Lahat ng Kabanata ng BOUGHT BY THE ALPHA WHO DESPISES ME : Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

Mila's pov…… I, Knox Mercer, future Alpha of the Crescent Moon Pack, reject you, Mila Carter, as my mate.” I hated parties. There, I said it. And not just any parties — school parties, the kind where everyone drank too much, and these were people I saw in school everyday, so it was basically just watching them turn into drunk teens, on a school weekend. Mila! Stop overthinking and come on!” Jenna groaned, tugging me toward the Mercer mansion. I adjusted the straps of the black dress I’d borrowed from her. It hugged my waist tighter than I liked, but it was the only decent thing I owned. Unlike most of the girls here, I didn’t have a rich Alpha family backing me. I straightened my hair twice and applied a red lipstick. “With all the hot males there, you may even see your mate” Mate. My wolf, Rina purred I couldn't wait to see my mate, I turned Eighteen few months back and have been waiting for the pull of my mate. Future Alpha Knox Mercer of our crescent moon pack was hos

7years later….. Mila's pov… The car was silent, as I sat at the back of Gamma Rodney's car, the car hummed along the highway, and every flickering streetlight that passed outside made my heart beat faster. My stomach twisted, and my hands were fisted so tightly that my nails dug into my palm, almost drawing blood. “Don’t look so nervous,” Rodney muttered, glancing at me briefly. “It’ll only make things worse.” I swallowed hard, trying to steady my trembling voice. “I… I’m fine,” I whispered, though the word tasted like ash on tongue I wasn’t fine. I wasn’t fine at all, Rodney was taking me to an auction. This wasn’t just any auction. This was the legal, high-profile, Alpha-controlled auction — the one every wealthy pack member, every influential Alpha, every member of the North packs and surrounding territories attended. All the women came willingly, they were all dressed to dazzle male wolves, to flirt and to show themselves off. They laughed backstage, adjusting the

Mila’s POV….. I still couldn't believe that Knox Mercer bought me. Gamma Rodney didn’t look at me when he pulled me backstage. The applause was still echoing from the hall when the door shut behind us, cutting the noise. My knees felt weak, my heart still hammering like it hadn’t figured out yet that I was no longer on display. “You did good,” Rodney said finally, breaking the silence. I laughed—a short, cracked sound that surprised even me. “Good?” My voice shook. “I was sold.” He stopped walking and turned to face me. “You sold for a very good amount, Mila. Two hundred thousand. That’s more than enough.” The number didn’t feel real. Nothing did. I wrapped my arms around myself, suddenly aware of how exposed I still was in the dress. “Then take what I owe you,” I said quickly, before I could lose my nerve. “All of it. And the rest—please—use it to take care of my father. His medicine, his room, everything. I don’t want him moved from the hospital and help me pay my remain

Mila’s POV….. “No!“ Knox dropped his glass and Caleb got up immediately “Let's all calm down and be civil” he said softly “You don't really have a choice Mila, what if I send you back to the auction and get a new girl Instead” My heart dropped, if he took me back I wouldn't be so lucky to get a less evil Alpha I could end up becoming a sex slave. I sat back down quietly and gave him a middle finger, Caleb stifled a chuckle. “Since you’re going to be my Luna” Knox said calmly, “you should understand exactly what that entails.” My fingers curled into the satin at my sides. “Explain it, then.” His eyes flicked to mine briefly, assessing whether that tone was rebellion or resignation. Maybe both. He finally lowered himself into the armchair across from me, crossing one ankle over his knee. He looked calm and controlled like this was a board meeting. “Tomorrow,” he began, “you’ll sign a legal agreement drafted by my attorney and approved by the council.” Of cours

Knox’s POV…… The car doors shut behind me with a sharp click, leaving Mila alone inside. I didn’t care. Mila was annoying and infuriating, she tested my limits. The second I stepped into the house, I could smell her sweet scent of roses and citrus and I hated it. Everywhere I looked she was there. I couldn't control my wolf today when I saw her in that dress and her new makeover. She has that impossible, infuriating grace that made my blood run hot against my better judgment. I hate her. I hate noticing how beautiful she is. I hate that my body reacts to her. I hate that she even exists in this world with the audacity to survive. I hate everything that reminds me she was mine once, and I rejected her. And most of all, I hate that I don’t want to hate her entirely. I walked into my study, shutting the door behind me with a solid thump. The room smelled of polished mahogany, old leather, and a faint trace of smoke. My mind was trying to ignore the tension from
