Revenge
Chapter 19

My eyes widened in response to this and Ezra’s eyes widened in surprise as well. Either Megan didn’t know this or Megan just knowingly sold me to get inside an event to achieve her goal. I wasn’t sure what to make of this. I would most likely kill whoever bought me and leave anyway. Since they checked us for weapons we couldn’t afford to bring any. However, no one took into consideration our claws, so I am not worried about that.

“Now before we begin the handlers are to remain with their designated woman. Until purchase is complete. In which case the handler is to pay extra if the buyer does not want the handler to go with the woman who they had just bought” he finishes explaining.

In other words, I will be lucky if Ezra is able to accompany me wherever the buyer takes me. When the auctions begins, it didn’t take long for the women to be sold to a specific buyers Gordon planned for them. From what I could gather, Gordon made his fortune from selling women to these buyers. In return the money they would wire to him would be used to fund the campaign and keep this illegal activities going. From the looks of the audience from where I can see from the side of the stage.

There were a bunch of members of Congress and State Assembly in the crowd. It didn’t surprise me that these individuals were here. But I felt rather disturbed by the level of corruption from them and the greed from Gordon. My name was called and I stepped forward entering onto the stage. I look out into the crowd with Ezra standing behind me.

I was correct but also wrong. There were all kinds of low government officials. No doubt here to feed their messed up fantasies and buy into Gordon’s good graces. There was a hush over the crowd for a minute as the auctioneer introduced me.

“Here we have a rare specimen indeed, a human spliced with snow leopard DNA; few have survived this.” says the auctioneer

I couldn’t help being offended at his reference to me as a specimen. And it didn’t help the strong urge to slit his throat with my own claws. However, the goal is to get to Gordon any way possible and that is what I plan to do. The auction continued with the number increasing in value. I was shocked when it hit twenty thousand and still it continued. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

What I wasn’t expecting however, was the bidding war that soon took over the room. When the price reached $500,000 some of the officials backed out not wanting to overspend their limit. It narrowed it down to two men in the back who I couldn’t see very well due to the light. The final bet was for one million dollars going to the guy in the back.

“Do you wish to purchase the handler’s ability to come with her?” asked the auctioneer

“No” said a cold voice who pulled out a gun from his coat pocket.

Points it at Ezra rapidly firing six shots to his chest. With each shot that rang in the air made my ears ring with pain. As I turn to see each bullet hitting Ezra in six different places on his chest.

I scream as Ezra falls back in surprise mixed with pain on his face as his body falls with a loud slam. His blood pools around him.

“Ezra! Ezra!!!” I scream horror on my face. Tears streaming down my face as I fall to my knees crying over his body. My heart shatters from the pain of losing him. A scream rips from my throat. Releasing all my anguish and sorrow. People start in shock. Some try to approach him to move his body.

A loud growl is released from my throat. Resulting them raising their hands backing away. I would and will kill anyone who tries to take his body from me. The thoughts kept racing through my mind. He couldn’t possibly be dead. He promised he would stay with me. Ezra has to be alive but his body laying in front of me says otherwise.

Too many thoughts go through my head. The pain runs with cruelty though my body of the man I love being shot and murdered in front of me. How could this have happened? This wasn’t a part of the plan! Questions start to swarm my brain as to why Ezra had to die. And how did we not see this as a potential outcome. So we could have prevented it.

And if Meg was behind this I was going to kill her too. For her fault Ezra was murdered. For her fucked up plan he one man who ever loved me is dead. The one man who accepted me right away was shot right in front of me by the man who had just bought me. Rage fills me but is mixed with my sorrow of losing Ezra. The man who has bought me grabs me pulling me roughly up and leads me out the club. Forcing me to leave Ezra’s body and the shocked faces for the people.

I stumble behind him while being consumed by my sorrow, my rage begins to boil. At the corner of my eye I could have sworn his chest moved. Unsure of what I saw with tears blurring my vision. My soul starts to crack seeing Ezra lying there within his own blood. The crowd goes crazy with fright. Screams can be heard throughout the venue as they finally notice the blood pooled around Ezra’s body once I was pulled away.

They begin to stampede out the club. Pushing and shoving each other out the way in an attempt to save themselves. Through all the chaos I could not see where Megan and Derek are, I have no idea if they are still here. Or if they have truly abandoned me to the man who has just bought me.

Gordon attempts to make a swift exit off the stage going somewhere and pulling out his phone to make a phone call. Judging by his body language he was planning on making a break for it. There has to be a secret passageway he was going to attempt to use. After seeing Ezra’s murder I no longer care about what happens to me. I was not going to allow him to escape. He was partly to blame for Ezra’s death.

As the man drags me towards the club’s emergency exit. We start to pass Gordon, taking advantage I quickly ripping my arm away from the man. The man stumbles forward at my sudden movement. I quickly turn around, I extend my claws and accurately slash Gordon on the side of his neck housing his carotid artery with precision. Blood spurts from the four slashes all on the same artery.

His eyes widen in surprise as he drops his phone. After barely ending his phone call. He lets out a gurgle noise before he drops to his knees his hands shoot to his neck. In a misguided attempt to stop the bleeding. The blood seeps through his fingers. His eyes dulled as he took his last breath before falling flat on his face. Blood pooling around his head and staining his shirt. I couldn’t help but feel a bit better seeing him dead.

Remembering about the man who bought me and who shot murdering Ezra. I spin around grabbing his arm and twist my body shifting my weight. I toss the man over my shoulder with ease. He slams back first into the floor. The man’s body bounces off the floor before fully landing on it.
