All Chapters of The Alpha’s Auctioned Mate: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Alana's POV. Ava spewed further as she rolled her eyes at me. "Yes, that's the best decision, baby. If you don't punish her now, she wouldn't know not to cause trouble another day. We've all had our share of issues, but not like in the midst of them, destroying things. Alana is nothing but a pest." I scoff in disgust. "No, don't you believe me at all? You should know that I would never want to destroy your things. It's so clear that this maid is lying against me." "How do you mean? Didn't all the evidence turn against you? Are you implying that my fiancee is lying against you as well?" He lashed out at me. I was agitated at this point. It was either he put words in my mouth or used my own words against me. Is that how much he believed that I did this?"I already made my decision. You shall be punished, Alana."My tone breaks in my throat. My wolf was in a rage, but we had to keep it down. We wouldn't want to fight our mate if we wanted him to see us for who we were to him; instead

Ava's POV.Alaric helped me to lie down on his bed, and I grunted again, making certain that I sounded as if it were real.I wasn't indeed in pain. It was a fake shout of pain but necessary at that situation. Even when I had plan everything and it was going just the way I wanted, Alaric just had to be smart and use his intellect to decipher Lucy's lies. "I can't get my temperature from you and listening to your pulse, you seem fine.""Maybe you just don't know the body like you think you do. I said I'm in pain, and instead of you getting me..."I muffled out a sound of pain, slamming my left hand on my mouth like I was trying to hold it in. "Instead of you getting me a doctor, you are listening to my pulse.""Right. I'm so stupid." Alaric said and hurried to leave the room. I exhaled a deep breath through my mouth and stood up from the bed, then jabbed my fist into the air out of frustration. Alana had to be the most infuriating person I have ever come across in my life, and even

Alana's POV.The breeze on the balcony was one of the best things this place has to offer. It was always soothing and pleasing to take a seat and read medical books up here. Speaking of medical books, the library that I was allowed to use, as there are many others but they were restricted for who knows what reasons, had to have the best medical books in the shadow pack.I was seated on a footstool, resting my arm on the cold rails of the metal walk guide, while my other hand was holding a health book about the lungs and, as a werewolf, major things that could hurt the lungs, either external or internal. Enjoyable was the rejuvenating afternoon until I dipped my hands into the plate of cookies and saw it was finished. I headed back to my room to get some more. Having packed it into the plate, I turned, and then I slammed myself into someone. The fear of already seeing the image from a vague distance scared me even before I slammed into its owner, and I squeaked as I lost my steps an

Alaric's POVI picked up the glass cup next to the cabinet that contained an apple cider drink and gulped it into my throat to ease the disgust of a meal.At the same time, Alana walked back into the room with fright in her body's composure. Swallowing the rest of the salt in my tongue with my eyes closed in irritation, I pointed my palm to it."What is this? Alana, what did you do?" Her face dashed from me to the plate and back on me then she shrugged, acting innocent. This was my fault. I had been the one who wanted to be nice, and in return, this was what I got. "Oh, it's clear now. You want revenge, and thus you waited for a time when I would slip, and then you could poison me." I stood up and threw the cup against the wall. The effect emitted a shattering sound, and as the pieces rattled on the ground with a crinkling sound, my eyes burned at Alana. "Just say the truth. You were waiting for me to come to you, and then you could fool me, is that it?" There was a frown settle

Alaric's POV. My jaw was twitching in ire at what Alana did. How dare she?I tried to stand up, and woah... "Ouch." I grabbed my stomach again, not directly wanting to touch my balls. Jeez, I can only imagine how blue my balls would be right now. As I thought of it, my brows raised. Where could she run to? Her room? My wolf chuckled a sinister laughter. Did she think she would find solace after what she's done to me? I tried to stand up upright and head over to her room. As soon as I got there, I wasn't calm at all. "Alana!" I called out her name, but she did not respond. I could hear the sound of her heaved breathing.But just as I called out her name, she went into a frozen lapse. Alana's breathing was calmed before, which made me assume she was sleeping, and from the aura I sensed in her room, she was low-spirited. When I knocked on the door, I heard her gasp, waking up in the aftermath of what she'd done. "Alana, open this door now!" Again, I called out, except this time
