The Barter Novel Sierra and Xavier

“Who.

.

who are you?”

I open my eyes to see that lust in his eyes from earlier replaced- by something else.

Fear?

Dread?

But why.

“I asked who are you, dammit!”

He roars at me, and my mouth opens and closes.

Unable to concoct a sentence.

“I…I am…I…”

“Aren’t you one of the whores of the King? He left you here, right? But then this pendant.

.

”

He stares at the XK pendent Xavier gave me, and I gulp to speak.

“I.

.

am his wife-”

“Fuc*!”

He staggers back from me like he has seen a ghost.

Toppling over the bed, he hurries to get up.

And next, I know, he sprints from there like death was chasing him.

The door is slammed shut, and I Breathe heavily to clear the tears streaming down my eyes.

My body was still feeling strange the fire that lit in my core no way near extinguishing If anything.

I was burning.

Eros potion.

What.

what does it do exactly?

Scrambling up, pressing my palms on the floor, I try to get up.

only to stagger on my foot.

My vision was hazy.

It felt like the world was moving on its axis, and I was standing in the fire of hell.

Hot too hot.

My nails dig into my neck, scratching the place where he kissed me.

I felt disgusted.

Yet strange…like I wanted someone to touch me.

Minutes pass.

I wait for the feeling to wash away.

But it didn’t.

I was heaving, sweating and breathless without even doing.

anything.

Strange wetness pools between my thighs, and every inch of my skin gets alive.

The very floor, my clothes touching my skin, was torture.

Tears continue to stream in my eyes.

“Stop…it someone…please…”

Chapter 9

I begged.

I could do anything to escape this feeling.

Anything.

My hands tug on my clothes; removing my shirt, I throw it aside.

to get a little respite.

The aching between my thighs only intensifies, tugging on my joggers.

I push them down.

Leaving me only in my underwear.

Fuc*! What am I doing?

What if someone were to come in and see me like this?

No.

Holding the wall, I walk towards the door.

Latching it closed, I took a deep breath, but it was short–lived.

“Open the door, Luna!”

One of the guards bangs on the door, and I panic.

What…what if someone else tries to force themselves on me? No.

Staggering back, I look around for escape.

And that’s when my eyes stop at a clerestory window at the top of the wall.

It can be challenging.

But I could fit in.

Looking around for furniture to get onto, I ignore the banging outside to push the tables and chairs under it.

“Open, or we will be forced to call the Alpha!”

Dread settles inside me.

Not him.

He can’t come here.

I need to hurry.

I got on top of a table and then on top of a chair I placed above.

I open the window to pull myself up.

My feet dangle in the air, and my upper frame slides through it.

Its narrow width marred my shoulders and waist with cuts and bruises, but I didn’t care.

Toppling over, I land into a mesh of bushes and feel a thousand pricks of needles root into my body.

Dammit!

It hurts.

Ignoring the pain, I sprinted from there into the vast jungle.

I needed to figure out where I was going.

All I knew then was to run till my feet supported me.

To push out the strange feeling inside me by replacing it with adrenaline.

And to escape Xavier’s men before they catch and force me, just like that man did.

I don’t know how long I ran or where I was.

All I knew was that my body was giving up.

And then, right when my legs were ready to give up.

I hear distant howls and thudding footsteps approaching me in the forest, and my heart stops.

No.

Don’t… Don’t tell me I have crossed Xavier’s border.

Or rather, I have entered his adjoining territory.

Fuc*!

I turned around to run back, but it was too late.

I see five pairs of eyes looking at me with lust shining bright in their eyes.

“Damn, beta.

Look what we found today?”

“A rogue she–wolf all alone.

Struggling with her heat.

”

They chuckled, and my legs suddenly felt weak.

Heat? So does this mean that the eros potion functions similarly to women in heat?

It explains those feelings.

And the way my body was reacting.

“No…I was drugged.

Please help me.

I….

”

The man who was the Alpha smirks.

“Drugged.

Well, isn’t it better? She will love it and beg for more.

He steps closer, and I crawl back.

His eyes take on my naked

state.

“I am Alpha Xaviers mate….

stop!”

The man stills to look at his pack mates.

And then they all start laughing.

“Nice try, cagna.

But we all know poor Luna Beatrice died in the hands of that fuc*er David.

”

“I am David’s daughter.

I was offered to him as a barter.

I am Xavier’s wife! Trust me.

”

His smirk only widens.

ו

Well, then, I am sure Xavier will thank us for what we will do.

He must hate you with passion, right…”

“Your father tortured and brutally murdered that innocent girl.

Someone should settle the karma for her.

“No…”

Before I knew it, they surrounded me from all sides.

Trying to punch one of the men, a scream leaves my lips when he dodges it to wrap his arm around my neck.

Pressing my back on his chest.

He orders his men.

“Fucing tie her legs.

”

“No!”

I squirm and try to kick them but they only grab my ankle and the them together.

Their rough hands made me feel disgusted.

Yet that ache between my legs only worsened.

“Aghh let me go! Stop it!”

“Noooool”

The one holding me from behind presses his lips on my neck.

And I cry.

Tears sting my eyes.

He ties my hands behind me.

with a rope.

“Aren’t you a pretty little thing.

Umm.

You smell so good.

”

“Ugg no! Don’t touch mel”

I feel his hands sneaking up to rest on my chest.

And I go still.

My eyes widen

“Let’s see if your rack is as pretty as your face.

His fingers were midway when suddenly a loud bang was heard, and I screamed.

Something wet splashes on my face, and my heart leaps out of my chest.
