A Hidden Secret

Chapter I

   I kept on walking, not wanting to stop. I felt like turning back but couldnt. After all that has happened there is no turning back. No, no turning back. Will there be a chance encounter though? I will miss him, but no, I am better off without him. 

     I need to stop thinking about it and just keep moving. My mind became distracted but my body remains in motion. I was unconscious of where I was going until I bumped into a girl and fell to the ground.

 - "Ugh! Watch where you're---"

     That voice! It's too familiar, a voice that makes me cringe at the mere sound of it. I have to look up and just as I theorized, it was her. 

- "Vetani!"

     My eyes widened as I said her name. I started to turn pale, my vision seemed to blur and without knowing, I passed out. 

     'What is this place? It's strange.' I began to panick. There's bars around me but what I see ahead is a nice, clean, rich home. 'I don''t get it. Where am I? A few minutes ago, I think, I was in a forest and now I am in a house. It was no ordinary home. The walls were a lovely light brown, chandeliers cover the roof. My eyesight zooms to the outside. There's a fountain made of pure cast stone, I believe, and water trinkles down it. 'Wow a garden', I thought to myself, 'full of beautiful flowers and many exotic ones. Hm, the gardener must have a very abstract mid to think of this.' Little did I know that it was no gardner, just magic. 

     I hear footsteps coming down the stairs and I snap out of my thoughts.

- "Ah, Ice. I see you have finally woken up. Heh, I'd never think I'd see you again after the- incident" 

     A smirk went across her face as she looked down at me, holding a bar of my, what I now realized, cage. 

- "It's a shame that we had to meet like this, but who was the one to say, 'I will never forgive you, you damned creature! And I will NEVER be your friend.' Oh, that's right, it was you."

     Her voice spoke taughtingly to me. Each time she spoke, it pierced my ears. I stood up facing her. I gave her a cold glare before I spoke.

- "What do you want, Vetani? Money? Frie--"

- "Money!?! Do you not see what's around me? I have plenty of that. I just want to please myself. Look around sweetheart, then you will understand."

     Cages, cages everywhere. I, too, am in a cage. Interesting enough, each cage is filled with either one or three girls who seem to be beautiful and extrememly exposed. No males, just females, of all ages. My pupils dialated as my eyes widened, realizing where I was. In shock, I spoke out loud accidently,

- "A slave trade!"

     I heard a giggle escape from her mouth. I cringed again. It was a giggle but it seemed more demonic than a giggle. I can't stand this, I must escape, but how? This place is way too big for me to escape from, someone can easily see me. My eyes searched for a spot where it can be done hidden. There was none. The only way to escape is to be adopted as either a human pet or a slave. I glared at Vetani innocently as I slowy began to strip. A smile soon appeared in her face. 'Good, she's smiling. My plan has just commenced.'

- "So, Vetani, when do our future masters come?"

- "When the trade opens, my sweet. Luckily, your beauty will attract masters and some mistresses."

     Luckily. Yes, that is the right word. I layed down as I heard her walk away. She stopped and said,

- "Oh, and, Ice: Don't do anything stupid. It won't be me who suffers."

     And with that being said, she walked out the door and her guard shut it behind him quite roughly. 'Finally', I thought, 'I'm alone.' I looked around and laid my eyes on a clock that reads 2:21. I decided to go to sleep and ellaborate more of my plan. It is vital for it to be perfected by the time the masters and mistresses come. 

      Time passed by, I still slept until I heard voices of men and women filling the room. I slowly opened my eyes and a few handsome women and men were surrounding my cage. I stayed lying down posing by and by. Some masters and mistresses took an interest, and others walked away. My posing seem to fail. I looked at the other slaves and human pets and some acted a bit, interesting. I took my my time and finally began to copy them. Huh, more people are surroinding my cage. I began to think to myself, 'Where did my life go wrong? Now I have to act like a slave or a human pet.' I sighed, still thinking, 'I can't wait to get out of this. I feel like an idiot doing this sort of actions.' My body danced, my mind busy at thoughts, and my eyes wandered the room. 

- "Damn, what does it take for a guy to get a sexy pet here?"

     I heard a  deep, harsh voice scream out. My ears decided to open an search where the voice came. I finally found him.

- "Honestly! These stupid girls can't do anything."

     I glanced at him. 'You damned bastard! It is a shame you have a dirty mouth, I think you handsome.' I tried to get his attention, despite how rude he was. I am desperate, and so is he. I get closer to the bars of the cage and fully strip off of every clothes, including undergarments. I began to hear the astonishment of some masters and mistresses and saw that more masters came to see me, but still, not the guy. 'Oh, then if it won't be him to take me, then I will be more than happy to accept anyone else, prefferably a male, they are easier to decieve.'

     Murmurs are slowly heard and if I payed even more attention, I would have heard what they were talking about, but I think it was of me and how I am rude and a "dirty creature", but certainly beautiful. The whispering evanesces as a guy, big and buff with a hint of Mexican blood, approached me with keys. My breathing became heavy. 'Am I being freed? Or did somebody pay for me? Finally, I can act out my plan.' He stopped in front of my cage, put the key in the lock and let the door open and stared at me. Those greenish-blueish eyes are quite familiar. I just can't seem to tell from where I knew those eyes. 

- "Isabelle."
