STORY BLURB: “50 million dollars! Sold!” The auctioneer announced. Right there, I was sold out to my worst nightmare, Mafia Lord Vincenzo. The story is centered on Melissa, who lost her parents at a tender age, and was taken in by her aunt. She was maltreated by both her aunt, and her cousin. Melissa was then sold out to an auctioneer, and was bought by Mafia Lord Vincenzo, who was feared by all, and known to be ruthless, and cold. Could her innocence, and pure heart, ever thaw the cold, and feared Mafia Lord’s heart, or her smile would forever disappear, after being sold to him?
View MoreChapter 9MELISSA’S POVThe moment my nude photos would get out, I know very well that it is that very day doom would befall me. Lord Vincenzo might take all my explanations for an excuse. The fact that he might punish me or get rid of me after the whole incident made me feel scared.“Hey! The coach is headed this way. You can continue with whatever you’re doing and get caught, or you leave!” I heard a familiar voice speak out.“You escaped this one. Don’t think you’ll be lucky enough to escape another.” The leader said, and then they all ran out of the basketball court.I fell to the ground, traumatized by what had just happened. I was close to enslavement which could turn to public ridicule if I didn’t allow myself to be enslaved. Then I turned to the direction of the voice of the person who saved me, and coming towards me was Claire.“Hey, are you okay?” She asked, bending down to me.I sniffled, and swatted my hair to the back, then sat up.“You saved me again.” I muttered out, no
MELISSA’S POV I was lost in thoughts while walking back home. I felt so troubled, lost, dejected, and tired of it all. I couldn’t believe that Lord Vincenzo truly had his eyes on me in the school and what was more surprising was that it was my professor. Now, I was in trouble seeing as Professor Darwin was ready to destroy my life if I didn’t do his bid. “Oh, gosh! What do I do about this?” I stomped my feet like a pouting child. “Is there anything wrong?” Kavon questioned, out of the blue. I didn’t notice that I had almost gotten home until I looked up at Kavon and then I glanced at the mansion. “Uhm… N…nothing.” I replied, then I walked into the mansion. When I got into my room, I sat on the bed like a lifeless being. Thinking back to when Professor Darwin asked me to have sex with him, I felt frustrated. “I can’t have sex with that man. No. There has to be another way around this.” I muttered under my breath as I stared at the ceiling. My eyes gradually closed as they beca
MELISSA’S POV Here I was, right before the college. I couldn’t believe I was sent to study fashion designing. Out of all courses in the world, I had to go for fashion designing. Anyways, I was to be thankful because I could still manage that. It was still a reputable course, with a promising future. I walked into the building, and found the class I was to have this morning. I was late, and it was so weird as half of the class turned their heads to look at me. “Miss whatever, this should be your first and last time you come in to my class late. I am Professor Darwin and I do not tolerate both lateness and laziness in my class.” He spoke sternly, and I nodded, pursing my lips out of embarrassment. About half of the class laughed, making things worse, so I just found my way up to the back. I sat down comfortably, and focused on the Professor. “Hey.” A lady with blonde hair, called my attention. She was two seats away from me, but she moved closer to me and sat beside me. “I’m Cla
MELISSA’S POV I was back in my room, and could not get the thought of what had happened between Lord Vincenzo and I out of my mind. Although, it had ended just with a kiss, and it seemed like it was the influence of the alcohol. But the only thing that weighed on me was the fact that he reminded me that I know him even before I was auctioned to him. I had tried to forget it as long as he didn’t remember me, but he telling me I looked familiar only pushed dread down my throat. ~flashback~ FIVE YEARS AGO I was left alone in the house because my aunt and her son had gone out to have fun at the mall and what hit me hard in the heart was the fact that they would go to the cinema and have fun with the virtual games as well. My aunt had ordered me to do the laundry, and clean the home before she got back. I even had to do my cousin’s laundry as well which was disgusting because most of his pants was stained with his semen. I squeezed my face as I sorted out the clothes which were meant
MELISSA’S POV I was back to Lord Vincenzo’s mansion, and I sat in my room, feeling down. How did I manage to get into this trouble? It’s just as that lady said to me that I would end up in a battle ground between both of them, and I would be like the grass that suffers when elephants fight. Recalling that, I decided to go to the basement and ask a few questions. I stood up from the bed, and walked out of the room. I looked left and right in the hallway, and tiptoed out of the hallway. On getting to the sitting room, I looked around to be certain there was no one lurking around anywhere. I knew it was because I was about to do something which could cost me my life, or make Lord Vincenzo torture me, that I was carefully walking. As soon as I got to the stairs leading to the basement, it felt as if a huge rock was dropped in my heart. I felt like my blood became cold. “You can do this, Melissa.” I muttered under my breath. I walked down the stairs, step by step, careful not to make
MELISSA’S POV I was dragged into a car, still struggling even after I was thrown into the car. “Knock her out. She won’t lay low.” One of them said. Before I could make any other move, my neck was hit hard, and I blanked out. ~ I became conscious, and found myself in a different room. I was on a queen-sized bed, and a plate of fruits was placed on the bedside table. I sat up, still wondering where exactly I was. “Leo tried to rape me, and I was saved by an interruption.” I said, but then I gasped as I covered my mouth, in shock. “Michael Deaton.” The door opened wide, and a man, dressed in a black suit, walked in. I moved backwards on the bed, timidly, and then Michael Deaton, walked in. What was he going to do to me? “Good day, Melissa.” He said, with a smile. But I couldn’t respond as I kept staring at him, in fear. “Oh, I’m sorry for the manner in which you were brought here. Pardon me. I am Michael Deaton.” He said, then he walked over to me. “Next time, if anyone is try
MELISSA'S POVWhat the lady down the basement had said, was true. The war between the Mafia Lords was a rough game, and I was certainly going to be trampled on, while they are at it. Lord Vincenzo, making me a bait showed that my death was near."Kavon, prepare her for today's training." He instructed, and walked out of the dungeon.Now, I understood the reason he bought me for $50 million. He had seen my innocence as an advantage to his plan."Follow me." Kavon said.We got to a large pool, and then I noticed that there was another large pool."There could be a time when you could be in a problem, probably things got too rough, learning how to stay underwater, would be helpful as you could come across a situation that needs you to stay calm, underwater." My eyes widened in fear. Was he going to tell me to stay in this pool for a few minutes?"If you can't stay in this pool for up to three minutes, you will be bound inside the cold pool for three minutes, and try not to go unconsciou
LORD VINCENZO'S POV"Boss, she is now in the mansion." Kavon reported."Make sure you keep an eye on her." I instructed."Yes, boss. By the way, should we start, now that she is here?" Kavon asked."Not yet.""Alright, boss."After my meeting, I made move to leave the company I had a meeting in, and at the lobby, I came across Michael. Seeing him always made me want to rush up my plan, but I was going to be patient, and work on it, steadily."Lord Vincenzo, what a surprise to see you." Michael said, with a smile.I stared at him, with no reply from me."Uhm… if you do not mind, I have something I'll like to speak to you about." He said."And what's that about?" I asked."It's about the lady you purchased, at the auction."~I slammed my wrist on the table, in anger."You made me come to your office, just so you can splitter this nonsense?""Lord Vincenzo, please be calm. I felt it is something we need to speak in private. And I feel you really do not have a use for the lady, that's th
MELISSA'S POV"Hey, it's your turn. Come on, outside."That word made nervousness, flow in my veins. Right here, my freedom was going to be gone, forever. I walked up to the stage, and stood, fiddling with my hands, and my hands were shaking.In the crowd, there were ordinary people, and Mafia Lords. Mafia Lords ruled the people, because they were feared, and they had more power, and influence. "Now, we start our bidding from 1 million dollars." The auctioneer announced.Then it dawned on me, what was really happening. I was really going to be sold to anyone who had the highest amount to bid. Why would I be sold, like I am some commodity? Fear gripped me, seeing the stares and glares, around me.I clinged to my gown, which was rippled, and a bit transparent. Then the atmosphere changed. The crowd seemed excited."$2 million." I heard a woman, announce."$5 million." A man shouted."$5.5 million." Another, said.I gasped in fear. My eyes were certainly giving out how scared I was, to
