The Alpha King I Bought

"$500 million?"The man who had just bid $100 million whipped around to glare at me. He was Lucas Werner, second-in-command of the Shadowfang kingdom.The kingdom had planned for their Alpha King, Lucian Frost, to pretend to be captured. They wanted to infiltrate the auction house to investigate the theft of their kingdom's sacred relic.They were about to recover the relic and wrap things up. Lucas only needed to pose as a wealthy businessman and bid their agreed ceiling of $100 million to buy Lucian back.They probably wondered where the hell I came from with $500 million to throw around.Lucas looked calm on the surface, but inside, he was losing his mind. He frantically reached out through the mind-link. "Alpha King! We have a problem! Some crazy woman just bid $500 million! We don't have enough money to out-bet her!"Alpha King! What do we do? Should we take you by force, or will you use your Alpha authority to scare her off?"Alpha King! Can you hear me?"However, Lucian

Lucian had broken free from the handcuffs at some point, or perhaps those things had always been useless on him.He braced himself above me, his dark gold eyes so deep they were like whirlpools ready to suck my soul in."You're quite bold, Vivian." He suddenly spoke, his voice low and husky.That large hand that had just been bound was now shamelessly gripping my waist, his calloused fingertips rubbing lightly through the fabric.This reversal left me dazed. My heart was racing wildly, but I refused to back down. I forced myself to stay calm. "Know your place, Lucian. I'm the one who paid for you... Mmph!""Is that so?" He chuckled softly, his knee forcefully pushing between my legs. His scorching body heat seared through the thin fabric of my clothes, making me shiver."Weren't you the one who threw yourself into my arms just now, Master? But..." His tone shifted as his gaze swept lazily over my hands pinned beneath his weight before settling on my lips."Since you're so enthus

"Wait, no! I'm on my period!"Lucian's movements stopped abruptly. He buried his head in the side of my neck, his nose twitching. Sure enough, he smelled blood.This was a signal that my body was vulnerable."Damn it." He cursed under his breath and quickly rolled off the bed, forcibly suppressing the clamoring desire in his body.The overwhelming aggressive presence from moments ago instantly dissipated as cold air rushed in.Not quite used to the sudden change, I called out to him. "Lucian...""Don't move." He raised his hand to stop me. "I'll get some aspirin."...Five minutes later, the bedroom lights were adjusted to the softest warm glow. The vicious wolf who had just been about to forcibly mark me was now sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a cup of hot tea."Drink this." His tone was stiff, but his gaze was worriedly fixed on my lower abdomen. "Does it hurt?"I shook my head, taking small sips as mixed feelings churned inside me.After I finished drinking, he pu

I froze. "What?""Vivian." He grabbed my freshly washed hand and, with a hint of punishment, pressed it firmly against the area below his taut abdomen.The beast lurking there instantly burned my fingertips, making my fingers recoil."You held it all night long, yet you still don't have a sense of its size?" He ground out three words through clenched teeth by my ear, annoyed at being humiliated."Are you genuinely clueless, or are you deliberately trying to strangle me? Hmm?"…To prove the difference between an original and a knockoff, and to make me remember forever exactly how big he was, the bedroom door was locked once again.After an absurd afternoon, as dusk fell outside the window, I lay boneless on the bed, completely spent. My hands and inner thighs had lost all sensation.Lucian held me from behind, playing with my hair in satisfaction as his heat finally subsided somewhat."Lucian..." My voice was hoarse. As I curled up in his arms, I suddenly felt a pang of jealou

"Breaking News: Early this morning, 300,000 troops from the northern Shadowfang kingdom suddenly crossed the border and amassed in our city on a massive scale!"The governor and mayor have rushed over to negotiate! The city's entire airspace has now been taken over by the kingdom's air force!"According to inside sources, this military action is not an invasion but rather a personal trip by the Alpha King, who has never made a public appearance. Rumor has it he has a fated mate lost in the human world, and he traveled thousands of miles just to find her…"The romantic fairy tale on the news made my current reality feel especially ironic.My ‘fated mate’ ran faster than anyone else when I needed him most."Liar..."I huddled in the corner of the closet, clutching one of Lucian's black shirts that he had not taken with him.Initially, I had wanted to rush in here to cut up and burn all these clothes. However, the moment I picked up the shirt, the faint lingering scent of cold ceda
