Sold As The Alpha King’s Breeder Chapter 55


    Chapter 55 Ethan Again!


    Almost exactly thirty minutes after our short break, I saw the cabin appear up ahead.


    As we were approaching our first destination, I opened my bag to inspect Damian’s clothing. Sure


    enough, I found a six inch switchde in his pocket.


    I took it out and tucked it in the bottom of my bag. I didn’t want to have to use it, either, but I sure wasn’t


    giving it to him.


    We reached the cabin, and I leapt off of Damian’s back. It wasn’t raining hard here, but we were both


    drenched from earlier and were exhausted.


    “Thank goodness we’re here,” I said. “Are we going in?” I got Damian’s clothes out of my bag and


    dropped them near him. I wasn’t sure if he had shifted yet.


    When I heard his voice, I knew he was getting dressed. “Yes. Let’s get changed here,” he said. “We


    have a car nearby, and this was just a ce to hide the vehicle, a ce for us to aim fo


    “I see.” I walked into the cabin and found a dry towel. I heard his footsteps following.


    “Let me know when you’re dressed,” I said.


    I waited with my back to him for what seemed like too much time. I finally nced over my shoulder


    and saw him rifling through his pockets.


    My heart sank.


    I didn’t want to believe that Damian was capable of harming me or my baby, but he’d just confirmed it.


    “What are you doing?” I asked him.


    His eyes were wide when he realized I was looking at him. “1… uh.. dropped something. Maybe it’s in


    your bag.”


    I could tell that he was getting a little tired because his speech was slower than usual.


    My eyebrows knit together. “What is it?” I asked him. “I can find it for you. I’ve got important women’s


    things here.”


    He looked a little leery of that, as I knew he would. Men don’t like to think about feminine products. Still,


    he couldn’t let me find the knife and hand it over to him. “Just let me look.”


    I studied his face for a moment.


    He took a step toward me, and I retreated. He wasn’t as big as Ethan, but he was definitely stronger


    than me. He could easily overpower me, find the knife, and kill me.


    Damian cocked his head to the side. He knew then that I was suspicious.


    “Rosalie. I told you that you’re safe with me.”


    I nodded. “I know. But I wanted to ask you, Damian- why is Madalynn doing this?”


    “What do you mean?” he asked me. I saw him blink a few times, as if trying to stay focused.


    I tried to keep the conversation flowing casually. “You’ve got to be exhausted from that long run. Are


    you sure you don’t want to take a few minutes to rest?”


    He shook his head really fast, trying to wake up. “I’m fine. What do you mean, why is Madalynn doing


    this?”


    “I mean, it doesn’t make sense, does it? Why would she want to help me? She has no reason to.”


    “She doesn’t want your baby around, like she told you,” he said. “She needs your baby out of the


    picture so that her baby can be the heir, if she ever has one.”


    “So”. why not just.. kill us?” I asked him, looking him straight in the eyes. “That seems more like


    something Madalynn would do.” I emphasized her name so that he knew I wasn’t using him of


    anything.


    He opened his mouth and closed it.


    Slowly, Damian shook his head again, as if to say he couldn’t believe I figured them out.


    I stared into his eyes as my emotions bubbled to the surface. “It’s a baby, Damian. An unborn child.


    How could anyone ever even consider taking the life of a baby?”


    “I can’t answer that.,” he said firmly. “Rosalie, give me your bag.”


    “So”. that’s how it’s going to be, then?” I asked him.


    He shrugged. “I need


    to see your bag.”


    He took a few steps toward me, and I backed up, but even in his overly tired state, he was way faster


    than me. He was almost on top of me before I managed to reach into the bag and pull out the knife.


    “Is this what you’re looking for?”


    Damian grabbed for the knife, his hand sping around my wrist.


    I backed up again, hitting the wall. My head thunked against it, and pain radiated through my skull, but I


    had to keep my focus.


    “Rosalie,” he said, “you’re her biggest threat, the only one who could potentially take what she has.” He


    looked me in the eyes. “The order I received was to end your life!”


    My heart dropped, and I trembled in horror as he managed to snatch the weapon from me.


    He was strong enough to control my arm as he bent the knife toward my neck. I stared into his eyes.


    “Damian, please… “I pleaded outwardly. Inwardly, however, my eyes studied him coldly, and my brain


    was analyzing the best moment for my attack.


    No one could hurt my child, even if that meant I needed to kill.


    My fruit knife was under my long sleeve, and I was preparing myself for a fatal blow.


    Just as I tensed to strike, however, his grip loosened, and he let go.


    He folded his knife closed and looked at me sincerely. “But I never, ever wanted to hurt you. You know


    that, don’t you?”


    Everything had happened in a few seconds, and my brain was struggling to process it.


    “You.you’re not going to kill me?”


    “No. Rosalie.” I could tell his eyelids were getting heavier.


    “But when Madalynn finds out…


    “She’ll get the news that you’re dead.” He yawned again, struggling to stay awake. “Madalynn is just a


    spoiled kid. You don’t need… don’t need to wor…”


    Then he took a few steps back before his eyes rolled back into his head, and he crumpled to the


    ground like a paper bag


    I stood there against the wall, letting out a long breath.


    A momentter, Damian started snoring lightly.


    The water I had offered him earlier had quite a few sleeping pills dissolved in it.


    I took a few minutes to make sure he was out cold, and then sprang into action.


    I got the car keys out of his pocket and found an envelope full of cash. He hadn’t lied about helping me


    escape otherwise he wouldn’t need to bring that much money.


    Iid Damian in afortable position and covered him with a nket. After all, he hadn’t hurt me, and


    without him, I would never have been able to escape from the capitol. This was the least I could do for


    him.


    I went into the woods to locate the car. Luckily, it wasn’t difficult to find.


    As soon as I got on the road, I finally felt my pounding heartbeat calmed down and I could breathe


    freely again.


    “Let’s get out of here,” I said to my baby.


    ***


    I arrived at the port early in the morning using a different route than the one that Damian had mapped


    out.


    After pulling into arge parkingplex, I examined the trunk of the car and found a suitcase with


    clothes and other essentials for me. There were also men’s items for Damian.


    I sighed. Damian did n everything out thoroughly.


    However, I decided to leave all of that behind. I didn’t want anyone to track me down, including him.


    True, he had let me go, but I still wasn’t convinced that he risked his life to help me purely out of the


    goodness of his heart.


    The port city was busy and packed with travelers like me. It was a perfect ce for me to blend in.


    After a quick round of shopping, I changed into my new jeans and T-shirt. By the time I put on a wig


    and sunsses, I could hardly recognize myself.


    Great job, Rosalie! And I gave myself a smile.


    Feeling confident about my disguise, I walked to the port to figure out my next destination.


    The breezeing in off of the sea smelled sweet and calming. The sun was already warm on my


    face. I lifted my head up and took a deep breath in, loosening the tension in my shoulders, which had


    been permanently up around my ears,


    All of sudden, I had a feeling like someone was looking at me. Jolting myself out of my briefpse, I


    nced around angrily, but found nothing.


    It was probably paranoia”.


    I tried to calm myself down by focusing on my next move,


    Damian had been nning on taking a ship to Suntra, so I went to a different ticket office, one that


    would have boats leaving from a different dock going to a different ind.


    I needed a brand new ce for a person like me, someone who needed to erase her past and start


    over.


    ***


    “The boat to Avondale is boarding now!”


    Thurried to the pier when I heard the announcement.


    I’d never been on a boat like this before. It was a beautiful cruise ship.


    I couldn’t help the huge grin that crossed my face. Every step I took towards the ship was a step closer


    to freedom.


    “Good morning,” the man in a blue uniform said as I reached him. He was distracted as he took my


    ticket and looked it over. “Wee aboard.”


    “Thank you,” I said, not bothering to ask him where to go. I’d find my room on my own. How hard could


    it be? I’d gotten this far.


    For now, I just wanted to breathe in the fresh ocean air.


    I walked to the back of the boat and found a seat on a bench, cing the suitcase between my feet


    where | could keep track of it. Plenty of people were bustling around, but no one was paying me any


    mind.


    However, I just couldn’t get rid of the feeling of someone watching me.


    Inced around, but again, no one was even looking in my direction.


    ‘Inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale…’.


    Iconvinced myself I was overreacting, and decided to sit down and stare out at the ocean. The peaceful


    waves and the light breeze gently soothed my mind.


    In a few minutes, the boat would pull away from the dock, and I’d be leaving everything behind. I would


    finally be free, not just from my abusive family, but from Ethan and the oppression he’d imprisoned me


    under.


    If I allowed myself to think about him, I’d start to cry.

    My hands instinctively went to my abdomen. It was just the natural way for me to sit now. I wanted to


    keep my baby safe and loved, no matter what.


    I took a deep breath and brushed my hair away from my face, not allowing myself to feel the raw


    emotion overwhelming me.


    The exhaustion from a night of running was finally catching up with me. I considered whether I should


    go find my quarters and just go to sleep, but I wanted to make sure the ship was moving before I went


    anywhere.


    It took forever, but finally, inch by inch, the boat pulled away from the dock.


    A stuttered breath escaped my lungs.


    I did it! I’d actually gotten away.


    I couldn’t believe it.


    Thugged myself even tighter and watched as the ship set out to sea, the rocking motion lulling me a bit,


    the same way I nned to rock my own baby one day.


    Satisfied that I was safe and no one was going to be able to reach me now, I stood up, grabbed my


    suitcase, and was about to head toward the room I’d been assigned.


    I turned around and gave onest nce toward thend I was leaving, and then, I saw him.


    I stopped in my tracks, frozen.


    How was this possible? How could he be here?


    My breath caught in my throat, and my heart stopped beating.


    On the dock, only a couple hundred feet away from my boat, was a tall, handsome man, looking in my


    direction with icy eyes.


    Ethan.
