CHAPTER NINE
Ryker
Fried chicken, roasted potatoes with sauteed asparagus cooked in herb butter. I was going to make sure that my parents ate well so they could build up their strength when the time came. Killian was coming. Not once did I waver on my conviction, and when he did, we werenât gonna hold him back.
The color was returning to my motherâs cheeks, and she was coughing less than before.
I had passed the meals three times a day, whereas Knutâs men only fed them table scraps once daily. Damn bastards. Wasnât the silver enough to weaken them? They had to top it off by starving them.
I entered the foyer and nearly jumped out of my skin when I saw Robin standing under the stairs as if he was waiting for me.
âWhat are you doing?â
âFeeding my parents, someone has to,â I said, walking away. âSo, will you tell Knut?â
âYou donât have to worry about me doing that. The others do what they can to care for their parents as well. Itâs not much of a secret.â
âGood.â
âAmado thinks youâre stuck up. You havenât been by to speak to us at all since our first meeting.â
âI donât mean to be that way; Iâm just trying to keep a low profile, hoping that Knut wonât notice me.â
Robin laughed. âThatâs pointless. Youâre a new special prize, of course, he notices you. Heâs never gonna stop noticing you.â
A group of servants walked by the living room and suddenly became so silent we could hear a pin drop. Robin gripped my arm lightly and guided me out of there.
âKnut canât have children,â he whispered. âHeâs been having so much sex with us that itâs impossible for him not to get one of us pregnant. Heâs already offered me to his most trusted general James in the hopes that he would get me pregnant and pass the child off as his. In the meantime, Knut is probably using your pregnancy to squash any rumors about him. What is an alpha who canât even father children?â
âHe really trusts James.â
âThey were best friends and grew up together, so it seems heâs going to be on his side no matter what; however, the other generals are not like that.â
This was it; the information I needed was handed to me as if the spirits had heard my prayers.
The note the Panther slipped into my pocket informed me that he was working for Killian and needed to know who Knutâs generals were for their assault to work. I only managed to find out about James. I took a chance and asked him if he could point out the other generals. He smiled at me though I still couldnât read his face to tell if he would ask me why. I had already been betrayed too many times, and it made me apprehensive about trusting someone again.
âWalk with me and pretend weâre gossiping about stupid shit,â Robin replied. He didnât release me. We walked around the grounds of the estate, both inside and out. On this seemingly innocent walk, he had pointed out the men I needed to know about.
