Sold As The Alpha King’s Breeder Chapter 379


    Chapter 37: This is All Your Fault!


    I stared at Theo, and he stared at me, and then, suddenly, I saw a look of understanding on his face,


    and the next moment, his face started to turn a slight hint of pink and the tips of his ears were red.


    He sat up abruptly and grabbed a piece of clothing from the floor to cover himself below his waist and


    turned his face away from me.


    “Oh, no… ” I murmured, and then asked the man next to me


    tentatively, “Your Highness…?”


    “Yes?” He nodded, acknowledging how I addressed him. Obviously, just like me, he was his true self


    now.


    Oh. My. Heavens.


    What had we done?!


    He avoided eye contact with me, cleared his throat, and asked in a husky voice, “What’s going on?”


    My mouth opened and closed a few times, but I couldn’t


    make a sound.


    What was going on? I wanted to know too! But, most importantly, how could he act so calmly as if


    nothing had happened?!


    My hands covered my face and I was so… mortified, shocked, angry, confused, heartbroken and…


    embarrassed.


    “How could you do this to me?!” I condemned loudly.


    “Me?” he asked. “You were the one who wanted me!”


    “You nned this whole thing from the beginning!” I retorted, tugging on the nket to make sure it


    waspletely covering my naked form.


    “I know nothing about any of this,” he eximed, and I could tell by his face that he meant it. “And I


    warned you


    not to touch it.”


    “Ahhhh!” I couldn’t help but pull my hair.


    That was… that was my first time! How was I supposed to take this news? How was I supposed to


    ept everything that had just happened?!


    “Ciana,” he called.


    “Give me a minute!” I just wanted to cry.


    “Ciana!” He raised his voice, and this time drew my attention to him. “Listen, this is a problem.”


    “No! Maybe not!” I reasoned, though I wasn’t sure how it couldn’t be. “We are the only ones that know.


    We will just forget all about it!”


    “As loudly as you moan? I doubt it,” he said in his usual, calm tone, which made me want to smack


    him. But then I remembered that he was a prince, at least in some world, so I kept my hands fisted


    around the nket.


    “Don’t tell me you didn’t enjoy it,” he added.


    I paused and then my face was on fire. All right, I admitted it. The sex had been very good-not that I


    had anything at all topare it to. But… how had I lost my virginity in such a crazy scenario where I


    didn’t even think I was myself?


    Goddess, heavens, just kill me.


    I buried my head under the nket and demanded, “Do not mention it!”


    He seemed to be entertained by my reaction. Through the nket over my head, I heard his light


    chuckle, and then he said, “But that wasn’t what I was about to say.”


    “What is it that you want to say then?”


    “Listen, Ciana, this world wasn’t real.”


    He got my attention. He was right. It really did all seem like a dream.


    “What do you mean?” I uncovered my head from the nket to look at him.


    “Well, I’m not sure, but since you were the first one who touched the crystal, let me ask you this…. Why


    did you do that?”


    “Why did I do what?”


    I noticed that although his expression didn’t change, there was a hint of pink on his handsome face


    again. He cleared his throat. “Why did you… seduce me?”


    “I d-” The words caught in my throat. I wanted to deny it, but I couldn’t. It actually was the case. I had


    been the one to make him have sex with me. In my mind, I had thought he was a servant who was


    going to help me get back at my


    lover, the king.


    Where did all of thise from? It was as if… as if I was


    ying the role of someone else. The emotions I felt were so real and strong-love, betrayal, hatred,


    revenge, and


    pain.


    The king chose someone else. How I wished that wasn’t true… how I wished that… the king would


    marry me and make me the Luna Queen.


    It was as if the one and only purpose I was brought to this world was to fulfill that wish…


    My eyes widened. That was it! That was how we were supposed to “cleanse” or “re-energize” the


    crystal!


    “I think I figured out what we need to do,” I told him. “Well, we’d better get dressed before-”


    But just then, my bedroom door opened, and a woman dressed in a servant’s outfit walked in.


    Seeing her red hair, my face immediately lit up. I was temporarily distracted and happy that Brook was


    with me. But then she realized what was happening. “Mydy! Your guard! He has taken advantage of


    you.”


    “Excuse me?” Theo frowned, but by then, Brook was screaming for the guards toe in and take him


    away.


    “Brook… Do you not remember who he is?” I asked my friend.


    Brook red at him angrily and answered, “Of course I do! And I thought he is the most loyal one


    among all guards!


    Who knew he wouldmit such an outrageous crime to you, mydy….”


    I realized that, unlike me and Theo, Brook might have truly forgotten who she really was except for her


    name.


    Theo’s expression was darker. Without saying anything, he leaped over me and pulled his pants on


    while Brook rushed over and helped to put on my dress.


    “Mydy! Are you all right?” Brook asked. “Did he hurt you?”


    “No, no,” My face must be bright red again. I could feel the heat. “I’m all right.”


    Soon, a bunch of guards came in and took hold of Theo.


    “See that he’s locked up!” Brook told them.


    Theo nced at me and lowered his voice. “Tell them to stop.”


    My mouth opened to say something, like perhaps this was not what Brook thought it was. But we were


    in this strange world, and maybe it wasn’t a bad idea to just go along with what was going on. Either


    way, it wasn’t like that Theo wouldn’t be able to protect himself.


    Besides, I remembered what he had just done to me and


    said to me, I suddenly thought perhaps it would do him some good to experience the interior of a


    dungeon cell


    himself for a bit.


    “Come with us, you vile piece of filth!” one of them said as he grabbed Theo’s arm.


    He red at me and I mouthed my soundless reply, “Go with it.”


    I knew he could easily kill all of those guards and escape ifProperty ? N?velDrama.Org.


    he really tried, but he didn’t. Instead, he went along with


    them and left the room.


    When Brook and I were alone, she bustled around my room, saying, “I’ll get you some clean clothes.


    No, could you like to take a bath or perhaps a shower…” I began to wonder exactly what was going on


    in her head. She seemed


    confused.


    “Brook? Do you know where the others are?” I asked her, my voice just above a whisper in case


    anyone else happened to be listening and wondered what I was talking about.


    She turned to face me, her eyes wide as she asked, “There


    are others?”


    “What?” Now it was my turn to be confused.


    ?


    “Other men in your room!” She spun around a few times, looking for these alleged attackers.


    “No!” I said, almostughing. “I meant… you know. The


    others.”


    If Brook was here, that had to mean that Prince Warren had gotten into this magical ce with Theo


    and me as well,


    didn’t it? And Jake would have to be here because he was standing right next to us when the crystal


    did… whatever the crystal had done.


    What about Sophia? Was that maddening woman here somewhere, too? Why had she even been with


    Brook and Warren when they came looking for me to begin with? It.


    wasn’t as if we were friends….


    “I don’t quite get what you’re asking, mydy.” Brook asked.


    She didn’t know. That had to be the answer. She must not have figured out what I had yet, that we


    weren’t where we


    had been-who we had been.


    It had taken Theo a bit longer than it took me, so perhaps all of our reactions would be different.


    I was certain that if I tried to exin to her what had


    happened, she would be sending me away to get my head examined, so I decided against that.

    Pressing the heel of my hand against my forehead, I said, “You know, I’m not feeling that well. Perhaps


    a nice bath would be in order.”


    “Yes, of course, miss,” she said, and with that, she scurried into the bathroom to run the tub.


    I leaned back against the headboard, trying to sort through all of it. How had the crystal sent us to this


    ce, and who were we each supposed to be?


    If what I thought was correct, that I was the king’s lover and my wish was to marry the king and be


    the Luna Queen, what would we do next?


    A few momentster, Brook came out of the bathroom. “I’


    ve run the bath with your favoritevender salts, miss. Would you like for me to wash your hair for you


    as I usually


    do?”


    I gave her a strange look. Whoever I had be, she was different from me, that was for sure. “No,


    thank you. I’ll manage it myself this time.” I hadn’t looked in a mirror yet, but I had to think I must look


    like myself. After all, Brook looked like herself, and Theo definitely looked like he


    always did.


    Not that I’d seen so much of him before today….


    The thought brought a blush to my cheeks as I went into


    the bathroom.


    The bathroom was lovely, with polished white marble on the floor and arge wfoot tub. I sank down


    into the water and let it soothe my aching muscles.


    Even in the bath, I could still smell Theo’s scent on me. As I washed his essence off of my body, my


    face heated from thinking about what we had done. If it were possible to forget who we were when we


    got there, I wondered if there was a chance he would forget that when we got back to our reality.


    I decided that probably wasn’t the case…..


    The scent of thevender was making me rxed and I


    could think clearer.


    Whoever had used the crystalst had left this wish of marrying the king, and this was something we


    had toplete in order to fulfill the prerequisite of using the crystal to create the blood moon illusion..


    At this point, waiting until the actual blood moon seemed like it would’ve been a lot lessplicated.


    But we were here now, so whatever it was we were


    supposed to do, we’d have to figure it out, get it done, and


    get back to our world.


    First thing first-I decided to get Theo out of that dungeon. While it had seemed a bit humorous to me


    when he’d been taken away by the guards, ultimately, he was the prince, and I shouldn’t be messing


    with him too much.


    Secondly, we needed toe up with a n to fulfill the wish-to get the king to marry me.


    Once the decision was made, I got out from the tub and Brook was already waiting to get me dressed.


    “Brook, can you dress me any faster?” I asked as she took her time putting a ne around my


    neck. It was odd. having anyone dress me anyway. I didn’t understand why royals couldn’t just do it


    themselves….


    “I’m sorry, miss,” she said, but she didn’t speed up any.


    I looked at my reflection in the mirror, and my mind wandered. Who was it that I was supposed to be?


    The mistress to the king.


    When was this crystal usedst? I wondered which king thedy whose wish I had inherited was in


    love with.


    “Are you all right, mydy? You look a little pale.” Brook stopped brushing out my hair to ask me the


    question,


    which irritated me.


    “Yes, yes. I’m fine. Just… hurry up please.”


    She finished my hair, and I thanked her, ready to get out of there. I wondered how I would ever find


    him, but then I


    remembered whoever I was supposed to be, she knew how to get to the dungeon.


    I just needed to follow my instincts.
