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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RNZBEXYsl
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyacdKCvS0
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoejChLbqA
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLSUB8jKT3
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡml5cCLdnwY
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLcCDTXhng
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQNS9nRMbD
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcqjsSTfzV
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PUHFI5Hkc
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMINyEHpkRd
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktapjrH2OU
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrMUyhkpKg
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcsnJ4KaFJ
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVnOhwUuZI
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6ZEsz7akC
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQc9hcaggml
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYbkiSHgh3
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpUXw6D42j
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtDXdpkpTk
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppTOi46B8h
"What are you doing?" Ethan mumbled, still dazed and more than a little confused.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6aw5uYPHg
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJS3GKWrOCH
"Look who's awake." The blonde woman smiled at him in a way that sent shivers down his spine.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMwj1OQfwC
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfK7UmTr6F
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIeXv0nKTl
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvYnba05E3
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuKOQlikhT
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08q7cJMyvO
"Josephine, get over here." Ethan heard from the man behind him. "Hold him still."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxl07JpEBx
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjt8l6g1mC
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvIMnhsTRv
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPoMgs1DkH
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30049wd0th
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU26c9lTXQx
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZTbujDaLy
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2SjFxufhh
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8JeIat0HG
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36uz7Gxu97
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKt03kUksQ
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnBeln8CzA
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIKp4bXfS4
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvvLG8SlTN
Her eyes darted upwards to the man cutting his hair. "Done?"151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVfwsAsFMo
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJt2E4tfVl
"I got enough," the other one replied as he walked over the to table.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVbigAB6q7
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLtViTWY2x
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."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmQKEZwFxI
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FeJIgULtp
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5A3VkL5s1
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGhPrr5nLE
She walked around him, examining him with a critical eye. "A male in great condition. Purebred. Young. Healthy. Minimal scaring. It's a shame."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47YHF3ZA9H
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzAKTgEHSY
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4owVVGy22
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfzUh4Txpr
"Don't be upset, those are all compliments." She spoke with a false sweetness in her voice that came across as patronizing.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZEzNwXhMJ
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9Ap1E3FWm
The man was preoccupied doing something with the equipment on the table. "He's not going to be in this condition for long."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubUXZjZJl5
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFWst6Hr8t
"I know, it's such a waste." Josephine pouted dramatically.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrR1XNofe6
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHijHPJlA5
"What are you talking about?" Ethan asked, worried by how the conversation was turning.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMK82urm5g
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPTLQU1u4Z
They both ignored him.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MwlUuGzQB
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTz0f7nCAx
"Hey! What's going on?" Ethan raised his voice in frustration.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ055inRRLO
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6PFg5YVu2
The man turned around to glare at Ethan. "Get the message and shut up already or we'll gag you."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQKCPLxFQy
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHUnM5Exj0
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1E4ZbJldXT
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaOflgCXr3
"We'll see," her partner answered flatly.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpIp40l7VJ
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7An0Kr2xBs
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OtURJdkvI
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTB89Gnlkv
The man turned around with a swab in his hands. "Open your mouth."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfGBjTgsv1
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ec2rMsjw4
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI63lrhfXQE
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIDmQHqRFG
The man pulled out the swab and examined it. "That's enough for a sample."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa8KwbSZnh
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxUaUIVhRQ
"Maybe we should take some other samples while we have him out here, all set up," the blonde suggested.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcBTfAWtxK
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbtuRm69dr
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlKYIyKqS1
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPjW3QzDBo
"Knock it off. We've got other work to do right now," the man told her sternly.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEYHmy3I2s
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbYlj6kQli
"Terrence, you are never any fun. James would at least consider it," Josephine complained.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIABOEeYvv6
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGrpBCfTeW
Ethan added that information to the list of things he knew so far. There's at least three of them, he concluded.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklnFzaHzQM
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynHLIrFJHG
"I'm not James," Terrence retorted, handing her a thermometer.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9ZXElbWSo
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAaVakp7et
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vFmV3ZQQd
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrNpZ7WFro
Ethan opened his mouth slightly and held himself still despite wanting nothing more than to bash her head in.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvDF7nEWj3
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DOSKM7xVe
Josephine slipped the device in. "No biting now."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6XmgzF5sZ
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21oftBkO74
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwECgXBOJb
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkI0zjjJv5l
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCd5iiaSg1s
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkNAxMLH2Q
Ethan's eyes flickered between his captor and the liquid. "I'm good."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xhezO3rrq
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGnMwz13GQ
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."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhL38FAJxWN
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZNhCgZhpi
"No, I don't want it," Ethan refused, eyeing the strange meal skeptically.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcbCootBXi
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5U3rZPiotE
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFNdqWnPqI
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGNElyzOk2
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJVR57rUR2
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePISxsqRZp
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknp44fLmjy
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8CpToWLOB
Ethan heard a masculine voice near him. "Let's take a break."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLeCDJ8VxM
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARcuNdtUhn
"Sure," a more feminine voice replied.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljmcSPmUgo
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbjBSonMI8
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkU8SGedSA
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONXq38Pt0r
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpaShdiGZ1
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrBKndtvyF
Josephine came around and studied him closely, examining his pupils. "It's working all right."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcvssY4mA3
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD44hYaTQTT
"Let's try this again," Terrence said as he held the liquid up to his lips again.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBJh2iuSb2
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aTyMY7sah
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡww2flGTUCg
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCNdBS1zwk
"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."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDz82Ri56N
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5J0fKkGZ4
Ethan, hunched over in the chair, tried to catch his breath. It proved a more difficult task than he expected.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ytTBVrLlY
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKXe9Fp98R
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGp0Gx1MHZ
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3lEnqLnSo
"He's a bit too old for training. And in heat," Terrence retorted, still in a bad mood.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cKrjq6DmW
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAm8RRjrdIV
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."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVw5JJAKZY
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7JWEyc44h
Ethan shuddered at the thought of what she was proposing.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggPidTW46P
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU92sSEIRD0
"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."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHyDlDaqFu
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkIB34OnXb
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1UcsKEW8E
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqVsc6i4dK
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."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1gdKpT2mi
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcTrWvKIrm
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyE3NpXUoG
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRr6NFhsOg
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoNIvj0s3Z
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXAM3yJkfv
"Swallow," Terrence ordered.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRivBt4lW33
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGV8iBawsLG
Ethan refused to obey out of pure stubbornness.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqzqkH4Nzj
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4b88ElMEeR
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOLP9R0k5x
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3r373OfNpe
"See, he just needs the proper motivation," Josephine said happily.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOh6C1YduG
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHmEKhxjX7
Terrence ignored her, heading back over to the table.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYcGJKmkpT
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYR0cw36gnX
Ethan glared at her. "It doesn't matter what you give me. I won't do it."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWq4BSoHFYw
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuM1qRyPpcO
Josephine smirked dangerously as she stroked his shoulder. "You will. Don't be scared, you'd enjoy every minute of it."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTMYx8NH8E
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYfNFr3XtT
Ethan glared at her angrily. He tried to shake her hand off but she dug her nails into his shoulder.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaXD4bZDrP
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDT1gaPFojD
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7GogA4XJv
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKpl7H9ZhZ
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ31Jbg8XGQ
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUpugaeyNT
Josephine raised an eyebrow at him as she pulled her hand away, studying him intently as if he were some kind of interesting specimen.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xUn2zybsd
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs65vybW2dr
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."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqsDtjgcyW
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqOEbOrzlC
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaTNCusVwy
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRZSxNQxXS
"Where's the fun in that?" Josephine responded, still staring at Ethan.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL77aCo2QnF
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKKkGBWqBJ
"In spending your cut," Terrence stated dryly. He kept working away with something over on the table, blocked from Ethan's view.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ8m48kqxT
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdI5Wc7VyF
Josephine frowned. "Seems like a waste, we could get more. Given the excellent condition the body's in. Or go for auction."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8IgCtNAAB
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3oO0YxSD4
"The boss gave his orders," Terrence told her seriously.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdhuGt7SEn
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sczvFG09y
Josephine joined him over at the table. "Orders can be changed."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHhAFBoscd
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4Stv5rUrE
"You know he's probably already secured buyers," Terrence said dismissively.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRjFZqkfsv
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6h2yGgngQ9
"I know," Josephine said disappointingly. "I'm not saying we shouldn't offload him eventually."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVo8Dm1axz
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMyvhQrxAW
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPRq91iRDq
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpIdo6o7i1
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WiNUGRUPP
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5Gof72BfX
"Yes, yes, I know how the heat ones get. I'm aware of the time limit," Josephine replied nonchalantly.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcqdurlf4F
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCsbw4A3wz
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYOVtIGS3F
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2esKCZzh2w
"You don't have any openings at the moment," Terrence reminded her. "I don't know know what you're expecting out of him."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PJt4kOWyD
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmFdkdlhOJ
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWz3vD4x5gF
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFtXuQ8Mlk
"Good luck with that, I'm going to do my job. No use going the extra mile," Terrence responded, slightly annoyed.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLGbjGJl3r

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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDsdqVMPFe
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rLhsYdK8h
"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?"151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbysCxZE2Up
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDfBcqy99Y
"Yeah?" Ethan answered uncertainly, confused about what was happening now.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7jCKgNwTN
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWI48dBcCfT
Terrence looked at the new sheet of paper in his hands. "How long have you been on Earth?"151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPseABwn3b2
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuW3rEIAziI
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqs0Gh8fxD3
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2e90XO76pw
"How old are you?" Terrence asked.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoi25HwYYb
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3F1qR0B001
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."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8iAjuVfdN
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZcAJzVPyw
"Late bloomer," Josephine interjected from her seat on top of the table.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjJlAU9DLT
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xCysmXpph
"How long have you been in heat?" Terrence asked the next question.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMMSAaM4Ex
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFs4qqi4TY
"A week," Ethan blurted out again.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1P3xijR3fN
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgV7WVTMJ8W
Terrence's eyes lit up with new found interest. "Who's your heat partner?"151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVdMkKeVsE
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMy4MOxnFq
"Mate," Josephine corrected.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZn1HqPPqo
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsIzdK597C
"Whatever," he replied in annoyance. He focused in on Ethan again. "Who have you been having sex with this week?"151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJ4a5aL4j8
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cwdikAleg
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOPoH4NBUQ
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8bGQaTb6U
Terrence shook his head in disbelief. "There's no way that's true."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TybSUFKvu
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLHXR9tJWs
"It's the truth," Ethan insisted.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkUPfD5YSr
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkj70g4s8eV
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."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW72rn1OFCE
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlInj5Asca
"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."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMCSlmnS16
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyNjN34IvW
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIn6cwGc27P
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLWdDh7EPE
Ethan settled back down into the chair, feeling somewhat satisfied.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwHkm84L7T
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJzG3gMK0x
Terrence flipped the paper over. "Charax technology. What do you know?"151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eTmwPmOR7
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpcp3P4idm
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5r1yWvUiq0
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRalq04fNtt
"I– What– That's what this is about?" Ethan struggled, trying to avoid having to lie.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XM4VFBQcf
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10u7BwQfUB
"He's too young to know anything about the tech," Josephine commented from her perch.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVcyPU4qS7
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPv1QMKEBR
"We've always got to check," Terrence muttered irritably, glancing back at the page. "Where are there more Charax?"151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXTfT05FLK
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyYu13ppIU
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1VCsm39s1
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkkPZhBVmS
"I don't believe you," Terrence said dryly.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx84buug3g
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoOJR6fZaA
"It's the truth," Ethan stated flatly.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYR3cymPYw
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmyscOmF7N
"You've been here your whole life. You've got to know someone. Give me a name," Terrence insisted.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aOtfXFLus
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnI6niyTVK
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8HDATfnuo
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwgfcOWDoX
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6Bp7jISyC
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0WZre0jCA
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."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIQpSfDKfx
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8xmsDzEdi
"He must know at least one," Terrence insisted still.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzoZMIgFmF
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmKgJygnGX
"It's not a truth serum," Josephine argued.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIH7ava0gqb
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhhJv9sNAU
It feels like it is, Ethan thought.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSOzzzQEJP
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmoNnHAJGg
"You'll have to try again later. He's almost gone." Josephine sounded disinterested now.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorlJV6yhWT
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TGnxg7ACk
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoaS77B0uH
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtRePNF8AH
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoweZfO8mB
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0o3DaPQlyL
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefjXBYTajg
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYHFtQ8UX4
"Don't touch me," Ethan grunted, all the protest he could manage in this state.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HUA76OLjn
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2y2w25fNmb
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."151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNg1V19Nr8
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJ90B99nAM
"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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1AiRApsYW
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRq905DWTJR
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRxEjpXpCE
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AhsSt5yv6
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnsJSq7tp3
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmSrmms1Mb
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.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jNbzEJNaQ
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLoJQn1QHZ
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 protection147ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkuSk9rEIr 維尼
