EMILY

The moment I saw Karen step out of the car,I lost every bit of composure in me. She looked exhausted, her clothes were wrinkled, her hair was a tangled mess—but she was alive. That was all that mattered.

We had dinner later that evening and it was when we were gathered together that the Councilmen broke the news of their proposed plan to oust the Alpha.

Lucas exhaled and stood, nodding once. “Very well, Councilman Greyson."

He turned to us briefly. “Continue without me. I’ll return short

    Emily POVI could not stop thinking about what I had felt.Even after Lucas carried me back to our room.Even after he sat beside me for almost an hour, refusing to leave until he was sure I was alright.Even after I promised him three different times that I was not about to collapse.My mind would not let it go.The others.That was what scared me.Not the creature we had just destroyed.The others.The moment that thing disappeared, I had felt something.A reaction.Like ripples spreading across water.Like distant eyes suddenly opening.I knew it sounded crazy.But it was true.Somehow, I knew they had felt it.And somehow...They now knew where I was.I sat by the window while dawn slowly approached.The sky was turning gray.Birds were beginning to sing.Everything looked peaceful.Normal.But nothing about my life was normal anymore.A few weeks ago, I had been planning a wedding.Now I was apparently some ancient power carrier who was attracting monsters from underground.I lau

  • SOLD AS THE ALPHA KING'S PET    CHAPTER 136

    Emily's POVI knew something was wrong the moment Lucas carried me back to our room.My body felt weak. It was as though something inside me had been stretched too far.I could still walk if I forced myself to.I could still speak.But every part of me felt drained.Lucas did not let me take a single step on my own.The moment we entered the room, he carried me straight to the bed and sat beside me.His face was tense.His jaw was locked tightly.I could tell he was trying not to show how worried he was.Unfortunately for him, I knew him too well now."You should rest," he said.I smiled weakly."You have said that at least ten times tonight.""I'll say it another ten."That actually made me laugh a little.The laugh quickly faded when I remembered what had happened in the hallway.The shadow.The connection.The way it had felt.I looked down at my hands.They looked normal.Completely normal.Yet I could still remember the feeling.It had not been a conversation.Not exactly.But so

  • SOLD AS THE ALPHA KING'S PET    CHAPTER 135

    Lucas POVI stood there for several seconds with Emily weak against my chest while the corridor remained completely still around us. The lights had stopped flickering, the shaking had ended, and the cold pressure in the air was finally gone, yet none of it made me relax. If anything, the quiet made my thoughts louder. Emily’s words repeated themselves inside my head.The others felt it too.That meant they were connected somehow.Not by sight.Not by sound.Something deeper.Something worse.I tightened my arm around Emily carefully and looked down at her. Her face had gone pale, and there was sweat gathered near her forehead despite how cold the corridor had been moments ago.“You need to sit down,” I told her quietly.“I’m fine,” she whispered immediately.“You can barely stand.”“I said I’m fine.”Her voice was weak, but stubborn enough to almost make me sigh. Even exhausted, she still tried to fight everything alone.I bent slightly and lifted her into my arms before she could pro

  • SOLD AS THE ALPHA KING'S PET    CHAPTER 134

    Lucas POVI was still holding Emily when the last trace of that thing disappeared, but my mind had already moved ahead of the moment. Her words kept repeating in my head. They felt it too. That was not just a warning. It was a fact. Whatever those things were, they were connected in a way we did not fully understand yet, and by destroying one of them, we had just sent a message to the rest.I tightened my hold on her slightly as I looked down at her face. She looked drained, far more than she had earlier. Her eyes were still open, but there was a dullness in them that had not been there before. It was not weakness. It was exhaustion. Deep exhaustion, the kind that came from something more than just the body.“Emily,” I said quietly.She blinked slowly and looked up at me, her lips parting slightly as if she wanted to speak, but nothing came out at first. I could feel her breathing against me, uneven now, like her body was trying to catch up with what had just happened.“You need to re

  • SOLD AS THE ALPHA KING'S PET    CHAPTER 133

    Lucas POVI stood there for a few seconds longer, still holding Emily in my arms, my eyes fixed on the spot where the shadow had been. Nothing remained. No mark, no trace, nothing to show that something unnatural had just existed there. But I knew better than to trust what I could see. The absence of something dangerous did not mean it was gone. Sometimes it only meant it had moved.Emily’s weight shifted slightly against me, and I looked down at her. Her eyes were still open, but they were heavy now, her strength drained from whatever she had just done. Her breathing was slow, uneven, like her body was trying to catch up with what had just happened.“We need to get you back,” I said quietly.She nodded faintly, but she didn’t speak.I did not wait any longer. I lifted her properly into my arms and turned back down the corridor. The guards moved out of the way immediately, their eyes filled with questions they did not dare ask. I ignored them. Right now, nothing mattered more than get

    Lucas POVThe steel doors slammed shut with a sound that echoed through the corridor.For half a second, no one moved.The alarms screamed overhead. Red lights flashed across the concrete walls. Dust rained down from the ceiling as the building trembled again, deeper this time.Emily’s hand tighten

    Lucas POVI stood in the middle of the hall long after the guests had been escorted out. My hands were clenched so tightly my nails dug into my palms. I welcomed the pain. It reminded me I was still here. Still breathing. Still responsible.Chris stood a few feet away, giving orders to the guards.

    Emily’s POVThe first thing I noticed was the smell.It was not the damp, cold smell of the room I had been kept in before. This place smelled like wood and smoke, like an old house that had been closed for a long time. I slowly opened my eyes.The ceiling above me was wooden. Dark brown. Old. Ther

    Clarisse's POVA few hours before the wedding, I sat on the edge of my bed, staring at my hands for a long time. They were shaking. I pressed them together hard, as if that could stop the storm inside me. The room was quiet, too quiet for a day that was meant to be full of joy. Somewhere in the dis
