Lahat ng Kabanata ng Sold to Mr. Mafia: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

Iris “Ouch! Shit!” I screamed as I rolled off the bed, slamming my back against the ground. I groaned, standing up and trying to sit back on the bed when I realized I was in a strange room. Wait—wasn’t I supposed to be…? Oh no! Realization hit me as soon as I recalled what had happened last night. I needed to get back to the basement before Damon returned. Panicking, I quickly ran out of the room, only to freeze when I saw Damon sitting on the couch, a steaming cup of coffee in one hand and a newspaper in the other. His sharp gaze shifted from the newspaper to me. My instincts made me step back. His cold eyes were terrifying, like they could burn straight into my soul. “G-Good morning, M-Master,” I stammered, struggling to form words as nervousness gripped me. “Come here,” Damon’s cold voice resounded in the quiet room. I hesitated. Why was everything so silent? Th

Iris pov"Get lost!" Damon yelled, shoving me directly to the floor. I stumbled, my knee hitting the edge of the table."Argh, shit!" I couldn't help screaming in pain. Damon walked out with an angered expression.Why was he so angry? I hadn't done anything. I couldn't help crying out loud as my knee began to ache. It felt like my bones were breaking off as I stood up.Limping to my room, I wore another maiden dress to quickly make dinner for Damon. It was the first time I'd cooked in such a huge kitchen, and using an automatic fire was a novelty. It happened to light up without doing anything. I seized the impulse to place my hands to check if it was real because I knew very well it would hurt me.I was determined to make nice food with my favorite recipe. I was so happy after leaving the church. I hadn't cooked and was given different disgusting food in the slave hall.After several washings of the veggies, I sliced them perfectly thin. I could remember how Miss Manthra would pick a

IRIS POV I… I’m sorry, the man in the suit began to apologize, bowing slightly.Damon blocked my body with his towering masculine presence.“I will leave now. Take your time when you’re done…”“Why are you here?” I asked, confusion swirling in my mind.“I came to inform you about the banquet being held tomorrow night. The board of directors mentioned that you should be there, along with the hereditary…”“Leave,” Damon said, cutting him off sharply.I didn’t understand everything that was mentioned, but I knew a banquet was a party. I tried to steal a glance at Damon. Surprisingly, he was staring at me too. I quickly looked down to avoid his gaze.“Sir…”“We’ll talk in the study room. Meet me there,” Damon instructed.After the door closed, he pulled away from me, staring deeply into my eyes.“Iris,” he called out suddenly.“Yes, Master?” I replied, my heart racing.“

Iris pov"Oops, my hand slept," she said with a mischievous look on her face. She seemed to be enjoying messing with me. I dropped the cupcake back on the table and ignored her, walking away to find the washroom. I needed a tissue to wipe the liquid from my dress. "Oh my gosh, did you see Jason?""He looked so hot in that gray suit.""Right!""He looks like the man I've dreamed of.""Hey, get your eyes off my crush. You're not even qualified to be with him.""Neither are you, with that cheap dress you're wearing and the heavy makeup plastered on your face. It's covering your rotten pimples and terrible mole.""Ahh, haha, hhhh. That hit hard."Reaching the bathroom, I saw several ladies painting their lips and reapplying makeup, while discussing and insulting each other. They were too engrossed in their discussion and didn't notice my presence. I grabbed a tissue and wiped my dress.

Iris pov Under the bright, clouded light, Damon held my hands tightly, as well as my waist, while the slow sounds of the piano played in rhythm with the dance. Other boys and their patterns followed suit, while whispers of envy and jealousy from other girls filled my ears. Some expressed their displeasure, while others made positive comments; I guess everyone is indeed different in this world."Eww, of all the other girls, why her?" one girl exclaimed."She is beautiful, actually, but why does she have to be with my oppa?" another added."Hey, sit your ass down! I’ve told you he is mine, and when one is mine, he can't be anyone else's!" I wanted to yell back."Oh please, if he's yours, why then did he pick someone else? Ahhhh!" Their conversation was loud enough to reach my ears. I wished the girls who wanted Damon could come take my place. Even while I was in the banquet hall under the light, Damon was still bullying me.
