Blue Book Bidding Novels & Stories

"If you want it, I'll get it for you." She looked at him. "It's fine. I've got it." "It's not that much." Ignoring her protest, Anthony shot the bid straight to 500 thousand dollars. That was exactly Phoebe's ceiling. Alexandra caught Vanessa raising her bid paddle, then Anthony jumping in right after. It was hard not to read it as them deliberately messing with them. Her expression went cold, and she turned to Phoebe. "Do you still…" Before she could finish, Phoebe had raised her bid paddle to one million dollars.

She didn’t even seem to be worried about the auction. “Whatever,” Ryan thought and sat down. The auction soon resumed. “The current bid is at 3.5 million, by number 41, Vivian Bosch,” the auction manager said. “You can only increase the bid by ten thousands.” “3.51 million,” Adrian raised his number tag, which was 1. “3.52 million,” Vivian quickly said. “3.53 million,” Adrian said before the manager could even repat their words. “3.54 million.”

She noticed how the other tables reacted and they were nodding like they were waiting for it too. “So, let’s start the bidding. Fifty thousand dollars,” the mc smiled. “One hundred thousand,” someone raised its card. “One hundred!” the mc smiled widely. “One hundred fifty,” from the side raised its card. “Two hundred!” from the back. Yvette’s eyes narrowed. He looked at Clyde who was just sitting comfortably. Maybe he changed his mind and he doesn’t want to buy it anymore? “Two hundred twenty!” another businessman shouted. “Two hundred fifty!” “Two hundred sixty!”

The anchor goes on to blabber about the painting to create interest amongst the audience as I crane my head to look up at him with my doe-eyes and puffed lips. “I want it. Can I have it? Please...” He smiles and raises his hand to pat my head. “Let’s start the bidding! The beginning bid starts with ten grand.” Denzel calmly raises his hand. “Ten grand by Mr. Flynn. Does anyone else want to bid?”

I need help. “20 grand.” Natasha Fedrick, one of Brian’s friends, higher the bid. “25 grand.” another woman shouts. “30 grand.” “33 grand.” I caught Luke looking at me with a raised eyebrow. His eyes are asking me questions. I don’t know what to do, how to make this woman take part in this bid. What to do? “We have 50 grand. Anyone eager to higher this up?” Kelly asks. “Please, Brian, help me. I need your help.” I almost cry out.

The guy hesitates before yelling in what I presume to be frustration, “$600,000!” Mr Grim doesn’t say anything. I gaze at him, my eyes pleading with him to bid higher and shut this guy up for good but nothing. He just sits there, utterly speechless. I don’t have a problem walking out of here with either of them but for some reason, I want Mr Grim. “Going for $600,000! Anyone up for $650,000?” Mr Maguire quizzes and on getting no response, Mr Grim’s rival gets up on his feet and walks over to me, smiling victoriously.

“One and a half million.” Shocked gasps ran through the room but I merely stared at Kai, a brow raised in challenge. It had never happened before that one couple bid over the same item, but I had a plan. He lifted his paddle again. “Six million.” I outbid him each time until we got the price up to ten million. The piece was nowhere near worth ten million. “I concede,” I said with a fake sigh. The announcer looked relieved. He wiped the bead of sweat on his brows. “Ten million to Alpha Blackthorn.”

Jory states. I nod back at him, because he is right, “I’ve never heard of them starting the bid for a virgin that high! It’s not something any of us expected.” I sigh as I think. I send out a quick text while I raise my card, raising the bid. ME: Starting bid is one million... My phone pings right away. We now know what all is at stake and I just got the go ahead. After going back and forth, I hide my grin when I call out “Three million dollars!”

"She's gone crazy. This woman is really crazy. Indeed, this thing is the most tempting for alchemists." Mister Bough gritted his teeth, opened his mouth, but in the end, he did not raise the bid any further. He estimated that even if he added a few more billion, the other party would continue to increase. Judging from that woman's appearance, she was determined to go all the way. "Miss Haley, the bid has already reached one hundred and twenty billion. Mister Bough, will you raise the bid?" Sabrina's hand was already placed on the gavel. She estimated that at this point, this fiercely competitive bidding would finally come to an end.

Each time they press it their bid will be registered, it captures everything in live time so all Hunter has to do is try to stirring them into a bidding frenzy. “The rules are simple. There will be three minutes for you all to bid. I will announce the starting bid. Each bid will increase by the hundreds until we get to a thousand, then it will increase by that amount. All bidders are legally bound and are expected to wire the money immediately after the auction closes. Failure to do so will result in being asked to leave The Bluemoon pack before the games have finished and a target on yours back. In the event of a tie, we will then discuss with the two winners how they would like to proceed.
