Reborn- His Scarlett Moon

Chapter 31-Auction…



“I don’t care about being discreet. Whoever did this has decided to step on the wolf’s tail. I don’t even care about the money I lost, I just want to make them pay.”

It was a new challenge for Ryan.

He was used to being the undisputed Lord of the underworld in his terrain. His foster father was out of the country minding some of his own business while Ryan ruled over his self proclaimed empire.

Everybody shook with the mere mention of Ryan’s name let alone dare to cross paths or stand against him.

Yet somebody did just that.

They tipped the marine officers about a cargo that Ryan was smuggling into the country.

His ship was stopped at the previous dock.

An insult to Ryan’s reputation itself.

“I understand how you feel. I can hardly keep my own nerves calm.

But nobody knows about the tip off yet. They think the ship is stuck at regular custom check up. We don’t want anybody else to know we got any competition.

My boys are already on it. They will soon find out the bastard who is so impatient to meet his painful end. ”

“Fine!

And when you do, I want to know everything about them. I want to know where they live, where they work, and who they associate with.

I want to make him fear living. I want to skin his family in front of him till he begs for me to kill him. But his death will surely not be so easy.

It will be a slow burn.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Like foreplay. It will build on and on… ”

Ryan sort of had a smirk on as he described his revenge.

Beck was smiling as well.

Live torture was something they both enjoyed.

Just then Sherry entered the room with a pile of books and files in her hands.

Both the boys stopped and turned their gaze at her.

” Where do you want me to put these? ”

Sherry asked, struggling to keep her balance.

” Take them back! ”

Ryan ordered.

” Huh? ”

Sherry was more annoyed than shocked.

” But you just asked me to bring them… ”

” Yes, that was what I ordered and you have fulfilled your task.

Now, take them back! ”

He slowly repeated his last sentence.

Sherry pulled her lips back and let out an angry grunt before trotting back with her load.

Beck was silent for a while, his eyes looking at the floor.

” Umm, Alpha, I don’t mean to be rude but I had a question bugging me. Can I get it out! ”

He looked up at Ryan and asked.

” Of course you can. ” Ryan knew Beck had stopped calling him Alpha ever since he had asked him to. But him addressing him by that title surely meant he wanted to ask something related to their past.

” What do you intend to do with that girl? ”

He asked, looking Ryan straight in his eyes.

Ryan was silent for a while.

” I have plans, Beck. I have plans.

I want her to feel every bit of the pain and humiliation that her lookalike made us feel. ”

His arms were wrapped around his head as he said that and he twirled around in his chair.

Beck however sort of seemed a little relieved at his statement.

” I will be going then. ”

He left as Josh entered with a dozen other men.

Ryan immediately stood up.

” Ahhh, the auction. I had almost forgotten about that.

Let’s go. ”

” Stop the car! ”

Ryan yelled as his fleet of cars passed a confectionery store on the way.

His men watched with curious eyes as he hopped out and came back with a bag full of something. But nobody dared to ask any question.

They continued the rest of the journey like that.

There surely was something cooking in Ryan’s head.

Ryan arrived with his men at the elite auction scene just as the bidding was reaching its climax. The room was filled with rich and powerful people, all vying for the rare ornament that once belonged to the werewolves. The tension was palpable, and Ryan could feel the intensity in the air.

As he made his way through the crowd, heads turned to see who this newcomer was. Ryan was deliberately dressed in his casual clothes, a stark contrast to the formal attire of the other bidders. He grinned as he saw the looks of surprise and confusion on their faces.

“Excuse me, pardon me, coming through,” Ryan said as he elbowed his way past the people blocking his path. He finally reached the front of the room, where the auctioneer was frantically trying to keep up with the rapid-fire bids.

They were auctioning a very old bracelet.

The MoonStone bracelet, that was what it was called.

It was a rare and mysterious ornament that once belonged to the werewolves. It was said to have been crafted by a powerful werewolf shaman a few centuries ago and had been passed down through the generations of werewolf leaders. but not all were able to bear or harness its power.

“I’ll take it,” Ryan announced, surprising everyone in the room.

The other bidders scoffed, dismissing Ryan as a joke. But Ryan wasn’t done yet. He pulled out a bag of candy from his pocket and began to toss them around the room.

“Now, hold on a minute, everyone. Before we go any further, let’s enjoy some candy,” Ryan said with a mischievous grin.

The room fell silent as Ryan threw the candy into the air. The bidders hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to do. But then, one by one, they started to reach for the candy.

As they did, Ryan slyly made his move. He grabbed the artifact and held it up for all to see.

“I believe this belongs to me now,” Ryan said with a chuckle.

The other bidders were stunned. They had never seen anything like it before. Ryan had managed to outsmart them all with his unusual offer.

Bidding for what once belonged to his kind with his own money like the commoners was out of question.

He claimed what was his and he would throw their money on their face.

As Ryan made his way out of the auction room, the other bidders watched in disbelief. They had been outwitted by a man with a bag of candy. It was a shock they could hardly get over.
