The Mafia Lord's Captive

Alessia's life took an unexpected turn when she was granted a luxurious all-expenses-paid trip to Italy for her exceptional work. It seemed like a dream come true, but her excitement turned into nightmare when she arrived in the country. Tragically, upon her arrival, she was abducted by unknown assailants and shockingly found herself being auctioned off at a high-stakes event. As if that wasn't horrifying enough, the ruthless mafia leader, Angelo Santoro, was among the bidders. "Ten million," a voice echoed through the crowd, the bright lights blinding her and the cold handcuffs intensifying her mounting fear. Confusion clouded her mind as she struggled to comprehend the surreal situation. "Fifteen million," another voice chimed in, deepening her bewilderment. "Twenty million," another bid followed, escalating the tension in the room. Then, a menacing voice called out, "Thirty million." Silence descended, broken only by the sound of his icy words. Our eyes met, his dark gaze piercing, sending chills down her spine as the bidding reached an unimaginable height: "Two hundred million."
