.

I mean don't get me wrong, I love Gemini and am grateful that he came to safe me. But just the thought of men disgusts me. I mean I know that not all are are gentlemen but this cruel? Do they even have a heart?

"Earth to Fourth?" I snap out of my thoughts and see the nice guy waving a hand infront of me.

I was so lost in my own thoughts that I didn't even realize when he entered and called my name.

"Y-yea? Oh sorry" He sits down beside me

"Are you thinking about something?" He asks

"How will I serve him when I don't even like the thought of men?"

Gemini is understanding. He won't touch me if I tell him not to. But I don't wanna stay away forever.

"You're disgusted and don't even wanna get close to men? That's not new. No one wants to serve people like them. But you have to. For your own good. Push through it fourth. All secrets come to light so you'll be free one day. I know it. Just believe in yourself" His words hit me hard. He's right. I will get out of this phase one day or another. Whether on my 23rd birthday or my 40th birthday. But Gemini will wait for me.

"Did that boy who stays next room pass?" I ask about neighbor boy, trying to avoid these emotional talks.

"Yeah he did" He replies with ease.

Almost every person I talk or at least once talked  with passed. Mia, Alex, neighbor boy and...Maria.

After that punishment she got for trying to hurt me, she stopped talking to me. While she did spared me a glance or two, she never stared.

I mean I am obviously happy that I don't have to deal with Maria shit.

"Fourth?" He waved again,

"Oh, sorry. Yeah, that's great"

"You zoned out again. You okay?"

"I am. I'm completely fine" He nods even though I'm pretty sure he didn't buy it.

"Okay, I'll leave you to yourself. Just come downstairs when we call you" I nod and he stand up and walks out the door.
