Thread: Wealth and Power (Aldir, Snow white)

Grey eyes settled upon the final product for tonight, Julia noting absently that her sister had pulled out her phone and was playing this game or that one on it. The irritation of the rest of tonights disappointment vanished when she gazed upon this one she even leaned forward to get a better look at her. She looked about a couple of years younger than Julia herself, her form was pleasing to the eyes as the rich woman examined the dips and curves about her. Physically she appeared really no different than the other girls that had been paraded before the assortment gathered her. However it was not the physicality that Julia was looking at, it was how she carried herself. A fire spirit in her matched the red of her hair she was certainly a feral one if ever Julia had seen one. A bit of glee rose in the wealthy woman as she heard about her history, a proud and strong example of humanity with a red stained ledger. So red that Julia could imagine it was positively gushing, betrayed by her own. No honor among thieves as the saying went, though her misfortune was the dark haired womans possible pleasure. This was the challenge she had sought. The opportunity to transform this woman into something shattered. Numbers were thrown about, the high hundred thousands being the starting point. Julia being the owner of a rather successful oil business, had plenty of money to spend. She waited and waited for the numbers to climb, only when the bidders had filtered down did she give her own bid. It was all about the wait, getting in too early showed that she had something to prove which she did not. Waiting displayed a bit of comfort of this entire affair, which might cause others to back down. 2.5 Million. The woman called out, doubling the current place of the bid. Her sister did look up from her game at that, her phone actually falling out of her hands as she gave Julia a rather surprised look. The older sister merely smirked and leaned back in her chair, crossing her legs primly. No further bids were forthcoming, the amount of money spent on a single slave seeming rather ludicrous even to the gathering here. Oh, but she was worth every cent to the woman, who met her green eyes with a smile that did not reach her eyes which were possessed of a cold gleam to them. Sold to Miss Julia Revil. I was wondering when you might speak up, been a while since a Revil bought anything here. How do you want her? The auctioneer said, lifting a brow. What can I say, Im a picky girl. If you would bind her and blindfold her and deliver her to the trunk of my car that would be nice. No gag though. The woman stated simply, gathering up her purse and already making her way out of the room, heels clacking loudly on the floor as she left the auction room. Her sister was quick to follow, Julia already arranging the transaction of funds from her phone as she made her way through the building. Felicia still had a look of utter bewilderment upon her face, surprised and it was a rare enough expression that Julia took some petty pleasure in it. With the transaction arranged with but a few swift movements of her fingers the wealthy woman put the amount of money out of mind. Slowly Felicia seemed to regain her composure and smirked at her sister. I know I told you to live a little but damn girl! I didnt think youd apply the advice like that. So what are you going to do with her? She commented. Perhaps you should be more careful with your words then, sister mine. Anyway, you could say Ive been looking for a project on the side of the stresses of running the business. More than that I will not say. Maybe later I might let you get a sneak peek. The woman replied, making her way through the parking garage now. She took her time to get to the car, opting to give some time for her delivery to be complete. Soon enough she arrived at the sleek black car and she unlocked the doors to allow her and her sister to get in. Before putting the keys in the ignition though she waited, holding up a finger when her sister opened her mouth to say something. She was listening for something, attentively waiting for a sound or two from the trunk of the car. Julia hadnt left her ungagged for no reason she wanted to listen to the cursing pleading and begging on the way back home. Only when she heard it would she turn the car on and start to make her way home, listening in silence all the while.
