Chapter 1 Max's Birthday Party

~Mia's POV~

It was a windy night and I was sitting on the couch feeding Oscar, my little brother who was nearly 6 years old. Life was getting tougher and tougher day by day.

It was getting difficult for me to pay for Oscar's treatment bills. It was about two and a half years ago when I came across the news that Oscar was diagnosed with lung cancer and needed treatment right away.

My studies and Oscar's treatment was the only reason I was working as a busgirl in a restaurant at the age of 14. "Sis, what are u thinking" suddenly I heard Oscar's childish voice. "Nothing baby, finish up your dinner, you have to take your medicines".

I said while feeding him. "I know, I know, you don't have to tell me that every single time. I am not a kid anymore; I am going to be 6 next month".

I sighed while chuckling at what he said just now, "I know you are going to be 6 next month so you should act more mature and from now on you would sleep on time".

He looked at me with nervous eyes "Why sis, I always sleep at 11:30 after watching my favorite cartoon" he said with a shaky voice and looked at me with innocent tear-filled eyes. "Why are you crying honey, aren't you happy that you'll be going to kindergarten tomorrow, hmm?" I know it's difficult for a kid to adjust to a new atmosphere but still, he needs to go to kindergarten. I know he'll enjoy it when he finally goes there and make friends over there.

"Okay sweetheart now go to sleep, you have to wake up early tomorrow," I said while giving him an encouraging smile. He nodded and went straight to his room. I followed him and prepared him for bed.

After doing so I went back to my room and sat on the edge of my bed. I was thinking that I would be nothing if I didn't have Oscar by my side. I would be so broken and alone without him. I didn't realize that when I fell asleep.

I was woken up by the alarm. When I opened my eyes the sun was shining right on my face and so I had to cover my face with my hands. I went to the bathroom and took a shower.

When I came out of my room Oscar was already sitting on the sofa with wet hair, "Did you wash yourself sweetie? you should have told me." I said while heading towards the kitchen.

It was still early in the morning so I went to make some breakfast. "Well you were sleeping like a sleepy head so I thought better not to wake you up so early" I let out a small chuckle after hearing that. Well, it was awkward. "Well that's because I couldn't sleep well last night"

I told him the truth. Indeed, I wasn't able to sleep well last night. "Well it's okay you know, it's not a big deal. I am grown up now so I can wash up myself from now onwards."

I was so happy seeing him like that and so I smiled unintentionally while looking at him. "Stop smiling sis and make me breakfast, I'm hungry". I was dumbfounded and so I quickly came out of the kitchen with the breakfast and placed it over the table. "It's ready, look." He came running towards the table and sat beside me.

"Oscar, can you finish up your breakfast yourself? I have to go and get ready?" it was already 6:30 so I wanted to get ready as soon as possible. I can't afford to be late for school. "Yeah, I told you I am grown up so I can have my breakfast all by myself".

I rushed to my room and knocked on a chair on the way. I was in a hurry. I could be late if I don't hurry up. I changed into a simple white knee-length skirt and a pink tank top. My hair were open with a dutch braid on both sides.

"Sis it's 7:00 am, hurry up we're going to be late for school" I heard Oscar shouting, "Coming honey!" I replied as I came out of my room. I grabbed my bag pack and took Oscar's hand and led him to the front door.

I grabbed a taxi and first dropped Oscar at Baranoff Elementary school. It was near our home so I chose this kindergarten school for Oscar.

He waved at me and then the principal led him into the school. I sighed and headed towards my school. I studied at Akins High school. It was a very good school although we didn't have this much money to pay the fees the school had compensation offers for kids like me.

Students who were orphanand poor and good at studies used to get compensation in fees, not everyone. And so I was lucky. I am the topper of my class and everyone admires me.

After getting off the school, I went to pick Oscar from kindergarten. When I reached there he was already at the door waiting for me with his friends. I marched towards them, "Max this is my sister Mia, Mia Max my best friend."

I was so happy that he was getting used to it and even made friends. "Hi Max, it's nice meeting you," I said with a huge satisfied smile on my face. "Hi Mia nice to meet you too" he greeted me while shaking hands with me.

I saw a woman in her late twenties approaching me and realized that she was Max's mother, "hey there dear, you must be Oscar's sister aren't you" she with a smile on her face. "Yeah, I am Oscar's sister it's a pleasure meeting you," I said while shaking hands with her. "It's a pleasure meeting you too," she said while smiling.

She was indeed a very beautiful woman. She had brunette hair and a slim figure. She looked young yet very beautiful. "Mia next week is Max's birthday; it would be a pleasure if you both come to the birthday party."

"I am sure Oscar will love to come to his best friend's birthday party, we sure will come. Thank you, madam." I said while smiling at Max and Oscar. "I'd love to see both of you. Okay, Max honey let's go say goodbye to them" she said while smiling at me one last time.

They went out and sat in a black Rolls-Royce Cullinan. I was shocked and dumbfounded. No doubt they looked like a good family. "Sis what are you looking at, they are gone, let's go," he said while pinching me.

I was so ready to go to the party. After all, I was a teenager and liked to go to luxurious parties like that.

~Author's POV~

Mia was excited to go to the party after all she was an immature teenager. What she didn't know was that something big was waiting for her.

MY MASTERS

For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club. Shocked by the desires these men aroused in her, she was disappointed to learn that they were masters seeking a slave to divide and conquer. She couldn't afford the fee, and she also realized that they were outside her league. Emily hurriedly left the club, feeling disappointed and depressed, unaware that she had also caught the group's attention. A world of wicked pleasure, three handsome men. Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.
