Knotting His Rejected Breeder Chapter 3: Sold as a Breeder to My Fated Mate

SONIA’S POV

"That’s easy," he replied without even turning around. "After you’re sold, and I hand you over to your owner, I’ll reject you then," he said, confusing even more. I waited until he had gone before I finally crumpled down in tears.

The next day ca, and I was taken to an open square. It surprised how many people had co for the auction. I couldn’t imagine that so many people were sick enough to want to buy another person, but I soon discovered I was not the only ’item’ up for sale.

Stolen properties, illegal potions, and even people’s wolves, extracted and trapped in so glass-like object, were up for sale.

"Wolf essence," the man guarding whispered when he saw staring in disbelief as the bids rose for the glass-like objects. "You can’t really extract a person’s wolf, but when you take the wolf essence, the wolf dies, and the person becos wolfless."

"What is the essence used for? Why is it extracted?" I found myself asking, surprised that he had even started talking to in the first place.

He shrugged. "It’s used to make very dangerous weapons."

"And how is the wolf essence extracted?" I asked again, sure that no one would willingly give up their wolf.

He laughed. "Trust , you don’t want to know. It’s the most singularly painful experience anyone can have."

For so reason, his explanation filled with fear and even more questions. Soone bid a huge sum, and the essence was given to the person. "Next," the man in charge bellowed, and I turned to look up at him.

"We have a woman, not too strong since she’s an oga, but she is very beautiful. She wouldn’t be suitable for a breeder since she’d only birth you oga children, but you can keep her around as a plaything. Oh! She’s also Alpha Fenris’s daughter, so if you want, you can use her to get to her father...."

He was still talking, but I could not hear anything else he said. My eyes glazed over, and it seed like everything was happening in slow motion. ’She’s also Alpha Fenris’s daughter....’ The auctioneer’s words rang in my ears. They would auction now. They would take up to that podium and sell off to the highest bidder. I wondered the kinds of n that would bid on , probably sleazy n who wanted to use as a pleasure toy until they had their fill of , and then they would discard .

I felt strong hands grab and push to the middle of the field. I was carried and placed on top of a small, rotating podium.

"Thirty coins," the bid had begun.

I closed my eyes and tried to calm myself. My father would find . He was Alpha Fenris, after all, the invincible, the powerful. He would not let his daughter get sold off at so illegal auction.

The bidding continued, with people reluctant to add coins to their initial bid. I noticed a particular man in the crowd was consistent in his bidding. He looked to be about twenty-sothing years old and of average height. He was the least threatening person in the crowd so far, and I suddenly wished that if the whole auctioning would go through, he would be the one to end up with .

Everyone in the crowd looked large, powerful, and scary. I could only imagine what they planned to do with .

"Forty-six coins," a large man with a greasy-looking beard said, licking his lips, and I closed my eyes in revulsion.

"Alright, let’s put an end to this," I heard the young man I was rooting for say. "A hundred and fifty coins, and that’s my last bid." He got up then, as though he was ready to walk off if soone placed a higher bid. The entire field remained silent.

"A hundred and fifty, going, a hundred and fifty going, gone." The man in charge of the auction said, and my eyes went imdiately to the man who had bought , but then the auctioneer’s next words sent a jolt of fear through .

"Sold to Jason, on behalf of Alpha Ramon."

The entire field beca deathly quiet. There was a tightness in my throat that made it impossible for to breathe. My eyes scanned the crowd again to light on the man I now knew was called Jason. He had not been here on his own; he was here on behalf of Alpha Ramon of the Bloodmoon pack, my father’s worst enemy, and the Alpha of the sa man who had kidnapped .

I suddenly realized I could not let them take to the Bloodmoon pack. I was going to escape, or die trying.

I jumped down from the podium, a bit clumsily since my hands and feet were bound, and I began jumping as fast as I could. I was moving into the crowd, hoping that once I mingled with the crowd, it would be difficult to find . Maybe, then I’d have enough ti to find a sharp object and free myself.

The man who had been standing in for Alpha Ramon made a beeline my way. Thinking fast, I snatched up a handful of coins from the auctioneer’s jar and threw them into the crowd. The people didn’t exactly start scrambling for it, but it caused enough of a ruckus to let slip into the crowd undetected.

I slipped a dagger from soone’s pocket and cut the binding on my feet first, then, walking more swiftly, I pushed further into the crowd, then bent and cut open the binding on my hands.

It took a while to cut it, and when I was done, I noticed two pairs of boots facing . I looked up at the owner and found myself looking into the eyes of Jason, the man that had bought on behalf of Alpha Ramon.

"Not very clever of you," he said angrily, hauling up to my feet. "You want a piece of advice from ? Don’t ever try this with Alpha Ramon. Yes, he is as ruthless as everyone says he is, and trust , he hates your father. If you give him the slightest reason to take out the anger he feels for your father on you, trust , he will, and his punishnt techniques are so cruel, they are guaranteed to break you."

I could only stare at him as he spoke. He had begun dragging through the crowd toward a carriage. I dug in my heels, refusing to let him push in, but he only hurt further trying to put in the carriage.

"You better let go now," I said, playing my last card. "If my father finds out you have , he’ll not only kill your Alpha, but he’ll also destroy you in the worst way."

Jason laughed. "What do you think was in your father’s ssage? He said he’s fond of you, that you’re a nice pet, and look a lot like your mother, but not important enough for him to risk his plans over. Alpha Fenris is not coming for you, so you’d do well to start thinking of ways you can please your new owner, Alpha Ramon."

I blinked back the tears that threatened to overflow, and I was silent as he finally helped into the carriage. He was lying, I told myself. My father had killed people in the past because of , he loved !

But deep down, I realized that it had not cost him much to kill those people. All it took was an order. To rescue would take a whole lot more.

We traveled together for miles until we finally arrived in Bloodmoon. So maids bathed and dressed in a long flowing gown. It was finally ti for to be brought to Alpha Ramon, my new owner.

I was brought into a very large council chamber that was occupied by only nine people – I counted. I didn’t know who any of them were, except the man who had kidnapped from my garden several days ago was there, sitting on a throne-like seat at the center of the council chambers.

I was not prepared for the jolt I felt on seeing him again, but before I could analyze my feelings properly, he was already speaking.

"I, Alpha Ramon of the Bloodmoon pack, reject you, Sonia, as my mate. You would stay on, however, in this pack as my breeder."

Nothing made sense anymore. The soldier was Alpha Ramon? Why then had he waited until I got to Bloodmoon to reject ? And why had he sold out in an auction, only to buy himself?
