"One million," A man seated at the corner of the room called out, raising his paddle. My heart pounded louder with each bid. The men sneered, their eyes devouring me like I was a piece of meat. My body trembled as I rubbed my sweaty hands on my clothes. The bids went higher and higher until there were just two men left. "Three million," the chubby man declared, impatient evident in his tone. There was silence in the room for a moment. "Five million," A stranger countered, raising his paddle. My eyes widened in shock as I tried to figure out who this stranger was. The room was filled with murmurs and no one could counter the stranger. The auctioneer's gavel slammed down. "Sold!"  *** Leila Flynn, 19 years old, struggles to keep her ailing brother alive, and her life takes a dark turn when she is suddenly kidnapped into London's underworld auction. During the auction, she is bought for a high price by a mysterious and wealthy stranger, Dominic Anderson. Leila is then taken to a grand mansion in London, where she begins a complex relationship with Dominic. Dominic, a powerful mafia boss, lives a life shrouded in mystery and danger. Leila gradually discovers that Dominic's concern for her and her younger brother, Michael- who suffers from leukemia- goes beyond mere kindness.

He accused her of seduction and was mean towards her after a one night stand. In retaliation, Mercedes threw a $1 note at him as payment for his service and a measure of his performance, which she graded to be below average. Meanwhile, her body ached terribly and her walls felt sore. Two days later, she walked to her new office and was sent to the board room to begin her job as a personal assistant to the President. Her heart stopped when she realized that the man she ridiculed was Nathan Legend. The multi-billionaire devil everyone whispered about. Graciously, he pretended to not know her to her great relief. Yet, when she entered his office, he locked the door. His face carried no emotions, his eyes piercing, his voice chilled like ice. "You shall spend the rest of your life, paying for the insult you threw in my face, till I tear that $1 note off the wall." She shivered to his word and as if to read her mind, he seethed, "don't even think about resigning because, I would make sure, that no company employs you and if you run, I will find you."

“Make love to me.” I pleaded. I wasn’t thinking straight and I was only doing this to get back at Benjamin but the way Saint was currently looking at me did not help with my decision making. “Make love to you?” He repeated. He was probably baffled seeing as I was dating his nephew. “Yes.” I didn’t back down. Saint took a few steps closer to me, making me falter. Was he finally going to throw me out of his room for talking such nonsense? I held my breath as I waited for the inevitable rejection. “I don’t make love, mia cara. I f*ck.” ~•~ When Adriana Jensen catches her boyfriend cheating on her with her best friend, her first idea is to get back at him by sleeping with his uncle, Saint, but when she is rejected by him, she sees it as a challenge and stops at nothing to make him break before their trip is over. Saint Rossi has no business lusting after his nephew’s girlfriend but he cannot help his obsession, especially after she boldly gives herself to him. He tries his best to stay away from her because she is too good to be brought into his darkness, but it seems like fate had other plans for the pair.

As the CEO of Sebastian Pictures, I held all the authority. I was the one who called the shots, constantly in the spotlight. I was meant to be the man in charge. Until I met Eloise, she was a junior art director at my subsidiary company. She also happened to be my best friend’s ex-girlfriend. To her, I was Mr. Dangerous in a suit—her new boss. For me, she was a challenge I couldn’t resist. I was used to getting what I wanted. I craved to own her, possess her. Now, we’d gotten ourselves tangled in a game where neither of us could win. But here’s the thing: the more we played, the more she turned the tables. She had me breaking my own rules.

"I'm an ordinary waiter, but I can see people's fate, including Shifters. Like all children, I was tested for magic when I was only a few days old. Since my specific bloodline is unknown and my magic is unidentifiable, I was marked with a delicate swirling pattern around my upper right arm. I do have magic, just as the tests showed, but it has never lined up with any known Magic species. I can't breathe fire like a dragon Shifter, or hex people who piss me off like Witches. I can't make potions like an Alchemist or seduce people like a Succubus. Now I don't mean to be unappreciative of the power I do have, it's interesting and all, but it just really doesn't pack much of a punch and most of the time it is just pretty much useless. My special magical skill is the ability to see threads of fate. Most of life is annoying enough for me, and what never occurred to me is that my mate is a rude, pompous nuisance. He's an Alpha and my friend's twin brother. --------------------------------------- “What are you doing? This is my home, you can't just let yourself in!” I try and keep my voice firm but when he turns and fixes me with his golden eyes I shrink back. The look he gives me is imperious and I automatically drop my eyes to the floor as is my habit. Then I force myself to look back up again. He doesn't notice me looking up because he's already looked away from me. He's being rude, I refuse to show that he's scaring me, even though he most definitely is. He glances around and after realising that the only place to sit is the little table with its two chairs he points to it. “Sit.” he orders. I glare at him. Who is he to order me around like this? How can someone this obnoxious possibly be my soul mate? Maybe I'm still asleep. I pinch my arm and my eyes water a little from the sting of pain."

"Ser la segunda mejor está prácticamente en mi ADN. Mi hermana recibió el amor, la atención, el protagonismo. Y ahora, incluso su maldito prometido. Técnicamente, Rhys Granger era mi prometido, ahora multimillonario, devastadoramente atractivo y un sueño húmedo de Wall Street. Mis padres me empujaron a este compromiso después de que Catherine desapareciera, y honestamente? No me importó. Estuve enamorada de Rhys durante años. Esta era mi oportunidad, ¿verdad? ¿Mi turno de ser la elegida? Incorrecto. Una noche, me abofeteó. Por una taza. Una estúpida, astillada y fea taza que mi hermana le dio hace años. Ahí fue cuando me di cuenta: no me amaba. Ni siquiera me veía. Solo era un lugar ocupado con un cuerpo caliente para la mujer que realmente quería. Y aparentemente, ni siquiera valía tanto como una glorificada taza de café. Así que le devolví la bofetada, lo dejé y me preparé para el desastre: mis padres perdiendo la cabeza, Rhys haciendo un berrinche de multimillonario, su aterradora familia tramando mi prematura desaparición. Obviamente, necesitaba alcohol. Mucho alcohol. Entra él. Alto, peligroso, injustamente atractivo. El tipo de hombre que te hace querer pecar solo por existir. Lo había conocido solo una vez antes, y esa noche, casualmente estaba en el mismo bar que mi yo borracho y autocompasivo. Así que hice lo único lógico: lo arrastré a una habitación de hotel y le arranqué la ropa. Fue imprudente. Fue estúpido. Fue completamente desaconsejado. Pero también fue: El. Mejor. S*x. De. Mi. Vida. Y, como resultó, la mejor decisión que jamás había tomado. Porque mi aventura de una noche no es solo un tipo cualquiera. Es más rico que Rhys, más poderoso que toda mi familia, y definitivamente más peligroso con quien debería estar jugando. Y ahora, no me está dejando ir."
