Sold As The Alpha King’s Breeder Chapter 364

Chapter 22 We Eloped!

*Ciana*

Darkness surrounded me as I sat there on the dingy dungeon floor-waiting.

Waiting for what, I wasn’t sure. My mouth was so dry, my tongue was practically stuck to the roof of my mouth. My stomach was so empty, it had given up rumbling long ago and now just consisted of a dull ache deep within me.

My dreams, when I managed to doze off, usually consisted of me standing next to a beautiful lake full of water that I couldn’ t get to, no matter how hard I tried, and a feast full of all kinds of my favorite foods that I simply couldn’t taste.

I wanted to tell Jake the truth. In fact, I had told him the truth.

But he couldn’t release me.

At this point, if I had been a spy for that Luther person, I probably would’ve confessed. But I had nothing to tell Jake or Theo or anyone other than the truth.

I had been hoping to find out more information about the state of things in my own pack, and that’s why I’d gone to look for that man who had kidnapped Brook, and nothing more….

Brook. The thought of her made me sad, not because I missed her so much, though it was true that I did, but because I felt so sorry for her. She had to be worried sick about me.

“Ciana!”

Why, even now, I was hallucinating that I could hear the sound of her voice. Goodness, how I missed her.

“Ciana? Are you in there? It’s so dark.”

As quickly as I could get up off of the floor, I rose, stumbling on unsteady legs as I went to the unguarded, but locked, bars that made up a cell door.

“Brook?” I questioned; reaching through to touch her hand. It felt so warm compared to my cold one. “Are you really here?”

She pulled me to the bars, hugging me tightly. “Oh, thank goodness you’re all right. I’ve been so worried about you!” Her tears landed on my cheek, and my tongue darted out to lick them up without me even thinking simply because it was moisture.

She let me go. “Here, I brought you some water.”
