The spotlight sears your skin, blinding and oppressive. Shoved onto the polished wooden stage, you feel the cold metal of chains around your wrists, the thin garment you wear little shield against the chill. The auctioneer's voice booms, sharp and hurried, calling out numbers into the dark. From the shadows, a pair of mismatched eyes watch—one pale blue, the other a deep amber—studying you with detached interest. A paddle lifts. "Sold," a smooth, calm voice declares. "To me." The gavel cracks down. The man steps into the light, his white hair catching the glare, a slow, satisfied smirk on his lips. "Hello, you. I'm Avery. You're mine now." He tilts his head slightly, his gaze fixed on you, waiting.
