<h4>Chapter 162: Lodging in an Apartment</h4>


    [Edward’s P.O.V.]


    I was so immersed in the excitement and joy of my reunion with Rose that I almost didn’t notice that we weren’t alone in the room.


    As Rose pulled me to sit on the sofa in the living room, I heard the apartment door open with a key, and then a bearded, middle-aged man with long arms walked in,


    When we looked at each other, I knew that he was Alonso. He didn’t seem shocked to see me, which puzzled me.


    “Susanna, can you help me make some supper for our new visitor? There were too many guests in the restaurant today. I’m exhausted.” The man lifted the ss on the table and drank a few mouthfuls, then he walked towards me. I immediately stood up.


    “Alpha, long time no see.”


    “Alonso, your new look is not bad. So you wrote the email?”


    “What email?”


    When I asked this question, Rose and Susanna asked me in unison. Clearly, they didn’t know about this.


    “What email?”


    Alonso looked at me in puzzlement. He was imitating them. But soon, he started giggling like before.


    “Alpha, you’re very smart. You cracked my email right away.”


    “Well, it wasn’t that difficult if one read it carefully. Besides, the word Rose was in there. How could it not catch my attention?”


    “So, what email are you guys talking about? You wrote an email to Edward asking him toe here to find me?” asked Rose in surprise.


    “Yes, I wrote a coded email to Alpha. What else could I do? Make my descendant hate me like crazy?”


    He stole a few nces at Rose but she didn’t say a word. This scene was a littleical. He appeared as a burly man with tattoos all over his body but was now acting all awkward and embarrassed as if he had done something wrong, stealing nces at his child hoping for a sign of forgiveness.


    “Why didn’t you just call me or my ranked members? It would have been so much easier. What if I missed your email?”


    “Because I wasn’t sure if the castle or your call was being monitored. This was the safest way. Even if you didn’t see it, I would have gotten Clyde to find a way to tell you.”


    “Clyde? I went to look for him as soon as I returned to the pack, but he said that he was no longer with you. He even said that the teacher-student rtionship between the two of you has been severed.”


    “Alpha, please don’t me him. I asked him to do this because I needed to make sure that you’re the real Alpha and that you still love Rose wholeheartedly.”


    “It seems that you already knew that the person in the castle is a fake? Then, how can you be sure that I have be the real me?” asked I.


    “Clyde is an expert in this area. That’s why I had him protect Rose in New Moon Pack.”


    “Alright, Alonso, I appreciate your care for my mate. But when Rose and I return to the pack, I hope that your disciple will not use his tracking talent on us. Otherwise, I might not be so kind to him.”


    “I promise you, he will only use it for the right reasons next time.” He continued to giggle at me.


    “Edward, are you here to bring me back to the pack?” asked Rose as she looked at me with her big, sparkling eyes.


    “Yes, Baby, that’s for sure. But just not now.” I caressed her long golden hair. The pleasant smell of nectarines, Freesia, and roses on her body made me unable to resist kissing the top of her head again.


    For the rest of the day, I told them everything that had happened, starting with my car ident. And when I mentioned Emily, I could clearly sense the jealousy in Rose’s voice. I did my best to exin to her why I had done what I did.


    When I realized that it was past the bedtime of a pregnant woman, I offered to save the rest of the discussion for tomorrow. I didn’t want my lover to be disturbed by my presence. Alonso and Susanna invited me to stay over and I was more than happy to do so.


    As we parted ways, I helped Rose to her private bathroom which I found to be exactly the same as in my previous dream. Now, I was convinced once again that this was all arranged by the moon goddess.


    I filled her bathtub. When the water was right, I began to bathe her. Her belly was big, full, and shiny. Her breasts were even more voluptuous than before because of the estrogen. Just bathing her had already made me hard.
