The Auction

Draco POV

I pull into my drive. There is no van and no minions. Either they have been and gone or Glenn got them. I have not received a text from anyone. Not even Jayne.

I get out of the car and go around to help Tatina. I open the door and scoop her up. She is still so weak. I take her into my home. I take her directly to the guest room. I lay her on the bed still wrapped in the blanket. I enter the guest bathroom and begin running a hot bath for her. I have got to clean her up.

I leave the water running and go to retrieve her. I undress her very easily. She is covered in bruises. I remove the diapers. What has he done to her? There is not a part of her body that is not covered in bruises or blood. There are marks from a belt all over her.

I carry her to the tub. I place her in the water. She jerks as I lay her in the water. I keep my arm behind her head. She is still out of it. I wash her body carefully. The dried blood and feces that coats her body is vanishing into the water.

I unplug the tub to release it and refill it with clean water. I wash her again and again trying to make her clean. She opens her eyes. “Where am 1?" she asks.

"You are my guest. I could not have you smelling up the place. I am sorry if I scared you,” I say.

She nods and closes her eyes. She drifts back off into slumber. I pick her up out of the tub. I grab a towel and wrap it around her. I carry her back to the guest bed. I lay her on the bed wrapped in the towel. I am sure I have something here to fit you.

I reach into a drawer and find a shirt and a pair of shorts. I slip the shirt over her head. She doesn't move. I touch her leg to put the shorts on her.

“Please don't. I can't take anymore. I am sorry,” she cries.

I sip them up quickly and cover her with a sheet. I take her old clothes and the blanket out of the room. I take the disgusting things to the trash. As I am about to return to her. I hear moving in the basement. I go down to check on the woman.

Lila left her in the box. I unfasten the belts and chains. I release her. “Are you okay?” I ask.

“No, I am not,” she says.

“I will have some food brought down for you,” I say.

“Are you going to rape me now?" she asks.

“No. I have no intentions of harming you,” I say.

“Thank you,” she says.

I leave her in the basement and return to the upstairs. I go into the kitchen to let the cook know we have guests.

“Henry please prepare a meal for the guest downstairs and one in the guest room, please,” I say.

He acknowledges my request and continues with what he is doing. I leave the kitchen to check on Tatina.

My phone is buzzing in my pocket. I take it out to look to see who it is. It is Jayne.

*is she okay?*

I reply *she will be*

I go back up the stairs to the guest room to check on my guest. She is still sleeping. I know when she wakes all of this will be very confusing for her. I have to handle my little prize in the basement at some point. Right now I need to focus on Tatina.

I sit down on the end of the bed. I watch her sleep. Why in the hell was he punishing her so hard? What could she have done to make him lose it like this? I have heard stories about things he has done. I am no saint but I have never left someone in this condition.

The door opens slightly. It is Henry.

“I took the little lady in the basement food and a coke. She was most grateful. Here is something for her if she is awake,” he says.

“Thank you, Henry," I say.

I gently shake Tatina. “Tatina, you need to wake and eat,” I say.

She gently rubs her eyes. She looks at me. “Where am 1?” she asks. “Jayne asked me to take you from Craig so I did. Do you remember anything?” I ask her.

“No, I am so fuzzy,” she says.

“You need to eat. We need to get those drugs out of your system,” I say.

“Can you help me up?” she asks.

I lean over and pick her up. She is so light. I walk over to her food and sit her down. She groans. She begins to eat slowly.

“You are okay. I am going to let Jayne know where you are,” I say.

She tries to smile but her face is swollen.

“Thank you. I thought I was going to die,” she says.

“What did he do to you?” I ask.

"He was mad. He found a message from Glenn on my phone. He knew I was helping them,” she says.

“Glenn is no saint. Do not be fooled. The authority is very corrupt,” I say.

“He was treating me like a baby. Glenn told me to start calling him daddy and that it would trigger something in him to make him trust me,” She says.

“Well, Glenn set you up. I am sorry to say. It set in motion a very volatile game. Craig is a son of a bitch,” I say.

“ just wanted to help. Glenn said there were women in the basement being mistreated and he needed my help,” she says.

“Tatina the woman is here. She is in my basement but she is not hurt. I am going to help her. I promise you no harm will come to her,” I say. “Why are you buying women to breed?” she asks.

“It is not what you think. I will explain everything to you when you feel better. Please eat. I am going to call Jayne for you,” I say.

She continues eating. I pull out my phone to call Jayne. There is a text. “Trust no one. I am on the run. Give Tatina my love. Please keep her safe*

Oh shit. What have I gotten myself into now?

“Tatina, you are going to be my guest for a while. Jayne is in trouble,” I say.

I show her my phone. She begins to sob.
