A Muse in Subservience

Hitomi believed her future was secure. Living together with her boyfriend, the couple had already finalized their plans for marriage and looked forward to a life built on love and stability. However, that certainty shatters in an instant when she is abruptly taken away and forced onto an auction block. Without her knowledge or consent, her partner’s hidden financial obligations have transformed her into mere collateral, leaving her fate entirely in the hands of strangers willing to pay the price. The winning bid comes from an unexpected buyer: a celebrated author renowned for his provocative erotic novels. Rather than seeking simple companionship, he acquires Hitomi with a specific artistic purpose in mind. Struggling to find the spark for his upcoming project, he views her as the ideal muse to breathe life into his latest manuscript. Thrust into an unfamiliar world where her autonomy has been stripped away, Hitomi must navigate this jarring new reality under the watchful eye of a man who sees her primarily as a source of creative inspiration. As the boundaries between ownership and artistry blur, she faces a profound internal struggle, questioning whether she can ever truly surrender to a life where she is regarded not as an equal partner, but as someone else's property.
