The Auction

The most dangerous man in the room bought me.

One minute, I’m a hotel maid no one notices.
The next, I’m dragged onto a stage where ruthless men buy women for property.

Then Gabriel Moretti walks in.

Silver at his temples.
Violence in his eyes.
Power in every cold, effortless step.

He buys me in front of everyone.

Now I’m trapped inside his world of marble halls, shadowed deals, and bloodstained secrets.
Where his word is law, his touch is ruin… and every glance brands me as his.

Then I learn the truth.

The auction wasn’t random.
The men bidding on me weren’t strangers.
And Gabriel knew exactly who I was.

If the truth comes out, they won’t just hunt me—
they’ll try to erase me before everything burns.

Because I’m not just part of this twisted world.
I’m the spark that could burn it to hell.
