Kelly stood perfect still, the drugs and conditioning have long since burned out any semblance of free will from her.

In front of her stood Mac, the man that had transformed her from a tourist to the back waters country she now call home, into a living sex doll.

She’d been standing in the corner of the back alley for almost half an hour, though she didn’t care, Mac had told her to strike a pose, and she’d complied.

The sound of hurried footsteps echoed off the walls and a second man rush into view, panting slightly as he came to stand beside Mac.

“’bout time you got her.” Mac said gruffly.

“Yeah, sorry about that. Thomson gave me the run around for twenty minutes and only then admitted he didn’t have the product.

Mac rolled his eyes and shook his head, “Don’t know why you deal with him, you know I’ve got what you want.”

“Yeah, but you charge too much.” the man said and shrugged his shoulders.

Mac just brushed it off, “I don’t charge too much, I deliver quality.” he replied and waved over towards her.

The man whistled and smiled, “Well I can’t argue with you there. Where did you pick this one up?”

“At a club, dumb slut though she was getting ecstasy, by the time she realized what was happening it was way to late.”

“Any complications? Anyone looking for her?”

“Nah, you heard about that club fire three months ago?”

“Yeah.”

“She and a dozen others were ‘officially’ in it. Besides… take a look at her, you think she looked like this before? I bet I could get her to fuck her boyfriend and he’d never recognize her now she’d had so much work done.”

The man nodded, “And you’ve got new documentation for her?”

“Of course. New ID, new passport, new drivers license even.”

The man nodded and then crossed his arms, “And what’s she going to cost me?”

“400k.” Mac said flatly.

The other man chocked, “400k! That’s robbery!”

Mac held up his hand and shook his head, “Don’t start with me. I’m only doing this as a professional courtesy because you said you were desperate and needed, and I quote, a stacked blonde ASAP. She’s already earned me 50k just in the first month she’s been working… and I’ve already had two offers over 500k from her regulars, so 400k is a steal and you know it.”

The man sighed and his shoulders slumped, “Alright, alright…” the man said holding up his hands in defeat, “…fucking overcharging a desperate man.” he finished under his breath before pulling out his phone and arranging the payment.

The two men made some small talk for a moment while Mac awaited the confirmation, when it arrived he motioned for her to come over to them.

“Kelly, this is Don.” Mac said, pointing toward the man she’d just been sold to, “He’s your new owner. Follow his instructions or he’s going to send you back to me to… take care of the problem.”

Kelly didn’t need the threat, she couldn’t have disobeyed even if she wanted to, “Of course Sir, I understand.”

That was what was so insidious about what Mac had done to her, it wasn’t that the drugs and conditioning had made her obedient… they had made her want to be obedient.

Don wrapped his arm around her waist and then lead her away to whatever new life awaited her, but all she wanted was for the next command to be uttered so she could obey.
