All Chapters of SOLD AS THE ALPHA KING'S PET : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Lucas’ POVI still couldn't believe it. The fact that he had walked into my pack, as if he had the right, was enough to drive me mad. But what made it worse was his calm, collected arrogance. Kael always carried himself like a man who thought five steps ahead of everyone else, and that made him dangerous. “That bastard,” I muttered under my breath, running my hand through my hair.Chris was now standing a few feet away, waiting for me to speak."Do you believe him?” he asked cautiously.I looked up. “About what?”"About the elders… about losing the pack?”I stood abruptly. “Gather the Councilmen,” I ordered.Chris hesitated for a second. “All of them?”I turned to him slowly. “Every single one.”He nodded and walked out, leaving me alone with my thoughts. I paced the study again, unable to stay still. Every minute that passed, I grew more restless. And that last statement he made before leaving.‘If I were you, Lucas, I wouldn’t trust either of those girls. I trained them. And I ho

Emily’s POVI balanced the tray carefully as I walked down the hallway leading to Lucas’s study. The aroma of the food I’d prepared filled the air. It was roasted chicken in creamy sauce, baked potatoes, and a light vegetable salad. Mrs. Higgins had offered to help, but I’d refused. I wanted to do this myself. Lucas barely ate these days, and I knew that if I could at least make him eat something good, it would help him relax, even for a little while.I took a deep breath before knocking on the heavy wooden door.“Come in,” his deep voice answered.When I pushed open the door, Lucas was seated behind his desk, a pile of documents in front of him, and his untouched breakfast still sitting to the side. He looked like he hadn’t rested in months.“Emily,” he turned to me. “You didn’t have to come here.”“I wanted to,” I replied, setting the tray on a small table near him. “You haven’t eaten since morning.”He gave a smile. “You’ve been watching me?”“Yes," I eyed him. He chuckled under h

Lucas’s POVThe moment I heard her scream, I didn’t even think. My heart leapt straight into my mouth, and I sprinted toward the kitchen.When I got there, steam clouded the air, and the first thing I saw was Clarisse clutching her hand, red and trembling. The kettle lay overturned on the counter, hot water still dripping from its spout onto the floor.“Clarisse!” I barked, rushing forward, but the moment my eyes met hers, I froze. There was no panic but just a subtle bit of satisfaction in her gaze.Still, I crouched beside her. “What the hell happened?”“I–I was trying to make tea, and the kettle slipped,” she muttered.I frowned, glancing at her blistering skin. “You shouldn’t be touching this without help. Why didn’t you call someone?”“I didn’t want to bother anyone,” she said, lowering her eyes. “I know everyone’s busy with Emily and Karen around.”I caught the sarcasm in her tone, but I didn’t respond."Stay still,” I muttered, calling one of the guards. “Get Dr. Halford here n

EMILY’S POVThe sound of steady beeping from the heart monitor was the only thing that reminded me that Lucas was still alive. His body lay there, still and pale, the strong Alpha I knew now reduced to a fragile version of himself. I had barely left his side since the attack. My eyes burned from crying, my body weak from exhaustion, but I refused to rest.When his fingers twitched slightly against mine, I sat upright, holding my breath. Then his eyelids moved. Slowly, Lucas’s eyes fluttered open.“Lucas,” I whispered, my voice cracking. “Lucas, can you hear me?”His lips parted, but no sound came out. I pressed the call button for the doctor, my heart racing in relief. “He’s awake! Somebody, please!”Before the nurse could even enter, the door swung open violently, and Clarisse stormed in. Her hair was messy, her eyes swollen, and her expression carried that familiar blend of jealousy and drama.“What have you done to him?” she cried, her voice echoing through the small hospital room.

LUCAS’S POVThe day we left the hospital, the world outside looked brighter than I remembered. The sun was high, the air was warm, and birds chirped from the trees.I walked out of those hospital doors knowing something no Alpha should ever have to face: my time was almost up.Emily was ahead, talking with one of the nurses about medications. Chris walked beside me, carrying my discharge file and muttering about the “incompetence” of hospital staff. Clarisse was nowhere to be found which, honestly, was a relief.I didn’t say a word until we reached the car.Chris helped me in, then climbed into the passenger seat. The drive back to the mansion was quiet. Emily kept glancing at me through the rearview mirror, and I could tell she was worried, even if she didn’t ask.By the time we reached home, I was exhausted. The moment I stepped inside, I dismissed everyone else and gestured for Chris to follow me to the study.When the door shut behind us, I leaned against the desk and exhaled. “C
