The Forced Maiden For The Cursed Alpha King by Josephine Ivy

Chapter 42

SABRINA’S POV

“He refused!!” My voice rang out through the hollow marble halls.

Caldan nodded, in the grim way doctors used when they were about to deliver bad news. “Unfortunately, he did.”

I dropped the cleaning brush in my hand and ran my fingers through my hair. I found tangled and that made me even

angrier

What the actual fuck is the King’s problem? No really, what does he want from me?!

“This is how can this be?” I asked. I bit my lower lip hard and sighed.

Okay, I know he hated me, but this much? Come on! Even I don’t hate Blair this much!

“The king is jealous. Caldan said.

I turned to him, and I’m sure my face spelled out “what the fuck?”

“Whatever reason does he have to be jealous?” I asked. I hadn’t meant to sound so snappy, but I was just so out of it. “He hates me. Caldan. It’s plain for the world to see. He’s doing this punish me. He thinks I’m….urgh! I came believe he still thinks I’m like fucking Zayn

I felt like clawing my eyes out, dipping them in acid, and putting them back in my eye sockets.

Truth be told, I wasn’t exactly jumping at the idea of being bought out by Caldan. Even if he does let me go, like a bird one released from a cage, I would always feel this tether holding me back. A sense of belonging to him, for the fact that he took out his money to buy my freedom. No matter what he says that I’ll be my own person, it doesn’t work like that.

I hated that feeling, so I wasn’t ecstatic about at

But still, a tiny part of me wanted that freedom. The freedom from being a slave. To have my freedom back without red eyes policing me.

And now, those hopes have been shattered. I felt hot tears sting my eyes but I pushed them down.

I bit my lower lip till I tasted blood. And I pulled at the tangles in my hair till strands of my hair came out of my fingers.

“I’m deeply sorry for this, Rina Caldan said, his lulling voice pulled me out of my dark thoughts.

“It’s not your fault.” I said, my throat aching due to the suppressed tears. “You did the best you could

So that’s at

I really am stuck in this place huh?

With no way out Resigned to spend my days as a slave till I drop dead!

Wow. What a wonderful fate.

I’ve always asked myself what I did to the moon goddess in my past life to deserve such a string of bad luck in this current life of mine. Did I desecrate a temple Did I tarnish her name? Whatever did I do?!

Why does she hate me so damn much!!

The buds of hate for the king has blossomed into a whole fucking garden.

“Rina Caldan called. He touched my arm gently. “Hey, are you okay?”

I looked at him. The king is his brother, and yet that meant nothing to mean when he pleaded for my freedom. Will my pleas mean anything to him?

I doubt it.
