This is my first story, be gentle please.
As a general rule, I am usually hot. No, I don't mean hot as in attractive, nor hot as in horny. I mean hot as in temperature, as in sweating, as in wanting to walk around in your birthday suit in an attempt to cool off your body in the flaming heat of summer. But that often applied in winter as well.
Walking down a back road, amongst the slush and dirt of a Michigan winter, I was cold. I wrapped the jacket around myself a little tighter, as if that would somehow stop the wind from slicing through it to my skin. The deconstructed (or holy, which ever you prefer) black jeans I wore offered little protection against the biting wind, and the canvas converse I was wearing quickly soaked through. But I wasn't thinking about that. My mind was numb, nothing transferred to my brain. I just walked. Walked down a few alleys I shouldn't have, took a few wrong turns. I think my subconscious knew where I was going. Maybe it, in its dejected state, wanted me in the south end. Maybe it hoped I'd get murdered. I didn't obviously. But as a hand with a fowl-smelling rag closed over my mouth, that was the last thought that passed through my mind before the world faded to black.

I awoke groggily and alive. I did not know how much time had passed, nor where I was. I was blindfolded and my hands were bound behind my back. When I tried to stumble foreword a chain between my ankles clanked, and a collar of some sorts choked me back.
"Looks like that pale twink you picked up on Woodrow woke up, Tyler." A male voice stated off to my right. "Should I knock him out again?"
"Nah, shop'll be open before he wakes up again. Besides, he ain't going anywhere." The second, deeper voice responded, somewhere near the first, finishing with a dark chuckle.
"You know," the first said, coming closer to me. "I ain't normally that into guys, but this one's rather pretty." He grabbed my chin, probably to get a better look at my face, and I jerked away.
"Where am I?" I demanded, kicking the man, possibly in the shins. He cried out in pain and the other one came thundering over. He stood next to me in silence for a moment, then let out a booming laugh.
"Getting beat by a tied-up bitch, Luke? Now that's pathetic for even you." He said to his hobbling companion.
"Shut up, Tyler." Then he turned to me. "Why you little bitch! I ought teach you a lesson!" He was close to my face now.
"Someone ought to teach you a lesson in grammar." I quibbled back.
"Why you..." Luke growled. I think he was about to punch me when Tyler grabbed his fist.
"You know we're not allowed to damage the merchandise. Boss'll have your head." The bigger man stated calmly. It seemed like they had had this discussion before. Luke huffed and stormed away.
"His owner is gonna have a hella time with him."
"What is this?" I questioned again. "Some sort of slave trade?" Tyler opened his mouth to speak when he was cut off.
"Smart, kid." A rich, commanding voice commented. I could hear the smirk in his voice. This man was powerful, and he knew it. He took long quick strides and stopped in front if me. He could not see my eyes, but I still looked down. "What is your name?" I could smell his cologne, hear the whisper of his suit against his tie.
"Russell...sir." I debated on the address, but decided it would be best if this man liked me, likely being the boss of the place. There was a moment of silence before he spoke again.
"Would you rather have a Mistress or a Master?" I remained silent this time, tilting my head down to hide my blushing cheeks. I was thankful for the tight pants I wore, hiding the boner I had because, in all honesty, I was horribly turned on at the idea of a Master. I knew I was a masochist, and this way, I wouldn't have to try and find someone who would like me, they would come to me, so to speak.
"Well that gave me my answer. Nothing to be ashamed of, kid." I was a bit surprised by that statement. Apparently he hadn't heard what the rest of the world was saying. The man turned to Tyler. "Tell me when Mr. Baxter gets here. I think he'll like this one." Then he turned and walked away. A short while later I heard "Lukas, what the hell were you thinking with that girl's shirt?!" There was other bustling sounds of a business preparing to open that I mostly ignored. As much as I disliked being in the dark and defenseless, I was at least thankful they hadn't changed my clothes as they apparently had with some of the other people chained up like me. Guess they thought I had good style, not that I would argue otherwise. At some point a girl next to me woke up and started panicking and screaming.
"Shut up will you?!" I snapped after a moment. She quieted, sobbing.
