All Chapters of Sold to My Ex-Husband's Alpha Father: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

“Tell me my dear, what do you know about the target, Selene?” The don spoke to me after his very hearty meal. “My lord,” Vespera cut in. “Stressing the young lady won't be so favourable, she's clearly tired and we have to be on our way.” She smacked my arms for me to say something, I only forced a smile. I hated her guts, hated the fact that I had to serve someone beneath me. For all I know, Vespera and the don are beneath me and should do whatever they can to please me. I haven't been a servant to anyone in my life and I will not start now. The don stared at Vespera for a while, “do you have any information on the target then?” “Uhh….. well, she… she's married to the king.” Vespera stuttered, “she was once married to Lara’s husband. Is he your husband or…..?” “I'd like to speak to the young lady alone, she seems to know more about the queen. The blueprint can come later, besides, your interruptions might destabilize her.” He turned to me, “my lady, I'm sure you'd like some fresh

My father had a disgusting way of being compassionate, how could he banish me but still provided a house and food for me close to the northern camp. I had stayed for just a day but the noise was unbearable, plus I couldn't go beyond my confinement or else I'm dead. My house was built in between the lion's den, the camp on the right and then a dense forest on the other side. There had been some movements around the forest but I was too cautious to venture inside, they could either be humans or wild creatures and I was not ready to risk myself discovering anything new. The day was long and dreary, I had to spend all day watching the workers and soldiers. Some hours had a few bickerings and fights I had already grown to love, wish and hope it would happen all through my stay here. Other than that, I'd probably die of boredom or think of how cruel has been to me. I had spent a day and half looking for a breakthrough, I stared at the camps for too long that my eyes became blurry. I wipe

The day I had always anticipated since the appearance of Selene was finally here, I could taste victory at my fingertips. I wore a dinner gown with my signature color; peach, it had a slit that ran from my ankle to my thigh. I twirled in front of the mirror with a very bright laughter, it has been a long while I even smiled. Finally I would avenge myself, restore Dorian’s throne and inheritance before any of these dogs do something different. My fur wrap danced along as I moved my body in admiration. Good thing we left the syndicate’s base or else I’d never get the beauty sleep I needed for this mission. We are to move immediately towards the fortress once Oberon makes the call. Vespera walked in without knocking and scrutinized me like I was a criminal, I rolled my eyes and went on putting on the make up. I didn't even acknowledge her presence.“Lara darling, don’t you think you’re making another terrible mistake by this outrageous outfit you’re putting on? For goodness sake, we’r

The heavy oak doors of the throne room shivered, and then it splintered inward as I threw my weight against them in fury. I staggered inside, my chest was heaving and I could see and smell that my forearms and torso was painted with the blood of the rouges I had torn through the upper halls. At the far end of the room, standing casually before the obsidian throne was Oberon. “You should thank your stars you did not lay a finger on that throne.” I said as I walked closer. He reeked of dirt and bog water, a smell that indicated that he was a rogue through and through. Oberon smiled a cruel, jagged expression that didn’t reach his cold eyes. He held a heavy broadsword loose at his side, the tip tracing a lazy line on the marble floor. Around him, the bodies of the royal guards lay scattered. Flashbacks ran through my head in a swift procession, this had happened twenty years ago, I would not let it repeat itself again. I clenched my fists and bore my eyes coldly into his. “Ah shucks!

The thud of the door shutting everyone out was the best description of how my heart had shut out the entire world, I could not bear to even go close to Selene’s chambers or else the grief would destroy my already bleeding heart. Each minute of silence crashed down like the entire fortress was pressing on me; it was like a physical weight squeezing the air from my lungs.I stared at my hands; bloodstained and trembling. I was too weak to take off my soiled tunic that was still draped on me; I simply walked to the edge of my bed that looked more massive and never ending than before. Selene had not spent many nights in my chambers but her presence was so infectious. The empty pillow, the sheets and her faint sweet scent felt like it was slipping away with each passing moment. Every item now reminded me of my cold, hollow life before Selene’s precious light; I had never imagined that she would just disappear into thin air without any valid or probable reason. I had feared her death like
