All Chapters of The Alpha's Rose: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

TYSONAfter breakfast, we load up and head to Cain’s pack for our evaluation visit. That is what this is, an evaluation on whether or not we want to treaty with him. Rose is heavily leaning toward a yes, while I am still on the fence, wanting to see what they actually need before I decide. Thomas is an emphatic ‘no’ and he wanted Melinda to reject Cain for using Maddie as a bargaining chip. Niall is ambivalent and solely focused on the mission of preparing his warriors to get Maddie back. 'The rest of this is just fluff.' His words, not mine.I decide to leave both Thomas and Niall at the pack to keep things running and safe while we are gone. Thomas is livid that I won't allow him to come with us so he can scope out Melinda’s new pack. Knowing Thomas, he would be a little confrontational while on Pine Woods’ pack lands and I can’t have that from my Beta, despite him being overprotective of Melinda. Just because he doesn’t approve of his twin’s mate’s actions, doesn’t give him the righ

MADDIEAfter I get angry and storm out on Luna Odette, I head to the packhouse kitchen and grab me some apple juice. It is Mama’s favorite right now, or it was her favorite when I was taken. It makes me feel a little closer to her right now. I miss her so much. I hope she is okay.I sip on my glass, deep in thought, as I watch the kitchen Omegas bustling about and preparing lunch. Today looks to be simple sandwich wraps. No one seems to be nervous about my being in here. I like that they aren’t nervous around me, even if I am the Alpha heir.“Head Omega Bette, may I help?” I ask. I miss helping in the kitchen. All the workers freeze to look at me. “What? Did I say something wrong?”Bette approaches me and I can feel her fear. “Alpha Madison, thank you for the offer, but we cannot allow that. Alpha Kent would be very upset if he came in here and saw you doing kitchen chores. We… we would be punished for it.” She says the last on a whisper and I sigh.“I understand. I’m sorry. I don’t wa

TYSONDamn this week has gone by slowly! Rose and I have gotten plenty of things done, but as the days have progressed, the anxiety in the air has been stifling. Rose has taken to pacing her office when she’s not occupied with work or school. She’s worrying about the rescue mission, coming up with numerous scenarios where things can go wrong. I have to constantly reassure her that our warriors know what they are doing. This isn’t our first rodeo.Plus, she’s pregnant and the extra stress isn’t helping her. Telling her these things doesn’t seem to help, but my touch always regulates her heart rate, breathing and blood pressure. So, I’ve been putting the mate bond to good use this week, trying to keep Rose calm.The day after we went to visit Pine Woods, I received an email from Luna Odette, Kent’s mate. I was shocked to see it in my inbox, not to mention a little hesitant about reading it. When I did, I think my eyes bugged out of my head a bit. I cannot believe that she is choosing to

ROSEDawn comes both too quickly and not fast enough for my liking. I don’t want Tyson to have to leave this morning. I want him to stay safe in our bed while I enjoy his warmth on my body.But I need my baby back. Maddie needs to come home to me, to our new amazing life here in River View. To be among people who are like her, who will love her, accept her, and respect her. I know she has found a little niche there at both Blue Meadow and Pine Woods, but this is her home and where she belongs until she is old enough to accept her birthright and lead her pack, should she want it. She deserves an actual childhood, and that is not what she is getting with Kent.I’ve watched all the videos Sullivan and his team have sent over. The Maddie in those videos isn’t the Maddie that I know and have raised for seven years. She is a mini adult, being strong and brave like I told her to. But she shouldn’t have to be, no matter what her future holds.Tyson does his best to distract me from my fear and

MADDIEBeta Paul walks me down to the dungeon and places me in a cell. He turns and locks it up, then opens the cell across from mine. Inside is Kevin. He’s secured with silver cuffs up against the wall, his arms pulled out tight to his sides against the cinderblocks. He’s already got bruises forming on his face and torso and blood dripping down to the floor. Little blood puddles have formed under him. He looks up at me with sadness in his eyes and I know, with that one look, he told them about my involvement. I thought I had kept it quiet from him, but I guess he figured some things out. My guess though, they forced him under Alpha or Beta command. He hates the ranked males in Blue Meadow. He wouldn’t tell them poop without being commanded.“Your little lap dog here spilled his guts. Told us all about your's and Luna’s plans to stage a coup.” Beta Paul sneers at me.“Uh huh, sure he did.” I answer back as I look around at my cell and the whole of the dungeon. Disinterest clear on my
