Sould As The Alpha King's Breeder



Chapter 0103

"It is still very kind of you to help me," I said, inwardly thanking the Moon Goddess for bringing this wonderful 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 that, 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 tsaumess.

I watched her slice the apple into small pieces.

"It's an old wives tale that actually works. Here."Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

I didn't hesitate and took a piece from her. The tart and sweet taste was welcome upon my tongue. I chewed 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 head spun again.

"Goodness," I breathed.

"Easy dear. The apple helps, but it will take a day or so for everything to settle completely."

She helped me to my feet. The good news was that the swaying motion was not as bad as it was earlier.

"So where are you from, Ro?"

"..." Her sudden question caught me off guard. In a panic, I pretended to fumble as if my seasickness was back again.

By the time I "regained" my balance, I came up with my answer. 'I am from Mirage.'

She smiled, nodding her head. "The eastern capital. I've been there a few times. Have you ever seen King James?"

I paused and nodded my head. "Yes, I was fortunate enough to meet him once."

Immediately, she seemed so uncomfortable. "Oh, I'm sorry...my lady!"

"No, no, no! I am nobody, really. I just meant that I've seen him from far away in the monthly royal market event. I was able to steal a glimpse from far away."

The lie came quite naturally; however, my mind immediately went back to Ethan. That precious day he spent with me in the market brought a smile to my face.

It seemed that the longer I was away from him, the more sweet moments that we shared came back to my mind.

But then I would remember that I was on a boat far away from him and likely would not see him again in my lifetime. My smile vanished and my heart ached.

Luckily, Sarephine quickly accepted my explanation.

Knowing I had limited knowledge about Mirage, I quickly changed the subject and asked, "How about you?"

"I am from Papeno, but I travel quite a bit. I was on the East mainland, and now I'm on my way back to Papeno. But before that, I will check in with my younger sister in Avondale."

"She lives in Avondale?"

"Yes, she does."

We had arrived back at the door of my room. I turned to her.

"You are a remarkable person," I said with a smile. "I am not sure I would've been able to manage this on my own." "Oh, my dear. Never think you aren't capable. You are stronger than you give yourself credit for- that I am sure of." She followed me into the room and helped to settle me back into bed. The soft comfort of the blankets upon my mattress was a most welcome feeling after all the swaying and dry heaving I had done earlier.

"This feels amazing," I mumbled softly. "I should have just stayed here."

Seraphine laughed, placing a few items on the bedside table. "Yes, but you still need fresh air once in a while. It's all about the right balance."

"I cannot say thank you enough, Seraphine." I snuggled further into my blankets.

"Don't worry," Seraphine whispered. "I will be back later to check on you and bring you something to eat. Take a nap, if you can. Believe it or not, once you get used to them, the waves actually help with sleep."

The door slowly closed before darkness took me.

I hoped that, this time, Ethan would not be in my dreams.
