All Chapters of BOUGHT BY THE ALPHA WHO DESPISES ME : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Knox's pov….The day had finally come.The Alpha coronation ceremony.I stood in front of the tall mirror in my chambers, staring at the reflection looking back at me.For once, I looked exactly like the Alpha King people expected me to be.The suit was black and rich like midnight. It had been tailored perfectly to my frame, hugging my shoulders and chest before falling cleanly down my body. Along the collar and cuffs ran intricate silver embroidery shaped like crescent moons and wolves, the official crest of the Crescent Moon Pack.A silver brooch rested near my heart, holding the ceremonial sash in place.The sash itself was dark blue, almost black, with thin threads of silver running through it like starlight.I adjusted the cuff of my sleeve.Just then the door burst open, my mum came in with curlers in her hair. “Are you ready Knox?“ She asked touching my hair and tousling it “I'm fine mother” I sighed “Please be respectful and do everything accordingly, we've practiced ye

Mila's pov….For a moment after I spoke, the entire ballroom stayed completely silent.I could hear my own heartbeat.Knox was still staring at me like he had forgotten how to speak.The candlelight from the chandeliers reflected in his dark eyes as his gaze slowly traveled over me—from my face, down the red dress, then back up again.Then he finally spoke in a low voice for only me to here.“You look…” he paused, like he was choosing the right word.“…breathtaking and stunning.” Heat rushed straight to my cheeks.My face burned so fast I could practically feel it.I was sure I was beet red by now.For a second I forgot that we were standing in front of hundreds of powerful wolves.I covered my face with one hand.“Oh my God,” I muttered quietly.A few soft chuckles rippled through the nearby crowd.Knox let out a low amused breath.“You're hiding?”“Yes,” I mumbled behind my fingers.He leaned slightly closer to me.“I just crowned you Luna in front of half the territory and you’re

Mila's pov…..Everything was pure chaos.People were shouting.Guards were rushing across the floor.Guests were backing away from the center and some Alphas were already releasing their Alpha aura.But in the middle of it all stood two men.Knox and Bastian.The air between them felt sharp enough to cut glass.I stood frozen near the edge of the room, my hands clenched tightly at my sides. My heart was pounding so loudly it drowned out half the noise around me.This wasn’t how tonight was supposed to go.Tonight was supposed to be Knox’s coronation.A celebration.Not… this.Bastian stood a few feet away from the platform, completely relaxed despite the chaos he had just caused. The dead guard still lay near the entrance, his blood slowly spreading across the polished marble.And Bastian looked like he was enjoying every second of it.He rolled his shoulders slightly, like he was preparing for a casual sparring match instead of challenging an Alpha King.Across from him, Knox steppe

Knox's pov….The morning air was cold enough to bite.I welcomed it.Anything that helped clear the noise in my head was welcome.The training grounds were empty when I arrived, the pale dawn light barely creeping over the mountains surrounding the territory. Perfect.I rolled my shoulders once, loosening the stiffness in my muscles.Last night had been chaos.Bastain was good at causing problems and it reflected badly.Then my mother’s stunt with Kreda.And Mila…My jaw tightened slightly.The way she had stepped forward and claimed the title in front of everyone.I am the Luna.I could still hear her voice.A faint smirk tugged at my mouth despite myself.She had guts.“Thinking about your wife already?”I didn’t even turn around.“Shut up, Caleb.”Boots crunched over the dirt behind me.Caleb stepped into the training ring, stretching his arms over his head. His blond hair was still damp, probably from rushing out of bed when Conrad dragged him here.Conrad followed behind him, r

Mila's pov…Kreda was draining and annoying, I almost punched her in the face.I reached the palace gates and pushed it open everywhere was dark already except for the torches of fires lining the place. Guards stood at their usual posts, but none of them stopped me as I walked inside.Some nodded respectfully.Others watched me with curiosity.I still wasn’t used to it.Being watched and noticed.Being called Luna, these same guards used to mock me and now they bowed to me.Ironic.My heels echoed softly against the polished palace floor as I stepped into the main hall. The place felt quieter than usual, though I could hear distant voices somewhere deeper inside.For a moment, I thought I might be able to slip back to my room unnoticed.I should have known better.“Mila.”My body froze instantly.I slowly turned.Knox stood near the staircase.His arms were crossed over his chest, his dark hair slightly damp as if he had just finished training. The thin black shirt he wore clung t
