What Is The Setting Of 'For Sale Fallen Lady Never Used'?

"Thirty million" I heard a male voice echo round the walls of the hall which silenced everyone. Who would bid that high just to buy me? "Thirty million dollars" the male voice spoke up once again, a young man striding confidently forward like he owned the very building with his bidding card raised up. He was eighty percent taller than everyone in attendance. I sucked in breath at his refined but cold appearance. His tuxedo hugged his body and showed of his impeccable muscles. His dark long hair was slick and let to fall, not a single strand out of place. He had the profile of a greek God but his features lacked warmth and empathy. His brown steel eyes burrowed into mine, a look of disgust on his face for me. "Sold!" the chairman hit the gavel on the table after a brief moment of silence since no one else was willing to bid higher. A wave of ovation took the hall, men chattering amongst themselves and whistling. "Get her ready and bring her to me" he pivoted and sharply ordered one of the armed bodyguards standing close to the podium. He owns me now. **** When a ruthless mafia lord bids for an innocent girl, can her innocense survive in the abyss of his darkness?

I died with my husband's betrayal on my lips and my unborn child in my womb. One moment I was Mia Weston — billionaire, wife, mother-to-be. The next, I was gone. Erased. Traded like a chess piece by the man who swore to love me forever. Then I woke up. Silk sheets. Marble walls. A maid calling me "My Lady." And a father I had never met looking me dead in the eyes saying — "You have been promised to King Zyren of the Draconis Throne. You leave at sunrise." I thought I was dreaming. I was wrong. King Zyren is not a man. He is ancient, ruthless, and devastatingly beautiful in the way that only dangerous things are. He doesn't smile. He doesn't explain. He simply looks at me like I am something he has been waiting for — and that look alone makes my whole body tremble. He calls me his traded bride. I call him my nightmare. But nightmares don't look at you like you are the only breathable air in a burning room. Nightmares don't press you against cold stone walls and whisper "You will learn your place, little human" with a voice so deep it rewrites your bones. And nightmares definitely don't make you forget — even for one dangerous, breathless second — the man who killed you. I was sold to settle a debt. He had waited centuries for exactly me. Neither of us was prepared for what came next.

I have nothing to lose but to gain everything if I can't do this. I'm just three days away from losing everything. I'm so grateful that my parents aren't around to see me like this. I'm about to auction off the last thing of value I have to gain everything back. He's completely a stranger. I am not allowed to have a glimpse of him, not even on the first night of our. I am not a normal bride, but purchased by him in an auction. He's the highest bidder and the king of the dark world.

Sold at an auction event to pay her stepfather’s debt, Elara enters the world of Dante Moretti– a powerful Mafia king hiding a fatal illness from the world. He buys her for one purpose: to carry the heir his fiancée cannot give him. Elara wants to protect her sister. Dante wants to protect his legacy before his time runs out. Two broken lives collide, and slowly, their little deal turns into something more.

Three years ago, the third most powerful mafia family in the country was slaughtered in a single night. Every member was executed without mercy… except one. Tiana. The bastard daughter no one cared enough to kill. Spared not out of kindness, but cruelty, she is dragged away as a captive and forced to endure three years of brutality at the hands of her family’s murderers, until the vibrant girl she once was disappears completely, leaving behind a mute, obedient girl. When her captors finally grow tired of her, she is disguised as a frail boy to increase her value and is thrown into an underground auction to be sold as damaged property. Marcus Valcari, a powerful mafia boss, had no interest in buying human property that night. He only raised his paddle because his girlfriend whimsically wanted the “pretty mute boy” as a birthday gift. The very night Tiana stepped into the Valcari estate, she wandered into a forbidden room to find a man who had been unconscious for nearly a year. A man doctors had declared would never wake again. Don Demetri Valcari. The most feared heir of the Valcari empire. The true devil of the underworld. Perhaps out of foolishness or curiosity, Tiana touches him. At just her touch, the man wakes, and the first thing his dark eyes see after months of darkness is her. What begins as curiosity quickly turns into a a dark obsession. Now marked by the ruthless man known to never accept refusal, Tiana must survive his growing obsession while guarding her biggest secret. But the longer she stays within his clutches, the harder it becomes to maintain her disguise. If he discovers the truth, there is no telling whether he will protect her… or ruin her completely for deceiving him.

He bought me back like you buy a car. Now… I belong to him. When her father loses everything gambling, Léna finds herself sold to a wealthy stranger to pay off his debts. She thinks it's a bad joke… until she recognizes the icy gaze of the man before her. Ilyès Blackwood. The man she slapped in public two years earlier after a disturbing night she'd rather forget. The man she's never seen again. The man who hates her. He wants neither her love nor her respect. He wants her submission. Her silence. And her body. He'll do whatever it takes to make her his entirely, with or without her consent.
