Sould As The Alpha King's Breeder

Chapter 38: The Reaper Takes All Forms
“I want you, Rosalie.” Ethan‘s soft whisper wrapped around me as we lay tangled within the sheets, our
bodies molding together in heated passion. “Don‘t leave me,” i begged him. Over and over again, he made me come undone aro
und him. The feeling of him sliding in and out of me
made my mind spiral. I wanted him, all of him, always. His hands brushing over my bare skin sent shivers through my body. “You
are mine forever, Rosalie–
and I am forever yours.” His declaration made the love I have for him grow. I knew there was no way that I would ever get over t
he way he made me feel.
Yet as the passion grew between us, he suddenly felt so far away. His body was sliding away from me, leaving me with an empty
feeling inside. “Ethan?” My panic–
filled voice drifted in an endless sea of darkness, and the sound of whispers was drawing me out of that place of lust and desire
until, finally, my eyes opened. A groan of disappointment left my lips as I rolled over, facing the partially–
cracked bedroom door. I had been
dreaming, and it had been more than an amazing dream. Everything that had happened was something I wished deep down wo
uld come true, but I knew better than to get my hopes up.
“What are you going to do?” A voice from the living room caught my attention, and I knew right away who it belonged to–
Talon. “It‘s complicated,” Ethan‘s voice replied. “Nothing has changed, Talon.” Talon sighed. “You can‘t seriously be wanting to g
o through with it, Ethan.” “Will you keep it down? Rosalie is sleeping.” Ethan replied in a harsh tone. I knew that, whatever they w
ere discussing, I wasn‘t supposed to be listening to it. Unfortunately, they sometimes seemed to forget that I bore Alpha blood. M
y senses were quite sharp– especially when it came to sound. “I‘m sorry, but things have changed since Rosalie came
to us. We all care about her... even you.” “Don‘t assume you know how I feel, Beta.” Ethan‘s rough voice replied, and it was obvi
ous he was growing irritated. “This is about the baby.”
“Just about the baby?” Talon protested quietly. “Come on. I have known you since we were boys, and we both know that isn‘t tru
e.”
“It doesn‘t matter what you think you know, Talon.” Ethan repeated clearly, and then their whispers softened even more to
the point that I had a hard time hearing them.
I couldn‘t help but feel curious, and then scared, about what they were talking about. Did Ethan care about me? I had noticed a c
hange with him since we came to the capitol, and especially since he found out I was pregnant. I wanted

more than anything for the dream I had just lived to come true... to have Ethan accept me as more than just his breeder
I felt hope building within me that there was a possibility he would finally be willing to admit that he cared for me –
perhaps even loved me.
“Ethan, please... don‘t do this,” I heard Talon say once again, and I didn‘t like the way that panic rose in his voice.
“I have to marry Madalynn. As much
as I wish that wasn‘t so. James has given me a clear order, and I am going to obey it. His mate can not have children, and my ch
ild will be the heir to the throne one day. I have to have à respectable
Luna, Talon.” Hearing Ethan say that he didn‘t think I was respectable cut deep into me. I came from a royal bloodline. My mothe
r‘s family were
from the old world, and even though I was the last of their line, I still was an Alpha‘s daughter. Regardless of how I had come to
Ethan. The one problem was: no
one knew of my mothers bloodline. It had been kept a secret for so long, because of the tales of horrible things people did to her
family generations ago. I didn‘t know all of the details, and she died before I could figure everything out. The only thing I knew for
sure was that we were supposed to be special in some way. “Rosalie is an Alpha‘s daughter. She would be a suitable match.” Ta
lon was arguing with his Alpha for me, and I didn‘t want him to. If he wasn‘t careful, Ethan would lose his temper, and he could be
punished for the things he was saying, for trying to assert that Ethan was wrong. That was a big “no” in any werewolf pack. You
never questioned your Alpha. “Beta, you need to watch how you speak to me. You knew what the plan was when she came to us
, and you need to remember our conversations then. I told you not to get close to her like you did, and you and your sister will ha
ve to deal with the consequences of that when she is gone.” Again, Ethan‘s words broke my heart. Slowly, tears began to flow do
wn my face as I
listened to the two men arguing. I didn‘t want to believe that, after everything Ethan and I had gone through, he would still want t
o get rid of me. And yet, evidently, I was nothing but a convenience to him. Someone to carry his child–
and when I was done, I would be cast aside. “I‘m sorry, Alpha...” Talon was saying, struggling to speak. “But I don‘t agree with th
e plan.” “It
isn‘t for you to agree with!” Ethan yelled. “You just need to execute it.” If they had not been in such a heated argument, they woul
d have known I was awake. I didn‘t want them to know, and as I
laid back on my pillow, I let the tears fall from my eyes down my cheeks, soaking the pillow behind my
He didn‘t care about me, after all.

I was nothing to him. “So after everything... all the feelings you have for her... you are still going to ignore and deny them. And w
hen she has the baby, you will continue with what you planned to do. The mother of your child... You‘re going to go through with i
t.”
Talon‘s defeated response caught my attention, and I tried to hold back the sob that was threatening to break free.
“Yes, Talon.”
Ethan‘s voice was so low, but I still heard the rest of the sentence. The sentence that would forever haunt me.
“Find a way to make her go peacefully.” Ethan‘s words sent a cold stab of hurt straight to my heart, and my
eyes widened. What did he say? What did he mean?! Fear and panic filled me and my hands slapped across my mouth to hold ba

I was such a fool!
“Why?” I cried out as my knees buckled beneath me, and I slid to the floor against the bedroom door. “What did I
There was
no one there to answer my questions, and I felt more alone in that moment than I ever had. Did that mean that everything was
a lie? Did Vicky and Georgia know about this, too? Were my friendships with them all fake? Estrella.. My doctor and confidant... D
Talon had known the entire time! The man I trusted with my life knew that Ethan was going to kill me, and he never said anything
