13 year old Emily Johnston Sat silently on the wagon bench next to her Uncle Theo. She refused to look at the old man or speak so much as a single word to him the entire tip into town. He had grumbled for the first couple of hours trying from time to time to draw his niece into conversation. But Emily had no desire to share pleasantries with the man.
She and her sister Rose had come to live with their Aunt Maud and Uncle Theo almost a year ago. When their father a rich merchant had passed away leaving the girls orphaned.

Thier mother having passed away several years ago. Her Uncle Theo and his son Adam had taken over running her fathers well established shipping lines and variuse other bisnesses. Running several into the ground until there was nothing left. What he didn't close down he had gambled away. Now because of his and his sons penchant for gambling the family faced debtors prison. Having no money to pay back all that they owed.
Aunt Maud had no idea what was happening. Living happily in the dark and playing the part of lady of the house that she had redecorated with the girls inheratence money. leaving their coffers empty. Emily would have had no idea what was happening if she hadn't discovered her uncle in his study. So drunk he was incapable of walking. He sat at his dest crying over a large stack of papers and bills.

It was that night that he had told Emily of what they had done. It was also that night that he had explained to her the role she was going to have to play in all of this to save her sister from debtors prison.
It was simple he had said. There is a place that he knows of. The will auction her off to the highest bidder. She could make hundreds of thousands because she was a true born lady and pure as the day she had been born. It had taken Emily awhile to understand what he was saying , once she did she became irate.
But he had used his charm and wit to talk her into agreeing that this was the only way to save her sister. So they had come up with athe plan that he was taking her to town to find a rich husband. She was fine with the lie. Not wanting her sister to ever know what she was being forced to do.

Emily cuaght herself as the wagon came to a stop outside of a large two story building with fancy curtians in the windows. It wasn't what she had expected. Letting her Uncle help her down from the wagon she stood on the side walk and brushed the dust from her skirts.
At 13 she was already a lovely young lady. With firey red hair with golden highlights. That fell to her waist in a solid heavy braid. a peaches and cream complexion free of blemishes. Almond shaped green eyes with dark golden flecks in their depths and full pink lips.She is four foot 8 inches with small breasts and gently curved hips. She is definately a beauty to behold, and that's with her clothes on.

The man that answered the door was tall very thin and refused to look at her uncle. Though he did let his eyes wonder over her young form more than once. She was escorted to a seating room where she was told to wait and enjoy a light snack of cheese and bread with grapes while the men talked bisness. Emily sat nervoisely. She sat on the edge of a chair waiting quietly for her uncle to return. Eventually the old man returned alone.
He informed her that her uncle would be about until after the final sale so that he could accept his money before being on his way. When he asked her to follow him Emily stood and did so silently. A million questions running through her mind. Perhaps the man knew she would have many questions because slowly be gan talking to her.
" your not the first high born miss to be brought here. We will be sure that your not mistreated while in our care. Once your sold of course your treatment will be someone elses concern. Your quit lovely so i imagine with your papers proving your heratige and the fact that your a virgin will bring in a great deal of money. that alone will ensure a better quality of gentlmen than usual. we will bathe you,dress you ,perfume you. after that you will be placed on an elivated stage and it will be up to you to entice the men into bidding for you.

The auctionare will do his part as well to drive those bids as high as possible. but it will be you. Your reactions and movements that will incourage the men or not. " He had lead her upstairs to the second floor and down a long hallway where he slowly came to a stop and opened a door as he stopped speaking. stepping inside with her he stood in the open door way.

" a young lady will be in shortly to help you prepare. you will be going on stage in 2 hours. please be sure that all your belongs stay in this room when you leave it. Once the auction is over you will be reunited with your belongings downstairs. "
Turning he left the room closing the door silently behind him. Emily sat her satchel down on a small chair and walked to look out one of the many windows in the room. She hadn't heard the door open so the small hand on her shoulder made her jump. Turning she came eyes to chin with a slightly older young lady. Her name was Jenny and she worked for the owner of this house of ill repute. Assisting the other girls in dressing or cleaning their rooms. One of her duties was to also help any young ladies that came in to be auctioned off.
She used soft words in a sing song voice to lure Emily into removing her clothing and stepping into a hot bath where she soaped,scrubbed and massaged the young girl until she was clean and relaxed. standing in the water she tilted her head back and let the girl rince the soap suds from her hair and body leaving her body glistening in the sunlight filtering into the room from lace covered windows.
The girl had looked at Emily closely watching her every move. Eventualy Emily grew tired of the girl watching her like some kind of side show and demanded to know why she was watching her so intently.
The girl smiled and shrugged her shoulders. stating " i was waiting for the histarics to begin. But i think maybe your stonger than all that and there wont be any water works or begging comming from you. right pleasure you are. all silent and lost in your own thoughts as you are. you havent given me a lick of problems since i stepped into the room. "

Emily sighed and lifted her arms as the girl placed a tulle robe over her. Saying in a soft voice. " What would good would it do be to weep when i would still be leaving here with a stranger when all is said and done."She looked down at her naked body beneath the layers of tulle perfectly capable of seeing not only her breasts but the firey patch of red hair between her thighs. blushing dark red she looked at the girl in shock her lips falling open. " surely this isn't what im going out there in. why this is very indecent. they will be able to see my whole body. Nothing is hidden."
The girl chuckled throatily and nods her head excitedly. " that's the point ninny. you want them to see how lovely your body is. it will make them want you all the more."

skipping to the door the girl opened it and ushered Emily out into the hall. Emily doing her best to cover her breasts and the small patch of red curls between her thighs followed behind the girl until they where down stairs and Emily was told to wait beside a closed door while the girl went inside.
When the door opened Emily could hear several men inside and the smell of cigars came drifting out through the opening. Two large men suddenly appeared and each took her by an arm and escorted her to the back of the stage while keeping wandering hands from touching her. At the back of the stage she stood in near darkness waiting silently. scared out of her wits at what was about to happen she nibbled on her full lower lip. suddenly a man whistling caught her attention. It was then that a man leaned out of the shadows to look down on her as he drew closer.
" your a pretty little thing aren't you. You do your part up on stage and ill get a nice fat purse for that sleezy uncle of yours."

with that he dissapeared behind some curtians and she heard his booming voice over the rest of the mens in the room. Slowly the room quieted and he began telling the men in the room what a treat they where in for.Calling her a " Firey red head. A true born lady as innocent as the driven show. Any man would be lucky to call this little lady theirs."

he also discribed several other girls that would be going up for auction none of which where virgins. Seeing some of them she wondered if they where truly ladies at all,but kept the thought to herself. Slowly the number of girls ranging in age from 13 to 25 dwindled. until it was just Emily and another young lady Who appeared to be about her age. That girl hadnt looked up once and Emily highly suspected she was crying from the way her shoulders where moving. Sighing she stilled herself. Straitened her back and lifted her head as she was told to go up on stage. Stepping out onto the stage she was blinded by the glare of lights but slowly her eyesight adjusted. their where cat calls and whistles while the man across the stage talked rapidly. suddenly people where shouting numbers. and the man was taking bids.

he indicated she should turn around and show the men her back side so she did so. Her red hair falling down to her waist in thick wurling waves of red and gold. her bottom rounded with a dark frekle on her right butt cheek.
Slowly she turned back to face the crowded room of men and smiled just slightly. but it was enough for the men to get a glimps of the beauty that she truly was. Her heart felt like it was going to beat out of her chest she couldn't hear what was being said anymore. just the thump thump thump of her own heart beat in her ears. she nibbled gently on her lower lip and lowers her eyes.

It all seemed to take an eternity but in reality she was on the stage for no more than thirty or fourty minutes. she wasn't even sure of how much money her uncle was getting for her.
Suddenly it was over and she was ushered off stage by a strong pair of hands. Suprisingly it was another woman. She lead Emily out of the room and down the hall to an office. Entering she indicated a chair across the room that Emily could sit in. The woman mumbled " you did just fine sweets. You deffinately had them ole dogs barking out there.

I dont remember the last time we had such high bids on a girl. now you just stay here. Mister and the man that won the bid will be in shortly to sign all the paper work and then you will be leaving here with your new owner.

The woman dissapeared leaving Emily alone. The word owner echoing in her head. My god she thought how had it come to this. Her dreams of marying for love as her parents had done and having several babies was all for nothing. she would never be married. she could never again go around her sister or her sisters family. she would be the out cast that was looked down apon if anyone ever discovered what she was being forced to do to save her family.

She wanted to cry. Her chest burned with the need to release unshed tears, but she couldn't allow herself to loose her grip on her self control just yet. she had to hold it togethor until she was alone. steeling her spine she lifts her head and waits patiantly. Finally she hears heavy footsteps outside of the room and several men talking one of whom is her Uncle. Holding her breath she watches the door.
 
While Emily was upstairs taking her bath, a carriage pulled up in front of the house. A man stepped out from the carriage, he was dressed in the finest hand made clothing. He wore a black over coat which covered his dark grey suit underneath. The gentleman wore a top hat upon his head and was carrying a black doctor's bag in his right hand. He was quickly followed by a second man who was carrying a rather large black case. The two men were greeted at the door after ringing the bell. They were taken into the room where the auction would be going on. The gentleman removed his coat and hat giving them to a young lady. He then sat down in a chair only a few feet away from the stage. This gentleman was well known by many here who greeted him warmly. He was Sir Doctor Charles Arthur Nash, wealthy businessman and physician from London. The man with him and now standing in the back of the room with the case was his aide de camp, Duncan O'Neil.

Charles was here to find himself a new bride. He had foolishly married a woman who was as barren as a desert. She couldn't give him what a man of his stature wanted most, children. They had tried everything under the sun short of witchcraft to get her pregnant, but nothing worked. Charles was very displeased since he had expected her to bare fruit after he planted his seed. Being a doctor, Charles was able to test himself too see it the problem was with him. It turned out that his sperm was full of life and thus his seed should have produced children. Since the trouble wasn't with Charles, it had to be his wife Martha. Charles told Martha that he was going to find a woman who could give him what he wanted. She took this as he was finding himself a whore to knock up. But Charles was going to replace Martha all together. He had already kicked her out of his bedroom and soon enough, she would be kicked out of his life. Replaced by the young lady Charles would buy here today.

Charles was the middle son of Lord Arthur Nash who served along with two of his sons in the Royal Army during the Zulu Wars, one being Charles. The handsome doctor was now 44 years old, but hardly looked his age. He kept himself fit, his dark hair only showed a hint of grey coming in. Charles stood 5'9" tall and weighted 165 lbs. He was every bit the handsome gentleman he seemed, but it wasn't a smart thing to cross him. Charles took a dim light on those who dared to double back on a deal or change it once the deal was made. He also deeply disliked those who would mettle with his affairs. Anyone who dared to cross Charles would suffer greatly once he was done with them.

Charles looked down at a paper that had been handed too him after he entered the room. This paper was a list of the girls being auctioned off tonight. When the night first started, Charles wasn't impressed with the choices. That all changed when the second to the last girl arrived on stage. Charles was stunned by this little red heads beauty. Her little 13 year old body was magnificent, she was perfect in every way. The bidding for Emily started out at 75,000 pounds, but quickly the price was going up. It reached 100,000 pounds with in seconds. Then came 150, 200, 250, 300 and when the auction was over, the winning bidder was paying 730,000 pounds for Emily. Charles had wanted a new bride for himself and he had found the prettiest little lady any man could want. He had expected the cost to be high and Charles was happy to pay the 730,000 pounds which he had brought with him.

Charles and Duncan left the auction room as the last girl came out on stage. They met with Emily's Uncle Theo out in the hallway. Charles had never met Theo face to face although he knew of Theo's reputation. Men like Theo were bad news and Charles normally wouldn't have anything to do with him. But he was Emily's Uncle and Charles did want her very badly. This was one of those cases were you had to pay the devil if you wanted to dance. Duncan stood back while the two other men spoke. He was keeping Charles's money safe until the auction was over. Once the last girl had been sold off, the auctioneer came out. He greeted Charles and congratulation him on the best catch of the night. The men started walking down a long hallway, they talked along the way. Charles said that he had to money in cash, but he wanted to make sure that Emily was in fact a virgin. Since he was a doctor, he could tell by a simple physical examination. Everyone agreed as long as they could be in the room during the exam. This was fine with Charles, he didn't care of they watched what he did too Emily. The auctioneer opened the door and stepped into the office. He was followed by Emily's Uncle Theo and Charles. Duncan would wait outside until the men were ready to exchange the money.

Charles walked up on Emily, he knelt down in front of her smiling. " You are even more pretty now then on stage. " Charles said as he looked Emily up and down. " My name is Charles.......I bought you tonight......I'm a doctor in London and I would like to give you a physical examination before paying for you......I need to know that you're in good health. " Charles added as he stood up then he placed his black bag onto a nearby desk. A young girl brought in a basin of water as Charles opened his bag an asked for Emily to stand and disrobe. Charles had a few tests to run on Emily and once he was happy, they could leave.
 
Emily blushed at the man Charles' comment about her being pretty. She looked from the man in front of her to the other other men in the room. turning bright red as she stands her eyes going from one mans face to the other.Each man seemed to be watching her with differing levels of expectation in there eyes. Looking back at the Dr.

" In .. in front of everyone?" she asks hesitantly. Her Uncle Theo clears his throat before stepping forward and giving her arm a slight pinch. Not hurting her but making her jump into motion as he orders her in a gruff voice.

" Get on with it girl the gents are waiting and i want ta be heading home."

Turning her face away from the men in the room she closes her eyes and takes a deep breath as she lowers the Tulle robe and lays it over the arm of the chair she had been sitting in.

She can hear a general shuffling of feet from the other men in the room.
Emily stood refusing to look at any of the men in the room. The burning behind her eyes growing until she is forced to blink rapidly to avoid shedding unwanted tears. She was embarrassed to be seen completely naked by so many men not to mention her own uncle. Emily begins to chew on her lower lip as she stands there terrified of what was about to happen and what kinds of tests he was wanting to do to her. Her right arm comes up to cover her breasts while her left moves to so that her hand is covering her pubic area from the men's hungry looks.
 
Charles was busy with his bag when Theo came up and pinched Emily. He however had heard Theo's words and turned staring daggers at the man. Once Emily had stripped Charles returned to her, a smile was again on his face at how truly innocent she was. " There's no need to be shy.......No one is going to harm you.......I just want to check you over before handing over the cash I'm paying for you. " Charles spoke in a warm and comforting voice as he again knelt before Emily. He asked that she open her mouth wide, then lift her tongue. Once that was done Charles checked Emily's ears and hair. He ran his hand down her bare back checking her spine. Soon Charles came to areas that he wanted to check and Emily would have to make her hands. " I must check your private areas my dear.......Please remove your hands. " Charles asked Emily in the sweetest voice. He didn't want her to fear him, he wanted her to know that he cared for her.

" The quicker I can get this exam over.......The quicker you can get dome clothes on and we can leave. " Charles said as he placed his right hand gentle against Emily's left cheek. He then waited for Emily to comply with what he was asking.
 
"Yes sir"

Doing as he asks she lets her hands fall to her sides so that they are not in his way. She still hasn't looked at the other men in the room though she is very aware of them being near. Emily had been surprised at how gently the Dr. had touched her. Running his hands over her body expertly but not in a way that made her feel like she was a show pony being examined for purchase.

The thought makes her smile a little and she looks down at the man. Really seeing him for the first time since he walked into the room with the others. She admits to herself that he is a handsome man. Obviously he didn't have any interest in hurting her at least not at the moment.
Visibly flinching at the thought. She blushes and looks away quickly.

" Sorry " she whispers to him in case he noticed the small movement.
Feeling the eyes of the other men on them she peeks towards them,from the corner of her eye. The sight of them makes her want to bolt from the room and just run and run until she can't run anymore. But she knows that isn't an option. Even if it where there was no where she could run too.

She can only hope that this all works out for the best and that this Dr. was as nice and as patient as he seemed at the moment.Shivering slightly she looks down at him again before looking shyly away again.
 
Once Emily dropped her hands, Charles was free to check her small breasts. They were the perfect size for her body and each one felt normal in his hands as he squeezed them lightly. He notice the blush in her cheeks which only made Emily look more innocent. Charles asked Emily to spread her legs just a bit as he ran his hand up the inside of her inner right thigh. His fingers stopped at her budding womanhood. " I'm not going to hurt you Emily....You can trust me. " Charles looked at Emily's face as he spoke. He waited for Emily to do as he had asked, then he let his fingers brush lightly over her pussy lips. Charles told Emily that he need to place a finger inside of her vagina to check and make sure that she was in fact a virgin. He was paying a great deal of money for her being a virgin. Charles let his fingers stroke over Emily's pussy lips until they grew wet. He was then able to push his middle finger up inside of Emily's tight little box.

He smiled warmly at her while this was going on. Charles said that she was a proper young lady and he was proud to have her. His middle finger moved around inside of Emily's pussy until he felt her hymen. Charles with drew his finger and announced that the deal was done. He then told Emily that she could get dressed and once her things were ready they could leave together. Charles stood up and called for Duncan who came in with the large case. The case was placed in the desk with Charles cleaned his hands. Duncan counted out the full 730,000 pounds and once Charles's hand were dried he signed the paper taking ownership of Emily. " If you'll have Emily's things brought down......We'll be on our way. " Charles spoke the the auctioneer who quickly found a girl to do the job asked.
 
Emily closed her eyes tightly as his hands cupped her breasts weighing them in his palm. As warm as she felt she was shocked that her small pink nipples hardened when he gave them a gentle squeeze making her inhale sharply her eyes flying to his face as he asks her to spread her legs.Unable to do anything else and knowing she does as he says. She turns her face away from him and squeezes her eyes shut when she feels his fingers between her thighs. Ashamed to feel her bodies reaction as she feels herself growing wet and slippery as he touches her. biting her lower lip she hears him assure her and she knows he hasn't lied to her yet, though this was the most ashamed she had ever felt in her life. Standing in the center of a room while a man she doesn't know slides his finger into her while her uncle and other men watch. A soft sob escapes her but she catches herself and no tears come. She wants to slam her thighs closed but doesn't move. Knowing the exam would only continue all the longer if she fights against what he was doing. When he withdraws his finger she instantly covers herself with her hands and turns her back towards the other men in the room. Embarrassed to admit even to herself that she didn't find his touch unpleasant.

The young lady who had helped Emily bathe earlier stepped in and handed Emily her satchel along with her own dress. She gave a dramatic wink as she turned and left the room.
Holding her dress in front of her she looks at the men noticing that the auctioneer leaving the room behind the girl. Leaving her with the Dr. his man her Uncle and of course the owner of this establishment.

Unsure if she was to be allowed privacy to get dressed. When her Uncle moves toward her as if to embrace her , Emily jumps back away from him.
" I have nothing to say to you. Nor do i wish to have you touching me in my current state of undress." Stepping further away from him putting the chair she had been sitting in when they entered the room between herself and her Uncle.

Hidden behind the high back of the chair she sets her things down and as quickly as she can she steps into her skirt up over her hips and buttons it before pulling on a white blouse and buttoning up with shaking hands. Feeling some what decent she moves around the chair to site and pull her stalkings on before slipping her small feet into her shoes. She wasn't exactly fit for a ballroom but she was presentable enough for the moment.

She hadn't taken her eyes off her Uncle as he moved closer to the man counting out the money. An amount that had Emily's mouth falling open in aww was passed from one man to the other. She could almost see her Uncle Theo drooling over so much money.
Watching him in disgust she stands with her satchel in her hands. Holding the handle of the small bag with both hands in front of her as she looks from her greedy uncle to the Dr.

The men seemed to have dealt with the issue of the money and her uncle was now fuming that the owner of the establishment had taken ten percent of the money claiming it was his fee for holding the auctions and bringing in the men. Her Uncle couldn't really argue with the man so he kept his mouth shut as he took the rest of the money and shoved it into his own bag.

Turning he looks at Emily again and nods his head curtly towards her.
" you be a good girl now and don't go giving the nice gent any frustrations. ill be sure to tell your sister that you'll be writing home soon."
with that he left leaving Emily alone with the remaining three men. she looks at them her face having gone pale as she nibbles on her lower lip.
She almost called her uncle back into the room. As if his staying any longer would delay her departure with the Dr. and his man.

She was near panic and it showed in her eyes and suddenly pale face. Her chest ached from her heart pounding so rapidly in her chest. She smiles hesitantly at the men trying to look unmoved by all that had taken place. She wasn't entirely sure she was convincing anyone though.
 
Charles was happy that this was over, now he could take Emily home where she could start her new life. He looked at Emily who seemed somewhat out of place. Her actions told Charles that she wasn't happy about this. Charles could understand her feelings, but hat was done was done. He had paid over 700,000 pounds for this lovely young girl and he was taking her home. Emily wasn't going to Charles's main home just yet. They would stay in London for a few days while they got to know each other better. This would give them the chance to become closer without the hassle of having Charles's soon to be ex wife around. Charles was already planning on taking Emily to the theater and to the opera. They would shop the best London stores buying a new wardrobe for Emily. He was going to treat her like a little princess.

Charles closed up his doctors bag then walked over to where Emily was standing. He slowly lowered himself down to one knee in front of her. " I will take good care of you.........You'll see that I'm not going to harm you.........I want to marry you Emily. " Charles spoke softly to Emily then he leaned forward a bit placing a soft kiss upon her lips. He slowly pulled back from the kiss clearly enjoy how soft Emily's lips were. Charles then rose too his feet and held out his right hand towards Emily. " Come my dear......It's time for us to go......We'll be staying in London for a few days. " Charles smiled as he looked down at Emily. She was such a beautiful looking angel and now she was his. Duncan closed up the large case which still had money in it and he grabbed Charles's doctor bag from the desk.
 
Emily was shocked when she heard he intended to marry her. That was the last thing she had ever expected. Blushing prettily she raises her right hand and touch's her fingertips to her lips as she places her hand in his and follows him from the room her bag still clutched in her hand.

She wants to ask him why he would spend so much on buying a wife but when she thought about it, it actually made more since to her to buy a wife than to buy a mistress that one would eventually tire of. Most especially when paying out hundreds of thousands. Peeking up at the man as they walk towards the front door she can't but feel very luck that things turned out the way they had.

She had come here thinking that she would have to give up on having a husband and children and here a man had put out a great deal of money just to make her his. He also seemed like a very nice man. She had to admit she liked the feel of his hand. Even when he was just holding her hand as they left the house.

The girl from upstairs waved as they passed by her and Emily smiled brightly. The deep dimples in her cheeks appearing for the first time in days. Though she was still pale she couldn't say that she was unhappy.
The girl looked a little stunned. But just then there was a high pitched wailing coming from one of the closed doors next to the one that they had exited. Emily could only imagine what was happening to the hapless girl behind the closed door.

Moving closer to the man Charles she tightens her grip on his hand. and her smile fades as they approach the door and it's opened by the same tall thin man who had let her in. The man winked at her and congratulated the Dr. on his purchase. He stood to the side to let them all pass out onto the porch.

The afternoon sunlight hurt her eyes at first and Emily blinks her eyes several times. She had forgotten that it was still daylight it had been so dark in the house once she had left the upstairs bedroom. And the days events seemed to have taken an eternity instead of a few short hours.

Looking up at the Dr. as they walk down the side walk towards a fine looking carriage. Stepping up into the carriage she stops midway up and turns to look at the Dr. and states firmly " I thank you for buying me sir. i just thought i should say that so you would know i am not an ungrateful girl."
 
Charles was beginning to wonder if Emily hated him in some way. She hadn't spoken more then a few words too him. He was sure that none of this was too her liking and this he could understand. Still, Charles hadn't nothing to do with Emily being brought here or the fact that she was being sold. He had come to the auction looking for a young lady who would become his new bride. This he had done once Charles saw the pretty little Emily standing on the stage. Charles knew from the moment that Emily stepped on stage and into the lights, that he needed her. Everything about Emily was perfect, from her little breasts, to her pink little nipples, down to that red patch of hair growing between her legs and finally to Emily's round ass. Charles had fallen in love with Emily upon seeing her and there was no doubt in his mind that she would make a wonderful wife.

It did Charles's heart good too hear Emily finally speak to him. He smiled up at her as she thanked him for buying her while climbing into the carriage. Charles said that Emily was very welcome for her thanks. He followed her into the carriage and sat down beside her. Charles placed his left arm around Emily pulling her close to his side. Duncan placed Charles's doctor bag on the seat acrossed from where Charles & Emily were sitting. The case holding the money was slid into the carriage on the floor just in front of the couple. " Duncan......Please tell the driver to take us shopping......My darling Emily needs a new wardrobe. " Charles said to Duncan who bowed while saying yes sir. Duncan then closed the door and climbed up on top of the carriage with the driver. He directed the driver to head for the women's clothing stores in London. The driver got the two horses moving and the carriage pulled back out into the street. During the trip into downtown London, Charles kept Emily close. He told her that she would have only the best of everything. Charles would make sure that Emily was treated like the lady she was born to be. He asked some questions about her family during the trip as well. As it turned out, Charles had known Emily's father.

Charles told Emily that he had often had a cup of tea, or glass of brandy at the Explorers Club in London with her father. The Explorers Club was a private club for the wealthy who enjoyed big game hunting. Many of these same men had also served the Queen in the military. Charles expressed his sadness over Emily's fathers death. Today had been the first time that Charles had met Theo face to face. Charles knew that Theo had destroyed some of the business that Emily's father had built and lost the rest gambling. He knew that Theo was deep in debt and that the money Charles had paid for Emily would clear up that debt. Theo would still have a great sum of money left over. But knowing Theo as Charles did, it wouldn't be long before Theo was ass deep in debt again.

Charles made sure not to talk about Theo to Emily. He had seen how she reacted towards him and didn't want her anymore upset. Charles spoke of good things, things that they would be doing over the next few days. He told her that they would be staying in London before returning to his manor house outside of London. Charles told Emily how they were going to the theater tonight and the opera tomorrow night. This would give them the chance to get to know each other better. Charles placed his right hand upon Emily's chin turning her head towards him. He leaned down and placed a kiss upon her lips. " You are the most beautiful young lady I've ever seen. " Charles said softly after the kiss was slowly broken.

It wasn't long before the carriage pulled up in front of one of London's finest dress shops. Duncan jumped down and opened the door as Charles stepped out of the carriage. He then turned raising his right hand towards Emily to help her out. " My beautiful little angel will only be dressed in the best......Only the finest cloth will touch your silky skin. " Charles announced as Duncan who stood just behind the doctor agreed while smiling.
 
Emily blushed deeply as she took Charles' hand and stepped down from the carriage. " You are going to spoil me. I don't need much really. " She kept hold of his hand as she stood beside him and looked from Charles to Duncan's faces. " Honestly Charles." She was smiling as she looked at them. Her cheeks pink and her eyes twinkling. Emily couldn't remember the last time she had enjoyed an afternoon half so much as she had this one.
Walking with the men into the shop she felt like a fairy princess being escorted about by her night in shinning armoure and his trusty side kick, And she told the men so.

They where greeted by a lovely older woman with blond hair piled high on her head and wearing a lovely lavender day gown. Emily hadn't seen such lovely gowns and fabrics since her father had died and she and her sister had moved in with their aunt and uncle. Looking to Charles as if silently asking for permission to look around she hesitantly released his hand to step to a table with yards and yards and yards of fabric. She gently ran her finger tips over the fabrics from simple cottons with pretty designs to the most lovely of satins and silks.

" Charles it is all so very lovely. How will we ever choose from them all?" turning she looks up at him as she once again begins to worry at her lower lip. She smiles at him and her deep dimples appear once more.
She knew that she had truly been very lucky today. Things could have turned out so much worse for her. But she had this wonderful man that wanted her and thought she was beautiful and she would be a wife after all. Not to mention how kind he is or how easy it was to be at ease with him. Already she had grown accustomed to his touch and missed having his arm around her.

The older lady fluttered about suggesting differant patterns that would look "just lovely" on Emily. She continued to look to Charles as she picked out several patterns and designs and differant cloths for several gowns before she was ushered to the back of the store to try on several pre-made gowns. She chose several day gowns and three evening gowns before she was able to escape the woman and make her way back to Charles.

Going to him she placed her hand in his and leaned her head against his arm " It's so much more exciting to buy clothes than i remembered it being" She whispers to him as if admitting to a horrible sin. Feeling silly looks away from him towards the woman that was comming towards them with a mountaiin of dress boxes.

" My word i didn't realise how much i had gotten!!" She was shocked and a little emberassed as she looked at all the boxes.
The woman set the boxes on the counter and laughed loudly.
" child it's our duty as wemon to let our men spoil us with pretty gowns and trinkets. I know wemon who would have ordered three times what you did." with that she winked dramaticly at Emily and gave Charles the bill.

Emily thought that perhaps she should offer to help carry the boxes out of the shop but it seemed that Duncan was already ontop of things. Her empty tummy chose that momment to complain rather loudly about its lack of sustanace. Emily's lips form a small "O" as he cheeks turn bright red. Covering her belly with her left hand she raises her right to cover her mouth as she begins to laugh. " i'm very sorry." she says between giggles. " I am affraid that i was unable to eat the cheese and bread they offered me today. With everything that was happening i just couldn't seem to make myself eat anything." She was still giggling as she tried to explain with out revealing to much infront of the owner of the store.
 
The driver of the carriage & Duncan made sure that all of Emily's boxes were placed neatly inside or strapped on top of the carriage. Charles took Emily by the hand and led her back to the carriage. Once they were inside and everything was packed, the driver headed for Charles's home in the City of London. A short ride later, the carriage pulled up in front of a lovely brownstone home which was only a few blacks away from Buckingham Palace. Charles again stepped from the carriage first then offered his hand to help Emily out. " The driver and Duncan will take care of your packages.........Let's get some dinner then you can bath and pick out a pretty dress to wear when we go to the theater tonight. " Charles spoke as he led Emily up a few steps and into his second house.

Charles bought the brownstone some years back. He used it at times when he just didn't want to be around Martha. Charles would tell Emily all about Martha and his plan for the annulment of their marriage. The annulment was already underway and would take effect in just over a week from now. Martha had learned of her husbands plans and quickly made plans of her own. Along with the head maid of the manor house who's name was Helen Burch, Martha would poison Charles before their marriage ended. Upon his death, Martha would get everything that Charles owned......including Emily. Martha hadn't met the girl who was to replace her, but she already had plans for her as well. To Martha, Emily was no different then a common street whore. It didn't matter whether or not the girl had been born into a wealthy family. Martha knew that Charles was buying her from an auction house which was also a whorehouse. Miss. Burch would help in teaching this harlot who and what she really was. Martha was already planning on whoring Emily to the men who worked on the estate which surrounded the manor. Once Martha & Miss Burch were done with Charles's new little toy. They would dump Emily on the East End of London where she would have to fend for herself. A single girl dumped on the streets of London had little chance of finding a real job. If she wanted to survive, she would almost have to become a prostitute.

Even while Charles & Emily were sitting down to a fabulous meal which had been prepared by Mrs. Fields who worked at the brownstone as Charles's cook, Martha & Miss Burch were plotting. They were disusing the best type of poison to use to which Miss Burch proposed using hemlock. Arsenic had been talked about first, but was dismissed when hemlock was brought up. Miss Burch would take care of poisoning Charles herself which would leave Martha out of the picture. Martha would see that Miss Burch was paid quite well for her services.

Unlike Miss Burch, Mrs. Fields was loyal to Charles. She was a kind older lady who welcomed Emily with open arms. Mrs. Fields didn't like Martha and never got along with her. Besides Mrs. Fields, one other younger woman worked at the brownstone, her name was Mary Tate. She was a pretty blonde haired girl who was this houses only maid. Mary also welcomed Emily to the house with open arms. It had been such a long time since either Mrs. Fields or Mary had seen their master looking so happy as when he walked into the house with Emily in hand. While Charles & Emily ate their dinner, Mary was hard at work readying Emily's bath and unpacking some of those fine dresses. Mary was from those same hard streets where Martha was planning on dumping Emily. She was luck enough to escape after Charles healed her wounds when she was in the hospital. Mary had become a whore like many other girls on the streets. But once night she was brutally beaten, robbed and raped. She ended up in the hospital where Charles cared for her. Once Mary was ready to leave, Charles offered Mary a job working at his brownstone as a maid. Charles had given Mary a second chance at a better life and she took it.

Once the meal was over, Mary came and announced that Emily's bath was ready. Charles retired to his study for a brandy & cigar while Mary was helping Emily. He would soon go upstairs, wash up and put on his best white tie and tails. The theater awaited and so did a night of discovery for Emily. Normally a gentleman would wait before taking his young lady. But Charles couldn't wait to bed his new beauty, thus Charles would make a woman out of Emily tonight.
 
Emily stepped out of her second bath of the day though this one was much more pleasant than the last she is definitely feeling well scrubbed and clean. She sits by a low burning fire while Mary brushes her hair until its dry and shinning in the soft glow of the fire and lamps scattered about the room. With her hair dry she is lead to the center of the room and Mary assists her into a white and gold satin evening gown. The neck line very low exposing a small amount of cleavage and the tops of her white shoulders.
The silk hose felt heavenly as they slide over her small feet and up over her calves up to the middle of her thighs where they are held in place by a white garterbelt. Placing her small feet into matching shoes,Emily turns and looks at herself in a large mirror and is startled to see a lovely young woman looking back at her.

The girl Mary guids Emily to the vanity where she sits down and watches in the mirror as Mary goes about styling Emily's firey red locks into some simblance of control usuing pins and combs to pile the thick mass at the back of Emily's head with small curls falling down at her temples and behind her small ears. Emily smiles as she looks at Mary in the mirror and thanks her for her help.

Standing Emily leaves the room and heads down the stairs with Mary just behind her. The girls presance is a comfort as Emily reaches the bottom of the stairs and Mary shows her to Charles's study. Emily looks down at herself , smoothing her hands over the skirt of her dress and tries to calm her nerves before entering the room.

Lifting her chin and pulling her shoulders back Emily takes a deep breath and enters the room her eyes searching for Charles. Finding him she smiles and walks towards him and makes a small circul infront of him showing off her new gown for him." I had a difficult time deciding which pretty dress to wear tonight. I hope that you approve?" she asks as she comes to a stop infront of him her heart beating rapidly beneath her breast as she looks up at him.
 
While Emily was busy with her bath, Charles had gone upstairs took his bath, changed into finest suit then headed back down to wait in the study. The wait wasn't a long one before Emily appeared looking very much like an angel. Upon hearing Emily's voice, Charles turned his head towards her then rose too his feet. Charles was in awe at how truly beautiful Emily was. She was every inch the lady she was born to be. " There are no words to describe how lovely you look Emily. " Charles said as he walked over to Emily. He cupped her face in his hands then leaned down placing a sweet and much longer kiss upon her lips. Charles looked behind Emily as he pulled away from the kiss. Mary was standing just inside the doorway to the study. Charles mouthed the words thank you too her and she bowed too him. Mary smiled as she turned way and went about her work. It made Mary feel good too know that Doctor Nash had found the lady that he deserved and not that shrew had was married to now.

Charles took Emily's arms and wrapped it around his own. " Let's go my dear Emily. " He led Emily out of the study then out of the house and to the waiting carriage. 20 minutes later, the carriage pulled up in front of the theater. The doorman rushed over and opened the door allowing Charles to step out then offer his hand to Emily. The sidewalk of the theater was full of wealthy people who were expecting too see Martha coming out of the carriage. They were surprised too see this beautiful looking young lady take Charles's hand and step down. Here Emily would met many of London's well to do. She even was introduced to Prince Albert who would one day become King Edward VII and Princess Alice who was one of Albert's sisters. They both had commented on how lovely Emily looked and Alice said how much she admired Emily's beautiful dress. Charles proudly led Emily into the theater and to his private box. The show that they were seeing tonight was one of Charles's favorites, H.M.S. Pinafore a musical comedy. During the performance, Charles held on to Emily's hand.
