Sold As The Alpha King’s Breeder Chapter 122


    Chapter 122 Ethan Did What?!


    **Soren’s POV


    *Ethan did what?!” I asked as my right-hand man came into my office.


    “Yes, sir, it’s in the headlines everywhere. ‘Royal Wedding Turns Into Judgment’ is the title of the article


    talking about it.’ Thomas said, “Gutsy move, I gotta say. He’s really not into that Madalynn, huh?” “Not


    funny!” I frowned, “Make sure Rosalie doesn’t know about it.”


    “Yes, boss.”


    “What else?”


    “Ethan went back to the frontline, and we lost three more bases at the coast.”


    “D*mn it,” I muttered under my breath. I needed to think of something. I wouldn’t let Ethan win this war.


    “What about the north?”


    “Not too bad, given thest batch actually arrived at the north before Ethan ambushed our supply


    vessels.”


    Ever since Ethan had left the ind, our line had been pushed back significantly. Whatever he’d


    managed to do, he’d done a hill of a job at it.


    I saw him pull out an envelope from his pocket. “Also, a letter for you. From Damian.” He held it out to


    me, and I took it, keeping my eyes on Thomas as I ripped the envelope open.

    My eyes quickly scanned the letter. It wasn’t too long, and there wasn’t much in the few brief


    paragraphs that I didn’ t already know, but Damian was keeping me abreast of what was going on in


    the capital, as he should be.


    “Anything important?” Thomas asked me as I ripped the letter into tiny bits and tossed it into the trash


    can so it couldn’t be read by anyone else.


    “Yes and no. Ethan is bing difficult to deal with. Apparently, he’s getting a bit arrogant, thanks to


    his victories in the war effort ofte,” I told him as I opened my desk drawer and pulled out a piece of


    paper in order to respond to Damien.


    This letter writing was getting old. I cursed Ethan again for cutting our lines ofmunication.


    I looked up at Thomas and pressed my lips together, irritated. “We must prevent him from getting too


    much of a big head.”


    “Got it. We have been speeding up our n, boss.”


    “Good. Also, news about the queen.”


    Thomas thought for a minute and asked, “Are we going to let Damian know what we found out about


    Rosalie?”


    I tipped my head to look at Thomas. I answered, “No. I don’t want any trouble right now.”


    Quickly, I fred off a response.


    I had to be discreet, but I hoped Damian would be able to decipher that I may have an answer for him


    regarding his inquiry for the queen,


    Just as I was cing the letter into the envelope, I heard amotion outside of my office door. I


    finished addressing the envelope and handed it to Thomas as there was a knock on my door,


    “What is it? I asked, curious as to what all the noise could be about.


    “Sir, you’re being summoned to Miss Ro’s house at once,” the staff member said, “Apparently, she’s


    just given birth.


    I stood. “Just given birth?” I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. “Already?”


    He only shrugged. “I’m only repeating what I was told, sir.” ;


    I looked at Thomas who was just as bbergasted as I was.


    “Why didn’t anyone call me?”


    Of course, he wouldn’t answer that.


    ISWE


    I rushed past him to the door, wondering what in the world had happened. Did Rosalie truly give birth


    already, so quickly, and I’d missed it? I had imagined there was a possibility I might not be there if she


    had the baby while I was away, but I’d been at home all day, working in my office.


    Rushing outside, I instructed the driver to hurry to her house at once, and Thomas and I got inside of


    the car.


    My heart was beating out of my chest, and I could feel beads of perspiration dotting my upper lip.


    “Are you all right, boss?” Thomas asked me. “You look… nervous.”


    nervou


    “I’m fine,” I told him, but it wasn’t true. A thousand thoughts invaded my mind.


    My first concern was for Rosalie. Was she okay? Was she in any pain? Had she had anyplications


    when she had the child?


    And what about the baby? Was the baby all right? Was it a boy or a girl?


    I tried to picture Rosalie with her baby in her arms and how happy she must be; it brought a smile to my


    face.


    Until Thomas tapped me in the shoe with his foot. “This is a business arrangement, is it not, boss?” he


    asked me. “You are keeping her here because she is your half-brother’s breeder, and that baby is his


    child?”


    I turned to look at him and red. “Yes, of course,” I said, but I wanted to hurt him.


    Why couldn’t it be more than that? Why couldn’t I keep Rosalie and her child because they had once


    belonged to Ethan and also have feelings for them?


    After all, it would certainly be all the sweeter to hear that little baby call me Dada knowing that it was


    Ethan who was meant to be raising the babe.


    And it would certainly be all the sweeter to hear her moan my name in pleasure knowing it was him


    who was missing out on such a beautiful, exceptional woman….


    We pulled to a stop in front of the house, and I got out, trying to control my urge to run to the front door.


    Thomas was right. I did have “business” to attend to, and I needed to keep a level head.


    Right… about Rosalie, I still needed to confirm something, and now was the perfect time to collect


    some of it.


    The curtains billowed through the open living room window. I knocked on the door, and we waited on


    the front porch to be let in.


    “When we get in there, pull the doctor aside and tell him I want a blood sample collected from Rosalie,”


    I told Thomas, keeping my voice low. “I don’t care what excuse he uses. Tell him to think of something,


    but get the sample. Understand?”


    “Yes, sir,” Thomas said in the voice he uses when he knows something is vitally important.


    It seemed to take forever for the door to open, but eventually, Seraphine pulled it open, looking


    haggard. She didn’t even smile at us.


    “Hello,” she said. “She’s resting right now. I’m not sure if it’s a good idea for you to see her, Mr. Soren.”


    “Oh, that’s too bad,” I said, “I was hoping to congratte her and see the baby. Is everything all right?”


    “It is now,” The midwife shrugged, her attitude suddenly less enthusiastic. “It was difficult, but Rosalie


    has made a splendid recovery. For a while, we thought we may have some problems, but she is a


    fighter, and she is fine now.”


    I understood she wouldn’t tell me anything else. “Do you think she’ll be okay now?”


    Seraphine nodded. “Yes, sir, I do. But she is tired and needs some time with her child. The doctor is


    just in the other room, though, if you’d like to speak to him.”


    “If she had a difficult birth, why wasn’t I called sooner?” I asked, trying not to get angry at the midwife. It


    didn’t matter now, as long as Rosalie was all right.


    Seraphine took a deep breath and blew it out. “I did as Miss Rosalie instructed. She didn’t want me to


    call until after the baby was born. Having a baby isn’t exactly something one needs an audience for.”


    She had a point there. I nodded and took a few steps away from her as Thomas went around me. I


    knew where he was going, to speak to the doctor. Seraphine’s eyes followed him. It probably looked


    suspicious. I needed to distract her.


    “Was it a boy or a girl?” I asked her, keeping my voice gentle and calm as I waited for her answer,


    “She gave birth to a strong, healthy baby boy,” she replied. Then she added, “So… you can be sure


    you’re taking away the heir to the kingdom for certain now.”


    I stared at her for a moment, wondering what that was supposed to mean. Had I lost Seraphine’s


    confidence? Surely not.


    “Seraphine, you know how much I care about Rosalie, don’t you?” Did she know? Was she aware that


    this wasn’t. just some sort of a military scheme for me anymore, or did she think I was still doing this


    just to get back at Ethan?


    Seraphine smiled. “Of course I do. I was congratting you, Mr. Soren.” She smiled, but I couldn’t tell if


    it was genuine or not.


    “I’m going to go speak to the doctor and see if there’s anything Rosalie needs,” I told her.


    Seraphine nodded and walked over to the window, I assumed to get some fresh air.


    When I went back to the hallway near Rosalie’s room, I saw that the doctor had a vial of blood in his


    hand. He gave it to Thomas, who slipped it into his jacket pocket.


    I couldn’t help but smile. Everything wasing together.


    Not only were Rosalie and her child the most effective weapons that I could use to ruin my half-brother


    once and for all, but also I’d found they bore the precious ancient royal blood.


    Most importantly, this beautiful woman was here with me, and so was his child.


    Business arrangement or not, I had to admit to myself that I cared about them both-and I was never


    going to let either one of them go.
