Chapter 195 Ethan And Rosalie Finally Met Again
“Alpha! They are back!” Vicky ran into my room to inform me as I was catching up with Paul and Richard.
I nodded to acknowledge the news. “Okay.” Then I turned to Paul and Richard. “You said Kal was forcing the citizens to fight for him?”
Vicky stood there, dumbfounded.
Then she winked at Paul. Paul then excused himself while Richard said that he wanted to take a break.
I pushed myself up from the desk and thought it would be helpful for me to take a walk to clear my mind.
However, before I knew it, I was in front of Rosalie’s room. I could smell her flowery sweet scent, and I couldn’t be more familiar with the pull that made me long for her. She was inside, behind a thin door, and yet, it felt like my arm weighed a thousand pounds and I couldn’t lift it up to knock.
As I was battling internally, the door opened,
And she was standing in front of me, holding our wonderful son.
It was as unreal and beautiful as a dream.
My heart hammered in my chest, and I debated what to do.
Her long white hair was tied up in a ponytail, and she looked like a sharp and experienced warrior, yet I could tell she was still a kind and gentle person inside.
It might not have been many days since I’d seen her last, but I felt I hadn’t seen her in centuries.
After all, each of us had died once.
I knew she would have a lot to catch up on, but I selfishly wanted some time alone with her.
I wanted to tell her so much how much she meant to me. How I’d felt when I thought I wouldn’t be able to see her ever again. How I hoped that we could be together forever to raise our child.
But then.. a lot of other memories flooded my mind.
When I was a rogue, I’d held her against her will. Before that, I’d lied to her from her son.
and I’d even planned to kill her and take her away
She was kind enough to keep me alive and bring me back to life, but how could I burden her more with my feelings after I’d treated her so poorly in the past?
No, now was not a time to confess my feelings and try to plan a peaceful future with my mate.
In fact, now wasn’t even a good time for me to remind her that I’d marked her and that we were mates.
I needed to be patient. Maybe step one was to make her feel comfortable around me.
“Hi, Rosalie,” I managed to say.
“Ah, hi, Ethan.” She seemed a bit nervous as well. “I’m glad that you are up and about.”

“Um… thank you for saving my life.”
Rosalie shook her head. “No, thank you for making that sacrifice for me first,” she said. As if it wasn’t a big deal, she added, “I guess we’re even now.”
I replied softly, “You really didn’t need to. It was too dangerous…”
She grimaced, as if a sharp pain hit her right in the heart at my words.
“…but I am grateful that you brought me back. Thank you again,” I continued.

I was grateful that I got to see her again, be able to hear her voice, and have a conversation like this. Her beautiful eyes were locked on me, and I wanted so badly for her to know that I loved her enough to die for her. But I wasn’t sure how she could take it at the moment. I had to remind myself to take it slow.
“You’re welcome, Ethan.” Rosalie nodded her head and smiled, but her smile seemed bitter.
She lifted her head, and when her gaze met mine, a question slipped from my lips. “Why did you do that?”
Was it because she might have a spot for me in her heart?
She froze, and took a moment to respond flatly, “Because the boy needs his father back… Here, you want to hold him?”
Her words stung.
But what else did I expect? After so many things happening in our lives, how could I still expect that she had feelings for me and wanted me in her life?
When I took my son in my arms and held him tightly though, all I had left in my heart was gratitude. What more could I ask for?
I was here, alive, talking to the love of my life and kissing our baby, who laughed with glee before he reached up and patted my face.
Anything else in life was just icing on the cake. I should not have been greedy and should have just been content with what I already had.
Rowan was still wearing the special bracelet I had given him. I pinched his chubby cheek, holding him tightly. I glanced over and saw that Rosalie’s eyes seemed to be moist.
Then we seemed to have exhausted our topics.
I cleared my throat, trying to find something else to say. “Paul and Richard caught me up on the spy issue.”
“Yes, a man named Marcus. He was with a group of citizens who had met you before. A seer named Gayla and people from her village,” she said to give me more details.
I let out a breath inwardly. The conversation was much easier when it was about work.
Then she continued, “So of course, my trip to pick the Moonlight Lily wasn’t a secret, especially when Madalynn found out that she could use it to help Behar.”
“Moonlight Lily?” I repeated.
“Yes?” She was a bit puzzled at why I said that and then she chuckled, “If you heard from Soren, that flower may have a few other nicknames.”
Idiot Soren, I cursed, but I focused back on the priorities.
“Gayla and the villagers are here?” I pondered. “Did James lose that territory to Kal?”
Rosalie nodded. “Yes, unfortunately.”
Again, I nodded. Now, I could see she wasn’t about to start our love affair over. She was all business.
“Your Majesty, welcome back.” Cerina’s voice echoed from down the hallway, causing both Rosalie and me to turn to her.
“You had asked us to hold the spy until you return. What would you like us to do with him?” Cerina said with a bow.
“Bring him over to the hall,” Rosalie instructed and turned to me, and Alpha Ethan, would you like to join us too?”
*My pleasure,” I replied. My eyes were narrowed. I had plenty to say to this Marcus.
“You can give the baby to…” Rosalie said.
I blew out a breath slowly and looked her in the eye. “No, I think it’s fine for he to join his parents.”
Rosalie seemed to be surprised by what I said, and she looked away. However, I swore I saw a hint of pink in her face.
We met the rest of the group in the meeting hall. Marcus’s wrists and ankles were shackled. He had a defiant look on his face as he scowled at Rosalie, who was sitting in her throne; she looked divine and graceful.
I decided to remain silent and let Rosalie handle the situation.
“Your name is Marcus?” Rosalie asked. Her voice was calm.
The man sneered, but he didn’t answer her question. Instead, he stated, “You’re going to waste your time on me. Why don’t you just kill me?”
“Because I have some questions for you,” Rosalie did not seem to be offended by Marcus’s attitude and she maintained her tone.
“Ha, go f*ck yourself! I’m not going to tell you a thing!”
“How dare you!” Jace was about to beat up Marcus when Rosalie ordered, Jace, stop.”
“But, he’s so disrespectful, Your Majesty!”
“Jace, it’s an order.” Rosalie nodded to Jace as he stepped back in line.
