All Chapters of Auctioned To The Rogue King : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

CHAPTER FORTY-ONEHAZEL Oh my God! I couldn't think! What in the world was happening!? My mind went blank, and everything suddenly fled from my head. Aurora smiled devilishly, watching me try to think, while Melissa had a stiff expression on her face, like she was waiting for the worst to happen. The men watched without sympathy. They were eager for me to be crushed, just so they would break Darius. That was the only thing they wanted. ‘Hazel! You shouldn't be thinking of this now!’ Isis screamed at me. I swallowed. My palms were sweaty, and my fingers shook like never before. I looked at the walls. “Oh my God, oh my, jeez!” I freaked, and Aurora laughed crazily, while the men smiled. “Uh, um… okay, I… I've heard this riddle somewhere, but…”‘Hazel! Take in a deep breath!’ Isis growled. ‘Stop breathing.’I did as she said, and stopped breathing. ‘Now, let it out slowly. Don't look at the walls. Just don't.’ She advised, and I let out my breath slowly, letting it mingle with the

CHAPTER FORTY-THREEMELISSA {THIRTY MINUTES AGO}I paced all around in my room, biting my thumb harshly. Guards had lined my door, and I was quite sure they had done the same for Hazel.They didn't want us going out again, but that wasn't my major concern. My hopes had been thoroughly, and mercilessly, dashed. I couldn't even help my shock, and displeasure. How did Hazel manage to survive? Liam had clearly emphasized how dangerous the beast he kept was. The creature was sick, and that resulted in it being more aggressive, so how had Hazel come out unscathed. Even during the riddle, it had hurt when she'd accidentally said the answer. “What's the next move, Mel?” You can't wait around for Darius to wake. It would be harder if Darius wakes. He would be around her almost all the time. “Screw you!” I pulled my sheets, and dragged them across my dresser. All my makeup products, skincare products, perfumes, and oils went crashing to the ground. “How did you do it, wretch?” I asked, ru

CHAPTER FORTY-FIVEHAZEL I couldn't sleep that night. I simply lay on my bed, turning from side to side. What the hell was Melissa babbling about? Why was she bent on confusing me? Why? What did she think she stood to gain? I didn't want to believe her, but the look on her face was so haunting. Darius went somewhere else apart from the business trip. That was sure. He was so down when he was about to leave, and that was the day we kissed. My fingers touched my lips. He left so abruptly too, without a goodbye. His phone has been unreachable, and back at Alpha Liam's mansion, Aurora had said, ‘If he returns!’ If Darius returns. Where did Darius go? What were they keeping from me? Ah, Xander. Melissa had mentioned him. She had initially come to me to see if I could persuade him to let us see Darius. I sat up again. See Darius? Was he somewhere near? Why did she say that?I fell back on my bed exhausted. ‘Sleep, Hazel. Tomorrow, we'll talk to Xander.’ Isis said softly. “You're righ

CHAPTER FORTY-SEVENDARIUS “You want to leave?” My opponent asked, looking up towards me. It felt exactly like looking into a mirror, and the thought alone was chilly. His eyes were just as dark as mine were, his nose just as chiseled, his jaw defined, his lips heart-shaped. It didn't make any sense. “Who are you? Some crazy shape shifter?” I asked, getting to my feet with a little difficulty. There was no denying that I was weak. “Shape shifter?” The other me asked in my voice, and that sent a chill through me. It was unnerving, really. He was me! That had never happened to me in all my life. My exact replica. “Who am I? Dear Darius, you know me more than anyone else does. I am you.”“What the hell are you spitting out, shape shifter?”“Your strengths, your weaknesses, your flaws and imperfections; I have them all. You are fighting yourself. We have the same skills, the same mind, the same thoughts, the same vibe, the same memories, the same feelings. Just like you, I have the in

CHAPTER FORTY-NINEHAZEL It meant that I was also his mate!And he was vulnerable to me.“What’s your full name? How do I identify you as different from him? You can't just be the complete thing. You share looks, the same mate, personality, surely something must mark you as different.” I said, and he glanced at Darius on the floor. I needed to hurry. Darius was not moving, but I had to get rid of him first. “Darius McCallister from the Land Of The Dead.”With that, I moved away from him.“I, Hazel Pratt, of the Blood Moon pack…” His eyes widened, as he knew what I was about to do, but he didn't move. He simply watched me with spite. I was truly his mate, seeing how he really didn't want to hurt me.I went on, “...mate to King Darius McCallister of the Blood Moon Pack, reject you, Darius McCallister, from the Land Of The Dead, as my mate. Let the land bear me witness.” With that, he suddenly staggered, putting a hand on his chest. Whatever bond we shared was being severed. And usi
