Declan’s POV

“I did not plan to say it,” I told them, even though nobody had asked and even though it was already obvious from the way my mouth felt like it had betrayed me without permission.

Rider was looking at me like this was a conclusion he had reached weeks ago and simply waited for me to arrive at, and Raven was staring at the floor with something on his face that was not quite relief and not quite amusement, maybe recognition, and I suddenly felt like I had emptied my pockets in a room

  • SOLD TO THE ALPHA KING   Chapter 56: The Blood Moon Ritual

    Declan's POV “The alternative is a blood moon ritual,” Callum said, “no preparation period, no ceremonial buffer, full consent from all parties and all three marks in one night.”I felt the tension in the room shift as the temperature droppedRider’s head tilted slightly, already calculating, already pulling threads together, and I could see Bailey watching all of us at once like she was trying to decide where the real danger was sitting.Callum continued, “It is also where Sera Voss becomes a problem.”That made my attention snap fully onto him.“Sera,” I repeated, slower than I intended, “what does she have to do with this.”Callum did not look away, “Voss brought his daughter into Thorne territory six days ago under diplomatic cover, my sources flagged it immediately.”Rider’s expression hardened instantly, “You are telling me this now.”Callum lifted a shoulder slightly, “It was not relevant until the ritual options became immediate.”Bailey’s eyes moved between us, sharp and alr

  • SOLD TO THE ALPHA KING   Chapter 55: Voss

    Rider's POV I stayed on the floor longer than I needed to and I did not care who saw because standing outside that door for forty minutes listening to her breath break and rebuild itself while I did nothing had taken something out of me.“I am not moving yet,” I muttered, mostly to myself, because my hands were still shaking and I did not trust them to do anything gentle.Raven was crouched near her, voice low, steady, the way he gets when he is holding a room together by sheer refusal to panic, “You can sit there for another minute if you want, she is breathing fine now.”“I know,” I answered, still not moving, “I just need to see it stay that way.”Bailey shifted slightly on the floor, blanket tight around her shoulders, eyes bright in a way that made my chest ache, “You are allowed to look at me, Rider, I am not going to disappear if you blink.”I laughed once, breathless and ugly, and finally pushed myself up onto my knees, closer to her, “I am looking, I am just trying to make m

  • SOLD TO THE ALPHA KING   Chapter 54: Something changed

    Bailey’s POVI did it that night because if I waited until morning I knew fear would get a hold of me and I'd chicken out.“I am not sleeping first,” I told them, standing near the door with my arms folded tight against myself, “if I sleep I will talk myself out of it and I am done letting that happen.”Rider opened his mouth immediately, concern already forming, but Raven spoke before he could, voice calm and deliberate, “Then we do it now, but not with all of us in the room.”Declan’s eyes flicked between the two of us, then settled on me, “You are sure.”“I am not sure,” I answered honestly, “I am just not waiting.”Raven nodded once, then looked at his brothers, “Wait outside, both of you.”Rider frowned, “I should stay.”Bailey shook her head, “I need you not here for this, I need one voice and I need it steady.”Declan hesitated, then nodded slowly, “We will be right outside.”Rider did not argue again, which told me more than any reassurance would have, and the door closed soft

  • SOLD TO THE ALPHA KING   Chapter 53: Reject the bond

    Bailey’s POV“What could suppress a shift like that,” I asked, my voice coming out thinner than I wanted it to. “Not just delay it but stop it completely and that early.”Callum did not answer immediately and that pause made my heart race.“It would have to be a binding,” he said finally. “Old craft. Fae linked. Something placed on a wolf before they are old enough to understand what they are.”Rider swore under his breath. “That kind of thing is illegal.”“It’s rare,” Callum replied calmly. “And it’s cruel. Which is why it works.”I sat back slowly. “You’re saying someone did this to me before I even knew what a wolf was.”“Yes,” he said. “And they did it well.”Raven’s voice was low. “It would explain why your heat cycles were manageable before the palace.”“And why everything feels so wrong now,” I added quietly. “Why it feels too much and not enough at the same time.”Declan leaned forward. “Your wolf always felt distant.”I nodded. “Muffled. That’s the word I always used.”Rider

  • SOLD TO THE ALPHA KING   Chapter 51

    Bailey's POV “Stop talking like I don’t remember what I did,” Rider had finally spoken, voice low.Raven answered him immediately, not moving from where he stood, “You remember what you did, Rider, you just don’t remember what it cost because you weren’t the one paying it every day after it happened.”Raven’s gaze did not break, not even for a second, and I felt a chill run down my spine “I sat in that tribunal room alone for three months,” Raven continued, voice still controlled, “and I watched them decide what version of me they were going to allow to exist, while you had information that would have ended it in a day and you chose the pack’s political position over your brother’s name.”Rider’s jaw tightened slightly, but he still did not interrupt.Raven kept going, “Two years I believed I failed Hera, I carried that like it was mine alone, but the truth is you failed both of us and you filed it under strategy like that made it clean.”My fingers curled at my sides as I listened,

  • SOLD TO THE ALPHA KING   Chapter 16: Bailey’s breaking point

    Bailey’s POVI couldn’t stop replaying Raven’s words in my head even after breakfast was long over, every step I took beside him feeling careful, measured, like I was walking on something fragile and didn’t want to be the one to crack it, and the worst part was that I didn’t even know what I was af

    Bailey’s POVLaila didn’t answer me right away and the silence stretched long enough that I almost regretted asking, she looked like someone who had been handed a fragile thing she did not want to drop, her fingers twisting together in her lap, her gaze fixed on the wooden floor like waiting for it

  • SOLD TO THE ALPHA KING   Chapter 18

    Bailey’s POVI didn’t know what to do with Raven standing there in front of me like that because I was used to Rider’s anger that filled a room and Declan’s jokes that never stopped flowing, but Raven was quiet, still and intense in a way that made my thoughts scatter instead of sharpening, and it

  • SOLD TO THE ALPHA KING   Chapter 13 — Unchained

    Bailey’s POVI paced around my room throughout the day, restless as I waited for him to return. Hours passed slowly, stretching into evening, and eventually exhaustion won. I lay down on the bed, pulling the duvet up to my chest and tucking myself in.It was nearly midnight when I heard the sound of
