The Noction Auction
Title: The Noction Auction
Author: siriala
Pairing: Jensen/Jared
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 11,500
Warnings: I tried to keep it pretty light and fun but still, there's reference to human trafficking on a planet that is all about auctions, virgin bottom!Jared forced into marriage, a particular form of addiction (of which the fic doesn't pretend to offer a real depiction at all), and a weird justice system.
Prompt: #56 When Mary Smith’s corrupt, debt-ridden brother drags her to a seedy pub to sell her virtue to the highest bidder, Alasdair Thornham leaps to the rescue. Of course the marquess is far from perfect husband material. Although he is exceedingly handsome, with a perfect, strong body, chiseled jaw, and piercing green eyes, Alasdair is also too fond of opium, preferring delirium to reality. Still, he has come to Mary’s aid, and now she intends to return the favor. She will show him that he is not evil, just troubled.
Mary was a damsel in need of a hero, but Alasdair’s plan is shortsighted. He never foresaw her desire to save him from himself. Alasdair is quite at home in his private torment, until this angel proves that a heart still beats in his broken soul. The devil may have kept her from hell, but will Mary’s good intentions lead them back to the brink-or to heaven in each other’s arms?
Summary: Noction was supposed to be a simple trip for Jared, not a place to be sold and married to a dashing but shifty stranger.
