SOLD TO A MAFIA AT SIXTEEN

As the sun began to set, casting a warm orange glow over the landscape, an elegant woman stood before the grand entrance of a magnificent mansion. Her silver hair was styled in a sleek bob, and her piercing green eyes sparkled with a mix of determination and apprehension. She was dressed in a tailored black suit, her high heels clicking on the marble floor as she shifted her weight.

By her side stood a young girl, no more than sixteen years old. The girl's long, curly brown hair cascaded down her back, and her bright brown eyes looked up at the mansion with a mix of wonder and trepidation. She was dressed in a simple yet elegant white dress, her feet clad in a pair of worn-out sneakers.

The woman's eyes were fixed on the mansion's entrance, her gaze unwavering as she seemed to steel herself for what lay ahead. The girl, on the other hand, couldn't help but look around, her eyes taking in the opulent surroundings. She glanced up at her grandmother, a questioning look on her face. written by Isabella

The woman's face softened, and she placed a reassuring hand on the girl's shoulder. "It's going to be okay, dear," she said, her voice low and soothing.

The girl nodded, though her eyes still looked uncertain. The woman took a deep breath, then stepped forward, her heels clicking on the marble floor. The girl followed closely behind, her eyes fixed on her grandmother's back as they approached the mansion's entrance.

The mansion loomed before them, its grandeur and opulence a testament to the wealth and power of its owner. The high walls that surrounded the estate were topped with razor wire, a subtle yet menacing reminder of the dangers that lay within.

As they approached the entrance, a massive iron gate slid open with a soft hum, revealing a winding driveway that led to the mansion's front door. The gate was operated by a remote control, a small device that fit neatly in the palm of one's hand.

The mansion itself was a masterpiece of modern architecture, with sleek lines and curved surfaces that seemed to defy gravity. The exterior walls were made of gleaming white marble, adorned with intricate carvings and ornate details that sparkled in the sunlight.

As they stepped inside, the sound of soft music and the gentle hum of air conditioning enveloped them, a soothing balm for the senses. The interior of the mansion was just as impressive as the exterior, with lavish furnishings and decorations that seemed to have been plucked straight from the pages of a luxury lifestyle magazine.written by Isabella

A sweeping staircase curved upward from the foyer, disappearing into the upper floors of the mansion. The walls were adorned with expensive artwork, and the floors were covered in plush carpets that felt like silk beneath their feet.

Despite its opulence, however, the mansion seemed to exude an aura of menace, a sense of foreboding that lingered just beneath the surface. It was as if the very walls were watching them, waiting for them to make a wrong move.

The old lady stood tall, her eyes fixed on the mansion before them, while her granddaughter clung to her hand, her eyes wide with fear and uncertainty. The little girl's gaze darted back and forth, taking in the opulent surroundings, and her voice trembled as she asked, "Grandma, why are we here?"

The old lady's face softened, and she smiled reassuringly at her granddaughter. "Don't worry, dear," she said, her voice gentle. "You will know soon." Her eyes seemed to cloud over for a moment, and her smile faltered, but she quickly regained her composure.

The little girl looked up at her grandmother, her eyes searching for answers. She seemed to sense that something was amiss, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what it was. She looked around nervously, taking in the grandeur of the mansion, and wondered what they were doing in such a place.

As they stood there, the sound of footsteps echoed from within the mansion, growing louder with each passing moment. The little girl's grip on her grandmother's hand tightened, and she looked up at her with a mixture of fear and trepidation. "Grandma, what's going on?" she whispered, her voice barely audible.

As the old lady and her granddaughter stood before the mansion, a figure emerged from the shadows upstairs. He stood at the railing, his eyes fixed intently on the pair below.

The man was breathtakingly handsome, with chiseled features and piercing blue eyes that seemed to see right through them. His dark hair was perfectly messy, and his sharp jawline was accentuated by a hint of stubble. A small, charming smile played on his lips, but it did little to ease the sense of intimidation that radiated from him.

He was dressed in a tailored black suit that fit him perfectly, showcasing his broad shoulders and lean physique. A crisp white shirt and a slim black tie added to his air of sophistication, but it was his eyes that truly commanded attention. They seemed to bore into those he looked at, as if daring them to cross him. written by Isabella

The air seemed to thicken as he stood there, his presence commanding attention. The old lady's eyes flickered upward, her gaze meeting his for a brief moment before she looked away, her expression unreadable. The granddaughter, however, couldn't help but stare, her eyes wide with a mix of fear and fascination.

The little girl, Violet, flinched in fear as she met eyes with the mafia man, Shawn. She quickly hid behind her grandmother, her eyes wide with terror. Shawn's expression was cold and calculating, his deep voice firm as he asked, "Why are you here?"

Violet's grandmother, her face twisted with desperation, replied, "I brought my granddaughter to you." She tried to drag Violet from behind her, but the little girl held tight, her eyes fixed on Shawn with fear.

Shawn's look didn't change, but a hint of amusement danced in his eyes as Violet's grandmother continued, "Please give me the money, and my granddaughter will be yours forever."

A smirk curved Shawn's lips as he replied, "Sure, I can see you are desperate for the money." He snapped his fingers, and one of his men rushed to him, holding a big brown envelope. Shawn took the envelope and threw it to Violet's grandmother, who rushed to grab it with excitement. "Remember the deal, if you don't pay up in time, you will never see your granddaughter again," Shawn warned, his voice firm.

Violet's grandmother nodded eagerly, her eyes shining with greed. "Yes, I know, thank you very much," she said, clutching the envelope tightly. Shawn lit a cigarette, his eyes never leaving Violet's face.

Violet, sensing her grandmother's betrayal, sobbed, holding tight to her grandmother's shirt. "Grandma, please don't leave me here," she pleaded, her voice shaking with fear.

Violet's grandmother pushed her away, her face cold and unyielding. "I am tired of you," she spat, her voice venomous. "Your parents abandoned you with me to go enjoy their lives elsewhere. I have tried enough; I need a life. You see this money; it's going to change my entire life... I got bad men because of you; nothing good comes my way anymore since the day your useless parents abandoned you to me."

Violet's sobs increased, her body shaking with fear and despair. "Please, don't leave me here," she pleaded, her voice barely audible. "I promise to be a good granddaughter."

Violet's grandmother scoffed, her face twisted with contempt. "You are a bad omen," she spat. "I am happy that I finally get rid of you. Now I get my life back. This is your new home, and your new master now. Don't worry, you will be treated nice here. At least you can have three square meals a day."

Shawn watched the scene unfold, his look unreadable. Violet's grandmother patted her cheek, her touch cold and unloving. "Goodbye, Violet," she said, turning to leave.

Violet held tight to her grandmother's hand, sobbing and pleading. "Please, grandma! Don't leave me here, please!" she cried, her voice echoing through the room.

"Get off me!" Violet's grandmother pushed her away, and Violet fell to the floor, her sobs echoing through the room.

Shawn's voice cut through the air, firm and commanding. "Stop crying!" he yelled, his eyes flashing with annoyance. Violet flinched in fear, her sobs subsiding as she held her breath, her eyes fixed on Shawn with terror.

Some minutes later, Shawn sat comfortably in his chair, his legs crossed as he sipped his drink. His gaze landed on Violet, who sat quietly, sobbing as she squeezed her shirt. Her head was bowed, and her shoulders shook with each sob.

Shawn's look was cold and unyielding as he asked, "What's your name?" His voice was firm, but Violet refused to answer. She kept her head down, her sobs growing louder. His eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched in annoyance. "Don't make me ask again," he warned, his voice dripping with menace.

Violet slowly raised her face, her eyes red and puffy from crying. "V...violet, my name is Violet," she stuttered, her voice shaking.

Shawn scoffed, "Violet? What kind of stupid name is that? Who in their right senses gives a child a name after a color?" He sneered, his lips curling in contempt.

Violet's eyes flashed with anger, and she snapped, "My parents gave me that name!" Her voice was firm, but her body trembled with fear.

Shawn's look didn't change, but a hint of amusement danced in his eyes. "Well, I don't care," he said, his voice cold. "From now on, your name is Sofia."

Violet's face twisted in distaste. "I don't like that name," she said, her voice firm.

"You have no choice," he growled. "You are mine now, and you must abide by my rules, young lady."his eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched in anger.

Violet's eyes flashed with defiance. "It's Violet," she said, her voice firm.

his voice turned cold, his eyes glinting with anger. "Sofia!" he yelled, correcting her. "Don't talk while I am still talking," he warned, his voice dripping with menace. "Your grandma sold you to me, and if she doesn't return before you turn eighteen and come back with the end of our bargain...I will have you," he said, his eyes glinting with a sinister intent. "So get prepared!"

With that, he stood up and walked away, leaving Violet to her tears. Violet's body shook with sobs as she whispered, "I'll never be Sofia...I'll always be Violet."
