Sold To The Ruthless Lycan King Chapter 6: Leftovers
Lyra's POVNo one spoke after the King left his study. It was as though he had taken all the oxygen in the room with him, leaving the rest of us suffocating in his wake.The captain of the guard straightened his shoulders, breaking the silence. "You heard His Majesty's orders."Two guards stepped toward me, their shadows blocking out the warmth of the fireplace. "On your feet."I pushed myself up, my palms slipping slightly on the polished stone. But the moment I tried to transfer the weight to my legs, they gave out entirely. I crashed back down, my teeth rattling.One of the guards clicked his tongue in irritation. "Pathetic."He grabbed my upper arm so roughly his fingers dug straight into the muscle, dragging me upward until I had no choice but to bear weight. "Walk."I forced one foot in front of the other, my body screaming in protest. Every single step sent a sharp, agonizing flare through my bruised ribs and split knees. The captain led our small procession down endles

Lyra's POVThe maid's agonizing screams followed us long after she vanished down the corridor.Each strike of the whip echoed off the high stone walls, vibrating right through the soles of my feet.Crack!"Ahhh!"Crack!"Please... mercy! Forgive me!"I flinched, my shoulders drawing inward. It wasn't because I wasn't used to hearing people scream. It was because I was. I had simply forgotten how much it mutilated your soul to listen to it when you were entirely powerless to stop it.No one else reacted. The servants continued meticulously polishing the marble floors. The guards stood like granite statues. Even the nobles walking through the hall conversed casually, acting as though nothing out of the ordinary was happening.As if a young woman wasn't having the flesh ripped from her spine just a few yards away.This place... it was worse than the slave market. At least there, people openly admitted they were monsters. Here, they hid their cruelty behind pristine uniforms, h
Sold To The Ruthless Lycan King Chapter 4: The King's Orders
Lyra's POVCold.That was the first thing that pierced through the darkness. Not the soft, quiet chill that crept into drafty rooms during winter nights. This cold was vicious. It bit aggressively through my torn dress, seeped into my skin, and settled deep inside the marrow of my bones."...Still breathing."A heavy leather boot callously nudged my ribs."Unfortunately."Cruel laughter followed the remark. I tried to force my eyelids open, but they felt impossibly heavy, glued shut by exhaustion and frost."Your Majesty," a guard's voice echoed from above me. "She's completely unconscious.""So?"The single word was flat. Utterly devoid of emotion. I recognized that voice instantly.The Lycan King."Should we carry her inside, sire?"A long, suffocating silence answered him. Then—"If she cannot stand on her own, she is useless to me."My heart sank. Even through the heavy fog of my fading consciousness, those words cut deep into my chest.The guard hesitated, his arm
Sold To The Ruthless Lycan King Chapter 3: Property of the Lycan King
Lyra's POVThe new collar felt heavier than all the iron chains combined.Its thick, black leather dug mercilessly into my bruised neck, completely covering the faded slave brand beneath it. It felt symbolic—as if it were seamlessly replacing one nightmare with another.A guard brutally shoved my shoulder from behind. "Move."I stumbled, my bare feet catching on the uneven floorboards. My legs were completely hollow from days without a proper meal, but I forced my muscles to lock and keep moving. Get up. Keep moving. Falling was dangerous. Falling meant getting kicked, or worse. I had learned that lesson the hard way when I was only ten years old.As we walked out, the auction house slowly buzzed back to life behind us. The whispers of the nobles followed me like a shroud."Poor girl.""She'll be dead before the week is out.""They say the Lycan King has executed servants just for making eye contact.""I heard he feeds disobedient slaves alive to his northern wolves."Every si
Sold To The Ruthless Lycan King Chapter 2: The Monster King
Lyra's POVDon't look at him.Whatever you do... don't look at him.My hands trembled against the rough, splintered wooden platform. Around me, every single person in the auction house bowed their heads in a rush of sudden, suffocating terror. Even the slave traders—men who normally smiled while breaking helpless people—were suddenly frozen, staring at the floorboards like their lives depended on it.I didn't need to look up to know who had just walked through those shattered gates. Everyone knew the stories of the Monster of the North.The ruthless Lycan King.The king who had burned an entire pack alive after they tried to poison his vanguard. The king who had executed his own uncle for treason on the steps of the palace, denying him a trial, mercy, or a proper burial.The chains around my wrists suddenly felt ten times heavier, the iron cold against my skin. I lowered my head even further, trying to press myself into the wood.Maybe if I stay invisible... maybe he won't not

Lyra's POV "No! Please… not my daughter!"The desperate scream shattered against the heavy, stagnant air, but it didn't move a single soul in the market. No one cared.Crack!The sound of the barbed whip slicing through the heat made me flinch. Beside me, a middle-aged woman collapsed onto the splintered wooden platform. A dark crimson stain instantly bloomed across the back of her torn burlap dress, soaking into the fabric."One more word," the slave trader snarled, wiping a bead of sweat from his brow, "and I’ll cut out your tongue."Amused laughter rippled through the gathered crowd of nobles, their fine silk clothes glinting in the harsh sun.I stood frozen, the heavy iron shackles biting mercilessly into my raw wrists and ankles. I didn’t cry. I had learned years ago that in a world like this, tears were useless. They were just free entertainment for cruel people, and I refused to give them the satisfaction.Around me, dozens of captives knelt with their heads bowed, wai
