The Barter Novel Sierra and Xavier

All my life I lived as a prisoner in my own house, my parents never allowed me even to step out.

I was kept in the dark about the world outside.

But right now standing in the middle of this place, looking at what’s going on around me, I guess it was for the best.

I flinch when I see a werewolf with a huge frame, pinning a fragile girl under him.

I expected her to cry, and ask for help but she was enjoying this.

How…how can she like this?

He was doing wrong with her.

And when I saw that band on his finger.

My mind went blank.

He was married and mated, yet he was with another woman.

here?

My eyes snap to another corner and my heart thuds.

A man was sitting on a lounge sofa with girls surrounding him.

One was offering him a glass of alcohol, another was sitting on his lap, and the third one was kissing him.

What’s wrong with people here?

His blue orbs open to look right at me and I feel fear hit each and every cell of my body as he scrutinized me from top to bottom.

A smirk forms on his lips and he tilts his head to a side.

to get a full view of me.

1 veer my gaze away from him immediately, my hands Instinctively clench around the hem of Xavier’s tuxedo.

He suddenly stops and my head slams on his back,

“Aghh”

He looks back at me.

His eyes trailed to lock at my hands clenching his coat.

“What have I said about you touching fne?”

Technically I was touching his clothes, not him.

But I knew better not to speak it, here.

Lowering my hand, I gulp to ask him.

“Why…why did you bring me here?”

He doesn’t answer.

Making dread to take permanent residence.

in my stomach.

And then he looks at someone behind me.

“Alpha.

What a pleasure to have you here.

How could we serve.

you today?”

I look at a man stepping forward to bow at Xavier and I realise he may be the one managing this place.

His eyes cloud, signifying he has a mind link, and a smirk forms on his lips as he takes notice of me.

What did Xavier say to him?

“Don’t worry Alpha.

You won’t be disappointed.

We will take good care of her tonight.

”

Before I could understand what was going on, I saw that man,

showing me the way.

“Shall we?”

I turn around to look at Xavier to find him already leaving.

His back was to me and I pushed through the bodies to reach him.

“Alpha wait!”

He doesn’t stop.

“Xavier!”

It was too crowded here.

He was already at the door and then suddenly he stopped.

Turning around he looks at me over his shoulder.

Those grey eyes were dead as they stared at me.

And then nothing.

Just like that, he walks out.

Leaving me alone in this hell of a place.

Not caring who I was hitting.

I shove aside people to reach the door.

Thrusting it open I step out to only have my exit barred.

Men wearing black stood outside, with arms extended.

I look at the emblem on their broch to curse.

Dammit!

These were Xavier’s men, he had ordered them to stop me from leaving this place.

I try to push past them but who was I

kidding? They were way stronger than me.

My eyes trail to the luxurious car drifting off the empty street and all my hope dies.

A strange kind of fear enters me

How…how can he leave me in a place like this? I didn’t even say all those things to those maids dammit!

“It’s not that bad here sweetheart.

Come, let me show you the real fun.

”

A voice whispers behind me and I turn around to look at the same man whom Xavier ordered before leaving.

“Ask them to let me leave.

”

He sighs to look back at the guards and then he snaps his eyes back at me.

“Alpha’s orders sweetheart.

”

“Damn it!”

Pushing past him I walk back inside to be only welcomed by an even more crazy atmosphere.

My hands rub my shoulders as I feel bodies touching me in this overly packed place.

People were pushing each other around, dancing, and getting drunk like it was the end of the world.

A woman in barely any clothes, climbed up to dance around what looked like a pole.

Flashing their assets, they were winking and passing over flying kisses to the men hooting for them.

Sneaking in through the crazy crowd, I felt suffocated.

Foreign hands were touching me, as I tried to push further.

And then it happened.

I feel a hand on my bottom.

And I freeze.

“Nice boot.

Little girl.

I turn around to look at a drunk man giving me a smirk.

And my fist clenches.

“Did you just touch me?”

I groan only to find myself getting pushed forward by someone behind.

I stumble to fall on the man’s chest and he rests his hand back on my bottom.

“Yes, little girl.

Didn’t you like it?”

“Fuc* off!”

I tried to push him to have him get off me but he was way stronger.

And then suddenly I don’t know what happened but he backs off.

A strange look clouds his eyes.

Fear? But why? Not giving it much thought I take this opportunity to turn around and spurt

out.

Reaching a deserted dark corner, I breathe heavily.

My clogged throat felt like sandpaper.

How am I going to survive the entire night here?

Minutes passed, and an hour passed.

I never left that corner.

Hugging myself I tried to make myself look as invisible as possible.

The music was throbbing in my ears.

A headache was at its flare.

Water…

I need some water.

“Ma’am, are you alright?”

I turn around to find one of the waiters standing there.

And hope ignites in my chest.

“Water.

Can I get some water?”

“Right away ma’am.

”

He returns with a bottle of water and I open it to gulp it greedily.

Another half an hour passed and suddenly the voices started fading away.

I was feeling lightheaded.

Holding the wall behind me for support I get up to look down at the empty bottle in my hand.

And my stomach churned.

There was something at the bottom of the bottle, a wet powdery substance as if something was mixed in it.

I look around anxiously.

Why? Who could have done it?

Through my hazy vision, I feel a pair of eyes and me and when I look up, I see the same blue–eyed man who was surrounded by girls earlier walking toward me.

Shit!

How can I be so stupid?

He drugged my water.

I

Holding the wall, I try to run from him with my leg starts.

faltering.

It was like all the strength was leaving my body.

A strange heat travels to my core and I was I involuntarily shuddering.

I looked back and he was coming closer.

A smirk lingered on his lips.

I push my legs further.

Reaching an alley, I was seconds away from twisting open the washroom door when a hand muffles on my lips and I pulled back into a room with my scream muffling to silence.

“Shhh.

It’s all going to get over soon.

”

I feel foreign lips on my neck and I thrash to no avail.

My eyes tear and I try to kick him, only to have my legs pinned by his thigh.

“Trust me, you are going to love every second of it.

It’s the strongest eros potion ever known in the world.

”

A strange fire lit in my core and I felt my mind going blank.

No.

Why am I feeling like this? My body, why is it so hot? Why isn’t it disgusted?

My strength to push him away was fading with every second and I felt myself getting laid on a bed, right at his mercy.

His lust–filled eyes stared into mine, as he hovered over me and I just closed my teary ones.

Hoping for this to get over soon.
