Chereads / Devil's mate / Chapter 12 - Up for sale

Chapter 12 - Up for sale

After dressing up, Janina didn't waste any moment in getting up, she had to go back to her aunty today.

Picking her bag, she looked at herself in the mirror, thou she had several injuries on her body due to the accident last night but she was used to seeing this marks on her skin.

Anytime her aunt got angry with her cousin, Nava, she always ended up getting the beating instead. Sighing, she walked towards the door.

Opening the door, his beautiful face came to her view. He stood directly opposite her door, with a smirk on his face.

He had his back resting on the wall. He exuded a powerful aura that commanded respect.

"Where to??" he asked shortly.

"My aunt's house." she replied briefly too.

"Let me drop you off." he offered.

" I can get there myself, don't stress yourself." Janina replied.

She felt too comfortable with him that made her distance herself. She didn't like the way she felt whenever she was next to him, her emotions were so open to him.

"When you are done, meet me outside." he said not taking her predicament into consideration.

The loud sound of his car horn was heard from inside causing the occupiers of the house to come outside.

Coming down from the car, she walked towards the house. Her aunt was the first person to come out.

"Janina!!!!!!!!!!" Aunt Maya screamed immediately.

"Nina!!!!" Nava screamed too.

Walking towards them Janina had a small smile on her face.

She could see her aunt walking towards her in a fast pace with a seeing her aunt so close to her but then she didn't receive any hit causing her to open them.

Turning around, she saw that her aunt had gone to meet him.

"Mr Black, you brought her yourself??" She asked curiously while giving Janina a dirty look.

"Mmm, she is still up for sale right??" Mr. Black asked.

Turning around, Janina looked at him, at least she knew his name now. That name rang a bell in her ears but she couldn't remember where she heard it before.

But what was more important to her now was the fact that her aunty was going to sell her to someone she didn't know.

"Yes yes yes, of course, she is." Aunt Maya said with a bright smile, that got Janina squinting her eyes.

( author: just kidding 😁)

Janina pov

'I was for sale, i, Janina.' this ran through my mind for a few minutes until I felt a hand holding mine.

Subconsciously, I looked down at the hand, fear rushed through me. I could recognize that hand, it had almost mutilated all the parts of my body.

With her hand entwined in mine, she dragged me forward.

"I see you dropped her off yourself, sir." Aunt Maya said sounding so polite and innocent.

I have never heard her speak that way before.

"Mm, I see you have hard time keeping her at Bay." Mr. Black said, his hoarse voice sounded so smooth in my ears.

"Yes( smiles widely) yes, that is why I want to sell her off to someone more capable." Aunt Maya praised.

"Carvey"

Immediately he said that name, a black raven flew towards him, landing enormously on his shoulder.

A man appeared by his side, Janina recognized him as the butler. He held a blue document on his hand.

"You just need to sign this??" Mr Black said.

"Aunty!!!!!! What's going on??" Janina ran towards her aunt with a questioning gaze.

"A sale as you can see." Maya replied surreptitiously.

"Uhn... what exactly is being sold??" Janina questioned.

"Janina, would you quit disturbing, I'll reply you later.... okay??" Maya said sounding irritated.

"I think you should reply her."
