Ashton

When I opened my eyes I could only see darkness which makes me closed my eyes again, the darkness is making my headache worse. I gently massage my hair in hopes that the headache I'm feeling right now will subside.

"Fuck! Where am I? Where's Zie?" I whispered to myself, my mind was still so confused that I didn't know how I got to this place. Am I already in the penthouse? This doesn't feel like I'm in the penthouse.

I slowly opened my eyes again, my brows furrowed when I still couldn't see anything except the darkness that is slowly blinding me. As I was trying to figure out where I was, I suddenly heard a loud sound, but I don't have any idea where the sound is coming or what was that for.

"Where is Zie?" I asked myself confused and got out of bed when I heard the loud again followed by a weak temblor.

What the fuck? What is that? It only made my headache even worse, I rolled my eyes and looked around the room. I am now half convinced that I wasn't in the penthouse, I wasn't in Zie's bedroom.

Where the fuck am I?

My forehead furrowed when I realized I was not really in Zie's room. I can't even remember that we checked into a hotel last night.

"Zie?" I tried to call Zie, I thought he was just inside the bathroom, but I called him several times and didn't get an answer, no one came out of the bathroom. That's when I felt a little nervous. I try to remember what happened to me last night but my head hurts even more.

What's happening?

I tried my best to find the bathroom, it took me almost a minute or two to get a touch of the bathroom doorknob. When I open the door and turned on the switch, the bathroom was empty, with no signs of someone taking a bath or anything that will give me a hint that I am with Zie. I heaved a deep sigh when fears slowly came creeping into my body.

"There's no need to panic Ash, Zie probably just went outside to buy you foods or something, he'll come back to you in a minute or two," I whisper to myself to ease the fears I'm feeling right now.

I walked towards the door and turned the knob open but my great surprise the door won't open.

"What the fuck?" I cuss confused as to what was happening, how can it be locked if I'm inside? Why can't I open the door?

The fears that I'm trying to suppress a while ago slowly came back.

"Zie?" I called and knocked softly on the door in case someone heard me outside. I'm starting to feel nervous.

"Is there anyone outside?" I asked again and slammed the door. When I still did not hear any footsteps outside, the nervous I was feeling turned to anxiety.

"Z-Zie? This is not a good joke, just open this door, please." I said with an exasperated voice, to my great annoyance I kicked the door hard.

"Fucking hell." I cuss in gritted teeth and gently rubbed the foot I used to kick the door, the door is so hard but if you look at it you will think it is just made of plastic. What a deceitful piece of shit.

Fuck! It looks like I got a bruised on my foot! I bet it was burning red right now.

"Is there anyone outside? Please open the door, please." I shouted even though I was not sure if anyone would hear me. I slammed the door again, I repeatedly slammed the door when suddenly I feel the floor shaking.

Shit! Is there an earthquake? Or my head is tricking me because of the headache I'm feeling right now?

I prop my hands on the door when I felt the ground is still shaking, after a while the shaking subsided. I was freaking nervous because I don't know what will I do if the earthquake gets worse and I'm stuck here since this fucking door mysteriously won't open.

"Fuckers! Is there anyone outside? I was locked inside, please open the goddamn door." I shouted again until my voice gets hoarse due to shouting incessantly, but still, no one opens the door. I'm just wasting my voice and to make things more worst, I'm a little dizzy.

I gently tweak my hair when I felt a sharp pain in my head. Shit! I think I drank too much last night. I sat on the floor feeling dejected.

I did not know how many minutes I had been sitting on the floor when I heard footsteps that seemed to be approaching the room where I was. I quickly stood up and slammed the door so that whoever is outside would know that someone was stuck here, "open the door please, whoever is outside, please open the door,' I shouted while still hitting the door will all my energy.

I want to get out of this dark room already.

I can hear the footsteps now until it suddenly stopped, I quickly backed away when I saw the doorknob slowly move. I breathed a sigh of relief when the door finally opened but my nervousness immediately arise when I saw a man smirking at me open the door, I swallowed my saliva when I saw a gun inserted in his waistband.

I took a deep breath and acted I was not afraid of this bulky man in front of me now. My mind is confused but this is not the right time to figure out who this man is, I just want to get out of this room and be with Zie on the penthouse.

"T-Thanks for opening the door, it looks like it was locked, I don't know how but I can't open the door. I think my b-boyfriend accidentally locked the door." I said and fakely smiled at the man even though I wanted to run out of this room already.

The man just raised an eyebrow at me. Okay! I'm nervous now.

"What are you talking about? You are alone here and you're not with your boyfriend." The man spoke, the smirk is still visible on his lips, it seems like he is enjoying watching me getting confused with everything that is happening right now.

"N-No, I have a boyfriend, maybe he just went outside to buy me foods," I said shaking my head.

How the fuck did he know if I have a boyfriend or not? I remember Zie and the last time I checked we're still together last night, we didn't break up. It would be hilarious being in a relationship and broke up on the same day.

"That might be the effect of drugs on you, follow me the boss wants to see you. He's been waiting for hours to finally meet you." The man replied in a very serious voice. I raised my brows at him.

Okay! Things are getting weirder now. Am I in a movie? What is this man talking about?

"W-What? Are you kidding?" I asked and laughed weakly but I immediately stopped laughing when I saw his face darkened. I was engulfed in nervousness for the hundredth time.

"Does it look like I'm kidding? Did you hear me laugh, kid? Follow me if you don't want me to shoot your head." The bulky man shouted in anger and took the gun that was tucked into his waistband.

I nearly fainted when he pointed the gun at me. My eyes widen while the man was enjoying this scene for sure. Thankfully, when he saw my frightened face he slowly puts the gun back to his waistband and smiles foolishly at me.

The man started walking but before he could finally get out of the room he glanced at me for the last time and motioned me to follow him. I could do nothing but follow him, I don't care if he's just trying to scare me with his gun or what, one thing is for sure, I don't want to die.

"Where are we going?" I asked almost a whisper, not trying to annoy him but we've been walking for a minute now.

"Stop asking so many questions, just follow me." The man replied with an annoyed face, I couldn't help but look at him a furrowed brows. It was just one question, I didn't ask him so many questions. What a dumbass.

The man walked faster making me also walked briskly. I can't help but wonder where the hell I am now. I can't figure out if I'm inside a hotel or not.

After a few minutes of following this bulky man in silence, finally, we entered what looked like a dining area. For an unknown reason, I felt uneasy. I had no idea what was going on or how I got into this situation.

Fucking hell! If this is just a dream, please wake me up already, this is not a good dream.

"He's already awake, boss." The bulky man said and walked out on the dining area, I was just standing there like a fool not knowing what to do.

"Have a seat, babe." Said a man sitting in front of me while drinking a coffee or tea, I don't know. How the fuck would I know what he's drinking?

The man was wearing a black tuxedo, his face was gentle but the smile he threw at me was terrifying. Just seeing his sinister smile makes me want to puke in nervousness.

"W-Where am I? Why am I here?" I boldly asked the man in front of me. His smile widened as he gently placed the cup he was holding on the table.

"You don't remember what happened to you last night, don't you?" The man asked sarcastically, I stared intently at the man frowning. What did he mean by that? What happened last night?

All I remember are the happy moments that I and Zie had shared last night, especially his confession of his love for me. I couldn’t help but smile as I remembered every moment that happened to me and Zie last night.

"A-Are you Zie's friend? Where is he?" I asked but the man just smiled at me, still not answering all the questions I throw at him.

"Looks like you don't remember what happened to you last night, well I can't blame you, you're so drunk last night. Anyway, your previous owner sold you, I'm your new owner now." The man responded like it wasn't a big deal like he is just talking about a toy being sold.

Every word he uttered exploded in front of me. I swallowed my saliva in extreme nervousness. I closed my eyes when I felt a headache.

"You've been auctioned last night, I bought you for a hundred million dollars." The man spoke again. I froze hearing what he said, all the things that happened last night slowly flashback to my mind.

I looked at the man in disbelief.

"N-No, this is just a dream, this is just a fucking dream. Zie will never do that to me." I said to myself and slapped cheeks over and over again.

"Shit!" I cuss as my eyes widen in realization, I felt the pain on my cheeks, this is not a fucking dream, this is happening to me now.

"Don't fret, babe. I'll take care of you, that is if you'll promise to be a good boy." The man said. I shook my head violently.

No! This is not happening to me.

Everything that happened to me last night came back to my mind like a nightmare, I just fell to the floor and could not stop myself from crying in extreme frustration.

"He fucking sold me," I whispered to myself dejectedly, pain creeping into my heart.
