Lahat ng Kabanata ng Auctioned Off To Alpha Anton: Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 75

Two whole days and she’s not caught a glimpse of Anton and Tanya. The remaining part of the ceremony was cancelled and everybody returned home to their various packs amidst grumbles and complaints. For the next week, all everybody including the maids in the palace spoke about was the upcoming duel and Kyra could not find it in her to sit still. She was agitated even when she knew the duel was not until a few months time. She wanted to find Anton so that they could talk but he was always busy, so she began to suspect that he was actually avoiding her. Tanya included. She could not blame Tanya though, she lost her temper the other night and it was unforgivable. Tanya was her friend and she won’t intentionally do anything to hurt Kyra, especially as she knew all Kyra has been through and she has accused Tanya of doing exactly that.

Believe me, I didn't mean to. I tried to come back to visit you multiple times but there was no chance to do so. I did not know when exactly I’d be back so

“Cynthia doesn’t know because she’s never seen me faint before. And since Doctor Philips has never been called to check on me after it happened, he has no idea either.”“Damn it!” Anton let go of her hand and stood up abruptly from the bed. He marched toward the door, his body tense with frustration, but after a few seconds, he turned around and walked back to her.Kyra couldn’t bring herself to meet his eyes. She was afraid of what she might see in them—anger and disappointment. Her fingers nervously twisted the edge of the blanket as the mattress dipped beside her again when Anton sat down.He returned to the same spot, close enough to touch her, but she could still feel the distance between them.“How many times have you fainted?” he asked quietly, though his tone was still sharp.Kyra hesitated. She considered lying, saying it had only happened once. But his earlier words about how scared he had been that she wouldn’t wake up echoed in her mind. That fear had been real. If she lie
