The Roxena Prison of Love
Chapter 27 Auction

The atmosphere in the harbor is very crowded. Luxurious vehicles and busy people passing by. They went back and forth into a big cruise ship.

The tall and long yacht rests once every 3 years and will rest for 3 days only. The casino and its auctions are the most famous of these cruise ships. Many wealthy people as well as nobles come to bet fate or just take a look around.

On this yacht, for 3 days, their luck was at stake. The rich get richer, or vice versa. By the rules every one who comes must wear a pseudonym and also a half-face mask to hide the face.

"Look! Isn't that Alpha and Eta?"

The boisterous atmosphere slowly quieted when 2 people came. A woman of high height, wearing a black mask and another woman wearing a white mask. Both of them carry a mysterious impression.

"There will definitely be an unlucky person at the auction tonight" whispered a man wearing a fox-patterned mask.

"Who is the target this time? At the auction last time, there were unlucky royal members. Will it be the same this time?"

"Oh, from the wind I heard it was Edwardo. And he died of an illness. However, the foolish and arrogant were still around. Just look who's unlucky today."

"Oh yes, do you know that tonight there are interesting items, many of which are after it. However, I'm sure it will belong to Alpha."

"Hahaha, let's just enjoy the show tonight. Come-let's."

They followed the steps of the two women. Entering a door and a hallway that is long enough to finally arrive in a large room, like a performance theater with a circular bench and a stage in the middle.

Each bench is equipped with a number and a signboard that will be used for auction participation later.

The two women, known as Alpha and Eta, took place on the 50 and 51 bench. And the chairs around them, nothing fills. It becomes common every year.

"Erin, no matter how much it costs, must get it!"whisper Alpha on Eta.

"Good, Miss." Eta aka Erin smiled with ambition. They want something until they warn them all the time. Gotta get!

After about 10 minutes, the room was full. And the auction begins. The host gave a very good reception. Introduce yourself and the auction begins.

The first item, the second item, until the fifth item, Alpha aka Roxena, did not participate at all. Not a goal item and not interested in playing with participating auction participants.

"Gentlemen welcome the next thing."

"This is a limited edition dress. The only thing in the world. Made by the hands of legendary designer, Sierra. Made with high quality fabrics and dyes. This beautiful blue color, produced from lazuli. Equipped with pearls and diamonds, this dress is named "Samudra and Angkasa Dancing"!"

The applause was so lively watching the dress with the name "Samudra and Angkasa Dancing. A deep blue color that contrasts with black and white patches. Making it has two meanings in accordance with its name, namely the deep Ocean and the very high Space.

"Initial price of 1 million dollars. The price for the increase is 100 thousand dollars!"

"It's very expensive!!"exclaim those who are interested in the limited dress but do not have enough money. After all they had to compete with these same rich young Masters and Misses who were busy raising prices for the dresses.

Erin glanced at Roxena. The woman next to him seemed uninterested.

"That dress fits you perfectly. Do you not want it at all?"erin asked whispering. Roxena, her heart deep as the ocean, could not be explored and understood her desires. Then, the status was also high like space, only a handful of people were able to reach it.

"Fixed with the Blue Ocean, it must be very compatible, Miss." Erin persuades. It is now 1.8 million dollars.

"Erin, even Gerald's savings a year isn't enough to buy it. I don't have the money to buy that" Roxane replied lazily.

Erin coughed softly. Don't have money he said?

"Let's just say you want clothes bought with your husband's money" Erin said.

Roxena smiled. Then raise the number board.

"Number 50, 1.9 million dollars!"

"Suddenly I want to play."

Erin just shook her head weakly.

"Number 39, 2 million dollars! Anything else?"

"Number 50, 2.1 million dollars!"

"Number 39, 2.2 million dollars!"

Prices are rising. Roxane repeatedly raised her number board. The price is going up and the competition is getting hotter.

"Number 39, 4 million dollars!"

"It seems you have a special woman.4 million dollars, it's yours." Roxena smiled broadly. Another with the man's reddened face and hammer knock as much as 3 times inaugurated that the dress was hers.

"Damn! 4 Million dollars for a dress?! But, I think it's worth it."

And so. Roxena continues to play, making the price even higher until finally releasing it. And come for the fifteenth. It was a hairpin. With the Jade Vine floral motif, the hairpin looked elegant. Opened at 100 dollars but no one bids. The host sighed, not expecting much.

For them it's not interesting. An old-fashioned hairpin? Not suitable for use in modern times. Behind the times.

"100 grand!"

"What?"

"100 grand for that hairpin? Is that woman crazy?! It's not worth it!"

"I think he's mostly money. The hairpin he didn't glimps it he bought expensive."

The auctioneer coughed slowly to neutralize his shock. He then announces the price and the hairpin falls to Roxane.

Erin asked with a look. "That's my stuff, Erin," Roxena said with a sad look.

If it is related to the past that I do not understand, Miss's gaze is always sad, Erin's mind.

Auction continued. And Roxane is back playing and there's only one who gets eaten up with it. Tonight, there are a lot of victims from Roxane. Finally the item that became the prima donna tonight came out. A jewelry in the form of a necklace with a gemstone, on a blue surface and the deeper the darker the color until it approaches black. Blue ocean, it also reflects the depths of the ocean. Everyone was fascinated by the necklace.

Roxane's gaze was now full of ambition. He must get the necklace!

"This is a very precious necklace. Found in a ship that sank on the bottom of the sea. A jewel that continues to shine despite being thousands of years old. The necklace is thought to be from the days of the previous kingdom, "Blue Ocean". The starting price is 5 million dollars! For the increase is 200 thousand dollars!"

"5.5 million dollars!" Bench number 39, who was competing with Roxane was the first to bid.

"10 million dollars!" Roxane instantly raised the price nearly 2-fold.

"11 million!"

"12 million!"

"Damn! 13 million!"

As a result, only the two people bet. Others watch. Although the necklace was very charming, their budget was not enough. Moreover, competing with prices that are now more than 15 million dollars.

"17 million!"

"Well, you really want this necklace, huh? That woman must be amazing. However, this necklace will be mine. 25 million dollars!" Roxane instantly increased the amount of price he offered.

"Miss? Just be like that. Don't fight with me! 25.5 Million dollars."

"You're very rich, huh?" Roxane smiled. "30 million dollars. How's it?"

I don't have any more money to bid. "Damn!"

"Begin with you!" Pointing the index finger at Roxane. Roxane responded with an increasingly wide smile.30 million dollars, the necklace was hers.

"Congratulations to the number 50 has obtained the main item at the auction tonight. All auction items have been exhausted. Please come back to pay and receive your goods. The auction event is closed. See you at the next auction. Good night."

Roxena and Erin, also the ones who obtained the auction items tonight immediately headed for the place to pay and take their goods. The man number 39 was staring at Roxane cynically all the way. He's very unhappy. Blue Ocean was his goal but he lost.

I have to get it, at any rate!
