Chapter 62 Are You Sure Rosalie Is Dead?

**Talon‘s POV

I rejoined Ethan outside the meeting room after hearing out from the witness. Neither of us spoke until we got to Ethan‘s suite.

As he closed the door behind us, his look turned even more solemn.

“Alpha,” I began, “if it really is him working with the rogues, I‘m worried that our pack…”

Ethan walked over to the map. “Send Estrella back to Drogomor and tell Rex to reorganize our defenses back home. Move the residents from the outskirts back to the city center, and increase the patrol back home.”

“Are we not going back?”

“No. Rogue attacks are problems, but any alphas could deal with them, and they have been dealing with it. But the war against Kal is a military operation. If we lose it, we will lose more than just a few villages. My priority has to be on the west coast.”

“I understand,” I said with a sigh. “I‘m still worried about Drogomor. The rogues are taking advantage of the war. What if…”

“His target is me, and only me… I‘ll need to talk to James to move our men to the coast near the East Port, and we‘ll need to convince the other Alphas to guard t he rest of the coastal cities and deal with the scattered rogue attacks.”

“No! That‘s too risky! Then he would know you‘re there.”

“That‘s the point. I need him to come to me instead of us trying to find him. Also, if we lose the East Port, we may lose the war.”

A knock on the door interrupted our discussion. As far as I was aware, Ethan wasn‘t expecting anyone.

“Please open the door, Ethan.” It was the last voice either of us wanted to hear right now.

Madalynn.

She must have heard that the meeting in the war room was finished for the day. I was surprised she us ed the word “please.”

Ethan didn‘t say anything, but his expression was as cold as ice.

I sighed, and went to open the door. “How may I help you, Miss Madalynn?”

“Beta Talon, I wish to speak to Ethan.”

“Miss Madalynn, we are dealing with an urgent situation right now. I can relay to message to him–”

“I‘m his fiancée. Are you saying that I can’t even talk to him in person?” she snapped. “Also, it‘s none of your business what I need to speak with him about.”

Before I could stop her, she had already barged into the room.

“Ethan!” Madalynn exclaimed, seemingly very eager to see him. But he was clearly not in the mood to see her.

She turned back to me. “Talon, leave us.”

I didn‘t move, waiting for my Alpha‘s order.

Ethan looked up to her. I saw a dark look in his eyes. He didn’t mindlink me, but I didn‘t need it to know what a dangerous state he was in. I felt like I should stay in case I needed to pull my Alpha back from hurting his unwelcome visitor.

Madalynn wasn‘t happy that I didn‘t do what she asked. She sneered and hissed, “I am the future Luna and I have a private matter to talk to Ethan about. Talon, leave us.”

“There‘s nothing for you and me to discuss,” Ethan finally spoke up. His tone sounded as if he could kill someone right there.

Madalynn gave me a frustrated glare, then switched her attention back to Ethan.

Her tone softened immediately, and her eyes became moist. I was disgusted by the falseness of her total persona change in a manner of seconds.

“Ethan, please just hear me out. I promise it‘ll be quick.”

Ethan wasn‘t moved by her pleading tone or tear– filled eyes, but his silence was more than enough for Madalynn to proceed.

Madalynn‘s eyes flickered to me again as if she was waiting for something. She was more polite this time. “Talon, do you mind giving us some privacy?”

“Madalynn, whatever you have to say, you can say with Talon present,” Ethan interjected. “You have thr ee minutes.”

Madalynn glanced over at me a final time with displeasure. However, the flicker of anger passed quickly, and she returned to the solemn, upset e xpression she kept making at Ethan. She walked closer to him and took a couple deep breaths.

“Ethan, I just came to apologize for what happened the other day.”

This was the last thing I expected to hear from Madalynn.

Ethan didn‘t show any particular emotion on his face, but I knew he was as surprised as me.

“I’m very sorry for the way that I acted. It wasn’t very ladylike of me. It wasn‘t acceptable, and I don‘t wa nt you to think that I am incapable of doing the job that is intended for me as your future Luna.”

Ethan‘s gaze finally landed on Madalynn, and she took it as an invitation to go on with her speech.

“I was jealous. That was why I said the hurtful things I did before,” she continued.

As she spoke, she moved even closer to Ethan. Her arm reached out toward him, but he stepped back and avoided it.

“Ethan!” she exclaimed in annoyance as Ethan walked behind the desk.

T‘ve heard your apology,” he said with a nod. “If there‘s nothing else, you may leave now,” he added, di smissing her with an even tone.

Madalynn looked toward Ethan, wide– eyed, as if she couldn‘t believe he would cut the conversation so short. She wasn‘t done yet.

“Ethan, let me finish! It was just that Rosalie was so sweet, and everyone seemed so taken with her. I was

jealous of her, especially because she carried your child–”

“Enough Madalynn!” Ethan‘s reaction was much more intense this time.

“I know you cared about her, and I accept that.” Then she looked up to Ethan, and word by word, stress ed, “but she is in the past now! Rosalie is gone!”

Ethan‘s fists clenched, and I could see his chest moving up and down faster than usual.

No one had dared to mention Rosalie in front of Ethan for over a week now. Everyone knew his wishes, and I was quite sure Madalynn had gotten the word, too. Yet, she did it anyway, intentionally.

“Ethan! I know you‘re hurting, and I am too, watching you suffer like this. I feel sorry for her, but we need to move on, and I‘m here for you,”

The look on Ethan‘s face was terrifying even for me, and I knew I needed to step in before this conversation got any worse. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

I put myself between them, shielding Madalynn from Ethan‘s murderous gaze. “Miss Madalynn, I‘m ver y sorry to interrupt, but with everything going on, the Alpha does need to focus on the war effort.”

I quickly walked up to her, grabbing her by the shoulders and gently pulling her away. I needed to get her out before he exploded. “Please allow me to escort you back to your room.”

“Stay out of this, Talon. This is none of your business!” she snapped, glaring at me and pulling away.

“Leave now,” Ethan growled slowly.

He was trying his best to control his anger. If it wasn‘t for the alliance

“Leave? I‘m your fiancée.” She broke into tears. “Ethan, how could you do this to me? Do you know how heartbroken I fee you like this? I just want to love you and give you an heir!”

I frowned.

I looked towards Ethan. His brows furrowed, and his lips were pressed tightly against each other.

Madalynn was manipulative. She knew exactly when to test boundaries, and when to play the pity card.

However, seeing tears start to stream down Madalynn‘s face didn‘t soften Ethan. Instead, he had lost the last little bit of his patience.

“Madalynn, don‘t make me repeat myself a third time.”

Ethan wasn‘t moved at all by her acting, but Madalynn didn‘t seem to be too disappointed, It seemed as

She finally sighed and wiped away her tears. “Okay, Ethan. I understand that you need more time. I can

At that, she walked out the door,

Ethan and I looked at each other for a moment, but neither of us could pick up our earlier discussion fro where we left off,

Then I spotted a handkerchief on the floor. It was Madalynn‘s. Ethan‘s eye fell on it too, and he looked li

I figured it would be best to return it to her myself in case she found another excuse to come to his room

Without another word, I left the room and hurried down the hall, soon catching up with Madalynn and her lady‘s maid.

“Miss Madalynn, how could Alpha Ethan treat you like that!” the maid was saying. “It‘s so unfair! You are scolded!”

“Shut up! What do you know, stupid girl?”

Based on Madalynn‘s tone, I could hardly believe that she was crying pitifully only a couple minutes ago.

“Miss Madalynn, l just feel unworthy of you!” the maid mumbled.

Theard the sneer in Madalynn‘s voice as she said, “Ethan is mine. What can a dead woman do, anyway? I just need to be patient…”

The maid lowered her voice. “Miss Madalynn, are you sure Rosalie is dead?”

Upon hearing Rosalie‘s name, I quietened my footsteps and tried to get closer. Then I heard Madalynn‘s vicious response: “I know for a fact that she is!”

Rosalie jumping off the cliff wasn’t a secret, and most people in this castle had their own sources of information. But the way she said it just made me uneasy.

I really didn‘t want to interact with Madalynn any more today, so I let the handkerchief drop on the hallwa
