Xlynor's POV

Eryndor turned at the sound of my laughter, his face twisted.

“You sent her to the woods because you thought I was going to get her back when I heard it? Silly you. You think I care about her? I'm only here because of the audacity you had to enter the slave camp and take her. But then, I'm fine so long as she's not with you.” I chuckled darkly and began leaving.

Eryndor’s smile faltered and his shoulders dropped. “She's leaving the pack, your five-hundred million dollar slave. You'r

  • Auctioned Bride Of The Cursed Alpha    Chapter 123: Damn Her

    Xlynor's POVThe Delta stepped forward, clearing his throat. “Alpha, the trainers are ready for the evaluation. We’ve also prepared detailed profiles for each recruit as you requested, and we included their physical assessments, combat trials, and loyalty metrics.”I nodded once and moved toward the seats overlooking the arena. I needed to sit down before I did something regrettable. But of course, Isagi couldn’t let the moment pass without being a nuisance.Ivara started toward an empty chair, but Isagi smoothly pulled out the one right beside his own, flashing her that infuriating grin. “Here, Ivy. A much better view.” He gestured towards it with an open hand.At this point, he was yanking on the very last thread of my sanity. His presence alone grated on me. Add the blatant passes at Ivara, and I was one breath away from violence.Ivara looked at it, then at him before giving a polite nod and moving toward his offered seat. She was actually walking towards it!I hissed under my bre

  • Auctioned Bride Of The Cursed Alpha    Chapter 122: You Want To Die?

    Xlynor's POVI scowled. “What are you doing here?”“Easy tiger. I'm extending my stay, much longer than I'd originally planned.” He grinned and finally dropped his feet off the desk, sitting up before rising to his feet. He pocketed the phone, and then his attention moved past me, glinting as though he'd just found the most interesting thing in the room.I glanced behind me only to see that his eyes and attention were locked on Ivara.“I guess my days of exploration are over.” His eyes glittered with excitement as they raked over Ivara.His whole energy had shifted the moment he saw her. He hadn't looked at me once since getting to his feet. I finally realized he hadn't been lying when he said she affected him too. I could literally feel the current of excitement in him, and it didn't sit well with me.Irritation flared hot in my chest. I stepped in front of her, blocking his view. “Get out. We’re about to start.”His eyes dimmed immediately. He sidestepped me smoothly and pushed past

  • Auctioned Bride Of The Cursed Alpha    Chapter 121: Late

    Xlynor's POVToday was the day the priestess would arrive.That fact bothered me more than everything else— the barracks visit, the recruit evaluation, the warriors' training, and every other damned thing I had to do.She had agreed to come right after the Lunari festival but then a part of me didn't want her to come anymore… perhaps I was uncertain and wasn't ready yet to hear whatever she had to say. Or maybe I had a certain fear of what she would confirm. But at the same time, it was already too late to back out.Anyway, I couldn’t risk leaving Ivara at the castle unsupervised. She was too nosy, too observant, and overall too curious.One glimpse of a strange woman in the castle would have her digging for answers she was never meant to uncover. She still didn’t know she was likely more than human, and I wasn’t ready to explain how she affected me and my demons in ways that defied logic or tell her outright that she was anything but human.Nope. I’d even lied to Zane, claiming I need

  • Auctioned Bride Of The Cursed Alpha    Chapter 120: Warriors’ Barracks

    Ivara's POVI followed Xlynor out of the castle without a word. He didn't spare me a single glance, his posture rigid and commanding as ever.The moment we stepped outside, the guards stationed around the compound bowed deeply in unison. A clean, synchronized dip that rippled outward as he moved through them.“Alpha,” they greeted.Xlynor acknowledged it with a curt nod, already heading for the parking garage. A few of them fell into step behind us. None of them said a word.I trailed a little behind, my mind still spinning. Where exactly were we going? What was this about?A guard opened the car door on my side, and I got in while Xlynor went around to the other side and slid in beside me.I opened my mouth to ask where we were going, but one glance at him, combined with the unnerving silence between us made the words stick in my throat.Was he still angry? Or was this just his usual icy attitude? I decided to look out the window instead.Through the glass, I watched two more cars fi

  • Auctioned Bride Of The Cursed Alpha    Chapter 119: You're Not Prey

    Ivara's POV“What was that out there?”It hadn’t even been up to fifteen minutes. I was still leaning against the door, knees drawn to my chest, trying to calm my racing heart when Xlynor's voice sliced through the silence.I screamed, scrambling sideways on all fours before whipping my head up. Xlynor stood just inside the room, hands clasped behind his back, staring down at me with that unreadable expression.“What the fuck?” I hissed, holding my chest which was thumping hard.I hadn't heard him come in or even teleport in. He was definitely going to give me a heart attack one of these days if this continued.“What was the meaning of that, Ivara?” he repeated, which brought my mind back to the issue at hand.I began panicking so hard I could barely form words. “I… I didn’t— I know… I’m sorry, I know I should’ve left… I… I…”“Not that part,” he cut me off, voice flat. “I meant the part where you were acting all prim and proper.”I blinked, stunned. “Huh? Prim and proper?”“What was t

  • Auctioned Bride Of The Cursed Alpha    Chapter 118: Brutality 

    Ivara's POVAs soon as the words left Xlynor’s mouth, Eira’s eyes widened in pure disbelief. “Ma… mark?” she stammered, her voice losing all its shape. “A mark? What are you— what type of mark? What exactly are you saying? Tell me I misunderstood that.”I was just as stunned, my mind reeling as I tried to work out what he meant.His ‘mark’? What did that even mean? Was he talking about some kind of claim, a brand, or… something more that he'd put on my skin? Oh, he wouldn't.The thought sent a fresh wave of unease crawling down my spine, but I didn’t dare ask.Xlynor offered no explanation to Eira, simply standing there with that cold, unreadable expression, letting the silence stretch and thicken until it felt suffocating.Eira and I shared the same expression. Bewildered confusion. I had never expected both of us to ever have something in common.Eira recovered first and pulled herself back together with visible effort.“This is about Zoya, right?” Her voice had sharpened with accus

    Xlynor's POVIvara gasped, hands flying up. “Did I poke it that hard?! I barely touched it. How did you get hurt that badly? Why isn’t your healing working? What’s wrong with it?”I contorted my face further. “Seriously, Ivara? I’m in pain and your primary concern is why it isn’t healing? Do you ev

  • Auctioned Bride Of The Cursed Alpha    Chapter 112: What Is That?

    Xlynor's POVI didn't move when I got back.I killed the engine and just sat there in the dark driveway, my hands on the wheel and the engine off, staring at nothing in particular while the castle loomed in front of me.Ivara was probably asleep by now and Zane had left too after attending to her.

  • Auctioned Bride Of The Cursed Alpha    Chapter 111: Game Master

    Xlynor's POVI looked down at the shallow cut across my chest which already had blood seeping out of it and had slowly soaked my shirt, then up at her.It wasn't the cut that angered me but the insult that came with it. Elodie's twin took a fighting stance, causing my brows to knot. Did she expect

  • Auctioned Bride Of The Cursed Alpha     Chapter 110: Don't Give Me That 

    Xlynor's POVElodie scoffed the moment the words left my mouth. “The elders predicted this. Power, profit, possession. That's all you care about. Nothing less, nothing more.”I rolled my eyes. “As expected of an Alpha.” I examined my nails briefly. “I'd hate to disappoint.”I watched her face for t
