The darkness envelops everything, leaving only the stage lit with its brilliant glow. I can see the dim outline of my brother and uncle from where they sit next to me at our table. We found ourselves among the fortunate few, nestled comfortably in a semi-circular leather booth. Our tablet is in the middle, so we can all see it.
The screen comes to life and the picture of one of the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen pops up. Her bio reads like a recipe: Five-foot-five, brown hair, chocolate eyes, thirty-four C breasts.
It’s like I’m one of the guys in the eighties movie Dad used to love to watch, where they created their own woman. Fuck if she wasn’t a smoke show just like Virtue.
“Virtue is twenty, and just as her name and attire suggest, one hundred percent pure. That’s right, ladies and gentlemen, you’re bidding on a virgin. Who wants to be the first to have her? Let the bidding start at five hundred thousand,” Edward’s voice booms through the speaker.
If I thought she was gorgeous in her picture, I was wrong. It doesn’t compare to the goddess stepping out onto the stage. She keeps her head down, her hands fidgeting restlessly at her sides.
A fucking virgin at twenty! She’s a fucking unicorn if there ever was one.
I”ve never been with someone who was still a virgin, not even when I lost my own. Nope, I lost mine to a high schooler when I was fourteen. I was young and dumb. The only thing on my horny teenage brain was getting my dick wet.
Cala had an ulterior motive, and I was oblivious to it. She was looking for status and a way into my family so she could sink her teeth into Killian. Cala saw being with me as a way to get closer to Killian and hopefully tricking him into bed and getting pregnant.
The one flaw in her plan was that he wasn’t at all interested in her. Instead of taking her chance and having a back-up plan with me, she made sure I wore a condom. Guess she didn’t want to end up with the kid brother as a father to her baby.
Her loss, seeing as she didn’t end up with anything other than a reputation for being a slut. If I’m not mistaken, she’s on baby daddy number four now and living off public assistance.
Virtue’s nervous. It’s evident in how awkwardly she walks to the middle of the stage. She’s like a duck out of water in her heels and when she loses her footing and stumbles, a cacophony of gasps erupts in the audience.
Her ankle rolls in the sky-high white heels, but by the grace of god she’s able to recover and quickly rights her body and does a turn. I can’t help the groan that rips from my mouth when I see her plump ass. All I can fucking think about is how badly I want to bend her over a table while I fuck her tight hole.
Movement in my peripheral catches my attention and I see Uncle Liam make a bid, but the button doesn’t light up green. Shit, someone’s already trying to steal her right out from under us.
Uncle Liam doesn’t relent and bids again, and it lights up green. Both he and Killian are sitting upright and rigid in their seats. They”re studying her with such intensity, as if they know who she is. I open my mouth to say something but quickly press my lips back together. The warning my family gave me, living rent free in my brain. But once this is over, I firmly plan to question them about their reaction to seeing her.
If I could jump in the air and do a fist pump, I would. But I can’t. They were very clear about the rules before we left the house.
The more Edward says about Virtue, the higher the bid grows. As soon as Uncle Liam enters one, it’s quickly countered.
My nerves are on edge and I can’t watch the tablet any longer. I let my eyes wander back up to the stage and the beauty that’s on it.
She shifts her weight from foot to foot, her gaze firmly fixed on the ground beneath her. Come on Virtue, look up. Let me see those chocolate eyes so I can gaze into your soul.
It’s as if we share a psychic connection, because her head shifts upward right on cue. She doesn’t know it but she’s staring straight at me and my cock twitches in appreciation at her.
Beside me, there’s a stir of movement, and the light from the tablet shifts closer to Uncle Liam and Killian, shining softly in their faces. They’re whispering in muffled words to each other as they continue to bid on Virtue. It takes a moment, but when I’m able to see the bid light up after they finally get one to flash green, it’s already at five million.
I almost faint at the amount they’re spending on her, and I’m curious as to why.
What pussy is worth that much money? It’s what I would have asked before seeing Virtue. I get why now.
Fuck if this isn’t the longest five minutes I’ve ever seen. With every bid, we’re quickly out bid.
“One minute, ladies and gentlemen until bidding for our first lot closes.” Edward’s voice rings in my ear as I watch the beauty on stage let out a breath.
My knee begins to bounce beneath the table, and my hands curl into fists.
I want Virtue.
More than anything I’ve ever wanted before and I don’t even know why. She’s nothing more than a nameless girl, but I desire her so intensely.
Maybe it’s because she’s a virgin and it would be crossing something off my sexual exploration list. You know the one, we all have them; anal-check, bondage-check, threesome-check, orgy-check, et cetera.
My uncle places bid after bid and each time his light turns from green to red, my blood pressure rises. By the time this is over, I’m going to need to be placed on medication.
“Ladies and gentlemen, we have thirty seconds remaining,” Edward’s deep voice announces.
The button’s still red.
Fuck! We’re going to lose the bid.
But my uncle and brother just stare, the seconds ticking away. Why did they bid so hard just to let her slip through their fingers now?
Then, with a swift movement, my uncle places a bid just as the timer hits one. Ten fucking million dollars. My jaw drops at the amount just as the light flashes green and then it locks and the screen goes black.
What the fuck?! Did we win?
“The bidding is over. If you won, your tablet will now notify you so you can complete the payment. Virtue, please leave the stage.”
The beauty turns and walks, disappearing behind a curtain just as the tablet lights up.
Congratulations. You placed the winning bid on lot one. Please complete your payment for the merchandise.
My heart flutters in excitement. Please let her be for me. Honestly, I really don’t care if Uncle Liam and Killian want to join, but I want to be the one to take her virginity.
“We will begin bidding for lot number two in just a few moments,” Edward announces, just as a waiter steps up to our table with fresh drinks.
Shit, does the tablet even hold our drinking preferences? The only thing that sucks now is that we have to wait.
