Sold as the Alpha King’s Breeder Chapter 671

Chapter 18 : The Perfect View

*Mila*

I kept the box pinned to my chest as I raced away from the graveyard. Soren could talk to his henchman all he wanted but I wasn’t going to stick around, especially if what Payne said was true and there were other bounty hunters closing in, I had to get far away.

Just outside the cemetery, my knees started to ache. The pain spread up my hamstrings and into my hips. Every step sent shocks of pain through my legs. I had to slow down to ease the pain but it still crept through me.

My hips felt loose, like they’d collapse if I took too many more steps. My knees were dizzy and threatened to buckle.

I groaned and clenched my teeth. My lower back started to ache, too. I’d never get far like this.

Why couldn’t I just heal already? I’d overcome the worst of the poison and the pain but it just wouldn’t go away!

The hairs on the back of my neck prickled. Someone was tracking me. I could feel it in my bones. They were just on the edge of my senses and if there wasn’t this thick fog, they’d probably be on me already.

For a split second, I thought it was Soren or his henchman, Payne.

Of course, Soren wouldn’t just let me go…

No, it wasn’t Soren or his friend. Whoever was tracking me felt fouler and more sinister.

This part of the village was in bad shape. My legs shook and I stumbled forward. I reached for the nearest structure for support needing to rest. My fingers connected with a broken wall. Heavily, I leaned against the wall and breathed deeply.

“Don’t fall down, you i***t,” I muttered to myself.

My head hurt and my thoughts spun. The world around me tilted strangely and I thought I’d pass out.

How was I going to keep moving like this?

I couldn’t give up. Not here, not now. I’d survived the Trial of Black Fire, one of the only ones to ever do that. I’d escaped from a powerful alpha like Alpha Chandler. I’d walked through a brutal sandstorm in the hot desert.

Through it all, I survived.

Finding the box meant I was finally going to get some answers and I wasn’t going to fall down here and lose that chance.

I continued to catch my breath and will the pain away, thinking about where to go from here.

My biggest threat was the damn bounty hunters that Norwind had hired. They wouldn’t mess around. To them, I was a payday and it wasn’t just me they were after. They were all competing with each other to get to me first.

Only one of them would get paid for my capture.
