She'd healed me.With her own two hands.
And right now, all I wanted to do was fuck her into next week.
“We are starting the bidding at fifty grand.Now, which one of you fine gentlemen will be the first to bid?”
Raul immediately put up his hand.
The auctioneer shouted, “All right!Raul is lookin’ for a new girl to break in!”The guys in the room all hooted and whistled.
Every guy in the room cheered.
I felt sick.
Francesca’s eyes—her gorgeous, frightened eyes—shot from Raul to me.
Fuck.
She was terrified.
I could feel it in my bones.
Just the thought of Raul’s disgusting hands on her made me want to rip his head off.
“One hundred thousand,” I said as I raised my hand.

“What the fuck are you thinking?”I asked Francesca.She was currently fighting with my suit jacket.I'd forced her to put it on after I'd—bought her from the auction.My jacket was huge on her, and she was having difficulty rolling up the sleeves to grab the seat belt.
I didn't wait for her to put it on.
As soon as her ass was in my car, I got us the fuck out of that parking lot.
Raul was pissed.
To say the least.
He'd wanted Francesca.
And he had been willing to pay big money for her.
But that just wasn't going to happen.
Because she was mine.
And no dirty, slimy asshole was going to steal her away from me.No matter how much fucking trouble I was going to get into for doing this.
Nick and Carlo were going to have my head for this.Not only had I fucked up—I'd fucked up royally.There was no mending fences with Raul.Not now.Not since I'd taken a new, shiny plaything from him.
I'd shut him down when he threatened me.But I didn't give one fuck.Francesca was mine.Not his.
Never his.
“I'm trying to find my freaking seat belt!”Francesca yelled back at me.She was fucking cute when she was frustrated.“It looks like I'm going to need it since you're speeding,” she kept on with her rant.Which was also fucking adorable.
I slowed and pulled to the side of the road.Once we were stopped, I reached over her and grabbed the seat belt.She was so close, I could smell her subtle floral scent.
