Chapter 141
SAGE
“How long are you planning to keep me here?” I asked directly, my voice steadier than I felt. My heart thumped wildly as Titus closed the door behind him with a heavy “thud.”
in
My pulse kicked up another notch when he started peeling off his clothes without a word. First, his jacket hit the floor, followed by the slow unbuttoning of his shirt, exposing his chiseled chest and taut muscles. My breath caught but not from admiration–it was fear that gripped me like a vice
my
throat,
“W–What are you doing?” I stammered, stepping back instinctively, my voice laced with panic.
He tilted his head slightly, an amused smirk curving his lips. ‘Am I not allowed to take a bath in my own room?” he asked casually, as if this situation were perfectly normal.
His words threw me off. “Your room?” I echoed in disbelief. “Where are we? And how long are you planning to keep me
here?”
He raised a brow, his smirk deepening. “Oh, come on, kitten. You just got here. Why are you so eager to leave?” His sarcasm was thick, daring me to believe I had any control over the situation. But we both knew the truth–I was his prisoner, and leaving wasn’t an option.
I clenched my fists. “I need to go, Titus-
Before I could finish, everything blurred. In a blink, he was in front of me, mere inches away. His hand shot out, gripping my neck with brutal precision. The sudden impact against the wall knocked the breath from my lungs,
“Your Majesty,” he corrected, his voice dangerously low, each word dripping with venom. “That’s how you’re supposed to address me. You don’t get to call me by my name after you betrayed me.”
His fingers tightened around my throat, cutting off my air. I clawed at his hand, desperate to free myself, but his grip was unyielding. My feet dangled off the ground, panic surging through me as my vision began to blur.
I gasped, struggling against the suffocating hold, my lungs burning for air. The room spun, darkness creeping at the edges of my sight. Just when I thought I would slip into unconsciousness, he released me with a sudden shove.
I crumpled to the floor, coughing violently as air rushed back into my lungs. My throat throbbed, raw and bruised, each breath a painful reminder of his strength.
I forced myself to sit up, my entire body trembling from the aftermath of his assault. Each ragged breath scraped against my raw throat, but I swallowed the pain, refusing to let it show. My pride clung to me like armor, cracked but still intact.
My voice came out hoarse, barely above a whisper, as I fought to steady it. “What are you planning to do with me?”
Titus loomed above me, casting a shadow that felt heavy and oppressive. His presence sucked all the air out of the room. The cold gleam in his eyes made my stomach churn, but I held His gaze, refusing to cower even though fear coiled tightly in my chest.
“What else would it be?” he said, his voice disturbingly calm, each word deliberate. “I have every plan of getting my money’s worth.”
A chill ran down my spine as his lips curled into a smile that sent waves of dread through me.

“You’re going to be my breeder. Isn’t that what your auction description promised!”
The casual menace in his tone was far more terrifying than any yell or threat. There was no need for theatrics when the words themselves were so cutting, so final.
My breath hitched, a wave of nausea rising in my throat. “No,” I whispered, disbelief and horror mingling in my voice.
He crouched down, bringing himself eye level with me, his face unnervingly calm. “Oh, but you will, Sage.” he said softly, the gentleness of his tone a stark contrast to the cruelty of his intentions. “You have no choice. Your bloodline is too valuable to waste, and I paid a hefty price to claim it.”
I shook my head, my nails digging into the plush carpet beneath me as I tried to ground myself. “We both know pay a single cent. Didn’t you trash the auction?” I accused him.
you didn’t
Titus’s hand shot out, gripping my chin with a brutal tenderness tilting my face toward his. His touch burned, not with warmth but with the icy sting of power and dominance.
“That’s true: But you have no idea what I’ve been through just to find you…” he murmured, his breath brushing against my skin.
My pulse raced, panic threatening to consume me, but rage simmered just beneath the surface, igniting toy resolve.
“You can’t keep me here, I spat, my voice raw but firm.

The readers' comments on the novel: Betrayed by an Alpha claimed by a Lycan King (Sage and Titus)
Is it finished?...
...i mean...you had the perfect ending...why keep going?? ugh...i feel like author is going to continue with twists and turns [-_-]...
Don't mean to be rude but half the chapters are missing. As in your only publishing Half the chapter. Not all of it...
Would love more chapters...
ok just as a recap because i'm getting confused with this plot: sage (the daughter of the ex-alpha who was killed for betraying his pack) is contracted to marry the lycan king bc the present alpha doesn't want to give his own daughter to the king. sage sleeps with someone before the wedding (turns out to be the king). there's a caper at the palace where the king doesn't let her look at him bc he wants to keep her guessing for some reason but eventually she finds out that man she slept with is her husband now. there are other concubines and a queen but for some reason titus still doesn't have an heir despite being like thousands of years old. there is a prophecy that a red wolf will destroy the evil inside the king and when it comes to pass titus looks like he dies. sage runs away (she is the red wolf) bc shes scared of being called a killer. when she comes back titus has been manipulated to believe her "sister" is his mate. there's an intermission where sage runs away with her handmaiden to new york and they start a life for themselves. until titus buys out the company bc he's filthy rich and drags her back. the sister gets punished and jailed to be killed, but sage's intervention (due to her previous feelings for the brother) prevents her death. there's a point when the royal elders storm the castle and titus is jailed and almost at the point of death. taking the beta and her handmaiden they rescue titus and restore him to health. while sage was in new york, titus had somehow found his dead wife again (anna?) and she's very childlike and annoying. all the times sage saves titus doesn't matter because he's been deposed as king and brainwashed by his dead wife to believe she's everything to him. titus dissolves the bond between he and sage (bc of pressure from previous wife) but still has feelings for her and still sleeps with her while trying to reclaim his throne by making alliances with other werewolf packs. a bounty hunter offers his help but demands sage as the price. titus says no, but sage goes behind his back anyway and makes the deal. thinking titus is blinded by sage's presence that prevents him from forming alliance with a pack and having that alpha's daughter as his queen, she runs way with the bounty hunter and he puts her up for sale (she's an idiot for doing this). finding out she's pregnant with an accelerated pregnancy (due to blood moon sex?) she runs away from the auction house and is rescued by a couple who never had kids miles away from where she ran away. 3 years or so pass and she is happy with her chosen family until the bounty hunter finds her again and she goes with him to keep him away from her kids only to be rescued by titus at the auction house. he also finds her kids (bc they obvy would run away to find her) but she for some reason convinces them to lie and say they're not her kids. reunited again, they come across rogue wolves who hurt titus, but they somehow all fit into the helicopter that comes at the right time to save them all. titus while being gravely ill still saves sage from being sentenced to death, but now her kids are in danger....
ok now im reinvested! I hope the kids will be ok! titus now would be a good time to wake up!...
If possible, kindly change the title of the book too because Sage is suppose to be happy with Titus but this back and forth is making the book boring...
Please this has to stop , Titus is suppose to be her savior but she's going through too much...
This book really started good. And for whatever reason, the author keeps on adding boring and nonsensical twist to the story. I'm just skipping through chapters and story still the same.repeating issues and conflict and convo. So tiring. I'm just checking in hoping I can read the ending. Lolz...
We need an end soon. It getting boting and is so boring. Also people is missing. Were is her former maid and scott used to be her friend now he treat her like a stranger...
