chapter 2

The minimum to attend the virgin omega auctions was earning six figures a year.

If an alpha didn't earn at least that, then there was no way they would be permitted to even enter the establishment.

The last time Yoon Tae-joon attended, the minimum going rate for an untouched omega was fifty thousand dollars.

That had only been five years ago, but Yoon Tae-joon had heard the price had almost doubled since then.

Stepping up to the heavily guarded entrance he held his hand out, palm up, as the security officer ran the identification scanner over his palm.

The device was a technologically sophisticated piece of equipment. Not only would it reveal his name and all personal and relevant information, it also secured the admission fee to enter the facility.

The burly man blocking the entrance nodded in acknowledgment and stepped to the side, opening the door for Yoon Tae-joon to enter.

"Welcome, Master Yoon. Enjoy your evening."

The first thing he saw upon entering was the large wooden stage in the center of the opulent room.

Velvet drapes hung like dripping black ink. The stage was glossed to perfection. An attendant scanned his hand once again and led him to his seat.

Yoon Tae-joon didn't miss the fact many of the alphas in attendance stopped their conversations to stare at him.

He knew the rumors that were still circulating around the city about Baek Si-ho's death, even years later.

Yoon Tae-joon also knew a lot of the alphas that attended these auctions could be cruel to their young and innocent omegas.

By contrast he had been gentle and comforting with Baek Si-ho, traits that were frowned upon by many of the alphas that ran in the same circles as he did.

His watch showed the auction would start momentarily, and that was confirmed when the lights dimmed and the others took their seats.

The first person to step on the stage was a beautiful omega with café au lait skin. There were hushed murmurs from the alphas around him that spoke of lascivious things.

The omega stopped in the center of the stage, his head lowered and his hands clasped behind his back.

He was the perfect specimen of what a virgin omega should be: Docile, submissive, and eager to please.

When the attendant finished displaying the young omega's assets, the bidding started.

The auction was silent, with prospective buyers entering their interest into the small bidding panels attached to the armrests of their seats.

Although the omega was undeniably beautiful, he was not the one Yoon Tae-joon had come here for.

Omega after omega graced the stage as Yoon Tae-joon sat patiently. When the announcer finally said his name, the omega he'd been waiting for, he felt his blood rush through his veins.

Ryu Ji-ahn.

It was a name that had his cold and broken heart beating wildly again. Ryu Ji-ahn stepped tentatively onto the stage. His head was lowered and his hands clasped in front of him.

The alphas around him started speaking adamantly and Yoon Tae-joon knew that he wasn't the only one that had seen something special in him.

His fists clenched as he heard the alpha beside him speak in a hushed tone about the filthy things he could do to him.

They were vile, sadistic creatures that got more pleasure out of inflicting pain on these innocent beauties than experiencing a relationship that would last the rest of their lives.

It wasn't uncommon for them to buy a handful of virgin omegas, creating their own harem for the sole purpose of finding as much selfish pleasure as they could.

It was a disgusting display of their power and the true nature of their souls.

Ryu Ji-ahn's measurements were announced to all.

The attendant stepped beside him and untied the robe. When the material dropped to the ground, the whispers around him became aflame with interest.

His small delicate cock was on display, his nipples were of the colour pink and so pretty.

As Yoon Tae-joon let his eyes take in the gentle sweep of his body and the creamy peach-colored hue of his skin, he felt himself grow hard.

Ji-ahn was small in comparison to many of the other virgins, but compared to him he was utterly tiny.

His bone structure was delicate, so soft and fragile in appearance that he reminded him of a porcelain doll.

Despite his petite frame his body was beautifully formed. His cock grew even harder and he found the need to shift in his seat to relieve the discomfort that was quickly settling behind his fly.

He didn't know what it was about him that called to him with such a rush of emotion, but he wasn't about to ignore it.

As the attendant started speaking about his tight virgin hole in an almost vulgar manner Yoon Tae-joon saw his cheeks redden.

He was sweet and shy, and the knowledge that these alphas surrounding him were getting a look at him in such an intimate manner had fury building swiftly inside of him.

As if this was the one moment that would define the rest, he was told to raise his head.

His pulse quickened as his startling clear eyes stared straight ahead. Of course he couldn't see into the crowd of onlookers, but when his unseeing gaze swept over him, settled there for a suspended moment, he wished that he could see him.

He would have reassured him that the worries clearly written on his face were unjust. He wasn't about to let any other alpha have him.

As soon as he was done being put on display the flurry in the audience increased.

Hands started tapping out bids, but Yoon Tae-joon waited patiently. Paper was being shuffled around on the sidelines as officials tried to keep up with the overwhelming interest that Ryu Ji-ahn had stirred.

Right when the bidding would have ceased, he entered his amount, which surpassed even the most astronomical figure currently holding the lead.

There weren't many that had his kind of wealth, and if someone did exceed his bid, well then, they didn't know that if Yoon Tae-joon wanted something he would stop at nothing to acquire it.

Yoon Tae-joon looked at the small glowing screen on his armrest. With only five seconds to go and his bid well above the original high bidder, Yoon Tae-joon had no doubts he would come out victorious.

Once the counter ended there was a collective whisper, which probably had more to do with him being who he was and buying another omega than the small fortune he paid for Ryu Ji-ahn.
