@Someone here’s an actual definition of slavery from a reputable source (Cambridge dictionary);

“the practice of legally owning other people who are forced to work for or obey you:
the abolition of slavery William Wilberforce campaigned for the abolition of slavery.
abolish slavery
Those states still had slavery in 1865.

the condition of being legally owned by someone else and forced to work for or obey them:
be sold into slavery Millions of Africans were sold into slavery.
These kids are victims. This is no better than slavery.”

This is NOT slavery. He is imprisoned. Not enslaved. Slaves were and are not treated as well as he is. Slaves were forced to kill their own kids, watch their r*ped kids give birth, and decapitate their kids. 

Do NOT say this bullsh*t again. I am black and have not experienced slavery personally (fortunately), but have experienced severe race inspired hate crimes that have left me permanently disabled. 

Chronically done with all this bullshit

I also don't understand why so many straight women read BL... genuinely confused because there's also a a lot of them bragging about it for some reason?

@Ren I completely agree with you, I am sorry for what has happened to you, and I agree that slavery should not be joked upon.

My curiosity pushed me to do further  research, and I would say that we both were right in different ways.
The Cambridge Dictionary says that:

-Modern slavery is the condition of being forced by threats or violence to work for little or no pay, and of having no power to control what work you do or where you do it:
Modern slavery includes domestic slavery, forced sex work, and forced participation in crime such as cannabis production.

-Slaveryis the condition of being legally owned by someone else and forced to work for or obey them.

-Imprisonment: The legal act to imprison or to put someone in prison for something they have done (running away is NOT illegal so he has to right to imprison him, but in this case (ignoring that the fact we are now discussing is a piece of fiction) is false Imprisonment, the difference is that it's illegal, in either cases the captor shouldn't AND mustn't rape the captured since it goes beyond human autonomy and authority over themselves, in short words it goes against human right, something that a captured has, even though legally minimal.
By this logic, the right words to describe this situation is False Imprisonment and Sexual slavery. I am sorry if this reply may make you feel uncomfortable, if you wish i will completely delete the comment, and i have no bad intentions such as being mean to you or to anyone who has a "different opinion". I might be wrong, this is OBVIOUS NOT my intention about such a delicate thing, I am always open to know new things and change.
