After a long, refreshing shower, I threw on a pair of soft lavender athletic shorts and a matching crop top. Feeling clean and relaxed, I sank into the couch, joining my mom and brother for a casual chat.
"So, when are you finally going to face me in tennis, slowpoke?" Dylan teased with a grin.
"Whenever you're ready to lose," I fired back, smirking.
"Ha ha," he laughed. "I'm not going to lose. I'm going to kick your a—"
He was cut off by my mom's warning tone.
"Dylan Alexander Hayes," my mom said firmly. "That sentence better end in 'butt.'"
"It was," he said quickly, then continued, "Anyway, you ready to lose?"
"Pssh," I giggled. "I'm ready to kick some… booty."
"That's my girl," my mom smirked.
Dylan and I grabbed rackets from the gym and walked outside to our tennis court. My mom grabbed a bag of tennis balls from the garage and handed them to us with a smile.
"Alright, let's do this!" Dylan yelled, serving the ball at me.
Luckily, I managed to return it and with a solid hit. The ball bounced back and forth for a bit before Dylan sent it flying out of bounds.
"Nooo," he groaned dramatically.
"Fifteen to zero!" my mom called from her chair on the patio. "Or fifteen–love."
Dylan and I played three full matches of tennis. Sadly, I only won the first one.
"I'm the winner!" Dylan chanted proudly. He'd been repeating it for the past ten minutes, and I was seriously starting to get annoyed.
As we walked onto the patio, I grabbed a tennis ball and tossed it at the back of his head.
"Really?" he frowned, then grabbed Mom's lemonade and took a long drink.
"I was drinking that," my mom frowned.
"Sorry, Mama," Dylan apologized, rubbing the back of his head.
I poured myself a glass of lemonade, only for Dylan to snatch it right out of my hand.
"Thanks, sis," he smirked, dropping into one of the patio chairs.
"You're welcome," I muttered under my breath as I poured another glass.
I sat down beside him, taking a small sip just as my mom started to speak.
"So, how was col—" she started, but she was cut off by the sound of the sliding door opening. My dad stepped out onto the patio.
"Dad!" I shouted, jumping up to hug him.
But the second I wrapped my arms around him, I knew something was off. He didn't hug me back. I stepped away and looked up at him. His eyes were glassy, filled with unshed tears, and guilt weighed heavy on his face.
"What's wrong, Dad?" Dylan asked cautiously.
My mom stood up, her voice tight with concern. "What's going on, William?"
"I-I'm so sorry, Adriana," my dad choked out, his voice breaking.
"What happened?" I asked, my chest tightening.
He looked at me, tears spilling down his cheeks.
"I-I sold you," he said, barely above a whisper.
"You did what?!" I shouted, my voice rising with disbelief and panic.

SOLD TO THE GANG LEADER Chapter 7: Chains of Jealousy
Adriana's POVThe sunlight creeping in through the curtains warmed my face, but I didn’t move.I lay still, curled under the blankets, eyes closed like I hadn’t heard a thing last night. Like I hadn’t frozen at the sound of his voice. Like I didn’t spend the rest of the night staring at the wall with my back to him while his arm stayed possessively around my waist.When I felt him shift behind me, I forced my breaths to stay steady.“Morning,” he muttered.I hummed a soft sound in response, like I’d just woken up like I didn’t hear him say she doesn’t know yet.“Sleep okay?” he asked.I nodded, still not looking at him. “Mm-hmm.”There was a pause. Then the bed shifted as he got up.“Breakfast will be ready downstairs.”And just like that, he was gone.The moment the door shut behind him, I opened my eyes. My chest felt tight, like something heavy was sitting on it.She doesn’t know yet.I did now.I slipped out of bed slowly, letting my feet touch the cool floor. The silence in the r
SOLD TO THE GANG LEADER Chapter 6: Meet The Dynasty
Adriana's POVI stood in the bathroom, towel clutched to my chest, heart still thundering from what had just happened. My skin buzzed where he’d touched me not just his hand, but his voice. The way he said I was his…It shouldn’t have made my stomach flutter. It shouldn’t have left me staring at the wall like some lovesick idiot.I didn’t want to like him.But I couldn’t lie to myself anymore not completely.There was something about Hunter Rivers that made it impossible to think straight. He was danger dressed in leather and silence. He confused me. One minute he was cold, the next… possessive. And not the kind of possessive that felt cruel the kind that made my chest ache in ways I didn’t understand.I stepped into the shower, turning the water hot enough to sting, scrubbing hard like I could wash the memory of his voice off me.But no matter how hot the water ran, I couldn’t shake him.By the time I came out, wrapped in a towel, he was gone. Good. I needed space.But of course, spa
SOLD TO THE GANG LEADER Chapter 5: What He Calls Home
Adriana's POVHunter opened a door at the end of the hall and stepped aside, motioning for me to enter.I hesitated, then stepped inside and immediately froze.The room was massive, like the rest of the house, but it didn’t feel lived in. The walls were a deep gray, the furniture sharp-edged and expensive. A king-sized bed dominated the center, dressed in black sheets that matched the heavy curtains drawn tight across the windows. A single dim lamp glowed in the corner, casting long shadows.It looked like something out of a movie. Cold. Luxurious. Lifeless.“This is…” I trailed off, unsure what to say.“Our bedroom,” Hunter said simply, brushing past me. He threw his jacket onto a leather chair and sat on the edge of the bed, elbows on his knees. “Get used to it.”I stood near the doorway, arms wrapped around the present like a shield. “Do you always decorate like you’re trying to intimidate someone?”That earned me a glance. Not a smile. Just a glance.He leaned back slightly, expre
SOLD TO THE GANG LEADER Chapter 4: New Walls, New Chains
Adriana's POVI wasn't sure what to say; words seemed to slip away the moment I saw him.He was undeniably hot. His muscular frame commanded attention, and his jawline, sharp and defined, gave his face an almost dangerous allure.Is this Hunter?The man my brother warned me about?"A-are you Hunter?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper."That would be me," he said, a smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. His confidence was unnerving, and yet… oddly magnetic.Well… this might not be as bad as I thought."What's in the box?" he asked, nodding toward the present in my lap.I glanced down, suddenly aware of it again. That's when it hit me. The car was moving. We had already left my house."I-I don't know," I said quietly. "I'm supposed to open it later."Hunter let out a low chuckle, the sound rough and unsettling. Without warning, he shifted closer, closing the space between us until I could feel his presence press into mine."While we're still on good terms," he said calmly, "t
SOLD TO THE GANG LEADER Chapter 3: Who Is Hunter Rivers?
Adriana's POV"What do you mean you sold me?" I asked, my voice trembling."I sold you," he sighed, looking down."To who??" Mom yelled, her face contorted with anger. "Why?""Hunter Rivers," Dad gritted his teeth and huffed."Hunter Rivers?" Dylan raged, clearly furious."Who's Hunter Rivers?" I asked, my frustration growing. But no one answered me."Why on earth did you sell her to Hunter Rivers??" Mom yelled, her voice shaking with disbelief. "Why did you sell her in the first place?!""I didn't have a choice!!!" Dad snapped, his eyes wild. "Here were my options: watch him kill all of you, or give him Adriana. Luckily, he bought her for $100,000,000. But she has to move in with him… today.""Today?!" I argued, feeling my heart race. "I just got here! And I don't even know who Hunter Rivers is!!".Dad sighed and motioned for me to follow him. We all followed him into his office, and he told me to sit down. He took his seat behind the desk and let out another heavy sigh."Now Adriana

SOLD TO THE GANG LEADER Chapter 1: Home Again
Adriana's POVIt felt amazing to finally finish college. Four years away from home, and now I'm wondering how much has changed since I left.The plane ride from Otranto to California felt like it dragged on forever. I had a window seat in first class, so it wasn't terrible, but even with the extra legroom and decent food, I was more than ready to be off that plane. There's only so much sitting still a person can take especially after four years away from home.Once we landed, I made my way to baggage claim and grabbed all of my luggage, which let's be honest was probably more than I needed. But hey, I was moving back home. A girl has to be prepared.I scanned the crowd, expecting to see my parents waiting for me with excited smiles and maybe even a welcome-home sign. But instead, my eyes landed on a man in a dark suit holding a small white sign with my name typed neatly across it: Adriana Hayes.A chauffeur. Of course.I sighed, half amused, half confused, and made my way over to him
