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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcUl1PjASK
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJppMJUx0nP
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFEMlE69RN
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF80cSi92fI
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8usWcAGH7g
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EtRADLcyz
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lNju5k0j4
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EO60LCqkU
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuW7NzfIqs
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmxVM8gaAW
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUmmjbmXLi
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCzp6chyGh
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjgssZ7n80
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeG60OZZ3wl
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYodgeydtMY
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdb0xPMaKj8
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RyjGNvm89
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfzc7SHI1h
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3KFlGTzfQ
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnBcEamFXi
"What are you doing?" Ethan mumbled, still dazed and more than a little confused.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOj6F5ixh0c
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5hpbIAGTB
"Look who's awake." The blonde woman smiled at him in a way that sent shivers down his spine.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTTakpnpzn
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTN6uH7R8R7
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqM0WHNeo8
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLSny2tOHR
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTzEMNUUKU
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVZJkAVxuR
"Josephine, get over here." Ethan heard from the man behind him. "Hold him still."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRb2vjzxX9Z
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVIMhu3W4K
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZX1xLZsQj
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡij55CCb1OA
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14hIFuojeB
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufqyPSjEiS
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkt8KADG5mF
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjJmAFjTsr
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoBISQ8wBk
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTS43AJtXlO
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmOyluCPXO
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfY72OoqqLJ
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpMrnG0kja
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWouy0MErV
Her eyes darted upwards to the man cutting his hair. "Done?"110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifUXGdQnGj
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLV8RXfBFW
"I got enough," the other one replied as he walked over the to table.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLBUin8tnh
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXZ56SJcF9
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."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGUeAvCVDI
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGXFCtIAEv
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQexcOb65Y
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63ntFnEtvd
She walked around him, examining him with a critical eye. "A male in great condition. Purebred. Young. Healthy. Minimal scaring. It's a shame."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7wnv9wni1
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKH7vqp5VJ
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbgXOmnHRn
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBFY5WFDJC
"Don't be upset, those are all compliments." She spoke with a false sweetness in her voice that came across as patronizing.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Qp2O5pU0W
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBm8WiRB8Xh
The man was preoccupied doing something with the equipment on the table. "He's not going to be in this condition for long."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHosmxsBJyW
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnw61fA0WDg
"I know, it's such a waste." Josephine pouted dramatically.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOSirfth1B
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRA9im6NAug
"What are you talking about?" Ethan asked, worried by how the conversation was turning.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KxFAFdXAr
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZueLF2njtn
They both ignored him.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6p2qMlCHBD
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGUK8J6odh
"Hey! What's going on?" Ethan raised his voice in frustration.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebEvLkvsch
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2O0Z0do7n0
The man turned around to glare at Ethan. "Get the message and shut up already or we'll gag you."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIUh6g5Srg
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ltSlPWwNC
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMC4WMMdf1X
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFODBa9x5Ep
"We'll see," her partner answered flatly.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRdaKqWYDo
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymW3Uwa9EB
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsq3WcgkOum
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ExK6dYRpX
The man turned around with a swab in his hands. "Open your mouth."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeb8Bcf0MHC
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhvCTcPlsG
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WjT8mlUM7
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnJxXhGHgB
The man pulled out the swab and examined it. "That's enough for a sample."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRell68oGmq
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4R8MlDRHSK
"Maybe we should take some other samples while we have him out here, all set up," the blonde suggested.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0rASycWwl
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOhcm9NiQG
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50VaTCNU7o
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRZRJsGkXE
"Knock it off. We've got other work to do right now," the man told her sternly.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBzIKz3XeD
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVV6H81i6CC
"Terrence, you are never any fun. James would at least consider it," Josephine complained.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnux6R3jb19
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVkad8epkB
Ethan added that information to the list of things he knew so far. There's at least three of them, he concluded.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXfYhJVBWM
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLymTbKw5d
"I'm not James," Terrence retorted, handing her a thermometer.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByevTD7psj
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15rRqSC5Zn
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCbicWE0sP
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoazkNaFCA
Ethan opened his mouth slightly and held himself still despite wanting nothing more than to bash her head in.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSrU7ez6RO
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHVthtD6CT
Josephine slipped the device in. "No biting now."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMm4X6EUXft
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsc6p3aXrh
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqN6cmkJHxF
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucqNKL0dCq
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxqqAZS5MB
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WIGM46i1k
Ethan's eyes flickered between his captor and the liquid. "I'm good."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7QkGeKPMp
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZChhRIJao
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."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFpfrkyZ1B
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQuvToO3OM
"No, I don't want it," Ethan refused, eyeing the strange meal skeptically.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2j64Zvta7T
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7bgwd4ggw
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaJcfDOjBq
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrQXqlhoes
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpF14pXvm1K
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBGtI78iFh
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvgymCAg3a
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNodjz444uf
Ethan heard a masculine voice near him. "Let's take a break."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sVoRCqX2p
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCo0l9X9kgQ
"Sure," a more feminine voice replied.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrLDGOaxEv
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDrKClDOTt
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQNEgOdURz
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88UxMs4bKU
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIskuLuqri
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenIr0o2FPe
Josephine came around and studied him closely, examining his pupils. "It's working all right."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9D9zqG4ZxJ
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUWgGsrLRH
"Let's try this again," Terrence said as he held the liquid up to his lips again.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJb4H52OD1N
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehmvmDNAeE
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGC1Dj1S3Mw
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOfvWpcIz8
"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."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLS8Iz5MQLi
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67Ncn6rElW
Ethan, hunched over in the chair, tried to catch his breath. It proved a more difficult task than he expected.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1R5dyk1j0D
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYSAWgMWaV
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkDBMJP2pW
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75D63vG5OR
"He's a bit too old for training. And in heat," Terrence retorted, still in a bad mood.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sKkgCWu6S
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6E02F7w72W
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."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bjf8KMhpd
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcAk80sF3w
Ethan shuddered at the thought of what she was proposing.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDyK8ch8ED
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbUU8AcKzO
"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."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpMfbymhd5
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9RLkdsu7C
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kBdG0yOnS
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxr8ce6jKmb
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."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuw3uc9xngu
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkFlVGgWvH
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeN3dg8kJPt
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7JtLRZJws
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rs30Bsd5W
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQ0JdxCps5
"Swallow," Terrence ordered.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSElYWNueQ
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ224nSG7zzR
Ethan refused to obey out of pure stubbornness.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLimMVX0M3
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCijHDSTkUr
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0gU6z4jWa
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrrxtXVX32
"See, he just needs the proper motivation," Josephine said happily.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGOWTXqH4n
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIpj5GjwWd
Terrence ignored her, heading back over to the table.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cs810o1TQ
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2Qd8rn7ki
Ethan glared at her. "It doesn't matter what you give me. I won't do it."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkldxZybA4G
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sckbKEtoH
Josephine smirked dangerously as she stroked his shoulder. "You will. Don't be scared, you'd enjoy every minute of it."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYrL1OGtOR
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uVQnctNkR
Ethan glared at her angrily. He tried to shake her hand off but she dug her nails into his shoulder.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTCqfV4bgI
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrpAlk2li8
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIA5zE1D4Sf
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAa9rVduEF
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlJ60DVlL1
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspWMh8poYs
Josephine raised an eyebrow at him as she pulled her hand away, studying him intently as if he were some kind of interesting specimen.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpbNLXFBLC
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXOYYwwedm
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."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrepncJO0n
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37DQ4TOnwv
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pSPlU21jJ
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2ms2WUTOX
"Where's the fun in that?" Josephine responded, still staring at Ethan.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczvb5lL2zg
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavoi4sSWE4
"In spending your cut," Terrence stated dryly. He kept working away with something over on the table, blocked from Ethan's view.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPApCVOFyp
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfu6nPRMxr
Josephine frowned. "Seems like a waste, we could get more. Given the excellent condition the body's in. Or go for auction."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPv5EH0Su0
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mkuQ1FSrd
"The boss gave his orders," Terrence told her seriously.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9q93fgxVL
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsAfUq1SQP
Josephine joined him over at the table. "Orders can be changed."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZIAY8nN0a
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqJ9nZL8jY
"You know he's probably already secured buyers," Terrence said dismissively.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4igTdkhTOS
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7D6dp9MZ10
"I know," Josephine said disappointingly. "I'm not saying we shouldn't offload him eventually."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlop6zKwJ1
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0IwlmGWIN
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakKdXSMeBN
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKTKHKd1Pa
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlChUkbd5NG
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4zINAu1sk
"Yes, yes, I know how the heat ones get. I'm aware of the time limit," Josephine replied nonchalantly.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWA1jRI1ppc
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewmRLLZolj
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5yC4uMItf
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuQIE4LGiM
"You don't have any openings at the moment," Terrence reminded her. "I don't know know what you're expecting out of him."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXVV2JHbU0
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMOWtBXnDm
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImzPGTyw0f
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETcEY0LXwn
"Good luck with that, I'm going to do my job. No use going the extra mile," Terrence responded, slightly annoyed.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85u1JA0G3x

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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzz7yL33UP
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMgPtfpLF7
"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?"110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOCY2krxc8
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyv96Ugg89
"Yeah?" Ethan answered uncertainly, confused about what was happening now.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbE7BpixEs
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJ9uwyH0d3
Terrence looked at the new sheet of paper in his hands. "How long have you been on Earth?"110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqJXC7uTEE
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6V7ONezVO
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pEKWE8utV
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHvLeJI6vQ
"How old are you?" Terrence asked.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFbcZlSP0E
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AGHaw0xzI
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."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6S7rgE3e6
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DuOPK73v5
"Late bloomer," Josephine interjected from her seat on top of the table.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YsZLROeiz
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocEuyncVoC
"How long have you been in heat?" Terrence asked the next question.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zuNQHqx3j
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaWpZ8dwJC
"A week," Ethan blurted out again.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03CLxOBqlk
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFP5zyYrz2r
Terrence's eyes lit up with new found interest. "Who's your heat partner?"110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡta3XSLIjFT
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHh1B8EO4D9
"Mate," Josephine corrected.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡID7MYHletO
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoa72KSPeu
"Whatever," he replied in annoyance. He focused in on Ethan again. "Who have you been having sex with this week?"110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YflHbOXHH
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMY9SajsoYy
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ChVgktRvo
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPJUw7r9pI
Terrence shook his head in disbelief. "There's no way that's true."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDDRhVKulV
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1eU6ahT0S
"It's the truth," Ethan insisted.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDM92fWzdFR
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3ZGi2oiRS
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."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJCOm2eOne
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIUZJ75MD9
"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."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ViSk3B6X9
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBHOnRjVQw
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhQmVgqTm2
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2BnER1LY1
Ethan settled back down into the chair, feeling somewhat satisfied.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydQhyLFqEc
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0pf841epr
Terrence flipped the paper over. "Charax technology. What do you know?"110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8BmnvQRgf
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWuNdPo00G
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnb561Kx9tm
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5zxbbBJa2
"I– What– That's what this is about?" Ethan struggled, trying to avoid having to lie.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2DA5AOaf4
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEC3QvhhTD2
"He's too young to know anything about the tech," Josephine commented from her perch.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCUAskafwH
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsZqtlGnY5
"We've always got to check," Terrence muttered irritably, glancing back at the page. "Where are there more Charax?"110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5q6EwLpxC4
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2kymq8RXP
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDrDdcEqpy
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOb8S08PvJ0
"I don't believe you," Terrence said dryly.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo42HcJ4Ay9
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCA8vX40Ri2
"It's the truth," Ethan stated flatly.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmvVeYn6E5
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPd1a6HMRm
"You've been here your whole life. You've got to know someone. Give me a name," Terrence insisted.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZD8ZLq48F
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2ITH4MT5u
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnf4LvJgBpe
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBw2neFOo9P
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3EKbeeCBJ
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLPZzs6RLT
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."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5KNsrCv4e
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6c9AXlVSj
"He must know at least one," Terrence insisted still.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUFvpMlPE6
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvVSWNVSjA
"It's not a truth serum," Josephine argued.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BqJJjlNdI
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7JQltfU8r
It feels like it is, Ethan thought.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjxq0ClN5v
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04M3a0jLgO
"You'll have to try again later. He's almost gone." Josephine sounded disinterested now.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn39csz0w8e
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡod2DCPSRuv
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN362pzQX4Z
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoirDsnfVOR
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaN9RJn7o5
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIZhSLh3HO
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLKppfeHUz
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nMMY04pM9
"Don't touch me," Ethan grunted, all the protest he could manage in this state.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrj9mj8sXF
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQtwdFTgnZ
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."110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoAC7VWbNj
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOswpagr2I
"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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr14QVf2B4x
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsC5Yg7nTu
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpicCsee15o
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjcpR9p2EF
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YqpSEpHOp
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoFrJXXouV
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.110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVEgV6bgpr
110Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG49jLU7m6a
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 protection106ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0O1jY4zGtM 維尼
