"50 million dollars." She said, making Orchid gasp in horror, who in his right senses would buy her for 50 million, she thought but this man, he said "100..." A short reply that made her wonder if he was truly in his right senses. No one spoke any more, it was as if the Mafia King himself had just sealed the deal, little did she know that he was truly the Mafia King and a Vampire at that. Madame Lilah practically threw Orchid down and she fell at his feet, hurting her ankle. "Raise your head." He said and she slowly looked up to stare at him. Once again, she was lost in his beauty. "Don't think you are free now. Finally you are mine. Orchid Simmons. I'll make sure to drain every single drop of blood to the extent you won't be able to plead anymore." He bent down to her size slowly.
Her life had not been perfect, never had it been.
She ran into the car as her parents wanted to take her on a road trip.
The men in black suits who she had always seen everywhere around her since she was born got into the cars at their front and back.
"Mum, where are we going to this time around?" She asked, her missing tooth revealing as she smiled.
"It's a secret." Her mum replied and chuckled as she got into the passengers seat beside her dad.
"We are taking you to the best place in Italy, baby." Her dad added and she pouted.
"I'm seven. I'm now old enough to know secrets." She said.
"Okay....okay. Fine. It's not a secret but a surprise now." Her mum said cunningly.
"Mum, that's not fair..."
"And if you are told the surprise now, it won't surprise you anymore, would it?" Her dad laughed. She sighed childishly as she looked at the trees as they passed. It looked like the trees followed her and she chuckled.
"What's so funny...." The car tumbled twice and all she could hear were screams.
Glasses were broken and she could see blood everywhere.
"Mum....Dad." she muttered slowly as she coughed. She rolled out of the open door and her body could be seen, filled by bruises all over. The cars at their front and back had also been involved in the accident and there was no one to call for help. She trudged slowly to her dad's window and she could see his neck bent awkwardly, blood splurging out of his forehead. She gasped and bent down beside him.
"Dad....wake up" She said slowly, stretching her hands to touch her father.
"Dad.. Dad....Wake up!!!" She screamed as she lost consciousness and just then, her eyes flew open, right in time for her to avoid a bowl of flour being emptied on her head. She rolled down from the small and poverty ridden bed, hitting her waist hardly on the floor and the flour emptied on the bed instead.
Madame Lilah gasped slowly, she wasn't expecting Orchid to avoid it.
"Dodging now, are we!" She said wickedly and dragged her by the hair, taking her out.
"Ma'am.." she screamed painfully as Madame Lilah threw her on the floor.
"I've done enough, taking care of you, all this while and now it's time for you to leave!" She said.
Taking care?
It was more like using her and dumping her to her fate. Orchid was not glad a little bit, if Madame Lilah discarded her now, where would she go?
It was not like she knew anyone in the town. She had been taken away from an orphanage home after losing her family and had been brought to this place called hell. Madame Lilah ran a large bar and she automatically became a worker both in the club and at home, the only thing she was grateful for was that no one ever took notice of her, probably because she looked unkempt and the clothes she wore were too large to bring out her beauty, else she might have become a stripper for all she knows.
But she couldn't leave. Her whole life was here, if she leaves now, there was no where to go. She had never left the vicinity and she won't now, she can't.
She suddenly grabbed Madame Lilah's leg as she was about to go back in and the woman looked at her with a sinister smile.
"Ma'am, please.... there's no where for me to go..." She begged.
"Really?" Lilah said pitifully before chuckling.
"But what to do... I'm tired of keeping you, you don't earn for what you take, Orchid. I can't condone you any longer."
"What do you want me to do? I'll... I'll do everything. Just don't throw me out on the streets in the middle of the night." She cried, which made Lilah laugh more.
"What do I want from you... Let's see...how about I give you off to some stranger, you might be lucky and fall into a home where you would be the favourite mistress..." She laughed. Orchid stared up at her slowly. She couldn't believe this woman was as evil as this, give her off to some stranger? Was she some goods?
"Just auction her off, mum." Ella, Madame Lilah daughter laughed as she watched.
"That's right, why didn't I think of that since." Lilah gasped and clapped her hands twice.
Two ladies rushed out immediately, Orchid recognized them, they were madame Lilah's special guards, they were mad up of five specially trained ladies for war at any time. What was she going to do to her?
"Clean her up and dress her nicely. Orchid would be up for auction this night." She smirked. Orchid gasped.
"Ma'am, no.... please I beg you .." she screamed frantically as the two girls dragged her up and took her in. She was no match for them, she was a weak petite lady who had never eaten enough proteins to rebuild lost tissues. How could she be strong enough to fight back?
She was bathed and dressed up in nice clothes that she has never had the luxury to touch since she came in here and now, she was being sold, they dressed her up in it?
It irritated her, the make-up on her face made her feel ugly, she should have been glad to be beautiful at least once but this, it made her feel bad.
She was dragged out on heels she was never never trained to walk on and she staggered and almost fell multiple times. Ella laughed when she saw her and she felt timid like a leaf overcomed by the ferocious blowing wind.
"Finally, you are out of my hair. I'll never have to see you again. Just so you know, the bar is filled up with Mafia Kings of different grades and evilness, I'm sure all of them would be eager to rip you open and get into you as quick as they can ...
The thought of that made Orchid shiver and she hoped that would not be true. She hoped she would be taken into a good home where she can just be treated as nicely as a maid, that was all she could try to wish for.
"Aah...." Ella said as she just remembered something.
"Have you heard of The Vampire King?" She muttered.
"It wasn't just a tale. I heard he is coming here tonight. Maybe, your blood would be as enticing to him...I can't wait to see you being drained of blood.....
Ella smirked and pushed her out if the way before leaving. Her body ran cold, the hairs on her skin stood up in fright. What if she got into the hands of the vampire? She had heard tales of him herself and it turns out they were real, would her blood really be drained?
The ladies dragged her into the bar and all eyes turned to look at her. Madame Lilah chuckled liking the effect, she should have thought of this since, turns out Orchid was a way for her to make more money. She started the auction earnestly.
"1 million..." Someone said.
"2 million.."
"8 million..." The price kept on increasing and Orchid was continually in fear of who her buyer would be.
"20 million" Someone suddenly said and even Madame Lilah gasped.
"Is there any other bid?" She asked and no one spoke.
"Then she goes to....
"I'll buy her." Someone suddenly interrupted and walked in.
Orchid's throat ran dry quickly, not only out of fear because the man had a dark aura surrounding but also out of awe. She had never seen someone so beautiful as a portrait in her like before. He looked like those Greek god of the old times.
His hair was dark and long, falling over his shoulders in cascading beauty, the eyebrows peeking out were darker and full, arranged carefully, his blue eyes like a drop of water embroidered by long full lashes that made her wonder if he was a female, his pointed nose and plump lips made her fall instantly. He had a large build that would definitely make her look tiny beside him and she thought he could definitely carry her with just a hand. But all that stopped when Orchid remembered that he was just another buyer, just another mafia king like others here.
"You'll buy her?" Madame Lilah gasped. She never expected the Vampire King to become interested in someone like Orchid, but she wasn't going to take a loss.
"50 million dollars." She said, making Orchid gasp in horror, who in his right senses would buy her for 50 million, she thought but this man, he said
"100..." A short reply that made her wonder if he was truly in his right senses. No one spoke any more, it was as if the Mafia King himself had just sealed the deal, little did she know that he was truly the Mafia King and a Vampire at that.
Madame Lilah practically threw Orchid down and she fell at his feet, hurting her ankle.
"Raise your head." He said and she slowly looked up to stare at him. Once again, she was lost in his beauty.
"Don't think you are free now. Finally you are mine. Orchid Simmons. I'll make sure to drain every single drop of blood to the extent you won't be able to plead anymore." He bent down to her size slowly.
"And you'll forever plead to my name."
When she saved his life in the depths of the forest, she never expected to lose him. But fate had other plans. Years later, in her true town, still haven't gotten her wolf, she's face to face with the stranger she nursed back to health - now the Alpha Prince, with a reputation for ruthlessness and a gaze that still haunts her dreams. As they collide, the lines between loyalty, duty, and desire blur, threatening to destroy the very fabric of their existence. Can their love overcome the darkness of her past, or will the secrets she keeps tear them apart forever? Will the weight of his crown tear them apart? What happens when another Alpha who is ready to accept her with her past comes into the picture?
"Is it considered betrayal to develop feelings for your best friend's boyfriend? What about when fate intervenes, and he turns out to be your destined mate? You might think it's luck and thank the moon goddess for such a twist of fate. That's what I believed until the love of my life uttered those dreaded words: 'I want a divorce!' As I stared at the pregnancy test in my hands, I realized it was better to keep my secret to myself. My name is Violet, and this is my story."
Joelle thought she could change Adrian's heart after three years of marriage, but she realized too late that it already belonged to another woman. "Give me a baby, and I'll set you free." The day Joelle went into labor, Adrian was traveling with his mistress on his private jet. "I don't care whom you love. My debt is paid. From now on, we have nothing to do with each other." Not long after Joelle left, Adrian found himself begging on his knees. "Please come back to me."
For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club. Shocked by the desires these men aroused in her, she was disappointed to learn that they were masters seeking a slave to divide and conquer. She couldn't afford the fee, and she also realized that they were outside her league. Emily hurriedly left the club, feeling disappointed and depressed, unaware that she had also caught the group's attention. A world of wicked pleasure, three handsome men. Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.
Life was perfect until she met her boyfriend's big brother. There was a forbidden law in the Night Shade Pack that if the head Alpha rejected his mate, he would be stripped of his position. Sophia's life would get connected with the law. She was an Omega who was dating the head Alpha's younger brother. Bryan Morrison, the head Alpha, was not only a cold-blooded man but also a charming business tycoon. His name was enough to cause other packs to tremble. He was known as a ruthless man. What if, by some twist of destiny, Sophia's path were to intertwine with his?
She thought she was the love of his life, and he became the love of her life that fateful day she had seen him at the pack's party. Selene Grace was only a replica of Alpha Leo's real mate, and when he spotted her, Leo immediately claimed her as his Luna in order to suppress the rumors of him being mateless. Being unable to conceive turns Selene's marriage into a nightmare, and as if that wasn't enough, Alpha Leo finally reunites with his long time lover and mate, rejecting a pregnant Selene as a result. 5 years later, Selene, a now successful doctor, receives an invitation to the moon shadow pack in order to rid the pack of a deadly disease which has struck it. Will Selene return back to the pack which had caused her so much pain, and what would she do when she realizes that she is mated to the Alpha who had betrayed her in the past?
As a simple assistant, messaging the CEO in the dead of night to request shares of adult films was a bold move. Bethany, unsurprisingly, didn't receive any films. However, the CEO responded that, while he had no films to share, he could offer a live demonstration. After a night filled with passion, Bethany was certain she'd lose her job. But instead, her boss proposed, "Marry me. Please consider it." "Mr. Bates, you're kidding me, right?"
