~ Avelyn ~

My throat dried and my mind sobered up instantly.

What does this mean? Did Xander recognize me?

I didn’t know what to do, how to react. Would covering my chest with my hands change anything now?

My lips trembled but I couldn’t speak. At the very least I should refute his accusations but if I speak I’ll literally shoot myself in the leg.

So I shook my head, frantically.

But I couldn’t see his expression since he was backing the moonlight. All that was left was the cast of shadows fr

  • Switched at the Mafia Auction   Chapter 255: Three days

    ~ Avelyn ~Dominic didn’t step inside.Somehow, that made everything worse.He remained where he was, just beyond the threshold, as though crossing into my space wasn’t necessary to take control of it. The air between us felt tight, stretched thin by everything unsaid, everything already understood.I didn’t invite him in.He didn’t ask again.Instead, he slipped one hand into his coat and pulled out a small card, holding it between his fingers for a moment before extending it toward me. I hesitated, my eyes flickering from the object to his face, searching for something—anything—that might give me room to breathe in this situation.There was none.Slowly, I reached out and took it.It was an address.A time.Three days from now.My fingers tightened slightly around the card as the meaning settled in.Dominic watched me take it in, his expression unchanged, as if this was nothing more than a simple exchange.“Three days,” he said, his voice calm, measured in a way that made it harder

  • Switched at the Mafia Auction   Chapter 254: Doorstep

    ~ Avelyn ~The man standing in front of me didn’t look surprised to see me. If anything, there was a quiet certainty in his expression, as though this moment had already played out in his mind long before I opened the door. He stood there with an ease that didn’t belong to ordinary men, dressed too neatly, too composed for someone tied to the kind of world I had tried so desperately to escape.And yet, I knew exactly who he was.I hadn’t spent enough time around him to claim familiarity, but it didn’t take familiarity to recognize danger. It lived in the way he held himself, in the stillness that wasn’t empty but controlled, deliberate. The kind of stillness that made your instincts rise before your thoughts could catch up.Dominic.My fingers tightened around the edge of the door, every instinct screaming at me to shut it, to lock it, to pretend this wasn’t happening—but my body refused to cooperate. I couldn’t move, not when his gaze had already slipped past me, uninvited, scanning

  • Switched at the Mafia Auction   Chapter 253: Found

    ~ Avelyn ~Kyle didn’t say anything when he handed it to me.He didn’t look at me either.It was such a small thing, the way his fingers brushed mine for the briefest second before letting go, but it felt heavier than anything he had ever said to me. There was no anger in his face this time, no sharp edge to his voice like in the car, no accusation hanging between us. Just… absence.And somehow, that hurt more.I stood there, watching his retreating back, waiting—foolishly—for him to turn around, to say something, anything, even if it was harsh. Even if it was cruel. I would have taken that over this silence.But he didn’t stop.He didn’t turn.He just walked away like there was nothing left to hold on to.My fingers tightened around the small box in my hand, and for a moment, I didn’t open it. I just stood there, staring at it like it might burn me if I looked too closely. Like I already knew what it was, and opening it would only make it real.When I finally did, my breath caught in

  • Switched at the Mafia Auction   Chapter 252: Wherever she had gone

    ~ Veronica ~Failure had a sound.It wasn’t loud and it wasn’t dramatic.It was quiet… suffocating… the kind that sat in your chest long after everything had gone still.And right now, it was all I could hear.The teacup in my hand trembled ever so slightly before I set it down with controlled precision against the saucer. Anyone looking at me would think I was calm. Composed. Untouched.But beneath the surface, something vicious clawed its way up my throat.Last night had been perfect.Every detail accounted for. Every movement calculated. I had waited, endured, tolerated his distance for over a year, playing the role expected of me while he looked through me like I was nothing more than a decorative piece placed at his side.A wife in name.An afterthought in truth.And yet… I had still been patient. Because patience, I had learned, always paid off.Except last night—My fingers curled slightly on the table as the memory replayed itself whether I wanted it to or not.The tray had

  • Switched at the Mafia Auction   Chapter 251: Last piece

    — Xander —Waking up felt… wrong.Not in the way one would expect after a long night or too little sleep, but in a way that sat deeper than the body, something that lingered beneath the skin like a memory refusing to fully surface.My eyes opened to the ceiling, unmoving for a moment as I let the silence settle.The room was too still, too quiet.And yet—Not untouched.A faint crease formed between my brows as I pushed myself up slowly, the sheets shifting against my skin. The first thing I registered was the dull heaviness in my limbs, not exhaustion, not quite pain either, but something in between. My body felt used, strained in a way that didn’t align with rest.That alone was enough to make me pause.I sat there for a moment longer, letting my gaze drift across the room.Nothing appeared out of place at first glance.The furniture stood exactly where it should. The lighting was unchanged. The structure of the room remained intact, familiar.But the longer I looked…The more the

  • Switched at the Mafia Auction   Chapter 250: Begun to break

    ~ Avelyn ~The hospital lights felt too bright, too clean and unforgiving.By the time we got there, my body had started to shut down in ways I couldn’t explain. It wasn’t sleep. It wasn’t relief either. It felt like something in me had simply reached its limit and decided to stop responding.But my mind…My mind refused to stop.Ciara.That was the only thing keeping me upright.Kyle didn’t waste a second. The moment we stepped through those doors, he was already moving ahead of me, his voice sharp, controlled, authoritative in a way I had only seen a few times before.“Clear a room. Now.”People moved.Fast.Not because they understood everything, but because something in his tone didn’t allow hesitation.I followed behind him, clutching the small storage pack that held the blood. I retrieved it from Kyle just before we stepped out of the car. My fingers had gone numb around it, but I didn’t loosen my grip. I couldn’t.It felt like the only thing tethering me to reality.Ciara was

    Kyle’s face is the first thing my brain registered. Not his body, not the room, not Ariana’s silhouette behind him.Just his face.Those eyes that used to look at me like I was someone worth knowing were now wide and terrified, like I’m the intruder in my own nightmare.My hand is still curled arou

    ~ Avelyn ~But I knew one thing…“What you’re asking,” I said slowly, my voice dry, “is too much, Kyle.”His face shifted instantly into an expression that wasn’t anger or shock, it was pain. The kind that looks earned. He dragged a hand down his face like he was bracing himself for impact.“I kno

    ~ Avelyn ~I stepped inside before I could lose my nerve.The study was dim in that expensive way, warm amber lights tucked in the corners, not meant to comfort anyone, just to make the man occupying the room look like he owned the night. Xander didn’t look up at first. He sat behind the desk, one
