The first issue was my Uncle who suddenly showed up at my company without letting me know. I took up as a priority because I respected him for the being the one person who took me in and trained me since the tragic passing away of my parents 15 years ago._That old man again. What the hell does he want this time?_ I pinched the fold of skin on my forehead in annoyance.At that moment, my driver had arrived at the airport where my private Jet was waiting. The car came to a full stop and I quickly got out. My butler was on standby to collect the briefcase I came with. In quick steps, I moved up the stairs, and settled in one of the chairs.The plane soon took off and we were en route to LA. My phone buzzed as a call came from my secretary."What is it, Michelle? Is it my uncle?" I inquired impatiently."No sir, it's your... fia..ncee, Bianca."My face darkened. Bianca
Shirley's POVRight from the moment I and the other girls entered the loud and bustling hall, we fell into a state of utter confusion and dismay.It didn't take long for me to know we were bidden on and sold to the highest bidders. _Agatha was right. We are the damned goods to be sold._ I began to feel really bad for Cecilia, I wish I could protect her._I had to accept my damned fate._The girls was sold one after the other until it got to my turn. Suddenly, the stage light focused on me, unfortunately I hadn't covered my eyes in time, the bright light stung my eyes badly almost making me go blind.My heart jumped in my chest, I was so scared. _I felt so useless, naked, devastated, name it._ I then heard an exorbitant price ring out from amongst the crowd. "12 million dollars."The prices rose higher, and it felt like it was a battle between two people. "100 million dollars!" I gulped on hearing the bid.

Adolphus's POVI stared blankly into the crowd below from the peace and quiet of the private room specially meant for VIPs, and of course I was the only VIP there. I wondered what the hell I was doing in this gathering of rowdy fools, I wouldn't be here again if not for the constant pestering of Kenneth, my Beta. He loved gathering or rather buying rare art pieces and jewelries, and a bad habit of obtaining the expensive ones. Of course, to find things like that, they will be found in places like this.Well of course, I was perfectly fine if it wasn't my money Kenneth used to obtain them. I only used money for what I deemed fit to get or what I wanted at the moment.He had this really annoying convincing power.

It was clear and peaceful, well, not peaceful in every sense of the word. The appearance of the full moon in our pack and every other pack, marks the day we pay tribute to the moon goddess and indulge in festivities. Today wasn't that day, today remains the day I will never, ever forget in a hurry.Today was supposed to be my birthday, my turning of age, and ultimately the night I was to meet my destined mate.
