Chapter 18

Rosalie's POV

I woke before the sun had fully risen. For once, I didn’t need the servant’s knocking to rouse me.

I was already up, dressed, and brushing out my curls before she knocked.

Let it hurt. Let it heal. Then let it go.

Yesterday's incident still hurt, it was the first time someone considered me important enough to show a little effort then Daphne had to ruin it.

How was I going to apologize to Brad? I didn't even have the courage to face him.

"Ma'am" the servant's knock pulled me from my daze. Dropping the brush I straightened my back heading for the door.

As I stepped out, the servant's eyes widened a fraction before she bowed in greeting. "Good morning ma, looks like you didn't need my help, my apologies"

"No it's fine, thank you for everything, shall we?"

She nodded, walking ahead towards the dining area.

When I stepped into the dining hall, it was still early. The breakfast table was mostly empty, with a few omegas setting the plates.

    Rosalia's POVWas that a good or a bad thing?I couldn't tell when it came to him. It didn't even matter at that moment. Goosebumps flared across my skin, his gentle touch making me shiver.We stared into each other's eyes but they were one, it was like a reflection and all I did was mark him.A dark curiosity coiled in my mind, what would happen if he did the same?The bond had already been unbearable, but it was nothing compared to what I felt now.His body was in sync with mine. If I could hear his heartbeat, I was sure it beat in the same rhythm as mine.I saw everything, could feel his breath on me and his cologne wrapped around me, leaving my senses fogged and dangerously drawn in.We were lost in our own world, the touch might’ve lasted a minute, but we recognized the fire, the yearning desire, the bond of soulmates.I didn’t know what Nathan was about to say and honestly I didn't care. His hand lingered near my cheek, then he pulled it away like I burned him. Like scissors to

    Rosalia's POVThe scent hit me before my eyes fluttered open, and for a moment I forgot where I was. A blanket was wrapped on my shoulders, one that had a strong male scent which reminded me of his cologne.Then I remembered it was Brad's penthouse. I couldn't recall when I fell asleep but the spot next to me was empty.I snuggled deeper into the blanket with a quiet sigh, the kind that slips out when you’re safe and warm and don't want to move.A soft voice cut through the morning stillness.“Good morning, Rosalie.”I blinked up blearily, leaning forward I caught him on the counter next to the kitchen.Something smelled so goddamn delicious.Brad walked towards me and my eyes popped beneath the apron. He was shirtless, bathed in a subtle red glow from the rising sun reflecting off the tall windows. It painted a warm hue across his skin, his large frame somehow even more intimidating and handsome in the light. My throat tightened.It just wasn't what was in the kitchen that stirred

    Rosalia's POVMy eyes popped out at his utterance“You'll look good in a bunny suit!” he spoke again I blinked, staring at him, unsure if I heard correctly. It took all of three seconds before I realized…He was completely drunk.A startled chuckle escaped me, and I pressed a hand to my lips. “Brad… you’re wasted.”He squinted at me, one eye closing halfway. “You should join me.” I laughed, for real this time, and moved closer to steady him before he toppled over.“I love you too, Brad,” I whispered playfully, wrapping my arms around him, trying not to let the ache in my chest show. “Even if you smell like tequila and gin.”He melted into me, burying his face in my neck with a contented sigh. “You’re warm,” he mumbled. “Like a…a hot water bottle. But prettier.”I held him tightly, gently rubbing his back. I felt a pang of guilt deep in my ribs.Brad had been an amazing friend. In my eyes he was this perfect person but in the end we all had our own problems.And I hadn’t even seen it

    Rosalie’s POVIt was like a taste of heaven, subconsciously I knew I was a freak taking his blood but I couldn't stop, I drank greedily.Savouring his taste on my lips, my wolf purred within like we had been deprived for so long.My insides became warm and my body tingled, the sensation was so good a tear slipped down my eyelids.Then suddenly—Strong hands yanked me back.“No!” I growled, fighting against the pull, not even recognizing my own voice. But the spell’s haze began to lift. My vision snapped back into focus, the pain that had been searing my insides abruptly vanished. My body slumped against the chair, shuddering with a strange emptiness where the ache had lived seconds ago.I blinked hard.Nathan.He was standing there, one hand pressed to the side of his neck where blood still trickled. His brows drew together, mouth parted in disbelief. He looked from his fingers, smeared red, to me. Then slowly to the Seer.His jaw clenched. “What the hell did you do?” he hissed at her

    Rosalia's POV “I’m sure you know who this is Rosalia, the royal seer” he paused, noticing a figure next to her.Her face was hidden behind a cloak, I had my suspicions on who she was but I forced myself to remain unfazed.“You don't have to worry about her Alpha, she's someone I trust to help” the seer quickly clarified as the alpha gaze lingered."Make sure no one else finds out about this," Alpha Kincaid ordered.The Seer bowed deeply, her hands folded in front of her. “Your wish is my command, Alpha.”“I don't have much time, use any means necessary to ensure she gets her powers back.”My stomach twisted.The Seer glanced at me then her gaze unreadable. She stepped forward slowly, eyes narrowing as if she could see right through my skin.“Judging from her aura,” she said carefully, “her powers remain dormant. But I sense something. It's faint. I have something in mind… something drastic but I hope it will work.”Alpha Kincaid nodded. “As long as she's able to heal me I have no pro

    Rosalia's POV I leaned against the wall beside me, arms crossed, watching the hospital hallway like it might swallow us whole. His eyes flicked toward me, something unreadable behind them.“I’ve never seen a display like that before,” he said finally, voice low.I pulled my arms tighter around myself, still wired from the chaos. My heart hadn’t slowed since we got here. “It’s absurd,” I muttered. “That I had to go to such lengths just to help someone. She’s a person. Not a title. Not a rank. Just someone who needed help.”He didn’t say anything to that.His silence stretched until I looked up and met his eyes. He studied me again, like he was trying to solve a puzzle he didn’t quite understand. Then he straightened and pushed off the wall.“I have to leave,” he said. “I’ll get a driver to take you back. I know you’re not going anywhere while she’s still in there.”“No,” I said softly. “I’m not.”He nodded, like he expected that. “Alright. I’ll send someone soon.”“Thank you, Damon,”
