All Chapters of Sold to the cursed Alpha : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

~Ni-ki~I knew this was gonna be a shitshow the second Jace insisted on coming with me, like I needed a grumpy babysitter to hold my hand while I batted my eyelashes at a bunch of creeps. But fine, whatever, Rowan said yes, and now here we were, trudging through the dark toward the border like two idiots who forgot how to stay home.Jace hadn't said more than ten words the whole drive. Just gripped the wheel, jaw tight, eyes flicking to me every time I shifted in my seat. I spent most of it messing with my hair in the visor mirror, making sure I looked properly pathetic and fuck able cropped hoodie riding up, jeans tight enough to make anyone stare, lip gloss shiny. Gotta sell the stray omega vibe hard.When we got close, he pulled over, killed the engine. "Remember the story."I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, yeah. I'm the abused little runaway looking for a new pack. You're the big bad ambassador from the princess's husband, escorting me because you're oh-so-noble. We don't know each other

~Niki~I woke up to Jace's arm still slung over me like dead weight, his breath hot on my neck, and for a second I just laid there grinning like an idiot because damn, the big bad ambassador snores a little when he's out cold. Cute. Annoying. Whatever. I poked his ribs hard."Wake up, princess. Your toy needs breakfast."He groaned, rolled over, and shoved a pillow over his face. "Five more minutes.""No. I'm starving and apparently I eat with the omegas today, remember? Gotta go play submissive little stray before someone gets suspicious."He sat up fast, hair sticking everywhere, eyes narrowing. "You're not going alone.""Uh, yeah I am. That's the whole point. You hover too much and they'll know something's up." I hopped off the bed, stretched dramatically, tank riding up just to watch his eyes flick down and then away quickly. "Relax. I'll flirt, I'll listen, I'll be back by lunch with all the dirty secrets."He rubbed his face hard. "Niki…. ""Stop. We talked about this. Trust me

~Niki~I woke up with Jace's mouth already on my neck, sucking slow and lazy like he had all the time in the world, his hand sliding down my stomach and wrapping around my dick before I even got my eyes open properly. I groaned, hips bucking up automatic because fuck, morning wood plus Jace's grip equals zero brain cells."Jesus, warn a guy," I muttered, voice cracked from sleep and all the yelling I'd done last night.He laughed against my skin, teeth scraping the fresh bruise he'd left hours ago. "Morning to you too, stray.""Shut up." I shoved at his shoulder but didn't really mean it, especially when he stroked me slow and twisted his wrist just right. "You're insatiable, you know that?""Pot calling the kettle horny." He bit my earlobe hard enough I yelped. "You were grinding on me in your sleep.""Was not.""You were too. Kept making these little noises." He did a shitty imitation, high-pitched and whiny, and I elbowed him in the ribs."Fuck off with that voice, you sound like a

~Niki~I was still sitting there on the couch, legs pulled up, Jace’s hands on my face, his thumbs wiping at nothing because the tears hadn’t started yet, just this shaky adrenaline buzz making my skin crawl, when the door flew open so hard it smacked the wall and bounced.Elara stormed in like a hurricane, mascara running black down her cheeks, hair wild, finger already pointed straight at me like a gun.“This is YOUR fault, you little whore!” she screamed, voice cracking high. “You seduced him the second we left! You couldn’t wait to spread your legs for my dad, could you? STUPID STRAY”I blinked, mouth dropping open. “Excuse me?”Jace shot up fast, stepping half in front of me but not full, like he was trying to play stranger. “Hey, whoa, back off. You don’t know what you’re talking about.”Elara ignored him completely, eyes locked on me, stepping closer. “Don’t play innocent! You’re a stray omega, that’s all you’re good for, right? Jumping on any alpha who looks at you twice!”Lun

~Niki~The enforcers marched us down the hall like we were some fancy parade nobody wanted to watch, Milo in front, the others flanking, nobody touching us but close enough I could smell their sweat and that stupid pine cologne they all wear.My face was throbbing in rhythm with my heartbeat, lip fat and sticky, cheek hot like it was on fire, and every step made me want to puke from the leftover panic attack.Jace kept his hand locked in mine the whole way, thumb rubbing over my knuckles like that could fix anything, but I didn’t pull away because honestly it was the only thing keeping me from bolting screaming in the opposite direction.We turned the corner into the Alpha’s chambers and the doors were already open wide, whole place packed shoulder to shoulder Luna standing stiff near the front, arms crossed so tight her knuckles were white, Elara beside her with red eyes and that smug little chin tilt she does when she thinks she’s won, pack elders lined up along the walls looking bo
