Auction Swap: COMPLETED

Chapter 8

holy crap guys another chapter! I hope you enjoy this :D

It had been a few days and Rose spent some time after her job trying to gather some information about another skeleton monster. Sans used her computer while she was at work looking for monster movement in the market. Basically seeing who was buying and what they might be interested in. so far he had found some underground fighting rings—they were not illegal but they were frowned upon. It had been in the news early one morning about a ring that had been discovered close by a few counties over, but it was on the move. He decided to look into them out of curiosity.

He found them and started checking the social media sites—humans tended to blab on those things there might be a mention of some skeleton monster there...he really hoped not he didn't want to think of his younger innocent brother in that sort of situation. These monsters were in a gladiatorial pit—made to fight to the death for their owners and for them to get monetary gain.

Rose was coming up with a lot of nothing. She had asked her step mother if she had seen any skeletons go through her breeding facility or know of any of her friends seeing one. So far that had turned up with nothing. Her father was less helpful. He had refused to talk about it, but said he would if Rose sold Sans to him. Rose knew that was not going to happen and she hung up on the man.

The Warren was the last place she could go...

She called them and set up a meeting after work, she called Sans right after and told him she had to work a little longer this evening.

She drove to work that night and it didn't take her long after her shift to head over there. She was greeted by the head Warden.

"Good evening Miss Rose."

"Good evening Mr. Ranco."

"Please just call me Marshall. I heard from my secretary that you were wanting to inquire about a particular skeleton."

"Yes sir." She was ushered out of the lobby and taken to the back where his office sat. he closed the door and offered her a seat and something to drink. She accepted the first and declined the latter.

"So is this the skeleton you purchased from us?"

"No sir, I was curious if there were others available."

"Others?"

"it—it seems I have a fascination with them." she hoped she wouldn't have to give the Warden any more clues—this was embarrassing to begin with. But if she acted like she needed to get a fix of a certain monster play into the fetish card or something of that nature she might get the information easier.

"Oh—I see—well Miss Rose—Skeletons are a rarity among the monster species."

"I had a bad feeling that was true." she pouted.

"Is the monster you purchased from us—not satisfying you?"

"Oh of course—I just needed something a little more."

"I will put some feelers out and see if I can't locate something for you—but there are no guarantees you must understand."

"Oh of course I understand, thank you Mr. Ranco. I am really grateful. You won't tell anyone what I need another one for will you?" she didn't have to play at the blush on her cheeks as she looked at the man.

"No—I would never tell anyone, client confidentiality Miss Rose."

"Thank you again. I will look forward to your call no matter what the news." She flirted and felt like she needed to go home and take a long hot shower to disinfect herself. She could tell the older guy was into her, as if turned on by her weird "fetish" the only real way she was going to get an audience with him.
