All Chapters of Auctioned to the Alpha: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I have heard that a person can tell the moment when their life is about to take a sharp turn. Maybe this is what they mean.“What are you doing?” The slave master suddenly appears at the doorway, his eyes red and his arms too thick that he might actually be in pain.His eyes wash through my naked body, hidden by nothing. We were all asked to line up to have our baths. I was the last in the queue and now, the only one left in the dark and musty bathroom.“I am…”He strides into the room without thinking, and a punch lands in my guts. The force pushes me to the ground as a loud scream falls from my lips.I feel the impact on my arms from the granite floor, but there is no time to nurse an injury because the slave master is still standing in front of me, a sneer on his face.“You think you are lucky because you are off to be auctioned today, aren’t you?”I stay on the floor, not saying a word. Talking back always gets them angry. And when they are angry…“Say something, stupid!”I shake

The Red Moon Ball is never meant to feel like a funeral. In fact, it is supposed to be the night the moon goddess comes down in all her glory and splendour to bless the wolves who decide to be mated tonight.But tonight, it feels like I am mourning.Everyone stands and moves to the side as the grand doors open, announcing my presence. They don’t look until I am past them and standing at the elevated platform.I can hear their chatter. They wonder who I will choose as my mate and Luna. After all, to them, it has been too long already.But not for me.The chatter in the hall dies as I clear my throat."I welcome you all to the fifteenth Red Moon Ball since I became Alpha of the Red Moon Pack," I start, watching the pack gather before me. They await the announcement, but the night is way too young.“Let tonight be a memorable one for us all, as the moon goddess showers us with her blessings.”I leave them hungry and waiting for more, retreating from the light into the seat meant for the

The scent of smoke burns my nostrils as Kael and I sprint through the jagged hills, heading for the borders. Some of the warriors from the rogue pack join us, shifting mid-air. Kael and I retain our human forms, easily keeping up.We meet the borders tainted, with bodies of our wolves on the floor, their eyes lifeless."Arghhhh!" Kael screams into the night air. I know he'll blame himself. Anytime something goes wrong, he finds a way to pin it on himself. He says if he were a better Rogue Alpha, he would be able to protect his pack better.But I know he is doing the best that he can, and these people who attacked us need to be taught a lesson.“Kael!” I call, going to stand in front of him. My hands clutch his arms as I force him to look into my eyes. “We can still pick up their scents. Let’s hit them back where it hurts.”He nods and springs into action, the rest of the pack charging after him as we race past the borders we have guarded for the last ten years, trailing the scent of t

I turn on the comfortable bed, murmuring words in my sleep. My hand touches something warm and hard, startling me.I slowly open my eyes and see a naked man in front of me. Memories of last night flood in, I stand up quickly, put on my clothes and without making a sound, tiptoe out.My journey back to the hills is cold and quiet. My boots snap on the gravel, but the fog silences the sound.My mind wanders back to the stranger. I don't know him, but something about him feels familiar. I wonder why my body melts to his touch, in ways I haven’t experienced. Not even with Kael.That's right Kael.Kael’s face flashes in my mind the way his jaw tightens when he’s angry, the steady warmth in his eyes when he looks at me.“I can't tell him about the stranger or what happened between us. He’ll feel disappointed.”I have to forget about last night, it never happened. By the time I reach the edge of the rogue pack’s territory, the sun is higher, thin light cutting through the mist.The guards o

Kael stands there, his gaze still on the floor. He doesn’t answer immediately, and the silence stretches until I can feel my heartbeat everywhere. He draws a long breath before replying.“Raya,” he says, quieter now, “you’ve been down for a while now. Tired. You think I haven’t noticed?”I freeze. My fingers curl into fists at my sides. “It’s nothing. Just fatigue.” I continue.“You don't have to treat me like I'm a child or something.” I shout.He shakes his head. “No. It’s more than that.”His eyes flicker down to my stomach before coming back up to mine. “Tell me I’m wrong.”I can’t. The words stick in my throat.He takes a small step closer, searching my face. “You think I wouldn’t feel it? That I wouldn’t sense the change in your scent?”My lips part, but nothing comes out.“Raya,” he says softly, “you’re carrying a life.”It feels like the air’s been punched out of me. I sit back down without meaning to, the ground shifting beneath me. I don’t even know what to say. I just stare
