Rejected and Pregnant: Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince-Chapter 29: Gabriel is after my life!

Alex slumped to the chair, and checked the phone, which was buzzing continuosly for a while. He was already exhausted from the entire day’s work but Flora didn’t stop pestering him.

Answering his call, he brought the phone to his ear.

"Where were you? You didn’t answer my single call, nor you gave me any replies to my messages. What are you pulling, Alex?" Flora angrily spat from the other side.

"I’ve been working. If I’m not answering the call, you should understand that I’m busy," Alex told her, but didn’t raise his voice. He couldn’t because she was his Luna, the chosen mate. However, deep down, he recalled Amelie, who would never even bother her.

’Fuck, I shouldn’t remember that bitch. Because of her, I almost lost my life,’ Alex thought.

"Sorry. Should I come over there? I will give you a head massage," Flora said, sounding a bit worried.

Alex though he truly needed his mate with him. He was stressed since the day he had returned from San Ravendale. The memories of almost losing his own life still feared him.

"Sure. I’ll be waiting for you. Let’s have dinner together at my home. You can stay the night here too," Alex told her.

Flora got happy upon hearing that. "I’ll be there in ten minutes," she said and hung up the call.

Alex put the phone on the round table and pressed his fingers on the temple of his forehead. He heard a knock on the door and lowered his hand.

"Alpha Alex, may I come inside?" It was Zander, his beta, on the door.

"Yes," Alex replied in a loud enough voice and Zander walked in with a phone in his hand.

"It’s Alpha Prince Gabriel on the call," Zander informed him in a low voice.

"What?" Alex stopped blinking and a sudden lump formed in his throat. Swallowing it, he took the phone from Zander and brought it to his ear.

"Good evening, Prince Gabriel," Alex greeted him with respect.

"Drop the formality, Alex," Gabriel coldly said from the other side. Holding the glass of alcohol in his other hand, he continued, "I heard that Amelie’s foolish sister is spreading some shitty rumors about her. Did I not warn you to make sure no one in your pack speak against Amelie? I think you have taken my warning lightly. If I step a foot there, no one can save you from me. Last time you got saved because you were lucky, but this time no one will come!"

Gabriel openly threatened him this time, causing Alex’s body to tremble in fear.

"I will look into it. It’s not easy to dissipate the rumors in a single day," Alex stated.

"You think I want to hear your pathetic excuses," Gabriel growled from the other side and Alex moved the phone away from his phone.

"It won’t happen again, Prince Gabriel. Trust me," Alex said, urging him to give a chance.

"Trust word doesn’t suit coming from your mouth," Gabriel said. "If I hear another wrong word about Amelie, you aren’t going to live."

Before Alex could respond, Gabriel cut the call.

"Fuck!" Alex clenched the phone hard in his hand. He wanted to smash it, but Zander was quick to take the phone from him. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

"You need to stay calm," Zander said.

"How the fuck am I supposed to be calm? That bitch has ruined me. Gabriel is after my life! What kind of beta you are! I told you that night not to let her leave this place and now, she is with a man who is threatening me constantly. I have to beg for my own life," Alex yelled at Zander in frustration and ran his fingers through his hair before standing up.

He kicked away the chair and it slammed against the wall.

Zander stood quietly, not uttering a word.

"Agh! Why is Gabriel even protecting a fucking, weak omega?" Alex muttered, lowering his hand to his side.

"As far as I know they spent a night together in the hotel. One of our warriors said that he did see a drenched woman heading inside the hotel with Gabriel. However, he didn’t see her face. We inquired at the hotel as well, but the refused saying any woman named Amelie checked in there that night," Zander asserted.

"You mean... She spent a night with him!?" Alex arched his eyebrow. "What’s even good in her? I thought Gabriel had high standards," he said.

"Shouldn’t Alpha ask the same question from himself?" Zander questioned.

"What?" Alex frowned. Because Zander was his childhood friend, he couldn’t even say anything to him.

"You got Amelie pregnant. You created this very problem, Alex. Then, you decided to get her killed because you never saw her as your luna. Amelie doesn’t want to return, so you should do your best to remove every rumor about her," Zander advised him.

"Yeah. You are right. I made the worst mistake of my life. I will put an order in action, making sure no one in the pack talks bad about Amelie," Alex asserted.

"Won’t people doubt why you are doing this?"

"I am not supposed to tell anyone that Amelie is with Gabriel. My life is stuck on my throat. You have no idea I never felt such kind of fear in my life," Alex stated.

"You can talk to your father. Maybe he will speak with the King. I am sure Prince Gabriel will not say anything before his father," Zander suggested.

"Gabriel isn’t scared of his father. The rumors about him aren’t wrong. He pierced my cheek with that silver dagger. I don’t wish to anger him, Zander," Alex stated with a serious expression. He sensed the presence of Flora in the mansion and told Zander he should leave.

Zander nodded and left the room.

Alex took deep breaths and brought the chair back to its original place.

"Alex!" Flora’s voice reached his ears and he wore a fake smile on his lips.
