Semua Bab SOLD TO THE ALPHA WHO HATES ME: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Serafine’s POVSaskia's gasp froze me. Fear unleashed within me. She'd blocked the knife, and I stabbed her instead of myself.Bran hurried out of bed. His eyes wide and red. His gaze moved from the frozen me to his swaying fiancée.He didn’t hesitate.He shoved me so hard that I flew back and hit the floor, air ripping from my lungs. Pain exploded through me. Before I could even cry out, he was already catching Saskia as she staggered, his arms wrapping around her instinctively.“Bran…” she whispered, her knees buckling.“I’ve got you,” he growled, his voice breaking as he lifted her into his arms.I sat there on the cold floor, watching him carry her to the bed like something precious and fragile. “Bring the first aid box,” he barked.A guard sprinted out and returned with a white box clutched to his chest. “Bring me a bucket.” the same guard rushed out and returned with a bucket. This time he didn't come alone. Beta Aric, Gamma Bane and Lupin walked in after him.They stood stun

Alpha Bran’s POVMy heart shook when the human girl stabbed Saskia—It wasn't just for Saskia's life, but for the aftermath of the incident.Saskia was my fiancée, yes. But she was also the daughter of Alpha Jayden, the former Alpha of Crescent Pack. Saskia was the bridge that held my pack and Crescent pack together as one.If Saskia had died or incurred a serious injury, a lot would have gone wrong. There would have been unavoidable bloodshed.Five years ago, I stood at the border of Crescent Pack with my army ready to fight and take their land the old way—Blood and death. But Saskia's parents had been wise. They offered me their only daughter to marry as a seal of allegiance between our packs. I agreed, and my engagement to Saskia bonded our packs into one. Crescent pack became Dark Mountain Pack. And their land, my land. They willingly submitted to me and my pack accepted them. Saskia became the symbol of unity, peace and balance in the pack. Her injury or death would shatter ever

Serafine's POV Grayson’s words wouldn’t stop echoing in my head.I paced to and fro in my room, rubbing my palms and blowing air on them every second. Anxiety clawed in my chest. Grayson might have meant something else when he said those words to me. But in my head, it meant a clue to run. To escape.I sat down at the edge of my tiny mattress and winced at the sharp pain in my back. Grayson had done his best to take care of my wounds, but they still itched. His voice haunted me. “No one is coming to save you. Only you can.”Panic surged inside me.He was right. No one was going to save me. Not my helpless poor mom. Not my dad who's in the grave. Not the stupid selfish uncles I have at home. Alpha Bran hated me. His subjects despised and mistreated me. They looked at me like I was less than dirt. Called me human like they were not. I was exhausted. And knew if I continued staying here, I would die.With a sigh, I looked at my folded servant uniform across the bed. I shook my head.

Serafine's POV “Lock me in here.” I said.Silence fell in the room. Aric and the Gammas exchanged looks before looking back at me.Bran's eyes showed with surprise. He wasn't expecting my answer.“So be it.” His voice was final. He turned and left. Aric, Gamma Lupin and Bane, Grayson, they all looked at me with suspicious eyes as they followed Alpha Bran.I would never have chosen to be treated by the doctor. If I did, I would have been exposed. Because I was never sick. Never had any constipation. The lies were just to cover up the truth that I attempted an escape.I stood still in the center of my room, head bowed, waiting to hear the door-lock click. Just as the heavy click of the lock slid into place, silence swallowed me whole. I was alone in my room. And would be for the next forty-eight hours. My knees buckled. I stumbled back and collapsed onto the bed. The thin mattress sighed under my weight as deeply as I did.If Alpha Bran had entered the room a minute earlier than me,

Alpha Bran’s POVI slammed the office door harder than necessary. My chest wouldn’t settle. Not after what I’d done.Punishing Serafine for refusing to go to work should have brought me satisfaction. This time it didn't. Ryker paced endlessly beneath my skin. He was restless and angry. ‘You hurt her again.’ He growled. I growled under my breath and dropped into my chair, rubbing my temples. Ryker has been difficult to handle ever since I met the human girl. Ever since he knew she was my fated mate. He always made sure to cloud my mind with the thoughts of her to make me want her.I didn’t want to think of her. I didn’t want to want her. But the urge was always there in my heart, aching for her. Aching to see her. To breathe her wonderful scent in. “No,” I muttered, clenching my fists. “She’s nothing.”The door opened softly.I didn’t look up at first, already knew who it was by the delicate floral perfume scent that cut through the room. “Bran, I brought your dinner,” Saskia said
