for the finale of their weeklong depravity.
It’s Auction Night.
The last week of every month, men descend on this lush paradise to sample the merchandise, and ultimately purchase the greatest indulgence; a broken woman formed into a docile slave.
I continue over the travertine stone of the courtyard, making my way around the fountains and weaving between the cages holding parrots, macaws, and cute little spider monkeys locked in cages.
I pass by the Oasis, a room designed to look like the inside of a sultan’s harem, and hold my head high. The deep rumble of men’s voices carries in the air. The lightness of feminine sounds layer on top, light titters that are fake but sound real. The girls are well-trained to please. Failure isn’t an option.
To the uninitiated, it looks like a sensual paradise, but all I see are ugly men, rotten to the core, touching girls too fearful to pull away.
I endure the stares of our most recent guests. Their interest heightened only because I am untouchable.
Mr. H, in particular, can’t keep his oily gaze off of me. An oil tycoon from Texas, he’s absent morals and lacks basic human decency.
A shiver works its way down my spine as his hungry gaze sweeps over me. His slow blink churns my gut, and the way he makes a point to lick his lips brings bile rising to the back of my throat. His desire is quickly turning into obsession.
The guards never touch me. They’re not allowed that privilege, and they’re paid handsomely in the brothels outside these walls. I know because they speak of nothing else when they’re around me.
Tomas Benefield is the man I fear. Master of this place, he holds supreme power over his domain. On his whim, I can be given to any of these men; guest or guard.
He’s waiting on my ransom, and I wonder again what could be taking my father so long to meet this monster’s demands. When does my time run out?

About the Author
ELLIE MASTERS is a multi-genre and best-selling author, writing the stories she loves to read. These are dark erotic tales. Or maybe, sweet contemporary stories. How about a romantic thriller to whet your appetite? Ellie writes it all. Want to read passionate poems and sensual secrets? She does that, too. Dip into the eclectic mind of Ellie Masters, spend time exploring the sensual realm where she breathes life into her characters and brings them from her mind to the page and into the heart of her readers every day.
Ellie Masters has been exploring the worlds of romance, dark erotica, science fiction, and fantasy by writing the stories she wants to read. When not writing, Ellie can be found outside, where her passion for all things outdoor reigns supreme: off-roading, riding ATVs, scuba diving, hiking, and breathing fresh air are top on her list.
She has lived all over the United States—east, west, north, south and central—but grew up under the Hawaiian sun. She’s also been privileged to have lived overseas, experiencing other cultures and making lifelong friends. Now, Ellie is proud to call herself a Southern transplant, learning to say y’all and “bless her heart” with the best of them. She lives with her beloved husband, two children who refuse to flee the nest, and four fur-babies; three cats who rule the household, and a dog who wants nothing other than for the cats to be his best friends. The cats have a different opinion regarding this matter.
Ellie’s favorite way to spend an evening is curled up on a couch, laptop in place, watching a fire, drinking a good wine, and bringing forth all the characters from her mind to the page and hopefully into the hearts of her readers.
