Drip, drip, drip

I wake up to the noise of dripping water, well I hope it's water. I try to move but my hands and feet are restrained. I look down to see a chain connected to the wall.

Then it all comes crashing down on me. I remember Bonnie telling me to take the trash out, the dog, the men then the cloth. I look around in panic, I was in a room that just had one door. Under the door was a small light coming into the room.

Stomp, stomp, stomp

Then the walking stops at my door, you can see the shoes from the crack of dthe door blocking the light. The door opens and comes in the guy that told the guy to take me.

"Good you're awake" he says as he comes towards me.

I try to back away but it's no luck, there's a wall behind me, caging me in. At this, he just chuckles. He bends down then brings out a key and unlock the locks. I rub my wrist and hiss in pain. I look down and see marks where the handcuffs were too tight.

The mysterious guy grabs me by my arms, quite hard, and yanks me up. I don't even try to fight him, he's huge. He takes me out of the room and now I can get a good look at him. He has on an all black suit with matching black shoes. He has dark brown hair and I can see an ear pice in his ear.

"What's your name?" I ask, why would you ask that Josephina? What if he gets mad at you for talking? I seen the movies and read the books. They always have a temper.

He stops and turns to look at me. He was quite handsome, with his tan skin and bright blue eyes. But you can see he has some age on him, with the slight forming wrinkles forming on his face.

"Mark" all he says then the turns and drags me down the none stopping hallway. After 3 minutes of silence and walking, we finally come to a stop. Mark takes me to this room labeled "Beauty Room". He knocks on the door and a couple seconds later the door opens by a beautiful woman. With long red hair and with stunning green eyes. She has the perfect body at the height of 5'6.

"Thanks Mark, she will be out soon" she then turns and looks at me. She looks me up and down then takes me hand and leads me into the room.

This would be my mothers dream, clothes and makeup EVERYWHERE. The red headed lady took me to a table and sat me down. She quickly began to work on my hair.

"What am I doing here? Who are you? What's happening to me? Where am I? What are you doing to me?" The questions just fall out my mouth without thinking.

The lady just chuckles at me. "My name is Holland. You are here at the black palace. I'm here to make you look stunning so you have a better chance at being sold tonight." She says like it's nothing. SOLD?! I'm not an object, I'm a human freaking being.

"What do you mean sold? Am I in human trafficking like the movie taken? Oh my lord. This can't be happening." The lady just looks at me questionably.

"You didn't know?" She looks confused then it's like something clicked inside her head. "Ohhhhh, Dan and Mark must of taken you. I'm so sorry sweetie. Most of the girls here come here willingly." She says while I looks around the room. Most of the girls come here willingly? What is wrong with them?!

I don't get a chance to ask Holland because next minute I know I'm being turned around and having my makeup down. After 20 minutes of my face being covered they're done. I'm taken further into the room where dresses lay. Holland and another girl I don't know the name of looks around the racks of dresses.

"Found it" says holland and the other girl and I look up to see holland holding this beautiful black dress. It has beautiful design on the top that shows some of my stomach through sheer. The bottom part is completely see through but has second part that only covers what it needs. It's absolutely stunning.

Hollander turns towards me and gives me the dress and leads me to a dressing room. "What's your name?"

"Josephina but I can't wear this, it shows too much." I say as she walks me into a dressing room.

"You have to wear it Josephina, unless you want to be punished, you have to do what you're told" she tells me looking at me sympathetically.

I sigh and take the dress out of her hands. She turns around and closes the door behind her as she exists.

I take off my clothes then put the dress on. I exit the room and turn to look in the mirror and gasp. I looked like a totally different person. My straight hair was now in soft wakes, my eyes had a smoky look to it and my lips were a bring red/pink. Not to sound conceited but I looked stunning.

Holland comes up to me and smiles  while looking at me through the mirror. "You look absolutely stunning. Better than any girl that has walked in, that's for sure".

"Thank you" I say softly. She then takes my hand and takes me to wear everyone is dressed and ready. Everyone had on bright colors while I was the only one in black. Making me stand out drastically.

"Okay everyone listen up" says Holland as she walks to the front of the room, "everyone get into a line with Josephina in the back." It seems that everyone knew everyone here so they knew I was the new girl. Some gave me dirty looks, some gave me small smile and others didn't even glance my way.

After we're lined up we exit the room and took another one with a stage in it. You can hear voices and music but nobody could see us because of a curtain covering the back stage. I turn to look for Holland and I see her walking towards me.

"Just breath, you're going to go last. There are men out there who could buy everyone back here so just behave. Don't look them in the eye and don't talk back. Just don't talk till your talked to. Okay?" She says to me as some girls names get called and walked out to stage.

"Okay." I say then take a deep breath. This cannot happen to me. I'm about me be sold. Sold. Has in an object. But then again, my life wasn't the greatest. But that wasn't an excuse for me being sold.

Then I hear something that has my blood racing my heart beating heavy.

"Please welcome to the stage Josephina, she is new to the black palace"

Holland shoved me to the steps that lead to the stage. I took a deep breath and I pushed the curtains opened and walked out to the center of the stage.
