MADELEINE BOULLIER<br/><br/><strong>"...And at length,"</strong>I finished for him. He was too good to be true, perhaps he was adding to what I had garnered from the file merely to try and hike the price. Yet what purpose would that serve? If a Mistress found he was lying, she would merely flay the skin off his back.<br/><br/>Perhaps what he said was true?<br/><br/><strong>"Eef I am buying you, <em>Monsieur Chat</em> and it becomes clear you boast of skills you do not possess I will personally make your existence fairy, fairy short. And fairy nasty. Are we understanding each other?"</strong>I folded my arms and regarded him. He was at least beautiful. That long dangling meat between his legs kept drawing my eye.<br/><br/><strong>"To be truthful weeth you, I came here tonight looking just for a fucktoy, someone to have fun with, so my bidding price will reflect that."</strong><br/><br/>Around me other successful buyers were gathering up their purchases and leaving the room. The crowd had thinned considerably. I noticed to my surprise that all the other cages were now empty and<em>le chat lilac</em>was the last slave to be auctioned.<br/><br/>An idea formed...<br/><br/>I walked over to the auctioneer and politely waited as he dealt with some business with another buyer. When he was done I spoke privately in his ear, whispering discreetly to make quite sure we were not overheard.<br/><br/><strong>"<em>Bonsoir</em>, Toshiru-san. Are you well? Good. There is just a single slave remaining to be auctioned this evening. I see no other bidders interested in heem. Please may I suggest that I buy him direct without an auction? Perhaps... let us say... two hundred and fifty thousand? I will of course double the usual auctioneers commission - I would not wish you to lose out on your personal cut this evening."</strong>
