Three mafia kings bid for her.

***

She was mated to the Alpha who never touches her. No one respects her. She had always lived, like a mouse, stepping around everyone, apologizing to the people who stepped on her tail.

So she escaped. 

In the new pack, she might look like a rogue omega, but she's finally free! Until...

Celine woke up slowly. She tried opening her eyes, but it was dark. Her head swam, and she felt nauseous like she had been drinking, but she hadn't been…

Where was she? What was going on?*

The noise outside was too loud for her to make any sense of it. She tried moving around to figure out what was going on.

"Ten thousand? Anyone for ten thousand?"

Celine kept her eyes tightly shut, facing the terrible realization that she was being auctioned off. 

"Fifteen!"
"Sixteen!"
"Nineteen!"

She ignored the cheers.

"Five hundred," Another powerful voice spoke up, and Celine felt her knees buckle.

*What was going on? This wasn't right*… No one should want her, so why was…

The auctioneer didn't take a break this time, the excitement in his voice palpable as the bid only climbed higher and higher.

***

Celine is the orphan Luna of Moonstone Pack. She's hated by the pack and treated like the runt despite her position. After years of enduring the cheating of her mate, the Alpha of Moonstone Pack, and the maltreatment from her pack members, she decides to leave, running off to Reef City to start a new life.

Her plans are instantly cut short when she's kidnapped and auctioned off, and she's bought by none other than one of the Mafia Alpha Kings running Reef City, Asher Knight.

The hotel launch was starkly different from what Celine had been expecting. It was nothing like the event from the previous night; a classy luncheon party that was held on the rooftop of the hotel being launched.
It was an open-air event, quietly murmuring guests milling around equally dressed forma...
