Semua Bab The Wolf Hunter's Daughter : Bab 1 - Bab 5

“And now, ladies and gentlemen, the moment you’ve all been waiting for…” Drumroll please. “Our last item of the evening.” The auctioneer laid the suspense on thick while I waited in the eaves, shaking and exhausted. There were so many girls before me that were auctioned off and I stood there for hours. He kept me for last on purpose, that cruel wolf. Because that was what they did with the hated ones.“I give you… Erina Saul, the wolf hunter’s daughter.”A roar went up from the crowd. They were hungry for blood. My blood. Because of what my parents were.The handler shoved me onto the stage. I hardly kept my balance on the ridiculous heels they made me wear, and the shackles on my ankles made it even harder. Glaring spotlights hurt my eyes, but I welcomed the heat they provided temporary relief to my frozen body. A gray sea of faceless people stared up at me. Probably for the best that I couldn’t see the hatred on their faces.“Pretty, isn’t she?” the auctioneer grabbed my face, turni

It didn’t take long for me to pass out.Someone dragged me out of the bed and threw me to the floor. Out of nowhere, I got a kick in the ribs, which left me gasping. Next thing I know, someone's yanking my hair. “What the fuck are you doing in the king’s bed?” My attacker was a woman. A furious woman. And she was angry enough to kill me.I tried to reach her painful grip on my hair and got a punch in the gut for my effort.“Answer me! How dare you sleep in his bed!” she screamed like a demon. Her beautiful face wore a mask of hatred. Another one of those beautiful monsters.“I-I didn’t know… Please, he never said…” There was no use talking to her. She shook me like I
