Betrothed To The Mafia Lord novel Chapter 32

Luca’s POV

“Thirty thousand dollars for the ocean drop necklace.” Jake announced into the mic with the said necklace raised high in the air by his index finger. “Going to the Darta mafia… going…”

“Thirty one thousand dollars!” An average height man called out immediately he got to his feet and the leader of the said Darta mafia scowled at him before adding an extra thousand dollars to it, topping the average height man’s bargaining price.

It ended up getting sold to the Darta mafia and he sat back down with so much pride oozing off his body, I didn’t miss the way he threw a scowl at the man that had attempted to get the necklace at a higher price.

It went on and on and with time, I started to imagine Sofia in all the displayed diamond accessories and how it would look like on her. It was hard to concentrate and pay attention to whatever the Jake dude was saying because an image of Sofia wearing one of the ocean drop necklaces that just got sold out was messing with my head.

The image was of her in her silk, sexy underwear with this necklace dropping all the way to rest on those small and firm boobs of hers that I wanted to fondle and thumb despite how much I’ve been trying to convince myself to not want that… because it was Sofia, and I shouldn’t be thinking about her that way.

“And now, we’re going to be moving to the second level now that we’re done with the third level.” Harley announced into the mic before throwing her hand in air and waving it around. “Who’s excited??”

The crowd cheered loudly and the music got turned on at the same time, making the get even louder. I glanced at James just as he was starting to turn his head towards my direction.

“We’ve still got time on us, right?” I asked him as I quickly glanced at my wrist watch on my left wrist and he whipped out his phone and quickly started scrolling through it.

“Yes, we do. I shifted our second appointment for today a hour forward than scheduled at first, because I knew this was going to take so much time.” James explained without glancing up from his phone which he was scrolling through, he leaned towards me and shoved his phone in my face. I blinked and squinted at it as I tried to read what he was showing me.

“They want to see us?! You managed to get an appointment with them?” I paused and glanced at James who had a wide, knowing grin on his face.

“The fuck man? How did you do it? This is so insane?” I continued, leaning into him to stare at the phone from over his shoulder to see him replying to the email he showed me moments ago.

“I have my ways.” He said and I groaned lowly and try to stop the smile from spreading out on my face, can James get any more amazing?

I’ve been trying to schedule an appointment with the owner of one of the biggest shares companies in America, to no avail… but once James got involved, it happened in a week.

Now, wasn’t that insane?

A loud noise erupted in the crowd, resulting in James glancing away from his phone, to the front of the crowd where it seemed was the cause of the noise.

The Jake dude had taken his shirt off and had worn one of the diamonds they were auctioning, making the crowd go wild.

“Now, this piece of cake, worn by this piece of candy, is going for a hundred thousand dollars. Let’s see those hands if you’re interested.”

A lot of hands went up almost immediately and I narrowed my eyes at the crowd, and there I was, moments ago, thinking that the majority of crowds didn’t come with enough money.

A man spoke up first and everyone turned around to stare at him. “I’ll have him for one hundred and fifty thousand dollars.” The man said and the crowd erupted in screams, while Jake doubled over in laughter on the stage.

“That was really smooth, man.” Jake hooted into the mic and everyone went crazy, squealing again again.

“Thank you. My throat is way smoother than that, by the way.” The man replied calmly and Jake stared at him this time without laughing, he was biting on his lips and toying with the necklace on his neck while still staring at the man who was boldly hitting on the Jake dude without any care for what anybody was going to think.

And the crowd was such a vibe, eager for more sexual innuendos from the man.

“You can have me then, I mean, you can have the necklace.” Jake started to say, shamelessly flirting back and the crowd went crazy immediately, banging on their tables and hooting loudly.

“Man, these people don’t even give a damn about what people who aren’t a fan of the lgbtq community would think of this.” James leaned into me and murmured quietly, and I couldn’t agree more.

“I know, right? It’s a good thing the majority of the crowd are enthusiasts for that kind of thing. It’s also a good thing that they don’t need to live in complete silence anymore, now that the world and its beliefs are getting more advanced and their knowledge, getting more broadened.

“Anyone else wants to bargain for the necklace?” Hayley asked and waited a few beats before lowering her mic and Jake took over immediately. “Alright then, Mr sexy with a smooth tongue and throat gets the… necklace.” Jake said and the crowd went loud, taking all at once and disagreeing all at once.

“Alright, alright!” Jake called out loudly with a dramatic sigh before starting to speak into his mic, while thumbing the necklace on his neck once again and looking everywhere but in the still standing man’s direction.
