last update Last Updated: 2025-04-07 23:58:42

“Lewis, I think thou wert hasty in casting off our wedding. What if Sebastian turneth his heart? I cannot lose him, thou knowest this well.”

Crystal held tight to her brother, whom she had sought in his lone hut, far from others.

He had not looked for his sister’s coming, truth be told, he wished to see none. His thoughts wandered oft to Ara.

Since the happening, she was like mist—seen no more.

“Do you hear me, brother?”

“Hmm?”

Crystal scowled, seeing his mind was elsewhere.

Lewis sighed and drew near.

“Forgive me. Yet I deem it wise that thou and he come to know one another. Then, his heart will turn kind to you.”

Crystal let out a breath, not taken by his words. She sat upon the wooden bed, arms folded.

“He doth not feel as I do. Perhaps he seeth me as a sister still. I know not what path to take, brother. When he asked for my hand, I was full of joy. But seeing him now, the look in his eyes… I fear I dream a dream he shareth not.”

Lewis sat beside her.

“Speak not such. You are the

  • SOLD TO THE BARBARIAN ALPHA   Chapter 1: The coldest night

    NOTICE: Sexual content(mild), violence, Ara’s POV Ara wake up, Ara wake up!! Ahhhh!! I woke up from my dream, a nice dream turned into a nightmare. My body felt heavy and my head ached like hell. The sound of chains send shivers through my spin. A chain? I questioned myself. I tried to move my hand but I couldn’t. It was stuck to something. I tried pulling myself but…. I realized my hand had been chained to a rock. No, where I am? What is this? My hands were tired with a rope. An attempt to free myself with my mouth failed as my neck was pulled by something heavy. Khoff!! My neck hurts. My whole body hurts. Where the hell am I? A drop of blood fell on my thigh. Blood! I am scared. This place was unknown to me. I scanned the place. It seemed I was in a hut. Suddenly my eyes locked with a symbol on the walls of the hut. A red lion head in a cycle. No this can’t be, i have been captured. But how? I don’t remember a thing. The last thing I r

  • SOLD TO THE BARBARIAN ALPHA   Chapter 2: The Auction

    Notice: extreme violence and sexual content(abuse). Read with caution. Ara’s POV The sunset lighted the room, waking me up from my dry sleep. My body ached from the torture I went through last night. The sheet that was handed over to me felt warm. I didn’t want to wake up but a sudden footsteps made my body tremble. I shut my eyes. Pretending to be asleep. The footsteps got closer and closer. “Hey up red-haired beta!” he yelled. I woke up abruptly with the sheet still covering me up. Short and curly-haired man, who could be mistaken for a girl at any moment. I wondered how such a pretty man found himself here. “Stop looking at me with those pitiful eyes. You should be more concerned about yourself,” his voice soft and yet unfriendly. “Huh!” “Get dressed and join the others” he threw some clothes on me. “Others?” I muttered to myself. “Wait, please” I pleaded. He paused and turned. “What do you want?” “I-I just want to know where I am, and your name?”

  • SOLD TO THE BARBARIAN ALPHA   Chapter 3: Red And White

    Ara’s POV I was no longer scared of what might happen to me. I was disgusted by their acts. I wanted to pull their eyes out and pierce their hearts with my sword. Unfortunately, I was no longer the leader I once was. I had no power and a pack. I was simply a no-name slave. And yet I still wanted to leave a mark. “You have gone too far. This really what Apex hunt is about!” I yelled, drawing everyone’s attention. “You monsters don’t know anything about hunting. Hunters don’t just hunt anything that crosses their path. They wait and explore their surroundings while being careful. They give their all to every catch and every battle won. You are making a mockery of their legacy and disguising it as an Apex Hunt. Don’t make me laugh! “ I voiced out. My voice was firm and confident. I deemed it necessary to remind them of what the true Apex Hunt meant. My father used to tell me stories of the past. A take about strong packs protecting the small and weak packs. Thi

  • SOLD TO THE BARBARIAN ALPHA   My Owner

    Ara’s POV My body felt lighter. It seemed nice and warm. I didn't want to wake up from this dream. I believe I was back in the old days when my father was alive. He was super dormant Alpha. He protected mother and the pack. Welcomed anyone into his pack. Unfortunately, that became his biggest mistake. He was betrayed by one member he trusted the most. I defeated him a few years later. I gave him a befitting death. Being stabbed behind his back, literally. Waking up was like a nightmare to me. My eyes moved on their own but my body felt too weak and light to make any movement. “You are awake?” I suddenly heard a soothing voice. A voice command, obsessive and confident. Who might that person be? I wondered. “If you are wondering who I am. Then open your eyes” he spoke again. It was a man’s voice. I opened my eyes slowly. I opened my left eye to see who it was. “Huh! It's you” I stood up abruptly. “B-but how?” I spoke out loud. He chuckled. “You are a w

  • SOLD TO THE BARBARIAN ALPHA   Chapter 5: A Passionate Night..

    Sebastian POVI could feel her body trembling as I touched her softly. Her body is soft like silk—Radiate and tempting. I could devour all night and it wouldn't be enough for me. I spread her legs to embrace me further. She was already gone. Her face turned into a red tomato. Sweaty from just a kiss. Was I releasing too many pheromones? She was indeed an omega. My omega, mate, and Luna. Of course, I couldn't tell her that. I pulled away after the kiss. She was under me. Breathing so heavily. Her red hair shone and covered half of her face. I gently caressed her face and leveled her hair behind her ear. “How the hell do I calm down if you look like this red” I softly said to her. “I -I can't take it anymore” she whispered like a plea asking me to take her. I grinned. I moved my hand towards her neck. Leaned over and kissed her neck softly. Her body trembled with every touch, I continued to her ear, used my tongue, and licked her ear loop. I traced down to her che

    Ara's POVThe noises stirred me from sleep. Faint chanting reached my ears, mingling with the acrid stench of booze that filled my nostrils.I sniffed and opened my eyes slowly, careful not to wake the beast lying beside me. But as my vision cleared, I realized—he wasn’t there.I wondered where he could be. The thought lingered as I tried to get up, but my body protested—sore and aching from last night.A blush crept across my cheeks at the memory. It was unlike anything I had ever experienced before. He had been rough, yet surprisingly tender. Sweetness intertwined with ferocity as he caressed me through the night, leaving marks on my skin—so many marks.“So irritating,” I muttered under my breath, tracing a finger along one of the faint bruises. It wasn’t entirely surprising, though.Alphas were known for this—for marking what they claimed as theirs. Each mark he left was a declaration of ownership, a silent proclamation to the world that I belonged to him. My heart began to race wil

    Sebastian's POVShe was surprisingly cute—still confident and hardheaded, just as she had always been. I stepped out of the room to give her the privacy she so adamantly demanded.“Alpha Sebastian, the council is waiting for you,” my right-hand man, Gargath, informed me as soon as I exited.“Take it easy, Garth. I know the council is waiting for me. You’ve mentioned it twice since we left the court. Remember?”“Ai, I’m sure I didn’t,” he chuckled. “Did you have fun last night, Seb?”He was the only one in the entire kingdom who dared to call me that. Gargath and I had grown up together, long before our secondary genders had emerged. Though both alphas, our ranks set us apart. He was a dormant alpha, while I was the pack leader. To everyone else, I was a symbol of power and a potential threat. To Gargath, I remained the friend he’d always known, and that bond had kept us inseparable.We walked side by side to the council room. My people, my warriors, and my pack were already seated. As

    House of BragoSeated at a round table were the Alphas summoned by Brago. His anger and humiliation from Sebastian's actions still festered, and his obsession with the red-haired girl—whom he believed had been stolen from him—only fueled his rage further.He was relentless."Brago, why have you summoned us here on such short notice?" Raul, the Alpha leader of the Snow Moon Wolf Pack, demanded, his annoyance evident in his raised voice."Raul, do not make a fuss. I’m sure Brago has a good reason for calling us here. Right, Brago?" Lucrah, the leader of the Oracle Night Pack, interjected with a sly, tinted smile.Brago sighed heavily and took his seat at the head of the table."Apologies for the unannounced meeting, but I couldn’t wait any longer. The thought of that man ruling over us sends chills down my spine. He needs to be stopped—by any means necessary. And in case you’re wondering who I’m talking about, it’s none other than Sebastian Knight," Brago declared, his voice laced with b

    My eyes grew wide when I heard those words from him.Was he still playing tricks on me? I pulled away.“What kind of trick is this!”“You seem shocked. Calm yourself. I would not play a joke on you. I speak with honesty. Are you ready for it?”I chuckled. “I am nothing to you, aye. What is this? I know you would never leave that princess for me.”“You do not know until you try.”“Oh, please. I would not waste my time.”He raised his brow. “I never knew you had such low faith in yourself.”“Low faith? Do you think I have such a gift as faith? You took that from me.”“And I give you a new hope.”“Tsk. Stop. The one who could help me, you tried to kill him last night.”“Last night?”“My savior.”“Ah, you mean a day ago.”“A day ago.”“Aye, you have slept for a day. Lucky for you, you have not been locked away. Vaxar seems to be searching for you. She thinks you are lazy.”“And whose fault is that?”“Are you blaming me?”I swallowed hard.

    Sebastian, full of wrath and fury, stepped forth.Ara flinched, fear clawing at her heart. What would he do to her?"How dare you try to flee from me!"She took a step back.But ere she could move further, Lewis strode forth, standing before her like a shield.Sebastian halted, his gaze dark and piercing. "And who are you, to stand between me and mine servant?"Lewis stood firm. "One who deems it right to protect those who need it."A low chuckle left Sebastian’s lips. "You dare steal what is mine and yet have the gall to speak back?""Aye, and I have naught to fear."Sebastian’s glare darkened. His fists curled like a beast ready to strike.Ara, fearing for her saviour, stepped in. "Forgive me," she said, her voice unsteady. "I should not have acted out of turn at the feast. I shall return.""Huh?" Sebastian’s brows furrowed. "Lift thine head and look at me."Ara trembled but obeyed, lifting her gaze to meet his. Yet, in the blink of an eye, Lewis seized her arm and pulled her to him

    Sebastian’s POVMy mind has been restless, torn over this marriage. I know why I must do this, and I do not regret my choice. Yet, the thought of being bound to Crystal was unsettling.She was as beautiful as they say, aye, but there is no bond between us. No fire. No thread that ties our souls together. We share nothing.And still, I do not understand why she longed for me. We met when we were younger, just as Ara and I did. But unlike Ara, she met me when I was already a man, no longer a boy. She was always smiling at me, always watching.Her brother, however, bore hatred for me. He despised that women favored me over him. If only they knew I was marked. None would even dare to set their eyes upon me.I let my thoughts run wild. What else could I do? Crystal sat so close, giving me no room to breathe.She was an Omega, her scent strong. She releases her pheromones on purpose, thinking to ensnare me, to make me desire her. She was mistaken.Only one scent calls to me.Ara.Her fragra

    "Are you well, young lady?" A young man asked, voice gentle, eyes wide at Ara’s beauty.His words halted in his throat. Never had he seen such a beautiful woman.Aside from his dear sister, no woman held beauty in his eyes. But now, that belief was broken.Excitement surged in him, and he smiled, still holding Ara.But he was not the only one struck. Ara, too, stared—not for his looks, but for the fact that he still held her though she stood well."You may let go," she spoke, soft and smiling."Aye, forgive me, I-I…" he stammered, words failing him.Then his eyes roamed over Ara, taking in her form. She was beautiful beyond words.And her hair—red as fire—made his heart race."Is that your true hair?""Huh?""Forgive me, I should not ask," he muttered, hand to the back of his head in shame.Ara laughed, light and soft. "No need to beg pardon. You are not the first, nor the last, to wonder. And aye, it is mine.""Aye, it is beautiful.""Huh?" Ara blinked at his boldness.She saw how he

    Brago’s Hall… "Aye! I canna believe he yet lives after all we did to bring him down! That fool always rises again!" Kalis slammed his hand upon the table. The noise startled Brago, who sat beside him. "Take it easy, Kalis. Who knew he had a brother in the Elite Alpha? That caught me by surprise," Brago spoke calmly. Kalis furrowed his brow. "I canna believe he hid this from us. I was shocked. Now we know why he has always been bold. He had strength behind him." Brago scoffed. Kalis turned to him. "Did I say aught funny?" "Kalis, that is not why he is so bold. He is stronger than both of us together. And he has the blessing of the Moon Goddess. That is why he carries himself so," Brago replied. "Are you trying to vex me, or what?" "Of course not, Kalis. But now is not the time for sorrow. Yes, we failed, but we gained something in the end. We now know how much that red-haired woman means to him." "True, but I need to know why. Why is she so dear to him?" "Is it not clear? Sh

    “Up, curse-bringer!" A fist struck Ara’s cheek. Her throat burned—days without water. The maid, the face twisted with hate, loomed over her. "I know you hear me!" the maid barked. "On your feet, now!" Ara’s limbs shook. She forced herself upright, fearing another blow. The room was strange She stood up and observed her surroundings This wasn't the place she used to stay. It was dirty and smelled horrible. "W-where…?" she rasped. The maid sneered. "Don't bother trying to figure out where you are. this now your room. So behave.Your time as a pampered whore is done. This is your hole now. Work, or starve." "Work?" Ara’s mind spun. Memories flickered. The last thing she remembered was, a female Alpha dragging her through the street. The maid spat. "Ai, Goddess of the moon, why must I suffer your stench?" She sighed and turned to leave. But Ara stoped her and asked if she could get any water. The maid refused to her, asking her to work for it. "Water… please," Ara begged. "E

    Sebastian's POV It had been two days since I last saw Ara. The last I had heard of her, they had taken her to the servants' quarters. Rebuilding the village seemed like an endless task, with every man and woman pushing themselves beyond their limits. Nia, my little shield-maiden, had lost all the fire in her eyes. Watching her mother and unborn sibling fall by my brother’s hand had crushed her spirit. I couldn't bring myself to face her anymore. The question that gnawed at me, the one about why I had kept Varg as my brother hidden from the people, was simple. I didn’t want them to fear me. I needed them to respect me, to believe in me as their Jarl. Leading a pack of wolves and being the head of the village was no easy burden. We had once occupied a third of the kingdom's land, but now... we had lost it all. Our enemies knew what they wanted and took everything from us. I cursed myself for falling into their trap. Brago and Kalis... they would pay for what they had done. S

    Ara''s POVI had no idea what was happening, but I couldn't stand their pheromones. I felt scared and vulnerable—emotions I despised. Yet for a fleeting moment, I was relieved because he was here.But that relief turned into a nightmare when I heard him clearly approve of the alpha strangling me."Do it. You can kill her. The only reason I keep her by my side is because of her body—nothing more, brother."My eyes widened as the realization hit me: I was truly alone. If my father were alive, would I be in this predicament?The tears I had desperately tried to hold back came streaming down, falling onto the hand that gripped my throat tightly."Do you mean it, brother? If you lie to me, I will come back and kill her in front of you. That is a promise," Varg said, his voice unwavering."You don’t have to worry. She will die by my hand. You have taken enough from me. They were innocent, so..." Sebastian paused.Suddenly, the man let go of me, throwing me harshly to the ground."Their deat
