Ethan felt his senses returning to him slowly, his mind incredibly muddled. He eventually managed to open his eyes but his vision was blurry and it made him dizzy. Moving, even slightly, felt like an insurmountable task. He closed his eyes again, waiting for the world to stop spinning.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QmdnN2Rro
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wc8i1OVg6
He knew he was sitting down. He could feel bindings around his ankles and wrists and concluded that he was tied to a chair. His right elbow was tied securely as well, probably to the arm of said chair. The restraints were uncomfortably tight but he couldn't feel any significant pain in his body. He could feel the air on his chest, so they'd taken his shirt too, and the rough concrete floor under his bare feet.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWefUHz341
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwqlPCm4RJ
Ethan felt a stab of pain rush up his right arm and he cracked opened his eyes, immediately noticing a man fiddling with something on his right arm. His view was blocked but he could guess what the man was up to. They're black market dealers, he thought as a weight dropped in his stomach.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw94PSbUoL3
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUFpfzPZ3K
Ethan looked at the dealer, who hadn't noticed he was awake, and tried to force his eyes to focus properly. The man looked to be in his forties and was wearing large rim glasses. He had a large build and was dressed all in black. Despite the man's age, Ethan didn't fancy his odds in a fair fight against his captor.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnAqWQANZ6
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwtQqCsgRc
Ethan's gaze wandered, his vision still adjusting. He noticed the number eighteen was written on the back of his left hand. The black numbers stood out against his paler than usual skin. So they've caught seventeen Charax before me, he thought grimly, and I get to be lucky number eighteen.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgCnshiW1L
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv48AqWNZtA
Ethan saw the man disconnect the full bag of blood then continue working on his arm. Now that he'd moved, Ethan could see the needle embedded in his forearm. He'd already been feeling terrible but now he had to fight down bile as his body reacted to the foreign object. Needles usually made him feel a bit nauseous but this was worst than usual, the reaction combining with the drugs still in his system. He shut his eyes suddenly, taking a deep breaths to calm himself.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJTcoiV3Se
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4nAnp7Aea
Ethan opened his eyes again to take in his surroundings, trying really hard not to look at the needle. Not to think about it. Just the idea of it was making him nauseous. Trying to distract himself, his gaze fell to the floor and onto the dark splotches on the dirty concrete. Probably blood from a previous occupant. A lot of blood. His stomach churned. He looked away.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOic0kTsGFl
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJe4tnLn6M
He only now noticed there was a woman with olive skin and very unnatural looking platinum blond hair standing a few feet away. She was sitting on the edge of a table that was scattered with medical supplies.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFLypJE8BU
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuA9CNwK8jF
The red plastic bags on the table caught his eye. Blood. His blood. He guessed these were black market dealers. Probably going to claim his blood had some sort of miraculous healing properties as they sold it off to the highest bidder.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtyqdnRqWi
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJ6PQHlzdl
He tried to stay positive, if they wanted a blood bank then his chances of staying alive went up. The longer I'm alive, the longer I have to escape, he thought hopefully. He saw the man had attached an IV to his arm and hung a bag of clear fluid above his head.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlovaQ1gpqq
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRuTqn2jHR
"What are you doing?" Ethan mumbled, still dazed and more than a little confused.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdq68p9irE
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXrytV6VCJ
"Look who's awake." The blonde woman smiled at him in a way that sent shivers down his spine.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxFTneqorO
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGwYAP854t
Ethan felt a little more aware now, as if whatever they'd given him was wearing off. He found he could move, even if it felt like his muscles were made of spaghetti. He shifted in his restraints slightly to discover they were as tight as they felt. His male captor ignored the his motion and moved behind him, out of his field of view.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkK6jlnIoDF
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjWjD0hQQz
"Where am I?" Ethan mumbled to no one in particular, looking around the room for an exit. No windows, but there was a wooden door in the corner behind him. It looked old and fragile, the paint was peeling off it just like on the walls.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47wh7At3RB
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4bURgxexn
"Josephine, get over here." Ethan heard from the man behind him. "Hold him still."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUIgMYbt5o
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndtRAbLGcq
Ethan made note of the name, the woman must be Josephine. He watched nervously as she approached, preparing to fight off the urges of the heat that would surely come. She wasted no time grabbing hold of his jaw and pushing his head back against the metal back of the chair so he couldn't move it. He could feel her fingers digging in.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVe3eUtHyYP
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCibho985wd
To his relief, he didn't immediately break down and beg her to fuck him. The sensation of her skin on his sent tingles across his face and down his neck but... that seemed to be all. He didn't get hard. His mind didn't go blank. He was still there, mostly. He noticed his mind was... foggy but that may have been the drug.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmERDeURS7F
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRILPiOD8sW
Ethan was utterly surprised by how his body was reacting. He had thought any woman touching him in this state would have been unbearable, sending the heat symptoms into overdrive, but that wasn't exactly what was happening. He felt arousal growing at the back of his mind, but it was still containable, still controllable. He fought the urges his body was producing, urges excited by the touch of her skin.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDgbtjyoN9
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XpmQEW7Kc
He wasn't sure why this was happening. Perhaps the drugs they had used to knock him out were working in his favour, acting like water on the raging fire that had been his heat so far. Or maybe the Trazinol hadn't worn off yet. It didn't matter, all he knew was that he desperately wanted her to stop touching him.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDFKLPr6No
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWxILIm6Dc
Ethan struggled as hard as he could to get her off but she had no trouble holding him in place. He was still weak and the bindings had no give either. He only felt her fingers digging in deeper, hard enough to hurt. He focused on the pain and used it to ground himself, trying to ignore everything else he was feeling.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmfCIhozMo
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx78EAGDlJY
Ethan heard the snip snip sound of scissors behind his head. He wasn't sure why they'd be interested in a DNA test if they already knew he was Charax. It would be obvious soon enough, once the heat symptoms came back in full force.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSXPKoqRE4
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJw77p5rM9
Her eyes darted upwards to the man cutting his hair. "Done?"147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWiRTO770T
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAne0Noits
"I got enough," the other one replied as he walked over the to table.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDVQm4d4qd
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWA45vHn2yh
Josephine forced Ethan's face from side to side as she studied him intently. "Shame he's Charax, he's got such a pretty face."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RcKRditKO
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPE3dBChBM
Ethan started to struggle more, feeling slightly stronger now, but still getting nowhere. He felt her fingers digging into his jaw, hard enough to bruise. She laughed, letting go of him. He glared daggers at her in response, unwilling to show any fear.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1PqDPDvKs
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ606ULrqP30
She walked around him, examining him with a critical eye. "A male in great condition. Purebred. Young. Healthy. Minimal scaring. It's a shame."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfprnNxD26
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qzYpalW7r
The way she said it made him feel incredibly uncomfortable. Like she was treating him as less than human. His discomfort didn't escape her notice.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvfJMI8G5k
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDo1Fidtr0z
"Don't be upset, those are all compliments." She spoke with a false sweetness in her voice that came across as patronizing.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIqcN9fpAo
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6V2l5vas85
The man was preoccupied doing something with the equipment on the table. "He's not going to be in this condition for long."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vj4SFeBoa
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNabJQSGauL
"I know, it's such a waste." Josephine pouted dramatically.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUQFdtc2f5
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bAziayz12
"What are you talking about?" Ethan asked, worried by how the conversation was turning.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUCkCibClX
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIacnhYHsa
They both ignored him.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmHMOou7Zi
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4YhWW1Fj3
"Hey! What's going on?" Ethan raised his voice in frustration.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviizt1FOlQ
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJChYonlP1
The man turned around to glare at Ethan. "Get the message and shut up already or we'll gag you."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTrpke9Lur
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeSlqQGnCp
"We might as well just give him another dose. I don't feel like listening to any screaming right now," Josephine said from behind him.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJn9xS1GCb2
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsGggvfiHV
"We'll see," her partner answered flatly.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhjUoSBJbv
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1GkIJ7tLn
Ethan gulped, comprehending his situation. He knew the drugs were a greater threat the gag. If he wanted to get out of there, he'd need to be aware and awake. He reluctantly bit back his remaining questions. It didn't seem like they'd answer any of them anyways.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwPBYMe6R2
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgea1X9O1a
The man turned around with a swab in his hands. "Open your mouth."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNfW9kNdyu
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zwB8vKijZ
Ethan really didn't want to but he didn't see any other options. The man would just take it by force if he refused. He could only hope they didn't realize what they were taking. He reluctantly opened his mouth, letting the man taking a swab of his cheek.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1Qbc4GWub
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQFuB8AZe1
The man pulled out the swab and examined it. "That's enough for a sample."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgiviZbA2t
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEPCWj9TVH
"Maybe we should take some other samples while we have him out here, all set up," the blonde suggested.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3rG9fBbIy
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqr1NDgVnl
Ethan didn't like the sound of that and the way she put her hand on his thigh as she said it further unnerved him. He pressed himself back into the chair as he glared at her defiantly. Instead of getting angry, she smirked back at him and squeezed his thigh.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1jnOsFw6E
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhA84FeEfdl
"Knock it off. We've got other work to do right now," the man told her sternly.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4ZborbZMf
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVBm4LxUtF
"Terrence, you are never any fun. James would at least consider it," Josephine complained.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnGBMU2LIC
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2bk5vXNOt
Ethan added that information to the list of things he knew so far. There's at least three of them, he concluded.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJYbYIW5JX
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIMHlHTOo1
"I'm not James," Terrence retorted, handing her a thermometer.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0LAjyx8Be
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWtfVUpIIq
"I know that," Josephine said to him patronizingly before turning her attention to Ethan. "Open up," she said as she went to stick the thermometer in his mouth.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiw1lDOzJKN
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2u8Qk2AeE
Ethan opened his mouth slightly and held himself still despite wanting nothing more than to bash her head in.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwDgRQWfr9
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8v5VSXeke
Josephine slipped the device in. "No biting now."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcPKt97Vv6
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ki4r1xaSY
Ethan glared back at her, fuming, as he felt the hard metal object on his tongue. A few seconds later, Josephine pulled the thermometer out and placed it back on the table.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpOFSZTiZS
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdBG3M88Mk
Terrence picked up what looked like a whitish liquid in a bag off the table. He torn off an end and held it in front of Ethan's face. "Drink it," he ordered.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9ZhPiqKWE
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIp8KpMe4C
Ethan's eyes flickered between his captor and the liquid. "I'm good."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡII8WXl4HKn
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8xi7JNcju
Terrence sighed. "I know you aren't hungry, but you're going to be in heat for a while. No point in wearing yourself out early."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfS612tjN7y
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSFh8RO5Ls
"No, I don't want it," Ethan refused, eyeing the strange meal skeptically.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRDBxl8MyY
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlPL5Px6NJ
"Not an option," Terrence insisted but Ethan pressed his lips together defiantly anyways. The large man sighed again, clearly losing patience with his uncooperative prisoner.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKVt2r3vn4
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BlHt5uyhY
Josephine took a syringe off the table and offered it to her partner. "This should make him more compliant." Terrence quickly took the syringe and turned back to Ethan.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKjChdAJfH
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GC88WSfvn
"What's that?" Ethan asked worriedly as he saw the man approach. "Wait, don't—" Ethan cut himself off as the man ignored him and injected the mystery drug into the IV line. He fought a new wave of nausea off, closing his eyes again and tried his best to forget he had a needle in his arm.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9e9uRLp8NV
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yG5PqdpAb
Ethan heard a masculine voice near him. "Let's take a break."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKjAz1iv0G
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrKhGPlzQy
"Sure," a more feminine voice replied.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡss4iLXlcai
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Kyqszyli6
He opened his eyes to see the two captors leaving the room and heard the door close behind them, leaving him completely alone. Immediately, he took the chance to try and break out of his restraints. He fought hard to break his bonds but the leather cuffs binding his arms and legs to the metal chair were sturdy. He strained and thrashed but couldn't move more than a millimetre. After a few minutes, he settled back down into the chair, panting, tired, and unsuccessful. There was nothing left to do except wait and hope they would move him to a less secure area soon.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoE8P0ciz6I
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCmON45jAx
As he sat there, he felt a trickle of sweat run down his bare back. He took note of the moisture gathering on his skin and dampening his remaining clothing. He wasn't sure if it was due to the heat or his ineffective attempt to get out of the bindings. The level of arousal coming from the heat hadn't gotten any stronger, that was good news at least. Then a few minutes later, Ethan felt the drug kick in like a tsunami. He felt a familiar fog swelling up at the edges of his mind and he tried his best to stay lucid. Shortly after that, the two dealers reentered the room.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq01qkHm7lY
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygEprp4J0G
Josephine came around and studied him closely, examining his pupils. "It's working all right."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QBR3UvyQP
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafFUEiVcl3
"Let's try this again," Terrence said as he held the liquid up to his lips again.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MjEbb52Uz
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYkPz3sCdA
Ethan shook his head, mouth kept tightly closed. He knew they could inject him with whatever they wanted. There was no point in poisoning his food. He knew he was being stubborn but he had no interest in making anything easy for them now.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqaGm93qfS
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83Ys1GK36s
"Still?" The man let out a sigh brief of frustration then quickly punched him in the stomach, knocking the wind out of him. "Don't think we won't damage you if you cause us trouble. You're still worth a fortune broken."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlqof4efUq
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdwlDFpAmR
Ethan, hunched over in the chair, tried to catch his breath. It proved a more difficult task than he expected.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRL9aLPdxHm
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8govwKNv1
"Do fight, I do so enjoy breaking the ones that fight back," the blonde woman purred, watching from her seat on the table, clearly entertained.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBqeknQ241
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyr8joSoXIQ
"He's a bit too old for training. And in heat," Terrence retorted, still in a bad mood.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP59OmTh10V
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdC5vDRYCej
Josephine smiled again, making Ethan's skin crawl. "We never know until we try. And the heat makes it easier, not harder. It's such a great reward system."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqHG11adLP
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAyFzp9pAs
Ethan shuddered at the thought of what she was proposing.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozV6xxcSNL
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMruR7XW174
"Aw, he's blushing." The woman's tone sounded more suited to talking to a puppy than a person. "A virgin? We can fix that quickly."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mkVmHhESf
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHkFCzJz9M
"I'm not an animal," Ethan protested angrily. It was getting harder for him to keep focused, to stay angry at her. He figured it was an effect of whatever they'd injected him with, making it difficult to focus.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2Agv4jMAz
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHvuQgJT7W
The blond laughed with a biting cruel edge. She jumped down off the table and approached him leisurely. "Oh, but you are. That's what the Charax are. And right now you'll fuck anyone we put in front of you." She ran her fingers along his muscles, across his chest, down his arm. He flinched at her touch. "I think you'd do a good job too. I have high expectations for you."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OdiUxScwn
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyasZsj3wa
Terrence appeared to have little patience for Ethan or his partner. He passed the bag over to her. With a huff, the man gripped Ethan's hair and yanked his head back before forcing his mouth open.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybD3EQDRK8
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPz5IUoW3j
Ethan lacked the ability to put up any significant resistance now, the drug coursing through his veins. The blond quickly emptied the bag into his mouth and then the man forced his jaw shut. He gagged at the taste but his mouth was held tightly shut. The white liquid was disgusting. It somehow combined the texture of yogurt with the taste of chalk in the worst way possible.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxo5uhKZN6
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyVJhx8906
"Swallow," Terrence ordered.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OC8M19quN
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqONG2NWxC
Ethan refused to obey out of pure stubbornness.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57aiWl7012
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJ0uNC4g1Q
Josephine suddenly pinched his nose shut. Unable to breath, Ethan ended up swallowing the fluid and his captors let go of him. He was left there to catch his breath, unable to get the taste of the stuff out of his mouth.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aekt7GEXp
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyehxFX3aQ
"See, he just needs the proper motivation," Josephine said happily.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDqClO1Roc
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuM6z1o9DHe
Terrence ignored her, heading back over to the table.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡned6gmukTw
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA80nEvaNn3
Ethan glared at her. "It doesn't matter what you give me. I won't do it."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PoY2d0vr4
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ue2luxFv6
Josephine smirked dangerously as she stroked his shoulder. "You will. Don't be scared, you'd enjoy every minute of it."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXcLARc5qH
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2f3wcHZ9C
Ethan glared at her angrily. He tried to shake her hand off but she dug her nails into his shoulder.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJ2N1GX86N
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPxzzsFSLa
"Of course, you'd have lots of clients but I'm sure we could find you a suitable mate. That's what you call them, isn't it? Everyone has their favourites. Their weak spots." She dug her nails further, enough to draw start drawing blood.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEpoAGMJGY
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWx6wgrmiGo
Ethan gritted his teeth. "Go to hell." He kept staring daggers at her, as if he could drill a hole through her head with his eyes.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOOuNiYxr7
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrVpLlLTtS
Josephine raised an eyebrow at him as she pulled her hand away, studying him intently as if he were some kind of interesting specimen.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLShb1iZGOR
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0X5iWVOVC
Terrence shrugged, as if Ethan had proven his point for him. "See, too much trouble, might as well just process 'em and be done with it."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXSvyuPKTc
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbddThX3Qn
Ethan wasn't eager to find out what either the training or the processing were. He wasn't planning on stick around long enough to find out.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFh2XpL3Pcu
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwPJcz3men
"Where's the fun in that?" Josephine responded, still staring at Ethan.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakyBoEOeJp
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGTsObBY4W
"In spending your cut," Terrence stated dryly. He kept working away with something over on the table, blocked from Ethan's view.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMDvGUlNKv
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ghzgtf6r1
Josephine frowned. "Seems like a waste, we could get more. Given the excellent condition the body's in. Or go for auction."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhuNzGa26k
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4oof9Hu85
"The boss gave his orders," Terrence told her seriously.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHMeozrNgR
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvgN31k8Pi
Josephine joined him over at the table. "Orders can be changed."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6aMHyOW1X
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWSuCD8VjI
"You know he's probably already secured buyers," Terrence said dismissively.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EqkxSZcau
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfLDaSkMxn
"I know," Josephine said disappointingly. "I'm not saying we shouldn't offload him eventually."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmH9g5fHa9
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3SOKdjJsc
Ethan was having trouble following the conversation. He was trying to piece together what they were talking about but it was difficult, even just focusing on what they were saying took a lot of effort.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVvCGhDbpg
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zLdlkm2w8
"We need to deal with him before he goes crazy on us at least." Terrence was fiddling with the medical equipment. Ethan had stopped trying to figure out what the man was doing.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNumjOJx44A
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiWJoI1rzi
"Yes, yes, I know how the heat ones get. I'm aware of the time limit," Josephine replied nonchalantly.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMVw0cqB7Q
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTCScTs8fa
Ethan's muddled mind raced as he watched his two jailers standing by the table, their backs to him. What time limit? What are they talking about? I need to get out of here, he thought frantically. He subtly tested the bindings around his wrists and ankles pointlessly. He glanced around the room again, hoping for some idea of how to escape, but no ideas came to him.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDT3aI8WZW
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DLiyxpGlp
"You don't have any openings at the moment," Terrence reminded her. "I don't know know what you're expecting out of him."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmHZaqYNPp
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZpm2QRAbN
"Someone could always turn up. Or we could make a trade," Josephine suggested. "It's a shame to waste this state, all I'm saying." She gestured vaguely towards Ethan.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYW6F0mCqi7
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWhRPbC3SJ
"Good luck with that, I'm going to do my job. No use going the extra mile," Terrence responded, slightly annoyed.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjAwSCD8jl

The conversation kept going but Ethan only picked up bits and pieces now. His mind felt incredibly foggy and he ended up tuned out of the conversation entirely. Somewhere in his mind, he hoped they'd forgotten about him.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4jULwoD2E
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTJE69mvGN
"I'm talking to you," Terrence snapped his fingers in front of Ethan's face. Ethan blinked and found they'd both turned their attention back to him. "Can you hear me?"147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7263fikv9t
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVlAEau0vu
"Yeah?" Ethan answered uncertainly, confused about what was happening now.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavE7LHdjP4
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmSNHcw6tA
Terrence looked at the new sheet of paper in his hands. "How long have you been on Earth?"147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoz0nV2KMpS
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2Es6jkONh
"I was born here." Ethan blurted out before he could stop himself. He hadn't intended to answer that at all. He had to be careful, the drug in his system was messing with his head.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8Omg55nXP
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6Ht6E54KF
"How old are you?" Terrence asked.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUJGYlGHi6
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVhaY3Y0DM
Ethan didn't see any point in trying to lie about that, he didn't even try to stop the answer from coming out. "Twenty nine."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoqzKD0POb
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmBDFfWlig
"Late bloomer," Josephine interjected from her seat on top of the table.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAZYQftnsH
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGhx4YpL7Y
"How long have you been in heat?" Terrence asked the next question.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAh6ijZwLp
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlx5cbHynK
"A week," Ethan blurted out again.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzk6CsL11yg
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTg325cPVhw
Terrence's eyes lit up with new found interest. "Who's your heat partner?"147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSrkfXXkWg
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8vMuaGMrM
"Mate," Josephine corrected.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKUVWR9nX9
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6X2A45SAEs
"Whatever," he replied in annoyance. He focused in on Ethan again. "Who have you been having sex with this week?"147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83iRzPI5IB
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuX9KieGFA
Ethan knew they were looking for other Charax to catch but it didn't matter, he could answer the question honestly without endangering anyone. "No one." Josephine looked at him with a different curiosity now, he tried to ignore her behaviour and focus on the man in front of him.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BIOEXCnZQ
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMdUHVBe3V
Terrence shook his head in disbelief. "There's no way that's true."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9mnZlVOr7
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNh5jmL2VN
"It's the truth," Ethan insisted.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONmenCYn3G
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiECP39LdbR
Terrence eyed him suspiciously. "I don't believe you. I bet you didn't go two days without finding someone or attacking some random Terran."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lU80uGPwT
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuXuoIxbYr
"I didn't!" Ethan replied angrily, leaning forwards in his chair as far as the bindings would allow. He glared fiercely at the man in front of him. "And I don't care if you don't believe me."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVMzMrBlL3
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvwLXHKvet
"That's not even possible, is it?" His interrogator glanced at Josephine, who simply shrugged in response. "We'll come back to that," he muttered, looking back at the piece of paper.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoR6CrfgDX
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03ibFT270T
Ethan settled back down into the chair, feeling somewhat satisfied.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZpA2ism5j
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCjsyThiem
Terrence flipped the paper over. "Charax technology. What do you know?"147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1niPnmj3o
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzy13B51GgI
Ethan realized they were truly interrogating him now. He almost blurted out something he shouldn't have. There's no way they could know who he was, who his family was. His best option would be to play dumb, if he even could in this condition.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjCLuNUIqN
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQoE2E9wzI
"I– What– That's what this is about?" Ethan struggled, trying to avoid having to lie.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslJDPZHRVL
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeBBIQIV7k
"He's too young to know anything about the tech," Josephine commented from her perch.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvC4f80NKU
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCpICxEgrn
"We've always got to check," Terrence muttered irritably, glancing back at the page. "Where are there more Charax?"147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQV0Y6Mctq
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBhMtRUFv5
"I don't know," Ethan answered honestly. He was rather relieved he didn't know any other Charax's identity at the moment. They could do whatever they wanted to him, but he could never put another one of his people in harms way.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpnvnExpXa
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzGLJOFqDS
"I don't believe you," Terrence said dryly.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TmRhLVqj3
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NqzWww9va
"It's the truth," Ethan stated flatly.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMbSg6FxBj
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Am6oTBmL2
"You've been here your whole life. You've got to know someone. Give me a name," Terrence insisted.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOs7mLjROL
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUphH8m3gey
Terrence kept pressing him, convinced Ethan was lying. As the man interrogated him, Ethan felt like his whole body was spinning. He felt like he'd fall over at any moment, despite being strapped into a chair that he couldn't escape from if he tried. He became more and more frustrated with his captor, who refused to accept his answer, until he couldn't bottle in the frustration any longer.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJizi0aydBQ
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡen5RMrnFHM
"I can't!" Ethan shouted at them, at his wit's end. Terrence didn't seem at all convinced by his little outburst. Ethan felt overly exhausted by the single act and he slumped in the chair.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKM7EC4gtUi
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPDxl2FQ7r
Josephine had lost interest in him a while ago, appearing content to let her partner run the interrogation so far, but now she spoke up. "I don't think you're going to get an answer out of him right now."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kSX5bDzAc
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMidp3kutB
"He must know at least one," Terrence insisted still.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Hh1hW6g3v
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡff5uSc96DR
"It's not a truth serum," Josephine argued.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhnHKyDkBW
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTclP3pru9y
It feels like it is, Ethan thought.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tGB6n0Akh
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNSBK8Lktm
"You'll have to try again later. He's almost gone." Josephine sounded disinterested now.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSv1remuBEW
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3PpslGg6Y
Terrence nodded in agreement. "We're done here." He put the paper down on the table then came over to Ethan, starting to loosen the bindings on his ankles. Ethan resisted the urge to kick the man in the face, opting to wait until he was completely free to make his move. Ethan tried to watch attentively as Terrence undid the restraints binding him to the chair.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlq3wCabtEt
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThpshsQsH2
As soon as Ethan was free, he tried to throw a punch at the big man. His captor didn't even try to stop him, simply watching as he landed awkwardly on the hard concrete floor. He went to get up and fell back to the ground quickly before even managing to attempt a second swing.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0R95pQXP9c
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dacGC6Srk
Ethan tried to stand up again. He quickly found out that he couldn't even stand on his own, let alone fight back. Whatever they'd given him had made his limbs weak. Josephine came over and grabbed one of his arms.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0bgK2i3wU
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHG5CFbNi8S
"Don't touch me," Ethan grunted, all the protest he could manage in this state.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhXwVMUWnW
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4QwkIlNSd
The blond looked at him curiously. She put her fingers on his neck to take his pulse. He tried to push her away weakly, unsuccessfully. "Hmmm... maybe you are right about going straight into processing."147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcWWm67JOt
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT53CnkmDxl
"Told you. I've done this enough times that I know which ones are worth the trouble and which aren't," Terrence said as he grabbed Ethan's other arm.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2v3ODJzSPf
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWBsg97gEV
The two of them dragged Ethan to his feet, he was very aware of how his captors were almost entirely supporting his weight. They dragged him through the door into another room with three doors and some furniture. His struggles were so weak that his captors didn't even appear to notice them.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvfl1qbRH3
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tUza71L0m
His vision was blurry but he tried his best to remember the layout of the room as they dragged him through the door to their left, which opened up to a staircase leading downwards.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEojjtEWRsx
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsX0OncEEmD
He could barely keep his eyes open as they brought him down into the cold basement, he could see the edges of his vision going dark. He suddenly felt himself be dropped lazily on to something unexpectedly soft. Then heard a click as he felt something cold and hard around his ankle.147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuY7ZCgvXL
147Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oidDPBAx0
He couldn't open his eyes to see where he was. He couldn't make out what the voices where saying, only vaguely aware they were becoming fainter. The darkness was all that remained.8964 copyright protection143ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NAWvq9KWl 維尼
