Sold To The Ruthless Alpha King
She is sold into slavery to the ruthless Alpha of the Crescent Moon Pack after her mate cheats on her with her sister and she is forced by her parents to give up her mate to her sister. Ariana's captive existence as a mere breeder under Alpha Ethan takes a turn when she discovers a forgotten journal. Unfolding its pages reveals a heartbreaking saga, a lost child, a murdered mate, and a curse. Its worn-out pages hint at a prophecy, and the mention of a unique birthmark signals an unspoken connection with its author and a link to the alpha’s curse. Now the question arises: will Ariana be the savior or the harbinger of doom?
Chapter Sixteen
Ariana woke up with a start, feeling a cold sweat on her forehead. She had a nightmare about the night before, when she witnessed the horrifying transformation of Ethan, he had howled in agony, as if he was being tortured by some invisible force.
She shuddered at the memory and decided to go see him, to check on him and to ask him some questions. She got dressed and left her room, heading towards his chamber. She hoped that he was feeling better, that he had recovered from his ordeal.
Ariana knocked on the door of Ethan's chamber, feeling nervous and anxious. She had not seen him since the night before, she had not slept well, haunted by the image of his beastly form and his agonized howls. She had not spoken to anyone, afraid of revealing his secret. She couldn't stop thinking about him, wondering how he was, what he felt, and what he wanted.
She heard his voice, "Come in" weak and hoarse, inviting her in.
