I go back to the waiting area. I am so thankful Jayne was there to save me. What would have happened if she would not have been there to rescue me. I know what would have happened. I would have been raped on that nasty floor but the pig. I just have to stay with the group.
I wait for what seems like forever. Almost everyone has left the room but me. I could take a nap while I wait. I move over to a couch and lay down. I can close my eyes just for a second. "Tatina, honey wakeup," Jayne says as she nudges me softly.
"Hey, I have some great news for you. Come with me," she says.
I open my eyes and gather myself. I was sleeping so sound. I don't think I was even dreaming. I was just in a deep solid sleep.
"I am coming," I say.
My brain feels all fuzzy. It must be from the shots wearing off. "Tatina Honey, Mr. Craig Madallion has won your auction. He is sending a man up to pick you up. He is very nice. He has a home in New Orleans. We need to get you into something more comfortable. Follow me," she says.
"What do you know about him?" I ask.
Jayne leads me to her private room, she hands me a bag. "Change and I will get you something to take all of that off of your face," she says.
Jayne leaves me to change. I strip off the garb I am wearing and look in the bag she gave me. There is a pair of black leggings, a purple top, a sports bra, cotton panties, socks, and shoes. Thank goodness for something normal to put on.
Jayne comes back with a warm cloth and makeup remover. "Here this should do the trick," she says,
"Thank you. My face was starting to itch from all this stuff on my face. I have never been one to wear a lot of makeup. It just feels icky," I tell her.
"Well you are far too beautiful to have all of that on your face," she says.
"Why are you being so kind to me?" I ask.
"Tatina you deserve some kindness in your life. You should not even be here. What your parents have done to you is horrible. I have to confess. When I found out you were in the auction I called Craig and encouraged him to bid. He was my brother-in-law. My sister died last year and he could really use a sweet face in his life," she says.
"I don't understand," I say.
"Listen Craig has a nice home and he has plenty of money. You will be very well taken care of, but he is not a cakewalk. He loved my sister. They were very happy. He can be bullheaded and trust me it was hell getting him to bid on you. But I am convinced. I told him he needed help and you needed someone to help you. He will help you get educated. He will be a friend. But and there is a big but in all of this He can be a real ass," she says.
"So how do I handle him?" I ask.
"Just be sweet and sassy. Be kind and considerate. Be you," Jayne says.
"Is he a vampire?" I ask.
"Yes and my sister was a Fairy just like you, We come from very similar backgrounds you and I. We have the same Fairy clan blood. That is why it is so important to me that you be okay," She says.
"Are you a hybrid?" I ask.
"No, but my sister was," Jayne says.
"Oh. I don't really understand how it skips some people," I say.
"Me either. My sister was a hybrid and I am just a Fairy even though we have the same parents. I only got the Fairy genes. I don't mind. I am not sure I could handle being both. She did it well. Just like you will," She says.
I try to pull my tangled hair back. Forget it. I will handle it when I get where I am going. I am sure he will allow me to shower and wash this mop when I get there.
"They are here for you," Jayne says.
"Thank you, Jayne. I hope to see you soon. Just not here," I tell her.
Jayne hugs me and kisses me on the cheek. "You will I live very close to Craig. When I am home I will be checking on you," Jayne says.
"Promise?" I ask.
"I am only a phone call away. Craig will get you a cell phone when you get there. We can text each other. I want to know how you are doing," she says.
A man in a black suit comes into the room. He looks like the secret service. "Jayne, I am here for the pickup," he says.
"Tatina, Your ride is here," she says. She kisses me again on the cheek and smiles.
Arriving in New Orleans to start my new adventure I have no idea exactly how I should feel. As we drive across the bridge into the city I feel so many different emotions. The bridge we are crossing is huge. It is like nothing I have ever seen before. As we cross into the city I feel this feeling. The feeling that maybe I belong here. I have not been here before and I am not sure why I feel this way, but I almost feel as if maybe I am glowing as we drive into New Orleans.I knock on the glass separating me and the driver, "Sir, May I ask how much further," I ask.He rolls down the divider. "We are almost there. Traffic might hold us up some but we should be at the mansion soon," he responds."Thank you," I reply.I sit back in my seat as he rolls the glass back up. Not very friendly but I have enjoyed the quiet ride. I have not even been that nervous. Honestly, this overwhelming feeling of belonging i
Lila POVI leave the new girl alone in her room. I don't think she realizes what is to come. They never know when they come here. They are all full of hope and joy. Damn the phone is ringing. I run down the hall to grab it. It is probably Craig.I pick up the old black phone. I glance around to make sure no one is around. "Hello," I speak softly."Lila, Is she settled in?" Mr. Craig asks."Yes. I have her. She is in her room settling in. She is quite beautiful Mr. Craig," I say."Good. I will be back tonight. Make sure she is comfortable. DO NOT scare her. Be nice if you know how. Check on her often. Make sure she has everything she needs. Got IT!" he says demandingly. He hangs up before I can respond.He acts as if I do not know my job. I have helped him gather perfect breeding bitches from the auction. Of course, this is the first time Jayne got involved. P
Tatina POVLila walks quickly as we jet down to the seafood bar. I wonder why she is acting so strange. Probably nothing. I have lived my life being around people acting strange. She seems to care about me and everything going on with me. I am probably just I don't know being ridiculous. We walk up to a bar at the end of Bourbon Street. This has been the longest walk ever. Maybe it has not. Maybe I am being dramatic. I am tired and extremely hungry.We arrive at the seafood bar and it is all blacked out. The windows are black and there is no sign. Lila doesn't seem bothered by it. But for me, I find it somewhat disturbing about all of this. It seems off to me. Of course, I have never been here before so maybe this is perfectly normal."Lila, I do not mean to sound ungrateful, but why is well why this place is all well you know ....it is blacked out. And to be honest it is giving me the creeps." I ask. I am trying to be a
LILA POVThis little girl needs to just be grateful we are being so kind to her. A young woman in her position could have ended up in a very bad place. We will get what we want from her. But we will not hurt her. She will be set for life. All she has to do is breed a few hybrids and she can be on her merry little way."Tatina, you look so worried," I say. I desperately am trying to sound sympathetic. It is hard when you feel like someone is so damn ungrateful."I am fine. This place just looks a little creepy," she says.Her innocence, Mr. Craig will play on that. He will have her eating out of the palm of his hand. She just wants to be loved so badly."Oh darling, I understand. But what I do not understand is why you think I would put you in harm's way," I say. I am trying to not come off as a bitch, but I probably did.She sits there across from me. Looking
Tatina POVDinner with Lila was ridiculous. It just made me uneasy. She seemed preoccupied with something else. Maybe I am worrying too much. It just feels strange. And the vampire she spoke with at the restaurant. Something about all of that did not sit right with me. I will not make the mistake of questioning her again.I get to meet Mr. Craig tonight. I will freshen up before he gets here and maybe change clothes. I am not sure what I should wear or say or look like or how to be. I could just try calming down a little and be myself. I am sure everything will be fine. I am just not sure about Lila. The best thing for me to do is keep my mouth shut and listen.Someone is knocking on my door. "Come in," I say."Mr. Craig is home early and waiting for you in the study," she says. I have no idea who she is. She is very small. She is even smaller than me and looks very pregnant."Th
Tatina POVSitting here in his lap with him feeling my body, is unbelievable. I have never had someone make me feel so good. He kisses me so softly yet so passionately. His hand running up my thigh makes my body tingle and shaky. I am not sure how to react to him. I am not sure what is appropriate. How do I make him feel the correct way? Where should I touch him?"Are you okay?" he asks.I lay my head on his shoulder as he takes his hand up my inner thigh higher getting closer to my sweet spot. "I am. I am just a little nervous about what you are doing," I respond.He takes his hand closer to my middle. He gently rubs me. "Do not be nervous. I will not hurt you," he says.Something in me tells me I can believe him, but I still need to proceed with caution. "I need to know. I do not mean any disrespect, Mr. Craig. Are you planning to take my virginity tonight?" I ask him.&nb
Tatina POVMr. Craig sits on the side of his bed. "You can go back to your room now," he says.I gather myself. I am not sure how I feel. I wasn't expecting him to snuggle up to me and tell me he was in love with me, but I wasn't expecting him to just toss me aside either."Yes sir," I say. I get out of the bed and dress myself. I start to cry. Why the hell am I crying?"Stop that. I am not mad at you. I am mad at myself. I shouldn't have done that with you. It was wrong of me. I am sorry. Go back to your and take a bath. I will come to see you tonight and we can talk," he says."Yes sir," I say.I go out of his room and walk swiftly to his room. I wonder if he thinks I am a whore. I should've said No. I go into the bathroom and run myself a bath. I slip out of my clothes. I check the water to see if it is hot. I need hot water to wash the whore off of me. Ev
Lila POVJackson has to text me constantly about the breeders. I should've just gone myself. I have got three says to get another breeder ready for Mr. Craig's auction on Saturday night. I wonder how he plans to explain that to Tatina. She will hate him when she finds out. As soon as she decides she is done with him, I will auction her off.I believe I can still get a pretty penny for her. He just had to take her virginity, but considering the tribe, she is from I can still get a lot of money for her. There are not many left from the aurora tribe. My phone is dinging again. I check my phone. Jackson. Damn him. He doesn't have enough sense to even walk around.*Got three. Adeline, Adomele, and Aurora *Well, finally the boy did something right. We have to keep them in the basement far away from Tatina. I cannot have her feeling sorry for them and letting them go. I will let Mr. Craig enjoy her for a w
