Auctioned to a mafia boss Chapter 169: I remember
Bella’s POV One by one my steps slowed down by a roadside bench and I took a very difficult sit. The evening breeze kept swirling the dried leaves swamped on the ground but that’s the least expected as I took refuge in the shades of a tree.It’s long branches shielded my wandering heart from dismay. I went out alone and it’s only right I walk back alone, well at least that’s what I’d like to tell myself was the reason for declining his ride offer while in reality I was just too confused and embarrassed to accept his offer. His voice still replayed in my brain like a wireless tape. ‘Curiosity does kill the cat’ That awkwardness would’ve been avoided if I wasn’t so interested in finding out his relationship with me. I feel stupid for insisting, now I know and it’s only making me question my choices in life so far. I remained seated on the bench as I replayed the entire conversation in my head. “How’d you know me? Tell me and I’ll try to remember” He didn’t seem hesitant at al
Auctioned to a mafia boss Chapter 170: Friendship
Bella’s POV Our meet up location wasn’t too elaborate but I refrained from picking a restaurant that we visited in the past. For obvious reasons I didn’t want to worsen my mental health. I thought I arrived early but Emily was already seated so I took my sit with heaviness. The corner we chose was closest to the window and I found Emily staring through the glass like a wounded lion vying to penetrate the mind of a human. “Uhm mm” I cleared my throat to grab her attention and it worked. Immediately her eyes rested on me a broad smile formed on her lips but it seemed foreign in comparison to her previous joyful smiles. Her unparalleled joviality was no where to be seen. The look in her eyes was just a hollow vague cast of her past self.There was an awkward silence in the air, none of us could ask the other how we were doing because these past few months have been a hell of a ride for us.“Have you ordered anything?” I tried to mange the situation. “Not yet, I really don’t wanna e
Auctioned to a mafia boss Chapter 171: What if
Bella’s POV I still remember the exquisite design of the card in my possession that night. It made me curious to know what was inside but my curiosity level wasn’t that intense to peel it open in his presence so I waited till I was alone. Amiee was awake when I got in, she noticed my drunken state and offered me a glass of water before continuing playing on her iPad. Of course I received the glass in good faith, my throat was sore and dry from weeping. After which I made my way to the bedroom to freshen up.The card on my bed shelve caught my attention before I got the chance to turn off my bedside lamp. I picked it up and glanced at Amiee’s peaceful sleeping figure. The image of Arya sleeping in that position keeps flashing in my vision, having a saddening effect but I was powerless against it. I cried so much earlier that I had no strength left to fulfill my depressed mood at the moment.Eventually I looked away and opened the invitation. I was instantly stunned at its content. Wa
Auctioned to a mafia boss Chapter 172: Getting married
Bella’s POV The ride to the party began and I was still mentally conflicted. I thought making the decision was the hard part but it turns out taking action is even worse. Klaus had a driver pick me up and I was pleased he didn’t come himself. To be honest I wanted nothing more than to turn the car around and head back home but I can’t, my pride won’t let me. After the conversation I had with Amiee, how could I shamelessly return in defeat?I sucked the uneasiness and squeezed my palm for support, hopefully tonight turns out okay otherwise...I might never show my face in public ever again!“We’re here, should I take the back entrance?”I looked out the window for a while and watched the chattering scenes of some elite personalities in the city before answering.“Hmm, let’s take the back”He drove in that direction and I had my pinky hovering over Klaus number.should I call him or not? In the end I didn’t and got down carefully. My fishtail dress forced me to maintain a poise t
Auctioned to a mafia boss Chapter 173: Freaking cousins!
Bella’s POV What in the mother freaking world is he talking about? I was staring at Klaus in shock and utter disbelief, he didn’t have an ounce of jest in his tone and that alone rang trouble in our midst. Klaus mom looked as if she’s seen a ghost while his dad had a deep scowl on his features. “Klaus Cavil Denford! What has gotten into you?!Her voice couldn’t avoid climbing pitches and for a second she forgot about their surroundings. Her sudden outburst drew a lot of eyes to our direction but Klaus stayed silent. I couldn’t decipher what was going through his head. Was he planning on angering his parents to death?!He was an only child so of course his words were more than just provocations. It was an open threat! Mr Denford strikes me as a man of few words, must be where Klaus got the bulk of his character.For facts I didn’t even know Klaus had a second name! The air was filled with tension and I was caught in the middle. To think this was happening because of me was rather
Auctioned to a mafia boss Chapter: 174: War of memories
Bella’s POV It couldn’t be said that Klaus question was an out of pocket shit but I was still gravely shocked at the anticipation in his eyes. At the very least I thought he’d wait till we were seated but I guess not. His full attention was on me and I was trying hard to appear calm while my mind was a complete mess. Giving the situation if I tell Klaus the truth about how I met Louis, what would happen then? The outcome would certainly be disastrous but lying is just as fatal. I was conflicted! My mind was stuck in two worlds and it wasn’t until the car horned that I snapped back to reality. Klaus still had his eyes fixed on me and he raised his hand to signal the driver. His gesture was clear, he wanted an answer before we entered. I bit the insides of my cheek and took a gamble.“Well, that night at the bar I didn’t recognize him but he later explained that we met in X city. That was when I remembered”I finished speaking but he still had his eyes glued on me, the suspicion in
Auctioned to a mafia boss Chapter 175: To be loved
Bella’s POV The impact sent a shudder through me and even though I earnestly thought against it I still found myself reciprocating his hot vicious kisses. The human body was really a scary system, in this very moment all thoughts of resisting died as his fervent plunging sucked my lips whole. My body was awoke within breaths and nothing else seem to matter, like hell! Time itself froze! All I heard was the truth of my heart as I let him tempt me to an almost irredeemable state. In the spur of the moment my hands had moved to wrap his neck while both of his hands firmly circled my waist. This warm enclosure brought me a great deal of security and I couldn’t deny it threw me into a momentary daze. One which I wanted to tarry longer in but I couldn’t because even as I carried out this scandalous act I’m reminded of all the troubles that comes with it. In the next moment I broke the kiss, slowly but steadily I pushed a hand between our chest and his hold on my waist loosened, now all
Auctioned to a mafia boss Chapter 176: Scar removal
Arya’s POV “Close your eyes sweetie pie... sleep in my embrace, away, away from the troubling world, I’ll always be by your side”“Now sleep” I said in exasperation, this little one didn’t take yield to my soothing lullaby. His bright blue eyes kept staring at me with joyous expectations. It had the power to mesmerize my soul but I had to overlook his charms and keep on stroking the rocking bed to my rhythms. ‘Please go to bed, mama has an appointment to catch up with’ a soft sigh freely left my lips, I can just be honest with myself now, my son was pretty stubborn for a month old. Damien insisted on getting a nanny even though I felt it was unnecessary. I mean, it wasn’t like I had twins or something but okay...Eventually I agreed and from the selection process I hired a girl named Jane and she’s been doing a wonderful job only that Aiden wasn’t fond of people. Yes, people! In any case, my scar removal surgery is scheduled today at noon and I’m doing everything I can to put Aid
