there,
    with hopes of attaining a husband. Sure, once in a while, a father
    might sign over his guardianship to the Compound, but that was
    something she didn’t think happened anymore. Or did it?
    The bedroom was very nice. It was one of the nicest rooms
    she had ever seen. The bed was king size, low to the ground with
    plush pillows and cream silk sheets, and arranged with a
    comforter folded to the middle of the bed. Two white robes draped
    at the end of the bed, and two natural stained oak end-tables were
    positioned on either side.
    There was also a low table in the middle of the room with
    over-stuffed pillows placed around for seating. Arranged next to
    the table, a smaller table was adorned with strawberries and wine
    chilling in a bucket of ice.
    The bathroom was just as impressive as the bedroom. A large
    shower with at least six heads built into the wall was immediately
    located on her right. It had no walls or shower curtain of any kind.
    Off to the left, was a large whirlpool bath tub for two. Double sinks
    stood in the middle and in the back corner, the toilet with a private
    door to close.
    A click and Samara was back out in the bedroom, facing the
    door that was opening. Dane walked in, glancing around the room
    with an approving expression on his face.
    “Very nice,” he stated.

    “What’s going on here?” she asked, crossing her arms over
    her chest. It was an action initiated mostly to help give her a bit of
    protection. The damn dress she was in showed off way too much
    of her body.
    “Didn’t I already answer that?” He closed the door behind him
    and turned a dial, producing a clicking sound, which indicated they
    were locked in.
    But she had to test it. Samara rushed past him to the door,
    trying the knob. “Why are we locked in here?”
    “You don’t know?” He frowned at her for a second before
    going over to the bucket where the wine was chilling. “Ah, I heard
    about this.” he picked up one of the strawberries that had a glaze
    of chocolate on it. “Now this, I can’t wait to try.”
    “Hello!” She waved her arms up in the air to get his attention.
    “Is there something wrong with you? What the hell is going on
    here?”
    He put the strawberry down, picked up the bottle from the ice
    bucket, popped the cork and poured two glasses. Once filled, he
    placed the bottle back in the ice, picked up the glasses and
    walked over to her, handing her one. Samara took it.
    “Okay, what do you know about the Compound?” he asked,
    taking a drink.
    Samara took a deep breath and raised her head. “I know that
    it’s a playground for you rich people. Guys, like you, come in for
    your pleasure and leave.”
    Dane licked his lips and frowned at her for a second. “Well
    that’s part of it, I guess, but not everything.” He turned and walked
    over to the low table, sitting down and lounging back on the
    pillows. “Come sit down.” She didn’t move. “Please?”
    With great reluctance, and her gut screaming not to get too
    close to him, Samara went over to the table, but sat down across
    from him.
    “It’s true that the upper class comes to the Compound for their
    pleasures, but the ladies also come with the hope of finding their
    perfect match.”
    “And is it true that fathers sell their daughters also?”
    “Yes.”
    Samara rolled her eyes and looked away.
    “One of my best friends was matched up here with his wife,
    who was heartlessly sold to the Compound by her father. It was

    also by chance that he saw her when she was trying to run away.
    He knew, at that moment, she was the one for him.” That
    statement had her looking back at him. “Just like I knew, the
    second I saw you walking across the street, that you were the one
    for me.”
    Samara shook her head. “No.” She stood up quickly, went
    back to the door and banged on
