Alpha's Second Chance by Salani

Chapter 0201 ROSE

I woke up to the most delicious smell of eggs, cheese, vegetables, and some meat cooking. I got up and got dressed before I walked downstairs. I could hear Massimo and Pippa, but I could also hear another voice and see an older man sitting at the table and eating.

"Ah, Rose. Good morning. I hope you had a nice sleep," Pippa says, and the two men greet me as well.

"Good morning. I slept very well, thank you. Something smells delicious." I say and smile at her.

"Sit down; I will get you some Frittata," she says and smiles as I sit down.

"Rose, this is my father, Mate. He was the right hand and Beta to our old Alpha,” Massimo says and looks at his dad.

"Hello Princess, I remember when your dad called Antonio asking for help. A friend of your father had family in Antonio's territory. After a good talk, they made a deal. Your dad would provide help at any time Alpha Antonio asked for it. And the woman Mia would be denied to leave, for as long as it was needed, to protect you, his little daughter." Mateo said as I ate and listened to what he told me.

"Did you know her well?" I ask him, and he looks at me for a little.

"I didn't have much interaction with her myself. But she was around, and it was not always a good thing." Mateo says.

"Why?" I ask.

"She always tried getting close to the Alpha, and it didn't matter to her that he was mated." He says, and I sigh.

"Yeah, I sort of expected I would hear something like this. And let me say that anything you can tell me, please do. I know she is not a good person. I mean, she rejected me, her two-month-old baby." I say, looking down.

"I never heard that," Mateo says.
