Sold as the Alpha King's Breeder Chapter 13 : Are you jealous?

I raised my eyebrow. “Okay.”

“The tests all ca back fine,” Talon began. “She has managed to put back on so weight, and is doing much better than before physically...”

He hesitated going any further, and his uncertainty caught my interest. He seed to be searching for the right words, which was rare for him.

“Based on her reaction to things... you know, due to her previous ntal health concerns – I do have a suggestion if you’d be open to it.”

I was aggracated with how everyone kept saying she was ssed up in the head or not ready. They made assumptions, and they didn’t even know how she truly felt about anything.

Not that I was worried about it, but it was interfering with my task.

“Just spit it out already, for god’s sake,” I said through gritted teeth as I stared at Talon.

“I would simply suggest that you take a slightly different approach to the situation. Perhaps, be slightly gentler than usual. She is a virgin, after all.”

Talon had a lot of nerves to speak to in this manner, but I had a suspicion as to why he was concerned.

“Do you like her Talon?” I asked curiously.

Talon looked up at with confusion. “Seriously? Ethan, you know she is my charge and nothing more. Why would you even think that?”

He called by my na. Now he was speaking as my friend, not my beta. I knew without a doubt that my words had taken him by surprise, because he stood there staring at with his mouth partially open.

I sat back and relaxed my body a bit, waiting for his reply. Granted, I had known Talon since we were boys, but I was still the Alpha, and I don’t tolerate being questioned.

Talon stared at for a mont before letting out a chuckle. “No, Ethan. I only said that because it might help with the situation.”

Shaking his head with a grin, he stared at . “Are you jealous now because she gave a scarf?”

He looked at with curiosity.

“Talon, I was the one who asked the question.” The look on my face told Talon that I didn’t find his comnt amusing.

“I was just wondering... Why would you care what a breeder did?” When I didn’t respond, he continued, “Ethan, Rosalie is a nice girl...”

By now, I knew what was in his mind - he wanted to spare Rosalie’s life.

No wonder he wore that stupid scarf to co to see today.

So many people were dying in the war, innocent or not. Why should she be different? Why did everyone think so highly of her?

“Beta, go do your job.” This ti, my words were firm and left no room for discussion. “That scarf doesn’t suit you, and I don’t want to see it again.”

I didn’t need anyone to remind how good Rosalie was. It didn’t matter, anyways. She didn’t belong here.

“Yes, Alpha,” Talon sighed. I knew he understood what I ant.

“Miss Rosalie talked to today...”

I was about to lose it, but he continued before I could interrupt.

“...She said she is ready to breed. And she was wondering when you could fit that on your agenda.”

I raised my eyebrow again. Honestly, I was a bit surprised. Wouldn’t she prefer to hide from for as long as possible?

I couldn’t help but think back to how she had shaken with fear and cried the first ti I tried to claim her. Her small form lay upon the bed, eyes closed, trembling as her long hair flowed around her like a crown...

What the h*ll! Seriously, was I really that terrifying to her?

“In two days.” I looked at Talon as I gave my answer. “Anything else for , Beta?”

He could tell that was all I was willing to discuss for the night. “No, Alpha. May I be excused?”

I waved my hand, gesturing for Talon to leave the room.

He sighed as he turned, walking out the door.

***Rosalie’s POV

Two days ago, I inford Talon that I was ready to take on the role of breeder. The ti had flown by.

“You’re not going to regret this,” Vicky said as she paced around the study area in my room, an eager smile upon her face. “You’ll be a great mother!”

I smiled back at her, but felt guilty. As much as she had been a great friend, we had different views on the breeder situation.

Yes, I had been doing everything I could to build my strength and get myself ready physically and ntally to fulfill my role as a breeder. But it was in order to earn my freedom.

“She’s right, Rosalie.” Estrella added in agreent. “I’ve looked over all your dical records, and you are doing marvelous. Taking the ti to get healthy has done wonders for you. Plus, you have gotten to know the pack as well and made new friends, I hear?”

A smile lit up my face as I nodded. “Yes... I love going into the village.”

“I love the scarf you made for and Talon!” Vicky called out with a giggle. For so reason, I felt like her giggle was a bit mischievous when she ntioned Talon. “Don’t you feel so much more comfortable here?”

“Yes, I do.”

The smile and blush that swept my face made cast my eyes down, thinking about the ti I was spending within the Drogomor pack. People had been far nicer than I had expected – except for the Alpha.

However, even when it ca to Alpha Ethan – as intimidating as he was, I appreciated that he hadn’t done anything to hurt . In fact, a part of wanted to see him again.

This thought made blush even more.

“Rosalie, you’re going to do great! I just know it!” Vicky jumped up and grasped my arms.

I took a deep breath.

I was the one who had asked for it this ti, and I thought I was ready... but what if I did it wrong again? This was probably my last chance. If I couldn’t get this done properly, I didn’t dare imagine what the consequences would be.

The thought wiped the smile off my face, and Vicky must’ve noticed it. She walked to a chair and sat down.

“Rosalie, are you okay? What’s wrong? Can I get you anything?”

Estrella stepped closer and answered for . “Vicky, you can get her so quiet monts and so rest.” Then she turned to . “Rosalie, sweetie, you still need to have a light dinner before you go get ready.”

“Yes, yes, Estrella, I’ll stop talking and ask them to bring so salads right way.” Vicky made a face to Estrella like a little kid, still very excited. Then she ran out of the door before I could say “Thank you.”

“Crazy girl!” Estrella shook her head with a grin on her face.

Then she turned to , and I noticed her expression was more serious.

“Rosalie, you can be honest with . Are you sure you’re ready? You know...”

She pulled over a chair and sat next to , so I didn’t need to raise my head to talk to her. “...the Alpha has granted us more ti if we need it.”

“Estrella,” I looked her in the eye with an assuring smile. “I will be fine. I promise.”

I could hear my heart pounding as I spoke. But I made up my mind, and the earlier I could get it done, the better.

“Okay.”

Estrella hesitated for a mont, then let out a sigh.

“Please rember to just relax and flow with it. Also” – she pulled out a miniature transparent container with a couple pills in it – “take this, please. It’ll make things much easier.”

I looked at them, a bit confused. “Estrella, these are...?”

“Yes, I know. They’re to help with sexual desire, and should bring on your heat and make the situation a little more... comfortable for you. Take the pills before you et with him. They will help to relax you, and put you more in a... better mood to engage in the activity.”

Estrella’s words rang through my mind, and a soft sigh left my lips. They would definitely help, but it still made nervous to take sothing like this.

When I looked back up to where Estrella had been sitting, she was already up and walking out of the room.

I was left alone in the enormous Luna suite – with so much on my mind.
