Dylan From We Bought A Zoo

Bought by the Bratva Boss Sofia Petrova has spent her life surviving in silence under the control of her abusive stepfather. But when his gambling debts spiral out of control, he makes a choice that destroys everything. He sells her. Dragged into a secret trafficking auction where powerful men bid on women like property, Sofia is forced onto a stage and stripped of every choice she has ever had. Just when the bidding spirals beyond control, one man ends it with a chilling offer. Ten million dollars. Alexei Volkov is a feared Bratva Pakhan, a man known for his cold control and ruthless power. He doesn’t buy Sofia for pleasure, he buys her for leverage. Her stepfather holds information about a murder tied to a dangerous network, and Sofia is the key to getting it. Taken to his penthouse, she is forced into a deal: pretend to be his wife and stay under his protection, or be thrown back into the world that already sold her once. But nothing about Alexei is simple. The closer Sofia gets to him, the more the lines blur between fear and something far more dangerous. What begins as a transaction slowly turns into obsession. And as secrets unravel, Sofia realizes the trafficking ring that sold her is tied to Alexei’s own world. Now she isn’t just leverage. She’s a target. And when enemies come for her, Sofia is forced to face a terrifying truth… The man who bought her might be the only one who can save her.

Emily Silver was 17 years old when she became an orphan. Her father was assassinated by a planned coup which was led by his Beta and her mother was beheaded right in front of her.

Along the line, he found out they had the same desire; the thirst for revenge. With revenge on both of their hearts, they start a wild journey of hate, betrayal, secrets, and above all love.

After spending the past month working overtime and burning the midnight oil every day, I finally closed a business deal that's worth 50 million dollars before the company's annual dinner. My boss, William Lewis, begins giving away the end-of-the-year bonuses with a wide smile on his face. "The finance director helped our company save three million dollars worth of taxes. He will receive a villa by the river as a gift." "The head of IT led the team and solved various difficult problems. He shall receive 200 thousand dollars in cash." "Lily Lane, the receptionist, has always shown a great attitude whenever she greets the clients. She shall receive a Hermes bag." When it's my turn, I wipe the sweat off my palms before accepting my bonus. But upon opening the giftbox, I see three entrance tickets to the local zoo instead. "You must be sick of receiving commissions all the time as the sales director. Why don't you take advantage of this holiday to spend some quality time with your family?" On the way home, I dial a number. "Mr. Skylar, there's a problem with the 50-million-dollar contract. Let's discuss it later."

Just one night — born from long hesitation and an unusual decision — changes their lives forever. Are they ready to face the consequences of a passion so wild… and so bought? Amidst fateful coincidences and the twisted games of destiny, can they still recognize love when it finally appears?

Natalie Grimaldi has always been a fighter. Rebellious, sharp-tongued, and unwilling to break under pressure, she’s spent most of her life enduring the cruelty of her uncle, Gideon Grimaldi , a greedy man who raised her only to use her as a pawn. When Gideon announces that she’s to marry Viktor Roman, a Russian billionaire twice her age, in exchange for a debt settlement, Natalie is furious, broken and frustrated. On the day of the wedding something unexpected happens she is claimed in a contract marriage by California's most feared Italian Mafia family, LORENZO DE LUCA. She finds herself being sold twice!! Lorenzo doesn't know her name, doesn't care about her except his own gains(the real reason he bought her) but something in her fire, her refusal to bow, stirred something long buried in him. He buys her for something much more deeper —nothing more. But Natalie refuses to break. Even as he claims her body, her life, she hides her heart, planning escape, revenge, and freedom. But the longer she remains under Lorenzo's roof, the more she begins to see cracks in his stone facade: his silence, his shadows, his haunting grief and most of all HIS SECRET. The real reason he bought her. And against every wall she’s built, Natalie begins to feel the tug of something she vowed never to give him—sympathy. Maybe even more. As Natalie secretly builds her own power, forging connections and learning the dark truths behind Lorenzo's empire, she must face the hardest question of all: Can she destroy the man who bought her, if he’s the first one who ever saw her? Or will she fall for the devil who was never meant to love?

At the underground auction house, tonight's grand finale was billed as a 'premium wolf pet'. Inside the cage, a male wolf knelt with a bite-prevention muzzle locked around his neck. He was clearly a prisoner, yet his eyes held no trace of submission when he lifted his head. Instead, he looked like he was judging every single person in the room. His gaze cut through the crowd and locked onto me. My heart stuttered as excitement flooded my system. I finally knew what true attraction felt like. A well-dressed man in the front row raised his paddle. "$100 million." Gasps erupted across the venue. It was an astronomical opening bid. I smiled and slowly raised my paddle too. My voice brought the hall to dead silence. "$500 million."

I married Adrian Blackwood to survive. He married me for revenge. Adrian Blackwood is a ruthless CEO powerful, cold, and untouchable. Our marriage was never about love. It was a contract designed to punish a family that destroyed his past, and I was the price they had to pay. Trapped in a life of control, secrets, and psychological warfare, I quickly learned that surviving Adrian was harder than fearing him. Every rule he set was meant to break me. Every silence hid another truth. But when enemies rise and buried crimes begin to surface, the line between hatred and protection starts to blur. Loving him could destroy me. Leaving him might kill me. This is not a sweet romance. It is a dark story of power, obsession, and the painful cost of redemption.
