Losing her grandmother, Lea was betrayed by her Aunt Estrella. Instead of introducing her to a work like what they talked about, she was sold in the underground auction. "Five billion dollars going thrice, Sold!" And with that amount of money, her life now belongs to that man. Aiden Lazarus, a person known for his cold personality. Not giving any hint of care toward his surroundings. Raising her chin to meet his face, he let out a smirk that soon disappeared after his words. "So, if you cherish that head of yours, don't let me down. Be the best bride you can ever be"

Chapter 1 Prologue

"Five billion dollars going once, "

"Five billion dollars going twice, "

"Five billion dollars going thrice, "

"Sold!"

***

It was cold... the air feels as if it is sipping deep inside my skin. I wonder why it feels like this. I tried to move but in my luck, I was chained for the reason that I am not sure of. My hands... it is tied from the back. My knees are bending as it feels the coldness of the ground I am sitting on.

Where am I? Why am I here?

I didn't find any answer about my question.

Somehow, pair of hands then touches me. It grabs me without even thinking whether I would be hurt or not. It seems like that person didn't care about any of it.

"Hmm!!"

Ahh!

I shouted, surprised on how the blinds was suddenly removed from my eyes.

The crowd keeps cheering. It became louder and louder as it echoed in my ears. It was like they saw some good thing. I was overwhelmed by the light that is why I narrowed my eyes just to adjust my vision and there... I saw how a thick pole welcomed me together with countless numbers of people cheering from afar. There are many of them.

"Woooaahhh"

"Wahhhhhhh"

"I want her!"

"So gorgeous!!"

"Damn that was crazy"

"Just the first part yet it is like this?"

"Wonderful, I will be bidding for her"

I can't tell where I should look, countless eyes are staring at me as if they wanted to engulf me whole. The way they look, I hate it. I don't know where I should land my sight but the only thing I know is that... I am trapped inside a cage that is a hundred times bigger than the cage they use to trap a bird.

My eyes wide open in realisation. My clothes are different to the one I am wearing when I came with Aunt Estrella. This dress is thinner than the thinnest cloth I ever had in the house! If my grandmother would see me looking like this, surely... she wouldn't like this! My skin is visible as if this cloth is made up of net or sort. Luckily the one around my chest down to my legs are slightly thicker but the way I am dressed up, it makes me sick out of humiliation.

I closed my eyes trying to calm myself as I tried to cover this chest of mine but failed.

"My, my, no need to be so energetic. As the first item of our real evening's event, let's start our bid at the price of ten million dollars"

Another sound of the crowd cheering was heard.

What a large sum of money. Even father didn't have a chance holding a money that is tenth of that value she had said. I look down.

Am I really being sold?

"Number one hundred fifty, twenty five million dollars!"

"Stealed by number sixty five for twenty six million dollars!"

Why are they even bidding such a large sum of money? Just to... Buy me? How... how did it even came to this?

"One hundred million dollars for number eighty nine!"

They bid and bid for who knows how long it has been. As time passed by, the bid became larger and larger until it hit a billion dollars.

Why are they even wasting money just like that?

I was mad at the thoughts of how that kind of money was tossed like a piece of coin. If... only I have that kind of money.. then surely... grandma...

Hah...

Everyone is cheering. Everyone is leaving that kind of tone. They are all excited. They are all evergetic and looking forward to the one who will eventually own me. It is as if the one they are buying is some limited edition item of a known company. Hah... So there are really people with this kind of attitude. Selling people without their consent... Isn't it illegal?

I didn't mind hearing their words and cheers as what happened to me really hasn't sinked in on my mind yet. I would rather believe that it is some kind of a dream where I can still eventually wake up!

"Five billion dollars"

Everyone was left silent. The cheering and the loud shout that was making my ear hurt for so long suddenly became as quiet as a night time in the middle of the sea.

I was taken aback when I heard that bid. Is he insane? That kind of money? Is he trying to throw his fortune just like that?!

"F-Five billion dollars going once! "

Even the woman that was speaking and leading that bidding got startled after hearing his bid. From ten million dollars to five billion dollars.

This... is... insane.

"Five billion dollars going twice"

No one even dared to steal that bid. Are they really going to let him buy me like some kind of a thing?

"Five billion dollars going trice, "

"Sold!"

And I never know that with that one word, my life would change.

"Is this her? Well, I can say that she look much prettier close up"

I was still inside this cage. Not knowing how I would react, I remained silent. Doing something that is against their wants would surely do me no good.

Once I saw Aunt Estrella, I will surely ask about what this thing is. Why am I here... Everything doesn't really make sense. This is not what we talked about!. Who would have even thought that it would end up just like this?

The sound of the chain was heard as I knew that the person that came is opening this big cage I am placed in.

"Can you get her out of that thing? I already sent the money, did I?"

"Yes sir, we are deeply thankful for your purchase. The document is already scheduled to be sent to you this evening. Regarding the one you bought, you have all the means to do what you wanted to do about it"

In the corner of my eyes I saw how the man with a somewhat muscular built lean to see me clearly. He is not thin for a guy yet he is also not that fat or muscular. He is someone in between. Just like a model in fashion magazines. So he is the one who bought me huh...

"You, what is your name ?"

He asked politely but aggressively. I had no choice but to answer him.

"Lea, my name is Lea"

"Lea..."

He mumbled as he stretched his hand to touch my chin. Even if I am not blind folded and can now speak freely, my hands are still tied. Even if I tried to move I surely can't do any changes.

"What a beautiful name. Now, don't let me down... be the most beautiful bride you can ever be"

And the only thing I can see was his smiling face with a hint of smirk before fog suddenly appeared out of nowhere. And so, my eyes finally close as my whole consciousness falls in the depth of darkness.

Too Late: The Spare Daughter Escapes Him

SHANA GRAY
4.3

I died on a Tuesday. It wasn't a quick death. It was slow, cold, and meticulously planned by the man who called himself my father. I was twenty years old. He needed my kidney to save my sister. The spare part for the golden child. I remember the blinding lights of the operating theater, the sterile smell of betrayal, and the phantom pain of a surgeon's scalpel carving into my flesh while my screams echoed unheard. I remember looking through the observation glass and seeing him-my father, Giovanni Vitiello, the Don of the Chicago Outfit-watching me die with the same detached expression he used when signing a death warrant. He chose her. He always chose her. And then, I woke up. Not in heaven. Not in hell. But in my own bed, a year before my scheduled execution. My body was whole, unscarred. The timeline had reset, a glitch in the cruel matrix of my existence, giving me a second chance I never asked for. This time, when my father handed me a one-way ticket to London-an exile disguised as a severance package-I didn't cry. I didn't beg. My heart, once a bleeding wound, was now a block of ice. He didn't know he was talking to a ghost. He didn't know I had already lived through his ultimate betrayal. He also didn't know that six months ago, during the city's brutal territory wars, I was the one who saved his most valuable asset. In a secret safe house, I stitched up the wounds of a blinded soldier, a man whose life hung by a thread. He never saw my face. He only knew my voice, the scent of vanilla, and the steady touch of my hands. He called me Sette. Seven. For the seven stitches I put in his shoulder. That man was Dante Moretti. The Ruthless Capo. The man my sister, Isabella, is now set to marry. She stole my story. She claimed my actions, my voice, my scent. And Dante, the man who could spot a lie from a mile away, believed the beautiful deception because he wanted it to be true. He wanted the golden girl to be his savior, not the invisible sister who was only ever good for her spare parts. So I took the ticket. In my past life, I fought them, and they silenced me on an operating table. This time, I will let them have their perfect, gilded lie. I will go to London. I will disappear. I will let Seraphina Vitiello die on that plane. But I will not be a victim. This time, I will not be the lamb led to slaughter. This time, from the shadows of my exile, I will be the one holding the match. And I will wait, with the patience of the dead, to watch their entire world burn. Because a ghost has nothing to lose, and a queen of ashes has an empire to gain.

"And I want him to see what he lost." ••••*••••*••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married to the love of her life in Vegas. Instead, she walked in on her twin sister riding her fiance. One drink at the bar turned to ten. One drunken mistake turned into reality. And one stranger's offer turned into a contract that she signed with shaking hands and a diamond ring. Alaric Ashford is the devil in a tailored Tom Ford suit. Billionaire CEO, brutal, possessive. A man born into an empire of blood and steel. He also suffers from a neurological condition-he can't feel. Not objects, not pain, not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and he feels everything. And now he owns her. On paper and in his bed. She wants him to ruin her. Take what no one else could have. He wants control, obedience... revenge. But what starts as a transaction slowly turns into something Meadow never saw coming. Obsession, secrets that were never meant to surface, and a pain from the past that threatens to break everything. Alaric doesn't share what's his. Not his company. Not his wife. And definitely not his vengeance.
