Being sold To The Highest Bidder Chapter 44: Lost in Shadows
Elara's voice echoed hauntingly through the void, her panic evident. "Darius? Answer me, please!"Liora stumbled blindly, trying to reach out and find anyone. "This isn't just a trick of the temple; it's a test. We need to stay calm."Rhys, swallowing his fear, said, "But one of us is missing! We have to find him."As they tried to converse, the same ethereal voice from before whispered again, "To find what is lost, one must confront the truths they avoid."Elara, tears forming, spoke hesitantly, "Darius and I... before this journey, we... we had a falling out. I never forgave him for leaving when our village was attacked."Liora softly replied, "Elara, this place forces us to face unresolved feelings and fears. But admitting that is the first step."Suddenly, a dim light appeared in the distance, glowing softly. Rhys pointed towards it, "There! Maybe that's a way out or a clue to find Darius!"The trio began moving cautiously towards the light. As they got closer, they realized the g

The vast void beneath them churned menacingly as the shadowy hand, its fingers elongated like sinister tendrils, continued to climb higher, inching towards the floating platform. The very essence of the darkness seemed to drain the warmth around them, sending shivers down their spines.Elara, her eyes widened in horror, cried out, "What is that?!"The Celestial Being's gaze remained fixed on the approaching danger. "That," it said with a heavy voice, "is the Voidwalker, an ancient entity that feeds on the life force of the cosmos."Liora, clutching her navigation device, quickly asked, "Is there any way to repel it or send it back?"The Celestial Being paused for a moment, then responded, "There is one way. The mirror in Orion's possession holds the power to repel the Voidwalker. But the process is not simple, and it requires a unity of purpose and intent among you."Orion, tightly holding the mirror, nodded determinedly. "Tell us what to do.""You must recite the Celestial Oath, a ch
Being sold To The Highest Bidder Chapter 46: The Guardian's Riddle
The guardian's form was ever-changing, a blend of darkness and light, morphing continuously between human and ethereal. Its presence was overwhelming, a force of nature that seemed to fill every crevice of the chamber.Orion, eyes wide, took a step back, pulling Liora with him. "Who are you?" he demanded, voice quivering."I am the sentinel of time," the guardian replied, its voice echoing through the chamber. "I have been awakened by your intrusion. Why have you come?"Liora, gathering her courage, stepped forward, leaving Orion's protective grasp. "We seek knowledge, a way to mend what's broken in our world."The guardian studied Liora for a moment before responding, "Knowledge comes at a price. Are you prepared to pay it?"Orion intervened, "What price? What do you want from us?"The guardian's eyes flashed. "To proceed, you must answer a riddle. Answer correctly, and you shall gain the knowledge you seek. Fail, and you shall remain trapped in this chamber for all of eternity."Lio
Being sold To The Highest Bidder Chapter 47: Shadows and Whispers
The black mist coiled and undulated, gradually enveloping the ruins like a serpent constricting its prey. The once silent night was now filled with murmurs and whispers, voices from a time long forgotten. The ruins, bathed in the chilling glow of the mist, took on an eerie life of their own.Liora, her heart pounding loudly in her ears, clutched the stone tablet tighter. "Orion, we need to find out what this means. This isn't just some guardian's trick. This is a warning, a countdown to something terrible."Orion nodded, his gaze fixated on the ever-growing mist. "These ruins are ancient, but they're not just a pile of stones. They were built for a purpose, and I fear that the prophecy isn't just pointing to an event but to a location. We might be standing right on top of it."A gust of wind blew, carrying with it soft, haunting whispers. Words formed, echoing around them, "Seek the heart, mend the part..."Liora strained her ears, trying to catch more of the elusive voices. "Did you
Being sold To The Highest Bidder Chapter 48: Whispers of the Past
The mysterious figure took a step closer, the soft rustling of their cloak the only sound in the tense atmosphere. Every tree, every leaf, seemed to hold its breath, waiting for what would come next.Orion instinctively positioned himself in front of Liora, shielding her. His hand subtly moved to the hilt of his sword. "Who are you?" he demanded, trying to sound more confident than he felt.The figure chuckled, the sound low and mocking. "Names have power, young guardian. But you can call me Malachi."Liora's eyes widened with recognition, memories flooding back. "Malachi? The shadow weaver from the legends?"Malachi laughed again, louder this time, and it felt as though the forest itself shivered in response. "Legends? Oh, how little you know. I am as real as the threats you face.""What do you want with the Tapestry?" Liora inquired, her voice firm, but a hint of curiosity breaking through."Ah, the Tapestry," Malachi mused, circling them slowly like a predator sizing up its prey. "

The portal's vastness dwarfed the trio, its swirling colors shimmering and beckoning them to step inside. Each of them could feel the weight of the prophecy, the words etching themselves deep into their minds.Caelum was the first to speak, trying to lighten the mood. "Well, that wasn't ominous at all, was it?"Liora frowned, her fingers tracing the now still pages of the Celestial Codex. "This isn't a jest, Caelum. We have to understand the meaning behind this prophecy if we're to navigate the trials ahead."Aria took a deep breath, her eyes fixed on the portal. "The question is, who among us will falter? Who will betray? And who... who will choose to fade away?""Does it matter?" Caelum replied, a hint of bitterness in his voice. "If we start doubting each other now, we've already lost."Liora placed a hand on his arm. "But we need to be prepared. If there's even a chance the prophecy is about us, we need to be vigilant."Aria nodded, her blue eyes sparkling with determination. "Lio

The mist was thick, almost suffocating. Aria tried to call out to Caelum and Liora, but her voice was swallowed by the overwhelming silence. She could hear her heart racing, each beat echoing loudly in her ears.Suddenly, her reflection emerged from the fog, moving gracefully towards her. "So we finally meet, face to face," it sneered. "Are you ready to confront your deepest fears?"Aria summoned her courage. "I won't be defeated by you or this illusion."Her reflection laughed, a haunting, echoing sound. "This is no illusion. This is a reflection of your inner turmoil, your guilt, and your fears."As they spoke, flames began to rise around them, threatening to engulf Aria. "Remember the village?" her reflection whispered. "The one you accidentally set ablaze with your unchecked powers? Those screams still haunt you."Aria gritted her teeth, memories flooding back. "It was an accident. I've grown since then.""But have you forgiven yourself?" the reflection taunted.Across the vast ex

In the heart of a room, brimming with the underworld's most infamous werewolf kingpins, I find myself questioning the twisted turn my life has taken. My father, the formidable Alpha Don Julio, has thrust me into this auction, offering me to the one with the deepest pockets."500... 1000... 100,000..." The bids are rising quickly around me, as I stand exposed on the pedestal." Their disgusting eyes scan my body, evaluating my worth, calculating how much it will cost to have me in their possession. Just when the tension feels unbearable, a chilling voice cuts through the murmurs: Alpha Johnathon Dupree, the feared leader of the White Wolf Pack, declares, "One million dollars.""One million going once, one million going twice, one million for the third and final call... Sold!" The auctioneer's gavel struck, "To the man in the blue-gray suit up front."Hearing the finality in those words, a wave of dread washed over me. The tales of his notorious cruelty towards women echoed in my mind, ma
