A couple days have passed and things were rough. I mostly sat in my room, staring at a wall since have been here.
I haven't had to do the unimaginable yet though which I was grateful for.
I'm sure that wouldn't last long.
Sometimes I would mouth off just to get them to give me a pill.
I was trying to control my addiction by hiding the pills under my tongue to throw them away later, but I needed to feel numb.
There was literally nothing to do, and my emotions were shot. I needed the numb to get me through it sometimes.
I was laying on my bed, staring at the ceiling when the door opened. "Get ready. We're having a party." Adam said as he walked into the room. "Kay." I mumbled, but didn't move.
"I'm going to pick your outfit out since you have to look especially nice." He said then went up to the wardrobe and sifted through the clothes.
"You need to shower. You look disgusting." Adam said then pulled out a tiny hot pink two piece set consisting of a bra like top and a mini skirt.
It was hardly any clothes so I already knew I would be uncomfortable all night.
"You don't give me access to a shower." I mumbled as he nodded. "Right. I'll take you there." He said then looked at me.
"Get up." He said as I nodded and stood up. I didn't want to be so submissive but fighting would just get me in trouble.
I knew I wasn't going to get out of here any time soon, so I had to just go with the flow until I could figure out an escape plan.
Adam led me down the hallway and towards a bathroom. "You have ten minutes. Use them wisely." He said then gestured for me to walk in.
It was starting to really bother me that I wasn't treated like a human and that I couldn't do literally anything without someone watching.
I knew that when Colby had taken me hostage I felt the same way, but this was much much worse.
When I walked into the bathroom I closed the door then turned the shower on.
I noticed that the water wasn't getting super hot so I assumed all of the girls shared this one bathroom.
I hoped that when I got out of here, I could save the rest of the girls, too.
I showered, trying to be as quick as possible but as soon as I was done rinsing the body wash off of me, Adam was coming into the room.
"Alright, you're done." He said then opened the shower curtain and started pulling me out of the shower.
"Stop!" I yelled and tried to fight him off. "You're such a slow learner, I swear to god." Adam said then punched me in the head, causing me to cry out in pain.
I wanted to keep fighting, but knew I would only get more hurt. "Here." Adam said harshly then handed me a towel. "Thanks." I mumbled then covered myself with it.
"There's makeup in your room. Look nice. You're a product and you need to be at your best." He said, sending a chill down my spine.
I couldn't understand how someone could be so inhumane and how this was able to take place at all.
Surely someone thought this was morally wrong.
I got to my room and started drying my hair. Someone had brought a hair dryer and a curling iron in here so I could get myself ready.
I didn't really want to get myself ready because it would make this situation a reality.
Colby thought I left him, and he wasn't going to come looking for me.
I was almost done getting ready, when the door opened revealing one of the members of this gang that I didn't know.
I immediately covered my body since it was so exposed.
"Come on." He said then jutted his head back so I would follow him. "And stop covering up. The point is for them to see your body." He grumbled as bile traveled up my throat.
"I wanna go home." I mumbled as he nodded. "This is your home now, get used to it." He said blandly.
I thought that Colby was good at seeming unbothered in disgusting situations like this, but these guys were better.
They didn't give a fuck.
When we got downstairs we were met with a crowd of men wearing nice suits.
They were all milling around and talking while girls walked around in as little clothes as I was wearing.
"Smile." The guy who was leading me said with a hint of aggression. I didn't want to smile because I was so far from happy, but I did what I was told.
When we got to the crowd, the guy who was leading me walked away, leaving me alone.
I stood around for a while, watching as men looked me up and down, some of them licking their lips and others smirking.
I could feel my heart rate picking up as I picked at my nails. "You must be new." A man said as he took a step towards me. I nodded, trying to keep myself calm.
"She's a pretty little thing isn't she, John?" He said and nudged the guy next to him.
"What's your rate, darling?" John said and brushed his hand along my cheek. "I don't know." I whispered, trying to keep myself from throwing up.
"Joey must have not assigned you yet." He said with a laugh. "I'm sure he'll put a big price tag on you, sweetheart." The guy said as I swallowed hard.
"Don't look so nervous. We don't bite." The original one who talked to me said and took a step closer.
I nodded nervously as an arm snaked around my shoulders. "Gentleman. Are we having a good time?" Will asked as the men nodded.
"We were looking for a rate from this beautiful thing." John said and gestured to me.
"She's not priced yet. Hopefully after tonight." He said as my stomach ached.
"Now if you'll excuse me. I have to show Juliana something." Will said then nodded to the men before escorting me away.
I let him lead the way through the crowd before he walked down a hallway and into a random room.
Once the door was closed I turned to him and clenched my jaw.
"Julia.." He said as I shook my head. "How could you?" I asked as he closed his eyes.
"It's more complicated than you think." He said with a sigh. "How could you do this to Colby and I?! You know what we've been through." I said, my eyes watering.
"I need you to understand that this has nothing to do with you." He said as anger boiled within me.
"What do you mean?! I'm being sold like a piece of fucking furniture! This is disgusting and wrong!" I cried out as he flinched.
"Julia, keep your voice down." He warned. "No!" I yelled as he lunged forward and put his hand over my mouth.
"Julia." He said and raised his brows at me. My eyes were watering as the door swung open.
"Ah. How did I know?" Adam said then glared at me. "I knew you would be a problem." He said with annoyance.
"Adam, It was-" Will started but immediately shut up when Adam held his hand up.
"I don't want to hear excuses. You're coming with me." Adam said then grabbed my arm harshly, pulling me out of the room.
I gasped in pain as he pulled me up a stairwell and down a hallway.
The aggression was pouring off of him so much that I was genuinely scared for my life.
When we finally got to my room, he threw me onto the ground.
"You need to learn respect." He said then started kicking me. I cried out in pain, closing my eyes as he beat the absolute shit out of me.
I noticed that he was avoiding my face and I had to assume it was because I was a product to them now.
Nobody would want to sleep with me if I had bruises on my face, but they would think I liked it rough if I had them on my body.
"Please stop." I begged, tears streaming down my cheeks. "Get it through your fucking head that you've been taken." He said then leaned down and grabbed my face.
"Why are you doing this?" I whispered shakily. "I don't have to tell you shit." He said then kicked me one more time before turning to leave the room.
"Stay up here." He grumbled then left the room, locking the door.
As soon as he left I burst into tears, curling up into a ball on the floor. I was so confused as to why I was here since I knew Colby wasn't going to come look for me.
I was going to be trapped here until I got killed, or killed myself.
