All Chapters of Sold To The Scarred King: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Cassian walked into the mansion exhausted. His meeting had run long. Not only were his employees determined to frustrate him, but he still hadn't gotten a lead on what his mother was planning. He thought giving Elara space would help him protect her, but he was wrong. He had been so adamant about not accepting how he felt that he made her suffer for weeks. He had still not fully forgiven himself for that.He would spend every day making things up to her.Rose greeted him at the door."Welcome, sir.""Where is Elara?""She stepped out to give her friend something. I think she should be back soon."He glanced at his watch. It was already running late. Why didn't she ask her to come in and get it?"Alright. I'm going to freshen up. Hopefully she is back by the time I come down."Rose nodded and walked off.Cassian didn't spend long in the bathroom. As much as his muscles ached for relaxation, he still wanted to see Elara.Her smile always made everything better.As he made his way downst

The mansion stood silently under the hot afternoon sun. It was unusually quiet.By now, if Elara were around, she would be lounging by the pool or in the garden reading a book with tinted cheeks.Even the maids worked silently.After the first few days of Elara's absence, Cassian brought a full team of IT specialists to the manor, and for the next few days it was nothing but computers, screens, and silence.It turned out to be a futile attempt when she still wasn't found. It was almost like she never existed in the first place.Cassian had barely slept. He was feeling her absence more than he cared to admit. Tony was starting to get really worried about him. He was hardly eating, and he snapped at every little thing. Even the maids were scared to go near him now.It was as if the famous scarred king had returned, and no one could be spared from his wrath."S... Sir?" A timid-looking maid, Noelle, stammered as she opened Cassian's study door.Cassian's head was resting on his desk."S.

After the terrifying conversation I had with Noah, I couldn't help but begin to panic. He promised me he would find me a new place outside the state. I just had to lie low for the weekend.I was very happy to be leaving the shabby motel, and I had grown to accept my new look."Hi." I said to the lady standing by the wooden desk."All ready to leave, I see.""Yeah."She signed a slip, then I handed her cash.Noah walked in when I was rounding up."Hey. You done? You should have allowed me to pay.""I'm sure you'll make it up some way." I joked.He nodded and helped me with my bags.I was really doing this. Leaving for good.In the car, I couldn't help but stare out the window at the scenery. Noah had promised he would take me to a quiet little town where no one would think to look for me. He had already sorted out my accommodation and everything else."Here it is. Your new home." Noah said as we parked in front of it after three hours of driving.It was a guest house, but it was a hell

I still stood in place, frozen, staring at the message on my screen. My heart sank. I quickly typed a response.'What? Why?'I watched the message deliver.It didn't take long for a response to arrive.'Cassian is looking at me, thinking I might still be in contact with you. He's heavily monitoring my every move, so I can't contact or see you for a while. Don't contact me unless it's an emergency.'I swallowed. That was fair.I had been thinking about the possibility myself. The longer I stayed away, the more desperate Cassian would become.And if he discovered Noah had helped me...I didn't even want to imagine what would happen. I was putting Noah in danger. I didn't bother with a response. It was only going to do more harm than good.I stared at the conversation for a few seconds before deleting the entire thread. It hurt. Noah was the only person I had been able to rely on since I left. Now I was completely alone. I placed the phone beside me and sank deeper into the bed.I had

Cassian had never hated silence more.The mansion had always been quiet.He had designed it that way. He liked peace. He liked order. He liked knowing exactly what was happening around him.But now the silence felt different. It felt empty.Because Elara wasn't here.He stood in the middle of his study, staring at the screens in front of him."Anything?"Tony stood behind him and shook his head. "Nothing, sir."Cassian's jaw tightened. "Check again.""We've already checked every location.""Then check them again."Tony hesitated before nodding. "Yes, sir."He knew his friend was spiraling, but he had no idea how to help him. He was worried for Cassian and Elara."How about her friend Noah? He had been behaving suspiciously lately.""It was a dead end, sir. It was just a secret relationship with some woman. He has nothing to do with Elara's whereabouts, or he's really good at hiding, but I do believe if he were in contact with her, we would have gotten something by now."Cassian turned
