ELLENA SCARLET

"Elle, are you done? The car will be here shortly." Trisha and Emily shouted.

"Almost done." I replied.

I opened the door and walked down the stairs. "Wow! Is that you Ellena? Ellena Scarlet?" They asked, acting like they don't know me.

I wore a red thigh split dress custom-made by my boss, Alexa "Xian" Johnson, herself.

"Shut up! It's just the dress and makeup that made me looked different." I said, looking at the full-length mirror.

"Who do you think will bid on us?" Emily asked, sliding inside the limousine.

"I don't t know but I hope it's not some old horny assholes." Trisha replied, shivering at the memory she had the last we had an auction.

"Don't worry, Trish. I'm sure everything will be fine. Like, what can possibly happened tonight?" I assured her, it hurts to see one of my friend in pain or despair.

We arrived after 30 minutes, the 3 of us stepped out. Cameras were everywhere, questions were being thrown at us about our love life. A guy even had a nerve to attack Emily and attempted to carry her but before he could blink, he was thrown away at the ground.

We entered inside and mingle with people we know. Alexa well known as Xian, our boss, stepped forward and announced that the auction will start shortly.

We walked away and prepared ourselves for the auction. We're all 25 girls, Emily is 12, Trisha is 19, and I'm the last one since I'm the top model of the company.

Emily was bought by Brandon Wayne, famous American actor. Trisha was bought by Sebastian McCool, famous singer. They're all lucky since Mr. Wayne and Mr. McCool is known for their kindness towards women. I know it because they bought me before and they're best friends.

Paolo, the announcer began saying some few common things about me before calling my name. I lava-walked and stopped beside him. "Let's start the bidding with 100 grands?"

"3 million!"

"4 million!"

"5.50 million!"

"6 million!"

"6.5 million!"

"6.5 million? Going once...going twice...-"

"10 million for Ms. Scarlet!" We looked at the guy who bidded that much for me, for 1 night.

Shock was understandable, if you ask me. Marco Dallas. "10 million? Going once...going twice...going trice...SOLD to Mr. Dallas!" Paolo shouted, I left the stage not standing to see Marco. Why the hell is he here?

I was about to enter my makeup room when someone pushed me inside and covered my lips, preventing me to shout. I looked at my side. It was the devil himself, Marco.

I shove away his hand and locked the door. "What are you doing? Why did you bid on me? Why are you here?" I threw him a lot of questions that I doubt he would answer.

"I need to talk to you." He sat on the sofa.

"If you want us to talk then, get out." He looked at me from head to toe before looking in my eyes.

"Why? It's not like, I haven't seen them before." My face was crimson red. What the hell is he trying to do?

"You're so lucky that I'm wearing a dress and heels or else...-"

"Or else what?" UGH!!

I walked away and stomped towards the bathroom. My poor heels.

*****

"Hey. Do I look ok?"

I wore a black crop-top matching with my black high waisted pants and floral coat, with cream high heels.

I stepped out and saw him holding a book. I moved forward and saw him with MY DAIRY!

I snatched it away from him and looked at what was he reading about. It's the day when I first had my appointment in Maldives.

"Who's the father?" I put it away before facing him.

"There are foods that are waiting for us. Let's go." I walked away clearly ignoring his question.

He grabbed my arm and pulled me closer to him. "You have to tell me everything." I should have been yelling at him but, instead I saw myself nodding.

"Let's go somewhere." He held my hand and caress it by his thumb. I tried to pull away but his stronger.

"Somewhere? Where? And do you mind letting me go?" I said trying away to pull away.

The others might think I'm a gold digger. Though, I don't care about what people think but still.

"No can do. Now that I have you and a thousand reason to have you, I won't let you go, now. Besides, your hand fits perfectly at my hand. Meant to be." He smiled. I mean, genuinely smiled. I looked away preventing him to see me blushing.

*****

A mansion came in view. It's looks familiar. But where did I see this house?

"Reminiscing our memories, I see." I looked at him confuse.

"This is the place where we had one night stand and the same place where you would answer my questions." He pulled over and help me to stepped out of the car.

We entered and I was in awe. "Alfred, coffee." Alfred nodded before leaving.

We walked upstairs and entered his study. He sat down and offered me as well.

"We'll just wait for Alfred. So that no one can disturb us." He said, getting some file and opened it. While reading the file his hold at the file tighten. Alfred came, knocking at the door before entering and serving us with our coffee.

"Why didn't you told me about our twins?"
