Sold as the Alpha King’s Breeder

Chapter 57 Making A New Friend

**Rosalie‘s POV

A small jolt woke me from my sleep.

When I sat up, I quickly realized the boat

was swaying from side to side, leaving the most uncomfortable feeling in my stomach.

Thad known that I would most likely get seasickness, but I had hoped I would be one of

the fortunate ones who didn‘t.

“Uhh…” | groaned, walking towards the bathroom.

Splashing some water

on my face, I tried to sweep away the grime of my previous adventures, hoping it would draw the sicknes

s away from me. But even though it disappeared for a moment, as soon as I stepped back out into the ro

om, it was back in full force.

I tried with all my might to remember things I had read in one of my many books

to help get through this, but no matter what I did, it wouldn‘t ease up.

Deciding on getting some fresh air, 1 tied my hair up into a ponytail and

put on casual clothing, including a chunky knit sweater.

Before I headed to the deck, I also put on my dark sunglasses to try to hide my appearance more. I knew

that I was safe, but there was no harm in being extra discrete about it all.

The sun was

slowly rising again, and I quickly realized that I had slept for a very long time. Being pregnant, I was usua

lly tired a lot regardless, but the escape must have taken a lot out of me for me to shut down like that.

As a series of particularly big waves rocked the ship, I stumbled and almost lost my balance.

As I swayed and desperately try to regain my footing, the people around me

stepped back. I could fully understand not wanting to be near

a pregnant woman who was likely to vomit, but at the same time, it was a clear reminder that I was

on my own now.

Luckily, I was able

to grab the nearby railing as I began dry heaving as the smell of sea air whipped me in the face.

“Are you okay, miss?” a soft voice called out from behind me. I felt warm hands on my

arms and back, helping me regain my footing,

I turned around slowly, trying not to upset my stomach, and saw a middle–

aged woman with jade green eyes and a soft smile. She looked very friendly. Maybe it was because of h

er smile,,or maybe just because I was so dizzy–but I somehow almost mistook her for my long–

dead mother.

“I am

sorry. I think I‘m seasick…

As much as I tried to maintain

a smile upon my face, it was short lived. I was spinning around once more and started dry heaving, I coul

dn‘t control tears streaming down my face due to the emotional rush.

“Oh, dear, that isn‘t good.” She moved closer with a concerned look. “Here, let me help you sit down.”

After a few moments, I was finally able to speak with a weak voice. “Thank you so much **”

“You‘re welcome! First time on a boat?”

I nodded. “Yes… and it doesn‘t help that this child gives me nausea as well.”

Her eyes darted down to my stomach, and her mouth formed into an 0. “That is wonderful. Congratulatio

ns on your coming arrival–

but if that‘s the case, it‘s probably not the best to stay on the windy deck. Let me help you get inside.”

Nodding my head, I looked at her with appreciation and took her hand.

We walked through the double doors of the cabin together, and she quickly found me a quiet spot.

“Lie down, my dear.” She took two pillows and

propped one under my head and another under my feet. “I will be right back.”

I nodded again and closed my eyes. I took small, slow breaths trying to steady my racing heart

and also prevent myself from dry heaving again.

It didn‘t take long before she came back into view, holding a bag.

“I got you a few things to help. We have to get you calmed down so you can eat and feed that baby of yo

urs,” she said as she laid the cool cloth upon my head. “Keep those eyes closed and focus on your breat

hing.”

“Thank you.” I took her advice and kept my eyes closed. “I‘m sorry. I didn‘t mean to take up so much of y

our time or be a burden.”

“Don‘t worry about it, my dear. It‘s not like we have tons to do on the boat, anyway. My life is about

helping young mothers waiting on their unborn children. I am a midwife, after all.”

Topened my eyes and met her soft gaze. She reminded me of Estrella–

considerate, kind hearted, and very patient with those under their care.

Thad only been away from the Drogomor pack for a couple days, but it felt like centuries.

“It is still very kind of you to help me,” I said, inwardly thanking the Moon Goddess for bringing this wond

erful woman to me. “You didn‘t have to do any of that.”

“Think nothing more of it. You are the same age as my younger sister. She is also with child, and I hope t

hat, if she were in your situation, someone would help her the way I am for you.”

Smiling, she pulled out a green apple. “Try this. They‘re good for seasickness. Something to do

with the tsourness.”

I watched her slice the apple into small pieces.

“It‘s an old wives tale that actually works. Here.”

I didn‘t hesitate and took a piece from her. The tart and sweet taste was welcome upon my tongue, I che

wed it a few times and swallowed it down.

“It‘s quite refreshing. Wow, it helps a lot.” I pulled myself to sit up so I could carry on the

conversation. “I‘m Ro. It‘ s so nice to meet you.”

A chuckle left her lips as she handed me another piece. “My name is Seraphine.”

“Thank you so much for being so kind, Seraphine.”

She stared at me for a moment, her smile faltering slightly before nodding her head. “The real world can

be quite troublesome at times. But it is us women that must stick together and take care of each other.”

We both giggled at her words.

Now that I felt better, I tried to stand back up so that I could return to my room. As soon as I did so, my h

ead spun again.
