Sold as the Alpha King’s Breeder

Chapter 129 Someone Was Looking For You

**Rosalie’s POV

The crisp morning air brushed gently against my skin.

As we moved north, I could feel the temperature had dropped along the way. The plants in view also

changed from tropical trees to pines.

Our destination, the northern territory.

I wasn’t sure where we were on our journey, but Seraphine was confident.

I didn’t know whether it was wise to trust Seraphine again. At least, among Ethan, Soren, and Seraphine,

she was the only one who came forward proactively and told me the truth.

The brothers, on the other hand, neither of them had been completely truthful with me to this day.

Seraphine seemed to know the directions clearly, however, going in the right direction wasn’t our biggest

concern.

You’re positive that this is going to be safe?” The question was one I had asked multiple times, and with

a sigh, she turned to look at me.

“It will be dangerous, but we are near a turnoff.” Seraphine looked me in the eyes. “Would you like me to

hold the baby?

I shook my head. At least the little one seemed to be excited about the journey. His bright blue eyes

seemed to be amazed by the scenery along the way. Just looking at him gave me strength.

Seraphine sighed, “Once we reach the small town, you and the babe can rest for the night.”

Rest sounded amazing in the moment, and as my eyes gazed down at the baby at my chest. I couldn’t

help but smile. Never had I felt such love until the day he was born. It wasn’t earned, but unconditional.

The love between mother and child was like nothing I could have ever dreamed of.

“This way…” Seraphine replied softly as we trudged closer towards a broken down wooden bridge in the

distance.

1 glanced around at the area. Crossing the bridge would leave us out in view of anyone who was nearby.

“Unfortunately, it‘s not the safest to expose ourselves, but we have to cross the bridge.” Her eyes gazed

out from our hidden spot to the road, looking around for any sign of trouble. “We‘ve come this far.

Hopefully, that means we’ve lost Soren’s men. The only thing I would be concerned with is rogues, but

even then they come out more at night.”

I nodded my head.

“Quickly, we must go,” Seraphine urged, as she moved from the shadows of the brush to the open road

to cross the bridge. My feet followed quickly behind hers.

As we stepped onto the wooden bridge, I heard the squeaky sound of the boards accompanying our

steps. I prayed to the moon goddess that no one was around to hear the noise. However, things

sometimes just wouldn’t go as well as 1 hoped.

“Seraphine–” I whispered, listening to the distant voices of men. “Someone’s coming.”

Running towards the tree line, we made cover in the shadows, listening and waiting to see who it was

that was coming. With the war on approach, there were warriors everywhere, and on top of those

warriors were the rogues.

The rogues were said to be vicious and unforgiving in their venture to wreak havoc in the north.

Vens “Stay here. * Seraphine whispered, “11 see if i can get a better view of what we me dealing with ”

Nodding my head, I watched her figure move through the busheg, and before long. I watched her back

gtifter, and then she turned around to face me,

“We have to find a way out… It’s Soren’s men,” she whispered.

My heart felt as if it dropped into my stomach upon hearing Seraphine’s words,

I thought we had escaped, but Soren was more persistent than we expected. Why wouldn’t he just let me

go?

Seraphine thought over the situation for a moment and said firmly, “I will lead them away.”

“No, you can’t…” 1 gasped. “If they catch you-”

“They won’t. You must trust an old lady to know what she is doing.”

Hesitation filled me while I was thinking over her plan. She patted my hand and assured me, ‘I promise, I

know them way better than they think. I’ll be fine.”

“Be careful then.” I knew I had to agree and trust Seraphine. All the way here, she’d proven she was

more capable than I had thought. I remembered Seraphine told me that she traveled a lot, and it seemed

that she had a lot of experiences blending herself into crowds and disappearing from the eyes that were

searching for her.

“When and where should I meet up with you then?” I asked.

A kind, soft smile passed over her face as she reached up and lightly patted the side of my cheek. “I

won’t be gone long. Go up the road and take the right fork. I will lead Soren’s men down to the left. Go to

the inn, and I will find you there.

I nodded to show that I understood. “Okay, Seraphine. Please, please be careful, and I‘ll see you at the

inn.” After all, I still saw her as a friend, and I wouldn’t want anything bad to happen to her.

However, before she took off, she added, “If I don‘t return to you by tomorrow morning, then I want you to

follow every direction I have written on this piece of paper for you. Someone else can take you the rest of

the way. You would just have to get to that village.”

I didn‘t like the way she said it. It felt like this was goodbye. I shook my head, “No, I‘d rather wait for

you.”

“Listen to me. Even if I am late, it doesn‘t necessarily mean that they got me. I may just need a little more

time to get rid of them. But you shouldn’t wait there because they can catch up quickly. Trust me, I’ll be

fine.”

Finally, I reluctantly agreed to let her do what she needed to do.

My hands wrapped around my baby, protecting him from the unforeseeable danger that was lurking

nearby.

“Be safe, Seraphine.”

“Oh, dear. Don’t you worry about me,” she chuckled. “I have been doing this since long before you were

born.”

As the words left her mouth, I watched as she took off through the foliage and made her way up the road

and down the left path. The men passed my hidden position without even a glance in my direction.

A heavy sigh left my mouth as I realized that I had gone unnoticed.

I rocked my boy a couple more times and watched him start to doze off. I whispered as my lips kissed his

tiny forehead, “Let’s get you somewhere safe.”

After taking another moment, I pushed from my hiding place. I moved along the tree line and tried to hide

my tracks as much as I could. Finally, when a distant village came into view, I let out a breath of relief.

I moved quicker towards the village seeking the inn that Seraphine had told me about. It was a tall

building with thatched roofing and white walls.

The inn was busy, which was good. My arrival didn’t draw much attention. With the amount of guests that

stayed here,

# was easier for me to blend in

The friendly staff didn‘t even ask me any questions. The moment the woman behind the counter saw me,

she showed me the way to my room, as if she was expecting me.

The room wasn’t lavish, but it was safe and comforting for me and the baby. There was even a crib. I was

amazed by how thoroughly Seraphine had arranged everything

“Thank you for showing me the room!” i handed a tip to the staff member.

“Oh, that’s so kind of you. Thank you for your generosity, mine!” She was grateful.

It wasn’t easy to continue running in a place like this during war time. The inn helped numerous people,

including me, and they deserved to be appreciated.

After the door behind me clicked, I felt a sense of security. Placing down the bag on the chair, 1 dragged

my sweet boy from my chest, and laid him in the crib. My boy was fast asleep with his tiny body

swaddled.

I decided to take a nice warm shower while he was asleep. After a couple of long days on the run, it felt

good to be clean.

When I came out from the shower, it was as if the baby knew I was ready for him. The little peanut was

also awake. Therefore, he was treated with a fun bubble bath before his meal.

It was getting dark outside, and I was finally able to put him back into the crib after I saw a yawn from

him. Then I laid down on the bed, watching his sweet face.

He was the picture of perfection. Everything I did, I did for him. To give him the life he deserved. I wanted

him to have a normal and peaceful life, but day after day, I realized that normal might not be what he was

born for. There would always be someone who wanted him, or someone who wanted to use him.

The only thing I could do as his mother was to protect him, love him, and raise him to be a good man.

Finally, I drifted off to sleep, preparing myself for the next day to come.

I was woken up by a soft knock at my door.

Seraphine was here!

I rushed to open the door but was disappointed to find that it wasn’t Seraphine. It was the staff member

from earlier.

“Miss,” she whispered, “I was sent here to warn you.”

I felt a knot in my stomach. Immediately, my sleepiness dissipated, and I was wide awake. “What

happened?” I asked.

“Someone was looking for you. They’ve entered the village, and it won’t take long for them to get here.”

My heart leaped from my chest.

Were those Soren’s men? If so, what happened to Seraphine?!

“What’s the fastest way for me to get out of the village?” I asked firmly as I strode over to my son and

placed him back into the harness on my chest. I grabbed the backpack and slung it back onto my

shoulders.

“To the east, miss. Here’s the map.”

Not wasting another moment, I made my escape again. I looked out of the window, and from a distance,

I saw a truck at the end of the road.

I knew that whoever that was that had come after us, they came for my son. I was just a breeder, a

nobody. However, my little boy, he was the future of this kingdom, the hidden prospective ruler who could

change the fate of this country if he wanted to.

But I would never allow anyone to take advantage of him. I’d do anything to protect him.

This way, miss. Follow me! There’s a cottage in the woods you could use before the night ends.” She led

the way, and I followed immediately.

No time to think more. They were almost here.

I had to go. Now!
