I spent the entire flight from Seattle to London trying to convince myself that I was only traveling across the ocean to negotiate the multimillion-dollar investment deal with the Italian racing team in person and not to be closer to Sarah.
Of course, all the flight hours weren't enough for me to achieve that feat, and upon arriving at the hotel that Ryan had booked for our stay, I was just a hair's breadth away from going out in search of the woman who had been haunting my thoughts since our first encounter.
"At what time is the meeting scheduled with Cecati's executives?" I asked my insubordinate assistant.
"I've scheduled a business lunch, and after that, a visit to the team headquarters," he said, while checking something on his laptop.

SarahI was finishing getting ready when the doorbell rang, and I deduced it was Enrico because he had suggested a "romantic" dinner tonight at a trendy restaurant that was quite popular among the rich and famous.He wanted us to be seen in public, and preferably, the press would release photos of us together, in a romantic atmosphere, because that way he could grab Rachel's attention.I didn't refuse to do what he wanted for several reasons, one of which was knowing that it wouldn't bother my sister at all, and because I really wanted to leave the house, do something different, as since I arrived in London, my life has been limited to work and home.Hillary didn't like going out and would trade any outing for a tub of ice cream, a bowl of popcorn, and TV. It didn't mat
Auctioned for the Billionaire A long night
KaelUpon realizing that the man who had exited the Ferrari and was heading towards the building where Sarah lived was Enrico Bianchi, the pilot she was dating, I was overcome by emotion once again, even though I was certain that what I was doing was not right. Today, they wouldn't have the evening they had planned. I instructed the taxi driver to follow them closely. I wasn't the least bit concerned that they might notice they were being followed.After a few minutes of driving, I felt a certain relief when I realized that the couple's destination was just an upscale restaurant in an elitist neighborhood of London. In a hurry, I paid the driver and headed to the restaurant's entrance. Soon, I was questioned by the hostess if I had a reservation, something I obviously didn't have. Nothing that the power of money couldn't solve.Minutes later, I was comfortably seated at a table near Sarah and her companion. I hadn't even placed my order when Sarah noticed my presence, looking around a
Auctioned for the Billionaire I Won't Give In
SarahTurning my back on the man I love was incredibly difficult. Yes, I love him, and the realization of this old fact changes nothing. Kael may have come after me, but he never made any promises. He just wants to take advantage of being in town and have a few more nights of sex, nothing more. But I don't want the same.Some people may be content with less as long as they're with the one they love. I can't accept something like that. I want it all. And even after hours rolling in bed, reliving every minute I spent face to face with Kael, remembering every word he said, I still have the same conviction.Enrico left after a few minutes, realizing that Kael had entered the taxi and assuming he wouldn't be coming back, at least not that night."He'll come for you again, Sarah," Enrico had said. "He wants you, and he won't give up easily. The question is, how long can you resist?""I won't give in," I replied with renewed determination.That same determination drove me to ignore Kael's ca
Auctioned for the Billionaire Delicious Jerk
RachelI felt disoriented, dizzy, and light-headed, unable to comprehend or explain everything that was happening to me. However, I was apparently fine! I looked around the nightclub, crowded with beautiful people, the kind I liked to be around, all exuding wealth even through the pores of their well-cared-for skin. Although I identified with them, unfortunately, I no longer belonged to the exclusive group of millionaires.Despite all my efforts and struggles to try to belong to that group again, my plans were constantly thwarted, and once again, the blame fell on Sarah, that fake. I ordered another drink, paying with the card that Lorenzo, the idiot, gave me to shop for his apartment, but I was using it to finance my own drunkenness with him. Essentially, that's what I was doing.I know that getting wasted doesn't
Auctioned for the Billionaire The Perfect Opportunity
KaelAs it had happened the previous night, I decided to try to talk to Sarah again, but this time I chose to wait for her outside the Nessyscar offices. I was surprised to see her leaving with Bianchi. I assumed he would drop her off at home, and I could approach her afterward. However, I was taken aback when I saw them stop in front of a famous London nightclub, Tiger Tiger London, which I had visited on previous trips to the city.That didn't deter me, and I entered the club right behind them. However, the nightclub was huge and divided into various areas. I tried to follow the direction they took, but with the large crowd of people in the venue, I ended up losing sight of Sarah, which left me quite irritated.I decided to explore the different areas a bit and try to find them again, which was not such a simple
Auctioned for the Billionaire Important Decision
KaelI arrived at my hotel suite in the company of a seemingly indecisive Sarah, who was quite different from the passionate girl with whom I had spent hot and desire-filled nights, which was understandable. It was in my hands to change that situation, and now, in front of the woman I couldn't get out of my thoughts, I understood that I couldn't live without her anymore."Come here," I called out to her as she was still standing by the door."I don't think it was a very good idea to come here with you, Kael," she confirmed my impression.I walked over to where she was and placed one hand on her waist, while the other went to her silky black hair, as dark as the night."I'm sure I can convince you to change that impression.""Not everything is about sex, Kael," she said, annoyed. "There are other things just as, if not more, important than that.""You're right, of course," I agreed, as her words held truth. "But all I can offer you tonight is this. Sex.""I don't want just sex, Kael,"
Auctioned for the Billionaire Tense Moment
SarahAfter an intense and passionate night in Kael's arms, the following morning raised questions about our future and whether his words during our intimate moments were genuine or just a ploy to persuade me into an empty night of pleasure. Kael had never needed to lie to get what he wanted before, and indeed, he hadn't this time. However, his coercive behavior revealed much about his character. If he was capable of using coercion to achieve his desires, he would surely be capable of lying as well.Despite this, I woke up in his arms, feeling the warmth of his body beside mine, and I stayed there for as long as I could. However, it was a weekday, and I needed to be at work by nine o'clock, so reality soon made itself known, and I had to get up and face the truth about what we really had.I looked around the hotel room, searching for my phone somewhere, as I needed to know the exact time. When I couldn't find it anywhere, I moved in the bed, trying to get up and look for the device."
Auctioned for the Billionaire Unexpected Presence
KaelI confessed my feelings to Sarah, professed my love, and promised that once I sorted out some pending matters, I could offer her what she desired. However, even with all those words, it wasn't enough to convince her to accompany me back to Seattle.It's confusing how someone can claim to love me but not want to be by my side. Reluctantly, I complied with her wishes and let her go to focus on her precious work, which seemed to be above everything, even our mutual feelings.This situation weighed heavily on my mind and disrupted my concentration throughout the day. I inwardly thanked having the assistance of Ryan, an efficient and detail-oriented assistant, who made the negotiation with the Italian racing team less complicated.My newest partner, enthusiastic about our collaborati

Kael Coming home and finding Sarah was truly a special moment, something I deeply missed during the months we were apart. I was foolish and arrogant, and I prefer to forget about that time. However, today the situation wasn't as pleasant due to Bianchi's inconvenient presence, who came from London to visit my wife. It bothered me quite a bit, although I knew I had no right to forbid this meeting. I love Sarah deeply, but I'm not her owner. She is free to receive whoever she desires, and it's not up to me to impose rules. Nonetheless, I can't deny that I didn't feel comfortable leaving her alone with Bianchi, and I wonder what they were talking about downstairs. Where are my mom and Maira when I need them the most? They could be keeping this annoying pilot company instead of wandering around. Initially, I thought about waiting for Sarah in her room, but I wanted to avoid putting any pressure on her. So, albeit reluctantly, I headed to my own room. After a long, hot shower, I wrapped

Kael has hired a team of professionals to closely monitor my recovery process.Ryan and I had a long conversation. Despite the difficulties after everything that happened, he is still my brother, and we have a lot in common. With Maira, the connection was immediate, and I became fond of her, as well as of our other brother, even before knowing about our blood ties.Mary is a lovely person, and her presence has been crucial in my adjustment. Sharing the same roof with her strengthens our bond, and her help is valuable in all aspects of my daily life.Rachel, on the other hand, remained absent, not giving news or showing interest in visiting me.

Auctioned for the Billionaire Second Chance
SarahI feel a profound relief when Kael's hand wraps around mine, as if that simple gesture could push away some of the burden I carry. However, the feeling is bittersweet because I'm hiding a truth that eats away at me from the inside, but it also shows me that we're not as different as I thought."I've made mistakes too, by letting myself be influenced by everything Rachel said."I confess because it's the truth. I look into his eyes, seeking transparency, even though I myself am hiding something important. Kael gazes at me attentively, his eyes filled with emotion, and he makes a proposal that catches me by surprise:"How about we write a new story for us, Sarah?" He asks sincerely, and I can see that his words come from the heart. "I'm just asking for a second chance, to do things differently and prove that I'm telling the truth."My feelings are in turmoil, but Kael's sincere and vulnerable gaze moves me. I look at this strong and determined man, who holds my hand so gently, as
Auctioned for the Billionaire A Test of Love
KaelThe scheduled time for work appointments went unnoticed because my mind was a tangle of worries. I knew Ryan would have to deal with my absence, but at that moment, I had no capacity to focus on business. I wasn't in a state to think about business, and Ryan would have to handle things without me. After all, the company is also his asset, as he is my brother, and half of the shares belong to our mother.I called Ryan with the intention of explaining my absence and my troubled mind."I already suspected that you wouldn't be able to attend the meeting today," Ryan's voice sounded understanding, as if he were reading my thoughts. "I tried to get in touch with Sarah, now that the diagnosis is confirmed, but she doesn't want to talk to me."The mention of a confirmed diagnosis caught me off guard. Confused, I questioned, "Confirmed diagnosis? What are you talking about?""I managed to briefly talk to Maira on the phone a few minutes ago. She told me about the medical evaluation."The

SarahAfter Kael made his promise to prove his love for me through actions, even though I found it ridiculous, my feelings were in complete turmoil. Without even thinking about what I was about to do, I grabbed the nearest object and threw it against the door.It was my cell phone, and I ended up damaging it, which only increased my agitation. I had never thrown objects around before, let alone with the intent of releasing my frustration."What happened?" Maira asked, entering the room.I glanced at the floor where the phone lay, still intact but probably no longer functioning. She followed my gaze and realized what I had done, picking up the device from the floor. As expected, the screen was cracked in several places."I im

KaelEntering that hospital room and finding Sarah lying in the bed, aware of the real possibility that she might never walk again, made me feel like the worst human being in the world. Deep down, I knew my responsibility in all of this was significant, and the weight of guilt hit me like an avalanche.I decided at that moment that, regardless of what she might say now, I would do everything in my power to help her. Even if she no longer wanted me around, I was determined to continue taking care of her, even from a distance."Leave us alone, Maira," Sarah's voice didn't sound like a request, but rather like a firm order. Just from that short sentence, I could sense how the accident had transformed her personality, and not in a positive way."You can call me if you need anything," Maira says before leaving the room. Although her words were directed at Sarah, I knew it was a message for me."What do you hope to achieve by approaching me? Do you think you'll gain sympathy from everyone b
Auctioned for the Billionaire Ignoring the Truth
SarahAlthough no one had the courage, or perhaps it's more appropriate to say "integrity," to inform me about the significant probability of facing paraplegia, this concern had been lingering in my thoughts. Even though I tried to ignore it, I knew it wasn't normal to feel nothing and be unable to move my legs when the rest of my body was functioning fine. However, accepting this reality and confronting the inevitable conclusion was no simple task. Apparently, I had also chosen to deceive myself, preferring to believe in the inappropriate actions of those around me. But after the conversation with Lorenzo, I could no longer delay accepting the truth.I needed to accept that this was happening and learn to deal with all the difficulties that people in the same situation of paraplegia face, something I likely developed due to the accident."It's still not definitive, Sarah," Maira repeated her motivational speech. "The final diagnosis hasn't been given yet, and the doctor said we'll on
Auctioned for the Billionaire Honesty
KaelDespite Enrico making it clear that he doesn't agree with my past choices, I don't regret sharing this story with him. What matters right now is Sarah's well-being. While I want her back and he's my rival in the competition for her heart, it's crucial that everything is transparent. Honesty is now paramount.No more hiding secrets or telling lies. It was precisely this lack of clarity that led to all this confusion and the situation Sarah finds herself in, lying in a hospital bed with a real possibility of not walking again."Did you manage to talk to Rachel?" Maira asks when we're back in the waiting room."I was informed that she's still in Monaco. But she's not answering our calls, and honestly? Sarah is better off without her toxic presence," I clarify. "Has she been asking for her sister?""Not really. Sarah hasn't been asking for anyone, really. She's been very introspective and bitter since she woke up, and that's not a good sign, considering everything that's coming," Mai
Auctioned for the Billionaire Repentance
KaelI listened carefully to Maira's words and felt my heart tighten with sadness. I wanted to be by Sarah's side at that moment, offering the support that, out of pride and being a complete fool, I hadn't given before – the love I felt for her."I don't understand why the doctor doesn't just tell Sarah the truth!" I vented, genuinely outraged. "I don't see any reason to keep her in the dark like this."Maira had just informed me that Sarah had already noticed the lack of movement and sensation in her legs, and now I had many questions, especially after the doctor's visit in the morning."Something else happened today," Maira said, looking somewhat apprehensive."What?""She agreed to see Enrico.""I can't believe she agreed to see him, but can't even stand to hear my name!" I said, irritated."Her relationship with Enrico is very different from what you both had, Kael," Maira tried to calm me down. "From what I understand, considering both of their reports, you made a serious mistake
