Loner Hades

Sophia felt guilty for making Helen and her two friends face a hearing for breaking the school rules on bullying. They always made things difficult for Sophia, but the girl instead responded with sincere kindness. Sophia still hoped that Helen would realize her mistake and become a better person. "I'm glad to see that arrogant girl being punished," Bianca said with a satisfied smile. Sophia looked at Helen and felt sorry for her instead. "I actually feel sorry for her," Sophia replied. "Don't be too kind like that. Helen deserves punishment for her actions," Bianca explained. Sophia looked at Erick who had been observing the hearing. There was a teacher who acted as a judge and made the decision about the punishment for the rule-breakers. Five students wearing red robes like those worn by Erick were seen around him. They seemed to be the leaders of the other dormitories. There were five dormitory leaders there. A pair of Fresh Blood dormitory leaders and a pair of Sweet Blood dormitory leaders. Meanwhile, there was one more leader who was considered to represent the teachers in making the decision. Sophia remembered Bianca once saying that she wanted to be one of the dormitory leaders when they were 17 years old. Sophia could imagine her friend looking cool and authoritative like the other dorm leaders. "I'm satisfied enough if Helen is punished by cleaning the bathroom because that way she will feel how to do a job she has never done before," Rosie said happily. Rosie was one of the students who had been a victim of Helen's bullying, so she still harbored resentment towards her. Sophia wouldn't break Rosie's right to express her feelings. "I think she won't do it because she must have children who are willing to do anything for her," Bianca concluded, followed by a nod from Sophia. She understood Helen's habits and was convinced that the girl would be exempt from punishment. Helen had a considerable influence at school. "Anyway, let her behave as she wishes as long as it doesn't interfere with other people's interests. Actually, I wish they had never bothered me, but the reality is they only caused problems for me," Sophia lamented. The girl felt sad every time she thought about how they mocked her for her skin color. Sophia also didn't want anything different from herself, but what could she do? Everything happened according to each person's destiny. "The hearing is over, isn't it better that we leave now!" Rosie suggested while glancing at Helen, who did not show any remorse on her face. The girl still looked angry and would not lower her dignity just to apologize. "Let's go!" Sophia and Bianca replied in unison. They left the hearing room feeling happy because they would have fun all night. Bianca decided to stay in Sophia and Rosie's dormitory. They wanted to spend the whole night chatting and staying up late because tomorrow was a school holiday. They would have all night. "How about tomorrow we visit the neighboring village? I heard there is a river with very clear water. We can have fun and swim there!" Rosie suggested enthusiastically. The girl always had the spirit of adventure when it came to vacationing and traveling. "Your idea sounds good," Bianca replied with a wink. "Sophia!" Erick called out to Sophia, running a little to catch up with her. It seemed that he wanted to convey something important to Sophia after the hearing. "Kak Erick, what's up?" Sophia asked curiously. Bianca and Rosie looked at Erick with curiosity. They also did not know the purpose and intention of Erick meeting Sophia after the hearing. "Thank you for coming to the hearing," Erick said sincerely. Sophia replied with a sweet smile. "Isn't it my duty to attend? You don't have to hesitate and thank me," Sophia replied. "I have a gift for you," Erick said while handing over a cute little wolf-shaped keychain. Sophia examined the small object on her palm. She did not expect Erick to be so considerate in giving her a gift. "This is my work in class. I hope you like it," added Erick, blushing. It seemed that he liked Sophia. "I am very grateful for this cute gift," Sophia replied with shining eyes. She had never received a gift from a guy before. "I'll excuse myself first!" said Erick before leaving the three of them. Rosie and Bianca were silent watching how good Erick was to Sophia. They did not expect their friends to have a fan like a dormitory leader. They were very proud. "Hmmmmm, isn't Kak Erick romantic?" teased Rosie while winking at Bianca, who also laughed at Sophia's face. "What, this is not like what you thought," Sophia protested shyly. Her face was blushing. "What is on our minds?" Rosie continued. Bianca laughed because she felt Sophia was losing the argument in front of her and Rosie. The three of them were like other teenagers who were enjoying the beautiful moments in their lives. "By the way, what about Andrew Davidson? Did he lose to the dormitory leader?" Bianca added, imme

Isla Hart has spent her entire life protected from the truth. Sheltered in the cold, opulent mansion her father built with wealth stained by secrets, she has never known the world outside the safety of her gilded cage. She's been raised in the comfort of ignorance-her innocence preserved like a precious gem, untouched by the horrors lurking just beneath the surface. But nothing lasts forever. Her father, a man with debts deeper than anyone knows, has been in the claws of a dangerous criminal syndicate for years. And now, with everything collapsing around him, he makes an unthinkable decision to save himself: he will auction off his daughter's virginity to the highest bidder. The price of her body is nothing compared to the price of her father's survival. At twenty-one, Isla is thrust into a world she never knew existed-one where power and corruption reign, and she is nothing more than a transaction, a pawn in a game she doesn't understand. An underground auction, hidden in the dark corners of New York's criminal elite, will determine her fate. But as the bidding begins, there's one man who stands out from the rest. Vincenzo "Vince" Moretti is not like the others. A mafia don who commands respect through bloodshed and fear, Vince is a man who has made his fortune off ruthlessness. At thirty-seven, he has built an empire that stretches across continents, feared by everyone who dares cross him. Cruel, cold, and indifferent, Vince has never allowed weakness to cloud his judgment. But when his eyes land on Isla, everything shifts. She is an innocent, untouched by the darkness of the world he controls. She's everything he shouldn't want, but something about her purity calls to him. Vince outbids every man in the room, securing Isla as his own. She is no longer just a piece of property for sale-she is now his possession. A contract signed in blood, a life bound by the chains of obligation, desire, and power. To Isla, the world as she knew it shatters. Her father's debts are wiped clean in exchange for her innocence, but in the cold, unyielding world of Vince's mafia empire, she is now nothing more than a beautiful hostage-trapped in a life of submission. But with Vince, things are different. He is cruel to everyone else, manipulative and tyrannical in his dealings. Yet, when it comes to Isla, there's a strange gentleness. A possessive tenderness. He keeps her close, under his watchful eye, as if she's a rare, delicate thing that no one else can touch. But his protection comes at a price. Vince will not let her go. He will mold her, shape her, and possess her in ways she never thought possible. With every passing day, the line between desire and control blurs. Vince isn't just taking her body-he wants her heart, her mind, her soul. And as the days turn to weeks, Isla finds herself torn between survival and submission. She is drawn to him in a way she cannot escape, yet terrified of what she's becoming. But a storm is coming. Luca Santoro-Vince's former ally, now his deadliest rival-has been waiting for a weakness. A crack in Vince's otherwise unbreakable armor. And he has found it in Isla. Luca knows that Vince's obsession with Isla is his greatest vulnerability. He will stop at nothing to break her spirit and use her to bring Vince to his knees. His plan is simple: destroy Vince's empire by destroying Isla. Luca doesn't just want to own Isla-he wants to destroy what she means to Vince, and he will stop at nothing to make her his. The clock is ticking. As the tension between Vince and Luca escalates, Isla's world becomes even more dangerous. The mafia's brutal games are no longer just about loyalty and power-they're about survival. But the deeper Isla falls into Vince's world, the more she realizes that the man who controls everything around her is also controlling her heart. She cannot leave him, yet she knows that staying might cost her everything. Is she willing to lose herself in a man who sees her as both a possession and a passion? In a world where love and pain collide, Isla must decide if she can find freedom in submission or if her innocence will be the very thing that destroys her
