Page 21 of Virginity Sold

Before I can even broach the topic with the boys, the lights dim, and Edward’s voice comes over the speakers.

“Good Evening ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to Club Lust. We are pleased to have sixteen lots of merchandise up for sale tonight. Please remember once the lights are fully off that no one is to move from their seats. This auction will be silent. As I announce the merchandise, a head shot will appear on your tablets. I will provide information on each lot. If you are interested, the starting bid is five hundred thousand and will go up in increments of fifty thousand until it reaches one million. At that time, each bid will raise by five hundred thousand.”

You can tell who the novice bidders are by their gasps. Kyrian leans in and whispers something to Killian that I can’t hear, but whatever he says has him rolling his eyes in response. I shift in my seat as I continue listening, tapping Killian’s hand to ensure he does the same.

“You can click the bid button as many times as you desire. Each auction will only be open for five minutes. At the end of that time, the tablets will announce the winning bid number only. As a reminder, we do not use names. If you are outbid, it will flash across your screen to bid again and if you win, the tablet will flash that you are the winner. Just a reminder if you bid for two people and win tonight, then your tablet is automatically locked, preventing you from any additional bidding.”

The lights dim and the tablets turn on.

“Our first lot for the night is Virtue.”

Chapter 11

Kyrian

The darkness envelops everything, leaving only the stage lit with its brilliant glow. I can see the dim outline of my brother and uncle from where they sit next to me at our table. We found ourselves among the fortunate few, nestled comfortably in a semi-circular leather booth. Our tablet is in the middle, so we can all see it.

The screen comes to life and the picture of one of the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen pops up. Her bio reads like a recipe: Five-foot-five, brown hair, chocolate eyes, thirty-four C breasts.

It’s like I’m one of the guys in the eighties movie Dad used to love to watch, where they created their own woman. Fuck if she wasn’t a smoke show just like Virtue.

“Virtue is twenty, and just as her name and attire suggest, one hundred percent pure. That’s right, ladies and gentlemen, you’re bidding on a virgin. Who wants to be the first to have her? Let the bidding start at five hundred thousand,” Edward’s voice booms through the speaker.

If I thought she was gorgeous in her picture, I was wrong. It doesn’t compare to the goddess stepping out onto the stage. She keeps her head down, her hands fidgeting restlessly at her sides.

A fucking virgin at twenty! She’s a fucking unicorn if there ever was one.

I've never been with someone who was still a virgin, not even when I lost my own. Nope, I lost mine to a high schooler when I was fourteen. I was young and dumb. The only thing on my horny teenage brain was getting my dick wet.

Cala had an ulterior motive, and I was oblivious to it. She was looking for status and a way into my family so she could sink her teeth into Killian. Cala saw being with me as a way to get closer to Killian and hopefully tricking him into bed and getting pregnant.

The one flaw in her plan was that he wasn’t at all interested in her. Instead of taking her chance and having a back-up plan with me, she made sure I wore a condom. Guess she didn’t want to end up with the kid brother as a father to her baby.

Her loss, seeing as she didn’t end up with anything other than a reputation for being a slut. If I’m not mistaken, she’s on baby daddy number four now and living off public assistance.

Virtue’s nervous. It’s evident in how awkwardly she walks to the middle of the stage. She’s like a duck out of water in her heels and when she loses her footing and stumbles, a cacophony of gasps erupts in the audience.

Her ankle rolls in the sky-high white heels, but by the grace of god she’s able to recover and quickly rights her body and does a turn. I can’t help the groan that rips from my mouth when I see her plump ass. All I can fucking think about is how badly I want to bend her over a table while I fuck her tight hole.

Movement in my peripheral catches my attention and I see Uncle Liam make a bid, but the button doesn’t light up green. Shit, someone’s already trying to steal her right out from under us.

Uncle Liam doesn’t relent and bids again, and it lights up green. Both he and Killian are sitting upright and rigid in their seats. They're studying her with such intensity, as if they know who she is. I open my mouth to say something but quickly press my lips back together. The warning my family gave me, living rent free in my brain. But once this is over, I firmly plan to question them about their reaction to seeing her.

If I could jump in the air and do a fist pump, I would. But I can’t. They were very clear about the rules before we left the house.

The more Edward says about Virtue, the higher the bid grows. As soon as Uncle Liam enters one, it’s quickly countered.

My nerves are on edge and I can’t watch the tablet any longer. I let my eyes wander back up to the stage and the beauty that’s on it.

She shifts her weight from foot to foot, her gaze firmly fixed on the ground beneath her. Come on Virtue, look up. Let me see those chocolate eyes so I can gaze into your soul.

It’s as if we share a psychic connection, because her head shifts upward right on cue. She doesn’t know it but she’s staring straight at me and my cock twitches in appreciation at her.

Beside me, there’s a stir of movement, and the light from the tablet shifts closer to Uncle Liam and Killian, shining softly in their faces. They’re whispering in muffled words to each other as they continue to bid on Virtue. It takes a moment, but when I’m able to see the bid light up after they finally get one to flash green, it’s already at five million.

I almost faint at the amount they’re spending on her, and I’m curious as to why.

What pussy is worth that much money? It’s what I would have asked before seeing Virtue. I get why now.
