Hello! I recently got a hold of Kissed by the Baddest Bidder and wanted to write a fanfiction about it as well! I don't have a set guy I want to pair Lavinia (MC) with yet so I may open up a poll. -NO I AM NOT GIVING UP ON PIRATES IN LOVE- Im still producing more pages for it as well as writing this fanfiction up. Hopefully I don't get a writers block for this one either!

I used some of the actual stories' lines in this prologue, but I wrote it in my own way so not everything is similar to the app. I changed it up to match the personality of the MC. I hope you guys get to enjoy this story!

I yawned slightly before I opened up the main door to the female staff changing room, but seeing the face of my friend Sakiko knocked the sleepiness out of me.

"Good Morning, Sakiko!"

"Morning, Vinnie!"

I gave her a cheery smile and skipped up next to Sakiko and unlocked my locker, quickly changing into my uniform. "The V.I.P Convention starts today! I'm so pumped!"

I placed my hands on her shoulders in order to stop her jumping. Honestly, it was way too early for her to get this excited, but I can't help but smile at her enthusiasm. "I bet you'll be busy since you work on the casino floor. Since I'm in charge of the regular guest rooms, I doubt today will be any different for me." I packed my stuff and gently placed it in the locker before closing the floor and sighing slightly to myself. "I wish I could work at the I.V.C, too."

As we turned around to walk towards the exit Sakiko began talking about all the possible celebrities that were going to attend tonight's party. Personally, I always thought of celebrities as normal people, just recognized. Of course there were times when I would fawn over a musician or so, but they never excited me as much. As we walked towards the lobby, it was crowded with countless news reporters and groupies. I rolled my eyes at the women who were lined up at the entrance. How pitiful.. I never liked the idea of becoming vulnerable and subjective to a person, the thought disgust me. As I started observing the room Sakiko tugged on my arm lightly, "Oh my God, Vinnie! Look who just got out of that limo!"

Spinning my head around to catch the mysterious figure, I saw a tall man walking confidently towards the lobby, completely disregarding the press and the groupies surrounding him. "Isn't that Eisuke Ichinomiya? The OWNER of our hotel and CEO of the ichinomiya group?" I said with a straight face.

"What?! He's our boss?" Sakiko stared at me wide-eyed

I chuckled at her response and nodded slowly, smirking at her before giving a wink when suddenly a crowd of women started running in our direction. "H-hey! Watch where you're going!" My feet began to trip on each other as I tried to keep my balance, "Slow down!" I growled at the ladies, however to no avail, I fell backwards. I shut my eyes immediately to take the force of the crowd when I felt something different. Opening my eyes sheepishly, I turned around to be face to face with the one and only, Eisuke Ichinomiya. Angry, I immediately stood up and dusted my clothes, bowing my head slightly. "Apologies, Mr. Ichinomiya. Thank you for catching me. I wouldn't have fallen if it weren't for your fellow groupies." I said in disdain.

His lips pursed in irritation before he brushed off his jacket and looked down on me. "Get out of the way." He demanded as I caught his glare. Without faltering, I glared a little into his eyes without breaking eye contact until he completely turned away.

Just as Eisuke had reached the top of the staircase, I heard from behind me "What do you think you were doing to Eisuke!"

"How dare you dirty his clothes!" said another. Unamused, I turned around slowly with my eyes loaded with daggers and glared at the groupies. I walked slowly up to them, towering over slightly, "If for one second you thought that it was my fault I had fallen onto your dear Eisuke, you are horribly mistaken." I smirked as I saw the ladies take a step back before smiling innocently, "But it's fine. I have your groupies to thank for pushing me onto him."

Fear filled their eyes as they quickly walked around me and ran up to Eisuke, hoping to catch him by the elevator. I watched them carefully when I noticed Mr. Ichinomiya glance in my direction. I placed a hand on my hip and raised my brow, smirking towards him in intimidation when I Sakiko came running to me.

"Oh my Gosh, Vinnie are you alright?!"

I relaxed my arms and sighed, smiling. "Yes, I'm alright Sakiko."

"As much as I care about your wellbeing.. You do know it's part of the rules to be kind to the gusts, right?" Sakiko whispered.

I shrugged and motioned for us to continue walking to our respective locations in the hotel, "Those girls weren't guests. They were just here for Mr. Ichinomiya."

"How do you know that?"

I grinned before I held up a wallet in between my fingers and revealed the address inside, "One of them just happens to live very close."

"Vinnie! You can't just steal her wallet!" Sakiko exclaimed quietly

"Hey, I'll respect anyone as long as they respect me. Fuck with me and I fuck with you, that's just how it goes." I laughed to myself slightly.

Giving up, Sakiko sighed as her shoulder sagged a bit, "Of course.. This is why you don't have friends. You scare people."

Without looking at Sakiko I smirked, "Good."

Before we were able to exit the lobby, our attention was directed to a man and a woman quarreling at the front of the penthouse elevator. I crouched slightly to Sakiko and whispered "Someone isn't getting laid tonight."

She lightly slapped me on the shoulder as we slightly bend over laughing when the man approached us with a solemn face. Noticing his presence, I nudged Sakiko lightly as we fixed our composure and bowed to him. "You both just saw the whole thing, didn't you?"

Clearing my throat, "We did and we apologize about what had happened between you two."

He grabbed his chin lightly and stroked it, looking back and forth between Sakiko and I. "If you will excuse me, I must head to the Casino. I'll see you later, Vinnie!" Sakiko suddenly dashes out, waving as she walks quickly. I nod in response when I turned back to the man with a black fedora who was presumably dumped. Confused, I raised a brow when he grabbed my forearm and lead me to the elevator. "Uhm, Sir?" I asked.

Without letting go of my hand, we enter the elevator when he looked at me "Whew, I'm lucky I found another date. There's no way I could go to the party without a beautiful woman on my arm."

I pulled my arm roughly out of his grasp, "Party? You mean the I.V.C?"

"Isn't it obvious? Just look at me."

"I didn't mean it in that context, sir. It's just that I'm an employee at this hotel, Im not assigned to the I.V.C therefore I'm not authorized to lounge around there."

"So?" He took a step forward and gently held my chin in between three fingers and lifted it up slightly. Feeling too close for comfort, I took a step back when he took another step forward. "Yeah, you're just my type. This is destiny."

I raised an eyebrow before I gripped his forearm slightly and pulled his hands away from my chin. "I'm sorry, sir but we just me-." DING!

Unable to complete my sentence, he grinned as he pulled on my arm again, leading us to the I.V.C. "Let's go, princess!"

"Ugh, 'princess'? Hang on!"

Unable to protest, I followed him to the brightly lit room. I've never seen the I.V.C before.. Lost in thought, I didn't realise that the man I was with just a second ago disappeared. I'm not so surprised if he found another 'one of his types.' I chuckled.

"Hey, do you have any champagne?"

I turn around to be greeted by Mr. Ota Kisaki. Huh, he really does look like an angel. All around newspapers he's always known as the angelic artist and so on. I bowed to him before giving him a gentle smile, "Good Evening, Mr. Kisaki. We indeed have champagne. I'll be right back with a glass." I looked around the room when I noticed a fellow coworker, Kael. I grinned when I waved in his direction, "Kael!" I yelled. He looked around the room with furrowed brows when he notices me and quickly walks over with a tray of champagne. Before he was able to say anything to him, I gave him a discreet 'hush' sign and gave a small head gesture to Mr. Kisaki behind me. Nodding in agreement, he handed me a glass as I reached for one. "Here you are, Mr. Kisaki."

Giving me his signature angelic smile, he took the glass. "Thank you."

As he walked away I turned back to Kael and gave him sigh of relief. "Hey, Kael."

"Vinnie, what are you doing in the I.V.C? I thought you were assigned to the regular hotel rooms?"

"I am, but.. lets just say I didn't come here on my own."

We exchanged a few words before he had to get back to work and I had to get back down to the lobby before a fairly old businessman took my hand. My face contorts slightly, ugh, he smells! Pulling my hand back from his grasp, he quickly takes it again and smirks, "I love girls like you. Feisty. You wanna come with me to give me some special room service? I'll make sure to tip you for the extra work." His greasy face is flushed as he looks me up and down.

Disgusted, I completely retracted my arm as I took a step back and shook my head, standing straight. "My apologies sir, but we do not offer that kind of service here."

"You're pretty lucky you met me. My net worth is $500 million." He slips his arms around my waist when I pushed him away with my hands.

"With all due respect sir," I tried to keep my smiles when I glared at him, "I couldn't care less if you had $500 billion, so please let me go."

The man was visibly getting irritated, pulling me by the waist when a powerful voice came from behind us.

"This party just got really trashy."

Taking this opportunity, I completely shoved the sleazy man off of me and took several steps away. I turned around to find the owner of the voice when I saw Mr. Ichinomiya. "You again." he scowls.

I smiled as innocently as I could and bowed, "Indeed it is me. Thank you, again."

He growled slightly when he knitted his eyebrows, "You're in my way. Move."

I took a step to the right and bowed once more, "Of course."

The sleazy old man who was full of himself suddenly shrunk down to a bunny with no pride and in turn, ran away. Unable to stand any more of the man, I turn to see Mr. Ichinomiya walk away, still surrounded by the groupies when a white glove fell onto the floor. Is this Mr. Ichinomiya's? I walked over and carefully picked it up when I noticed he turned a corner. Hurrying up after him, I began walking quickly when I came across a long, deserted hallway that stretched out behind the door Mr. Ichinomiya entered. Unsure, I started looking down the hall when I noticed one door slightly open. Maybe?.. I walked up to the door when I saw several briefcases lying on a table at the centre of the room, filled with guns and large sums of money which were surrounded by men in black discussing something important. Or so I thought.

Suddenly I felt a rough hand grab my arm when I was pulled forward and had my arms held behind me. I gasp as fear and surprise take a hold of me.

"What are you doing here?" Said a tall man behind me.

Feeling a little bit irritated, before he was able to pin me up against the wall I immediately lifted my feet and kicked off the wall, falling backwards onto the man and jumped to my feet, running to the other side of the hall to create some distance. "I could ask you the same thing."

Scowling, he immediately got up to his feet and reached in his pocket to pull out his Desert Eagle .50 caliber, pointing it in my direction. "You have 5 seconds to run and forget everything you saw or you'll be wiped off the face of the Earth."

"I'll run, yes. Forget everything?... In your dreams." I said as I quickly darted away from him, turning the corner before he was able to shoot me.

Running far enough, I reached the storage room and closed the door behind me. I sat down briefly to catch my breath when I started contemplating what my choices were. Should I tell the manager?.. Keep it to myself?- ugh!

Outside the storage room I heard the rumbling of footsteps running down the halls. "Find her!" I heard the man yell.

Waiting for the steps to die down, I quickly ran out of the room when I bumped into 2 men and fell backwards, flat on my ass. "Damnit!"

As I fell, I heard a glass shatter from the crate the two men carried. Surprised, I stood up quickly and walked over to them, "I'm terribly sorry! I didn't mean t-"

"Shit! The statue of Venus is broken! It's no thanks to you!" He suddenly turned to face me.

"What?!" Exclaiming as I lifted the cover to see the statue truly shattered. "I'm so so-" Before I began to apologise I remembered hearing on the news how the statue was stolen. Thinking hard for a moment, I had realised these two men stole the statue.

"Hey, this was a very important piece that was going to be auctioned off!" Said his partner.

"..You were going to auction off the statue of Venus that was stolen about a week ago?"

Angrily, they both suddenly jumped me when I was able to dodge one of the two, however failed with his accomplice who immediately pushed me onto the floor and handcuffed my wrists. Unable to push him off, I felt the contact of a baseball bat that was aimed directly at my head and blacked out.

...

I slowly opened my eyes when I was immediately greeted by a harsh, bright light, using my hands to shield my eyes from it. When I brought my hands up, I was in cuffs and suddenly remembered what had happened in the basement. Shit! Afraid, I immediately sat up. Amidst the enthusiastic chatter of the crowd a bright spotlight shines down upon me. I'm locked inside a gigantic birdcage that's set right in the centre of the stage. The masked audience stares at me.

"And now for the last item for bid, out grand finale!" I looked to the side to see a man dressed up as if he was a cross breed of the madd hatter and the white rabbit. "A young, healthy Japanese woman! Keep her as your slave, keep has as a toy! Do whatever you please with her… It's truly up to you!"

Angry at his words, I scowled and grabbed the bars, shaking the cage and punching it over and over again. "I am NOT a 'thing'!" I yelled from the cage.

"Oh my! It seems she has awaken and has gotten her blood boiling." He smirked devilishly. Ignoring me, he turned back to the crowd. "And now we'll start the bidding! I have $500,000 from #5! $1 million from #30! $1.2 million from #24!"

I stood up from the cage slowly and grasped the handle. One by one the masked bidders hold up their cards in the circular arena I can't believe it, but I've been put up for auction. "Oh! #5 for $2 million!" I looked down at my knuckles to see bruises beginning to form when I immediately redirected my attention to the crowd, searching for whoever #5 was when I found him staring at me with the most sinister face a man could muster. Feeling the build, I began to shake the cage. Pounding it with my fist and using my body weight to break the bars, "I will not be sold!"

It began to bend an opening when the man kicked the cage slightly, "Be quiet!" he yelled.

"No!" I yelled as I extended my arm past the cage to grab him by the collar, but missed by a little.

"Going once!.. $2 million going twice!" Anyone but him! Please! Frightened, my eyes grew wide as I started to search the room. "If there are no other bids, it will be sold to the man in seat number 5!" Fuck.. please, no..

Just when I was about to give up, the man suddenly announced "Seat number 100 with a bid of $20 million! Are there any more bids?" He paused and glanced at the crowd when he raised his arms enthusiastically, "Sold to the man in seat #100 for $20 million!"

4 men walked up to my from the side stage and carried the cage as I continued to pound the cage in anger. Gripping the bars and resting my head on it, from the corner of my eye I see two men with their arms crossed. "Come with us."

Angrily, I crossed my arms and nodded, gesturing to the cage.

…

When I got out of the cage I followed the two men to what appears to be the penthouse of the hotel. As I stepped into the room I noticed 2 men sitting on the couch who were joined by the two men who had accompanied me.

"We brought her." The two men sit on the sofa with their legs crossed

"You.."

"We bought you." Mr. Ichinomiya speaks, followed by the man I had fought with a while ago/

"So we ended up catching you after all."

"You know this woman, Soryu?"

"You could say that."

"We had a little run in." I butt in their conversation. Soryu's stare sharpens at me when it hit me. "So, back then in the basement you..?"

"He means we won you at the auction for $20 mil." Said one of the escorts.

"The boss must've gotten dragged into it, too."

The men who brought me here take off their masks, revealing themselves. I scoffed as I placed a hand on my hip, "Mr. Kisaki and Baba."

"Oh? You're not surprised?" asked Soryu.

"Not necessarily. The masks cover very little of the face so you can tell who they were with or without them."

"Good eye, kid." I hear coming from the back. I turn around to see an older man, puffing away by the window.

I grinned and replied, "Thanks, dad."

Everyone's eyes grew wide as I heard some gasps before I chuckled slightly, "I was joking."

"Not funny, kid.. Not funny." He repeated as he walked towards us.

"You're taking this awfully easy." Said Eisuke

"Just on the outside. On the inside I wish nothing more than to beat you all up and dash out of here."

I heard the click of a gun, carried by Soryu which was aimed right at me, "You want to say that again?"

I held my arms out to the side and smirked, looking him dead in the eye. "Shoot me."
