The Tyrant Duke Is The Father
Chapter 9 - Hiding Spot
The moment that I was dressed, I looked at myself in the mirror.
The dress was quaint but had this rural charm to it.
It wasn't as grand as the ballgowns that my Father wore, but it was at least something.
As I went to open the door to leave, I noticed gold trinkets lining the top of the mantlepiece.
I need some kind of money to keep me going until Cayden is born.
I grabbed what I could and stuffed my pockets.
I even slipped a golden chain necklace in between my brexsts and opened the door.
He hadn't even posted a guard outside of it. Is he that stupid?
Anyway, I began navigating the manor, avoiding any men patrolling the gardens and the corridors.
Eventually, I found myself at the stables and my eyes glittered when I found horses just waiting for me to take one!
My eyes sparkled as I walked over towards them, slowly so that my waist wouldn't hurt, and went to get one ready to ride.
Guard
Have you heard of that announcement from the Tavern?
The sound of a man's voice made me jump as I looked around.
I then saw an ajar door, just about opened and rushed for it, closing it behind me.
I sighed as I heard the voices approach the stables and they remained there for a while.
Rosalie Julian
Phew, I'm safe for-
The sound of growls and snarls made me slowly turn around and my eyes went wide.
Wolves... and they looked ravenous.
They were as tall as I was and bore many scars.
The door to the doghouse opened and Cassian walked inside, arms crossed.
Cassian Bastillos
Are those dogs in need of fixing?
Floyen
H-How... is this even possible?
All of the wolves were laying together, all huddled around me, creating the most fluffy bed I had ever gone on.
Their pups were surrounding me, stretching out of me or licking my hands, making me laugh in my sleep.
Cassian Bastillos
Are they disfunctional?
Floyen
It seems like... they don't attack Lady Julian.
Cassian Bastillos
It's because my scent is inside of her.
Floyen then coughed, realising what he meant.
Floyen
Sir, surely you and Lady Julian-
Cassian Bastillos
She'll snap at you if you call her that. Apparently, she's not a part of the House of Julian anymore.
Floyen
Sir, do you trust her?
Cassian Bastillos
Trust? No. She'd kill me if you gave her a dagger and told her to stab me.
Floyen
Do you believe that she wants to cut ties with the House of Julian?
Cassian Bastillos
That... I can believe.

Why didn't the wolves attack Rosie?
A. Because she smells like Cassian, their Master.
B. Because Rosie is pregnant with Cassian's child and they could sense it.
C. They saw her as the mate of their Master and didn't attack her.
