Siri

There is no way I ever tell him who I am. The moment I do that, I lose everything. He can yell, scream, beat the shit out of me if he wants to, that’s not a question I’m going to answer.

His fists are clenched, but he’s not threatening me. His anger is directed at the people who invaded his home, stole his sense of security and superiority in gunfire. I guess he doesn’t like to feel vulnerable, or weak, or be at the mercy of unknown forces. I’d point the irony out to him, but something tells me he’s already aware of it.

“You should sell me,” I tell him. “Virtual auction. No pictures. Highest bidder wins.”

“What? Why?”

I can’t help the pitying tone which sneaks into my voice. He really thought he was in control. Men always do. With their big muscles, and their hard cocks, and their total lack of morals, they think they rule the world, turning women into products. In the end, they’re nothing more than tools.

“Why? Because that’s what you do,” I say. “You sell women. And it’s time I found a buyer.”

I see him tensing up. He doesn’t like this. He’s confused. He’s off balance. He’s not used to being on the back foot and I can see how much he hates it. That’s why I’m giving him an out.

“Get rid of me. Make your money and be done with me. I’m betting there’s already an offer waiting for you.”

He kills the engine completely and just lets the boat drift. There’s no lights in this thing. There’s not even a below deck. We’re completely exposed, and drifting further out into the ocean all the time. I hope he’s as good a sailor as he is a pilot, or he’s going to get us both killed when we hit open water and face the wrath of Poseidon.

“What do you think you’re doing, Siri?” His voice is calm and dangerous.

“I’m offering you the most logical resolution to this situation,” I tell him. “I’m telling you to do what you were going to do all along anyway.”

“My home was just raided. We could have both been killed…”

“You could have been killed,” I correct him.

“Not you?”

“No. I’m too valuable,” I sigh. “Listen. You wanted to go to Athens. I told you not to. Now I’m telling you to check your email as soon as you can, and take the offer you find there. You can refuse to listen to me again and take your chance with the inevitable men with guns if you like.”

“That isn’t how this works,” he growls.

“It’s not?”

“No,” he says. “You don’t determine your buyer. Hell, there was no way for you to even know you were going to be on the market…”

He trails off as the cogs in his mind start to whirr. Oh, yeah, little bits and pieces are starting to fall into place for him now.

“Or did you,” he says, his dark eyes narrowed on me. “Did you, somehow… some-fucking-way, manage to get yourself picked up and taken to me?”

“That seems unlikely,” I deadpan.
