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 Thirty-nine
Ariana's eyes were fixed on the lifeless body of Dora lying on the forest floor, her heart heavy with grief. She couldn't believe that her friend had been taken from her so brutally. The image of Dora's bloody, mangled body was seared into her mind, and she couldn't shake off the feeling of helplessness that had settled in her stomach.
How could this happen? Who did this to her? She wanted to scream, to cry, to run away. But she was frozen in place, unable to move or speak. She heard footsteps behind her and turned around. She saw Gabriel, the alpha and one of the pack members, approaching her. He had a concerned look on his face, and he reached out his hand to touch her shoulder.
"Ariana, are you okay?" Gabriel's voice broke through her trance, startling her, and she turned to face him. He looked concerned, his eyes filled with sympathy.
