Chapter 17: Night At The Auction
Penelope had woken up from her sleep hungry and now unable to see with a black cloth covering her eyes and with handcuffs clasped around her wrists in the front.
She didn't know when they started moving, but the cargo carriage came to a hault.
Penelope heard James speaking to someone.
"This is a very high amount, 5 million gold?"
Lyria will be very pleased, James thought.
"Okay Lady, let's go. Hurry it up"
The strange man grabbed her by the arm and rushed her to his cargo carriage with a big cage on it.
Penelope was tossed in, then she heard a slam and click.
Penelope missed her sister.... I want to get out of here so I can see her face.
Tears flowed down
