The Auction Dramione Novels & Stories

the men marched toward us and each one grabbed a girl by the arm before dragging us toward the auction house. I did not bother struggling. My mind was too busy thinking of ways to escape. But the auction house was surrounded by guards. Only the rich and powerful came here and security was tight. We were all gathered backstage and the announcer strolled up to us. He let out a low whistle as his eyes swept over the group. "You brought some real beauties this time" he said with a sickening smile. Then he stopped right in front of me and tilted his head. "Alpha blood huh? You are quite the catch. We will start with this one" he said.

However, from the fierce bidding between the audience, it could be deduced that all of them were good things. However, Aiden didn't make a single bid at all. Instead, he had his eyes closed the entire time. A few hours later, the auctioneer's expression turned solemn. "Please bring out the last item of the auction. The finale of the Obsidian Auction." A beautiful woman came on stage holding a tray with a glass cover. The item inside was in clear view for everyone to see—an extremely strange-looking bone. Felix didn't get excited by it. When he had arrived earlier, he had already sensed it. This was definitely a real Dragonspine.

This time around, my nanny, who went to chase her off again, returned to me with a tablet. “Sir, she asked me to hand this to you. She said you would forgive her once you watched the video.” I took the tablet from her with some skepticism. There was a live broadcast playing on the screen, and the setup of the scene looked oddly familiar. I soon realized it was the same auction house where I had been brought last time. This time, it was Damien who was tied up and locked in an iron cage. Shortly after that, someone placed a bid and called Damien to the stage. His eyes were wide with horror as he was tied to the frame.

Still, she found it insane and wished it would all end. The auction went on and it kept getting worse. Aurora got curious and wondered if Lucino was going to actually make a purchase. If he is present then he wants too right? If he isn't just attending the auction for fun right? And why the hell is she his plus one for this? “And for our final item, the best on the list. She is pure, young, and beautiful. Going for ten million dollars.” he said and Aurora’s eyes widened in shock. Ten million dollars? Ten million dollars is crazy!

The auctioneer looked around the room “The starting price is a mere six million pounds.” The bids started coming in until they reached twelve million. “Twelve million ladies and gentlemen. Twelve million pounds, can I have thirteen.” Darius leaned into me, “Play along with this Kate, it may solve all our problems” “What?” I said, my eyes wide in astonishment. Darius grinned and held his paddle up. “Are you out of your tiny mind?” I seethed through gritted teeth. But it was too late, the guy from Christie's brought his hammer down. “Sold to Mr Darius Graves!

The crowd explodes. Thane closes his eyes briefly, like he's praying for patience. Dareth is grinning like he just won something. "Sold!" The auctioneer looks bewildered but determined. "Miss Talia Pierce to Lord Thane Pennance and Lord Dareth Michelson, shared contract, one hundred thousand marks each, total payment two hundred thousand marks, terms to be negotiated immediately—" The rest is drowned out by noise. Coordinators swarm the stage, escorting me off while the crowd surges with gossip and speculation. The woman in crimson catches my eye as I'm led backstage.

Everyone applauded the buyer, and then the master of ceremonies announced the next item; a Remy Martin cognac. "Are you going to bid?" Lara questioned. "Yes, soon," Greyson averted his gaze from the stage and looked at his wife. "How else will my fucking name become the talk of the elite?" The auction went on smoothly. The bids were high, and people did not seem to care about the amount of money they would leave in the hall. Valuable items were sold, and Greyson bought a Piet Mondrian painting. Lara applauded her husband, like everyone else, but deep down, she just wanted to vomit from disgust.

But when it came to me, she would probably never overcome the instinctive revulsion she felt. I clenched my fists tightly, so numb that I could no longer feel any physical pain. - On the day of the auction, as Rachel searched through her closet for an evening gown, she spoke in a casual tone. "Go take a proper shower first. I'm bringing you to an auction tonight. I heard there's a finale item everyone's dying to get their hands on. Pretty much everyone attending is there for that piece. We should go join the excitement too." The moment I heard her words, it felt like an electric shock ran through my body.

I stood there for a moment and let that settle. The bidding was already underway. A merchant I recognized, Belafair, one of the richest werewolf merchants from the Thorneclaw pack, had thrown out the whopping sum of five hundred coins on the human girl. My wolf growled. He dared to lay claim on our mate. I moved through the crowd toward the back and waited, careful not to draw too many eyes. The auctioneer opened his mouth. "Five thousand coins." I said, The square erupted in whispers. "Five thousand coins for a maid? A human at that."

I gasped as I was pushed into a massive stadium packed with people, many of them familiar faces from the elite industry. Someone put the blindfold on my eyes and whispered, "It's time to shine, my dear cousin." Then I heard her laughter, mocking me. "I'm gonna tear you apart, Danica," I whispered back. The auction's atmosphere pressed down on me, a suffocating weight of dread threatening to drown me in fear. I yearned to escape this personal hell but trapped as I was, I had no choice but to endure, clinging to the fragile hope that someone, anyone, would rescue me!
