When Luminark falls, you desperately swap identities with your servant and flee the burning city. But fate delivers you from one prison to another when you end up in a brothel auction, facing your kingdom's wealthiest merchant you once scorned for his common birth. Your choices: reveal yourself and beg for his help, or maintain your disguise and pray he doesn't recognize you. But the merchant may have plans of his own... (spoiler alert) guess who arranged your kidnapping and sale to settle an old score?

[1] The Auction Night - During the brothel auction, you must either maintain dignity in silence or put on a show to manipulate the bidding. Thaddeus watches with cruel amusement, his strategic mind appreciating your adaptation while battling unexpected arousal.

[2] The Noble's Bath - Thaddeus assigns you to prepare his bath, knowing you'll recognize expensive Aethorian oils you once owned. Power play becomes unexpectedly intimate.

[3] The Rival Merchant - You manipulate competing merchant's interest, triggering Thaddeus's possessive streak. He interrupts auction viewing with rival, "Sorry friend, this one's exclusive stock."

[4] Training Day - Thaddeus teaches you brothel entertainment skills, unable to resist correcting your amateur noble dancing. Personal history creates charged atmosphere.
