Andrew's POV
The limo came to a stop in the underground parking area of Peppa's warehouse, the same warehouse that held building materials but had an underground trafficking ring which he use to traffick illegal immigrants, kidnapped black women and children, sometimes willing black women.
When I got word last night that Peppa just got another batch of women and children including some legal immigrants he had kidnapped and was hosting a gala tonight to disguise the auction of those women and children so his psychotic rich friends and all those interested can buy and own human sex slaves or modern house slaves I was beyond angry, I was enraged.
He would usually sell the children to be used as household slaves but tonight he was looking to branch out and sell some of the little girls to old pedophile men as child sex slaves, that was when I knew I had to step in and set the ball rolling for my plan. I can't stand back and watch children and women suffer knowing I could have done something about it.
My best friend turned brother Tommy Davis and I got to know about Peppa's trafficking ring a year ago and we have been planning and scheming ways to bring him, his organization and all who supported and funded him down. We knew this would not be an easy task so we had to be extra cautious and make out solid plans before setting those plans into motion.
Bringing down Peppa Emrys was not going to be a walk in the pack considering all the support, funding, and patronage he had from wealthy, influencial men and women around the country even from top government officials. For the past one year we have been working on a plan which would help us reveal Peppa for the monster he really was and hopefully that would be able to put him away for a long time, preferably the rest of his life.
Peppa had the press wrapped around his little finger, he had everyone blinded by his charms and used his charitable donations towards helping immigrants coming into Italy from various third world countries in search of greener pastures get on their feet as a veil for his illegal acts. He has set up so many shelters for them to live in and catered for their every need successfully covering up his real intentions. The media loved him, the people loved him and saw him as some kind of saviour.
Some journalist in the past who had gotten a whiff of his horrible dealings and tried to expose him were either found dead under mysterious circumstances, missing or they just abandoned and destroyed their research with claims that they never started any such research.
Those women who tried to escape were killed while those who managed to escape and sought for help were also found dead, the police would rule their death as casualties and no investigations would be carried out.He had tried to get me to attend one of his gala/auctions in the past, he had even offered me willing sex slaves as gift before all which I had turned down but I knew if my plan had to work I'll need to get in his good books.
Tommy and I are part of the few wealthy and influential people he hasn't been able to get on his side which has kept him on his toes, our honouring his invitation tonight will strike a friendly cord which is exactly what we need to start off our plan.
I will try to buy as many women and children as I can tonight that way I know they are safe and would be treated better than they ever will be in the hands of other people present tonight.Stepping out of the limo I thanked my chauffeur Matt who held the door open for me I walked to the door where Peppa was waiting to meet me. Tommy would be arriving separately, we have been able to infiltrate his organization and planted some of our men so we can get first hand information on all his dealings.
" Ah, Mr Andrew Enrico, it's a pleasure to have you here tonight." He was dressed in a cream coloured suit,his black hair gelled back and dark brown eyes gleamed.
"The pleasure is all mine Mr Peppa, I'm looking to have a good time and I hear only you can provide me with that."
Struggling to keep the little smile on my lips in place I took his outstretched hands in a firm handshake resisting the urge to wipe my hands on my pants when he let go, I could barely keep the disgust out of my voice.
"This way."
With a satisfied smile on his face he stretched his hand towards the door on the other side of the hallway we were in, I'm guessing that was where the gala would be happening. As we approached two men dressed in black opened the double doors and we stepped into a medium sized hall with a large wooden podium at the front with curtain on either side of it. Men and women stood in groups around the room chatting animatedly among themselves while servers moved around with wine trays balanced in their hands"This is where all the fun happens, bid well my friend." placing a small phone like object with numbered buttons on it in my palms he patted my shoulders and walked out of the room this time I didn't resist, retrieving my handkerchief from my breast pocket I wiped at the spot his hand had touched.
The light in the room went off as a bright beam light came on right above the wooden podium.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the exclusive gala hosted by Peppa Emrys. If you're here tonight you're either here to have fun or to showcase your wealth, just type in your bid into the devices you have been given it would change to green if your bid has been accepted. Now, Let the bidding begin!!! " A voice announced.
Men dressed in black with dark sunglasses dragged black women in one after the other, some of them naked, some in only their underwear, some in over sized faded t-shirts, some were hysterical, some dropped silent tears, some were weirdly quiet and some were even willing but so far none had of them had shown any form of resistance apart from the usual resignation, it seemed they had all resigned to their fate. Men and women were bidding and winning while I just stood quietly and watched.
Just then a guard dragged in a very reluctant girl he was evidently having trouble controlling, her sexy small petite body covered by a faded over sized t-shirt that reached just below her ass, she had really beautiful dark shiny skin and shiny brown eyes glistening with unshed tears she was obviously trying really hard to hold back and her curly black hair was plastered with dirt sticking in all directions.
"Behold" the voice called "The black Rose, ladies and gentlemen let the bidding begin at two thousand dollars"
She tried to make out where the voice was coming from, I saw the fire burning within her eyes full of determination and will to survive. Suddenly she jerked her hands out of the guards grasp, and kneed him where the sun doesn't shine.
A sense of pride swelled in my chest as I watched the guard fall to his knees clutching his groin, she tried to escape but the guard quickly regained composure and tackled her to the floor and brought her back to the center of the podium.I watched as he wrapped his fingers around her small neck choking her not missing the way she stared back at him boldly, this tiny little woman was literally staring death in the face.
"Fifteen million dollars"
My voice was final daring anyone to counter me, I was prepared to pay more than that if anyone had made a higher bid luckily no one did."Sold"
The anchor's voice finalized.Her eyes finally shut and her body fell limp as the guard scooped her up and carried her through the curtain. I don't know why I had bought this girl or why she seemed so intriguing but I knew for sure I would enjoy breaking her will and quenching that fire burning withing her eyes.
Just like the dark, twisted and possessive man I was, she had become my possession and I wasn't planning on letting go any time soon.
