Chapter 130
The men surrounding me insisted they really wanted to explore that leg.
My owners continued to say they could not touch. I relaxed knowing they would not deviate from what they said they would do.
My body jolted when I felt a brush on my leg and then it sounded Like a fight had broken out. I could hear the sounds of fists crashing into bone and yelling. I wanted to look, but that would only get me in trouble. It wasn’t Like I could have moved away from a stray attack anyway, my leg was tethered to the table.
“Cousins,” I heard Master Damien say authoritatively, “slaves are not touched in the tent. Do not try our patience.”
“I am here, Ciara,” Master Bane whispered in my ear from my right.
Master Christof said the same thing from my Left. I relaxed completely knowing they surrounded me.
The activity continued with a bit of grumbling. The other Warriors didn’t want to risk the wrath of my owners again, but that Leg was such an anomaly. They still wanted to touch and explore it.
I wondered suddenly what my owners thought of the markings. Did it turn them off? Did they think I looked gross now? It didn’t sound like they were trying to sell me to the men that were looking, but what if that was what they wanted to do? I had never thought to ask them any of those questions. My brows furrowed as I thought about it.

“Ciara,” Master Kein whispered, “what are you thinking about?” ly leg, Master Kein,” I answered softly.
“Look at me,” he commanded.
I opened my eyes and his face was just above mine. My peripherals took in the line of men filing past me on the other side.
“Ciara, look at me,” he commanded again and I focused on him.
Master Kein used a finger to turn my head toward him a little. That was probably a good idea. I was tempted to watch everything else that was going on. hat are you thinking about your leg?” he asked.
“Do you think it is ugly?” I blurted out.
Master Kein Looked confused, but answered that no, he didn’t think it was ugly. He looked at me like I was strange for a moment longer and told me to close my eyes.
It seemed like every Warrior in the compound came out to look at my leg. I was glad I was used to walking around everywhere nude or this would have been just awful. As it was most of these men had probably already seen me.
Once the curious were done, the sounds in the tent changed. It sounded like men were coming in and staying. They were talking casually about the prices of slaves and how much they should pay. I heard debates about what species of slave was best, some argued for humans, some argued against.
The cost of an Earth slave was certainly a detriment and then there were the daily costs. The nutrient drink we needed every day was pricey, as were the worms. Other types of slaves did not require such specialized care.
My upper back was a stiff from laying like I was. I tried to shift around a little and relieve the pressure, but my leg and foot were still elevated. That prevented me from moving around too much. I couldn’t find a better position
I felt the wind holding my leg up relax and Lower it back to the table.
Master Bane’s voice was in my ear a moment later.
“Roll onto your stomach, Ciara,” he told me.
