Sold As The Alpha King’s Breeder Chapter 11
***Talon‘s POV
After the conversation I had with Ethan, I went to see Estre the next day. She had made sure to put
Rosalie on a strict diet and rest order to ensure she gained her strength back. A couple weeks had pas
sed, and Rosalie had been improving steadily, both physically and mentally. Estre convinced me that
Rosalie needed to get out of the house. That way, she wouldn‘t feel like she was a prisoner within our
walls –
of course, she would always need to be apanied. Usually, I watched Rosalie from a distance. My
sister Vicky had taken over being Rosalie‘s caretaker when it came to venturing outside of the main ho
use. The two of them got along quite well. I knew that Vicky‘s heart would break, though, when Ethan h
ad Rosalie killed. Rosalie was a kind spirit that you couldn‘t hate even if you tried. She did no wrong, an

Vicky‘s voice filtered through the air, and I turned in the hallway to see her running towards me.
case.
“What‘s wrong?” I frowned. She seemed frantic, and I didn‘t like seeing my sister like that.
“Nothing. I just have to go take care of something, and I was hoping you can take Rosalie out into the vi
ge today.” Me? Take her out? “Please, please? Help me this once, please? You are the best brother
ever!” Vicky blinked at me, her eyes pleading her case. And unfortunately for me, she knew I could not t
urn her down on a small favor like this. Plus, it wasn‘t like I didn‘t know what Rosalie did
every day. I was always watching her to make sure she was safe, anyway. “Only this once.” I tried to pu
t on a stern face, but I knew it held no deterrent for her. “Great! Thank you so much!” she squealed with
excitement. She wrapped me in a hug before turning and scampering off. “The h?ll just happened…” I c
huckled to myself as I made my way towards Rosalie‘s room. I knocked on the door and waited for her
to open it. I
didn‘t want to intrude on anything she might be doing. Regardless of her status within our pack, she wa
s still ady, and should be treated as such. When the door opened, I came face to face with
her mesmerizing blue eyes. “Talon?” She said softly. I couldn‘t help but put on my polite smile. “Vicky h

genuinely surprised by my offer to take her out, and quickly nodded her head before following me.

The vige was lively that day.

After a few hours of wandering around and watching her with the people of the pack, I had to
admit iRosalie had
luna qualities. She was kind, and sweet. She was still very hesitant around men she didn‘t know, but w
hen it came to women and especially children– she
was radiant. “Talon…” Rosalie said softly as she padded up to me. “Here.” She held out a scarf that sh
e had been making with another woman. I couldn‘t help but be confused. “What‘s this for?” I asked. Her
smile faltered for a moment. The hesitant look returned to her eyes. “Oh… um… Well, I made you
a gift,” she stammered with her words while her eyes directly went
to the ground, her cheeks turning red with embarrassment. “You‘ve helped me so much since I came h
ere. I wanted to give you something, as well.” I had never had someone give me a gift for
doing my job – a job that would lead to her death. “No – please don‘t be embarrassed. I
just wasn‘t sure why you would want to give me something. Here … give it to me.” I quickly took it
from her open hand and ced it around my neck. It definitely wasn‘t something I would ever personall
y choose to wear, but she had made it for me and given it to me as a gift. So I wasn‘t going to be disres
pectful. I had seen how quickly her mood changed when I
questioned her. It was a shame she always seemed to feel the way she did. She didn’t realize how capt
ivated everyone was with her, and how well respected she already was for someone who had not been
here all that long. It was like a feeling deep inside us. Our wolves could sense
there was more to her than there seemed. A connection. “Well, what do you think?” I asked, trying to m
ake myself look happy. As she looked at me, she actually giggled. “You look great. Those colors look g
ood on you. I was a bit surprised when Vicky told me you like colorful things…”. Dammit Vicky! I
should‘ve known it was her idea!! No wonder she asked me to take Rosalie out today. She was sweet,
but I would never have worn this mix of colors together any other
time. I felt like I was wearing a rainbow around my neck. It definitely wasn‘t something you could miss. I
tried my best to maintain my smile. “Thank you. I will wear it with pride.” Rosalie scampered off
quickly to rejoin the women she had been knitting with, talking
and smiling with the group. I grounded my teeth – Vicky, you just wait! “Beta.”
One of the warriors approached me. He was in charge of all the informants we had in other packs.
“The informant reported that a few packs on the frontier were attacked,”
“Details?” I asked curtly, “It seems that some of the outlying packs have been attacked
sporadically. There were a few casualties, but there weren‘t too many involved in these first incursions. W

“Any ideas who was behind the attacks?” I
asked, trying to piece together more information to share with
Ethan. “We have some guesses, but no proof,” he replied. “Get me the list of the packs that
were attacked and the details of the casualties. I‘ll need it in thirty minutes.” “Yes, sir.” He
