"One million," A man seated at the corner of the room called out, raising his paddle.
My heart pounded louder with each bid. The men sneered, their eyes devouring me like I was a piece of meat. My body trembled as I rubbed my sweaty hands on my clothes.
The bids went higher and higher until there were just two men left. 
"Three million," the chubby man declared, impatient evident in his tone.
There was silence in the room for a moment.
"Five million," A stranger countered, raising his paddle. 
My eyes widened in shock as I tried to figure out who this stranger was. The room was filled with murmurs and no one could counter the stranger. 
The auctioneer's gavel slammed down. 
"Sold!"

Maid for the Mafia

　　I stood staring at the window, my fists clenched, the pulse pounding in my ears.


　　"He didn't have the decency to wait. And Leila? Well, she didn't exactly fight him off, did she?" Jocelyn circled me,.


　　She shrugged, "I'm only telling you what I heard. Luca wasn't being friendly, he was making his move while you were lying there, barely alive."


　　"I know what you're doing," I growled, "You want me to hate Leila. You want to twist the knife until I can't see straight."


　　She was not daunted, "Dominic, I'm here just to make you see the light from this, she is not as innocent as you think she is. You deserve better than being played by them."


　　"They didn't play me." I spun away, fisting my hands at my sides. "Luca and I had a deal. Leila would choose. She was always gonna choose, and we promised not to interfere. He- he betrayed that."
