Sold As The Alpha King’s Breeder Chapter 97


    Chapter 97 The Lady With White Hair


    “Ro, all the boxes were unloaded,e in and check it out!” Seraphine led me to the


    house, and I was so excited to finally have my own home!


    I couldn‘t believe that I had a ce to live, independent of anyone else–


    It didn‘t belong to my father, it wasn‘t in Ethan‘s pack or James‘s castle, and it wasn’t right next to


    Soren‘s house.


    This was mine…. I had worked hard, and I‘d earned it! Granted that it was purchased


    by Soren, but nevertheless, I was able to at least cover the rent


    Ethan had made it beautiful already. On


    top of that, I had so much fun decorating the nursery with Seraphine.


    We continued to take items out of boxes and put them on the shelves for my baby.


    “Thismp is pretty,” Seraphine said. “Did you pick it up when you were shopping with Mr. Soren?”


    “I did,” I said as I took it from her. It was a bright yellow boat that I thought would look nice for a boy or


    a girl.


    “Speaking of Mr. Soren, he said he would be over tomorrow afternoon.” Seraphine informed me.


    I knew Soren must be busy with work. He was already helpful enough


    to have his men move everything for me. “Sounds good. That‘ll give me time to prepare


    a celebration dinner!” I smiled, “But first of all, let‘s get the nursery ready.”


    Walking in the house, every room I was in, my mind went to Ethan. I


    was excited, not only because this was my space, but also because Ethan would be here.


    I went to the closest to finish hanging the baby‘s clothes up. Picking up a tiny outfit and putting


    it on a hanger made me think about the closet in my bedroom. I thought to myself, “When


    Ethan is here, I‘ll have to make room for all of his things.” The closet in my bedroom wasrge, so all


    of our clothes should fit together.


    I could imagine what it would be like to walk into the closet and see his suits hanging there. Would it


    smell like him in there? If I closed my eyes, I could smell him, that strong, masculine, musky scent that


    reminded me of the forest.


    I wouldn‘t mind if my clothes smelled a little like his.


    “This baby sure has a lot of belongings already for someone who hasn‘t been born yet,” Seraphine said


    with a chuckle. She was straightening some toys on a shelf,


    “1 know. That’s because this baby is so well–loved,” I replied, wrapping my hands around my bell.


    Finishing hanging the clothes in the closet I looked around the room. As I worked through the pile


    of tiny clothing, I imagined myself folding Ethan‘s clothing and putting them in a drawer. I‘d match his so


    cks and fold his briefs. That brought a blush to my face, and I had to nce over my


    shoulder to see if Seraphine was looking,


    Thankfully, she wasn‘t. She was still ying with the toys, putting them on the shelf.


    I imagined Ethan ying with the baby, sitting on the floor. driving those trains and cars


    around. If the baby was a girl, maybe he would even y dolls with her.


    I smiled, stiling a giggle so that Seraphine wouldn‘t ask me any questions, and moved on.


    I moved to a stack of children‘s books that were


    sitting on the floor. They just needed to be picked up and put on the shelf, something Seraphine had be


    en doing earlier, but she‘d gotten distracted for some reason.


    I lowered myself down to the ground and


    started shelving the books, but then I thought about what sort of books Ethan might want in the


    house. Did he bring any with him? Would we need


    a bookshelf in the living room for our books in the living room? The


    idea of having Ethan‘s books in the house brought a smile to my lips. I just wanted him here.


    As I sat there, listening


    to Seraphine hum a cheerful song, I thought about Ethan. Would I be able to meet himter?


    We could live here, on the ind, together, in this house, but would he leave King


    James and all of his responsibilities behind for me?


    Then something on the floor caught


    my attention. I picked it out from the pile of the children‘s books and realized that it was a half–


    opened ne locket.


    “Seraphine,” I called


    her name, recognizing that she normally wore it. No wonder she seemed distracted. She must


    have been looking for it. As I was about to hand it over to her, the corner of my eye caught a glimpse of


    what was inside.


    It was a regal woman with long, white hair wearing a crown.


    “Oh, you found it for me, Ro. Thank you!” Seraphine walked over, and she seemed relieved.


    “Ro?” Seraphine‘s voice jarred me back to reality.


    I blinked a few times. “Yes, Seraphine. Oh, here you go.”


    “You seem lost in thought.” Seraphine took it over. “Are you okay?”


    “Uh… yes, don‘t worry.” I didn‘t know what to say.


    She looked at the locket and asked softly, “Dear, was there something wrong with the locket?”


    I shook my head and smiled at her, “No, nothing‘s wrong. Just thedy in your locket reminds me of my


    mother.”


    Seraphine kneeled down next to me. Her tone was a little rushed. “How so?”


    There was an unusual thrill in her voice.


    I think probably because the one in the locket had significant meaning to her, but I didn‘t want to pry.


    I exined, “My mother also had beautiful white hair.”


    Seraphine seemed surprised. However, she nodded in understanding and didn‘t ask further questions.


    She knew


    I lost my mother when I was young, and therefore being as considerate as she always was, she wouldn


    ‘t continue to stay on the topic.


    She put the locket ne back on and helped me stand up, saying, “Those who have passed will be


    there to guide us and protect us. Don‘t be sad, dear.”


    | smiled at her with appreciation, “Thank you, Seraphine.”


    The afternoon flew away before we knew it.


    “You must be exhausted,” Seraphine said after


    thest of the boxes were unpacked. She was a huge help and fun, but it was tiring regardless,


    I smiled at her. My body was also telling me that I was weary and probably needed to rest, but the


    Copic ITU LUU WIL


    anticipation of seeing Ethan soon had me on pins and needles.


    just knew he would have toe and see me on the first day at my new house.


    “Thank you so much foring and helping me move,” I told Seraphine, ushering her to the front door.


    “Of course, I had lots of fun too. I‘lle back tomorrow to check on you. We


    shall have a good celebration tomorrow.” She smiled and left with a quick goodnight.


    I watched her leave and then headed back to my room.


    Because I insisted that I didn‘t need that many guards around me, Soren only left two guards with me.


    They never came into my house without getting my


    permission ahead of time. That would allow me enough privacy to see Ethan


    undetected. I felt butterflies stirring in my stomach.


    I decided to take a nice warm shower. My limbs were a little sore, but I wasn‘t ready to lie down yet.


    As the water rolled off my skin, I remembered how I had felt the


    first time I was waiting for Ethan to enter the Luna suite, back at his home. Only


    back then, I was merely a breeder to Ethan.


    Now, I was the woman he cared for, at least that was what he tried to persuade me to believe.


    Thinking about him had my heart beating fast and my abdomen clenching in ways it hadn‘t in months.


    I needed to be with


    him. My body was calling out for him. I hoped it wouldn‘t take long for him to get here,


    Of course, I simply wanted to see him, to speak to him, to wrap my arms around him. However, by the t


    ime


    I put on a slinky little dress and acy bra and panties, I was so embarrassed that my face was burning


    . I didn‘t even know


    why I did that. Maybe it had been far too long since Ethan and I had been together. I longed for his touc


    h….


    Taking a deep breath, I walked around the new


    house, wondering how he would get here. Only a couple of … guards were hanging around out front, b


    ut it still made me nervous. I knew there was a tunnel somewhere in the house, but as we were moving


    in, I hadn’t seen any traces of it.


    An hour went by. The night grew darker. I became more restless.


    I decided to open the window in the living room. It was our old signal, the one I‘d used to let him know I


    was expecting him.


    Was he waiting for that?


    I had no idea, but it was worth the try.


    Standing there for a few moments, I breathed in the salty ocean air and let it wash over my skin, hoping


    it would cool me. But I still felt the heated thoughts of Ethan ignited in me.


    Another hour went by, and the night wore on.


    I decided I needed to go lie down. He had gifted me with such a beautiful space. I may as well use it.


    With a deep breath, I turned around to walk into the bedroom and was


    greeted by a hulky shadow filling up most of the doorway from the dining room into


    the hall that led to the bedrooms.


    At first I was a bit startled, but then, I caught his scent and knew for certain it was Ethan without even ha


    He moved toward me, and a beam of moonlight illuminated his features, highlighting his strong jaw and


    “Ethan…” I whispered, moving quickly across the room to him,


    He spread his arms wide for me, and his strong grip enveloped me,


    l‘d never felt safer in my life.


    I‘d never felt more at home.


    “You‘rete,” I whispered into his muscr chest. I knew I must sound whiny.


    He chuckled, “Sorry, my love.”


    My love… I heard my heart thumping.


    He caressed my cheek, and I looked up at him.


    He smiled at me, his thumb stroking my face for a moment before he lowered


    his head, and his warm mouth met mine. He tasted of mint, and as his tongue danced along


    with mine, I reached up to thread my fingers through his


    hair, stretching up on my tiptoes to press my mouth against his.


    Ethan continued to kiss


    me, deeply at first, but then slowly, carefully, as if he was savoring every moment of being in my presenc


    been so tender, so sweet.


    I wanted more of him. I wanted all of him.


    But he stopped, and I was so disappointed. “I‘m sorry… I told


    you1 would give you time. I just couldn‘t help it.” He took a deep breath, and I could tell he was


    fighting back his desire.


    My face was still burning from the kiss, and I really wanted to tell him that he didn‘t need to….


    We both grew silent for a moment. Then I cleared my throat, “Um… would you like to see what I‘ve done


    Ethan smiled at me. “I‘m sure that everything you‘ve done is lovely.”


    I was excited to show Ethan the ce I‘de to call home.


    I led him into the nursery. “This is the baby‘s room,” I told him.


    “It looks great!” His eyes traveled over the fine


    cherry wood furniture I‘d picked out for our child, as well as the decorations on


    the walls and all of the books on the shelves. Then, he looked at the baby nket I‘d made


    that was draped over the side of the crib. “You made this, didn‘t you?”


    I felt a little shy about my handiwork. “I wanted the baby to have something from its mother.”

    Ethan smiled at me and pulled me close. “He or she is the luckiest baby in the


    whole world to have you as the mother.”


    I looked at him wide eyed, “He or she?”


    Ethan looked at me, all I could tell was tenderness in his eyes. “He or she, it doesn‘t matter.”


    Ethan said it didn‘t matter whether the baby was a boy or girl…he didn‘t care! I was so happy.


    My heart melted and tears welled up.


    His smooth palm caressed my cheek, and his warm, minty breath fanned across my


    face. Tingles of electricity


    prickled up my spine as I stared into his crystal clear eyes. I was totally lost in his gaze, and without eve


    heard myself ask, “Would you like me to show you the bedroom?”
