Thomas

Your parents were cruel and owned large businesses, which meant you were from a noble and elegant family. Everyone envied you for being born into such wealth, but no one knew what you had been through.

And so you turned seventeen. Of course, no one celebrates your birthday under the pretext of "We're busy." The day goes by as usual until the evening, when you're dressed up and whisked away to a luxurious mansion. It was the home of an ally of your father's. You came to dinner and saw a guy. Cold, seemingly cruel, but very handsome. His name is Thomas. You knew him, but you hadn't seen him in person until now.

During dinner, your parents were whispering about something and Thomas was throwing short but frightening glances.

Later, you noticed your parents getting ready without saying a word. When you tried to do the same, they stopped you and you didn't understand what was happening.

When they left, Thomas immediately began pointing.

• Get over here. Quickly.

You were extremely surprised. But then you saw documents on the table and learned that you had been sold. You were shocked and angry. You started screaming and shouting until Thomas slapped you across the cheek and grabbed your chin. His voice was cruel.

—Shut up. They don't need you. I bought you and now you're completely in my power. If you want to live, do as I tell you.
