Rejected and Pregnant: Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince-Chapter 35: Hybrid by birth

"Since the meeting is over, let’s go out," Gabriel suggested to Amelie.

"Huh? But I’ve work to do, Sir. I need to prepare the report regarding today’s meeting. Also, I have to go for a lunch with the team of secretaries in the afternoon," Amelie explained to him.

Karmen glanced at Gabriel, realizing he was acting like a sick lover, who needed attention.

"Ditch the lunch with them. About the report, you can give it to me later," Gabriel said.

"Are you suggesting me to take advantage of my position because you are my protector?" Amelie raised her brow. "And you are the company’s chairman, so no one would say anything to you. But the employees may not like this biased behavior of their boss," she added.

"Amelie is right," Karmen agreed with her. "Besides she has to know the other employees as well. So, the afternoon lunch with other departmental secretaries is a must for her," he affirmed.

"Alright." Gabriel sharply turned on his heels and walked to his grand office.

"Did I upset him?" Amelie asked.

"No," Karmen refused. "You should do the work," he added and went ahead.

Walking inside the office, Karmen said, "Amelie is dedicated to her job. She doesn’t wish to take anything for granted."

"Why?" Gabriel moved the chair as he turned toward the large floor-to-ceiling window before returning to his original position. "I thought she would stay close to me all the time. That way I will find the answers soon."

"It’s your company, Gabriel. You cannot make the others jealous of Amelie. Besides, the rumors are already there," Karmen pronounced as he walked toward the mahogany desk.

"Rumors?" Gabriel arched his eyebrow.

"About you and Amelie. Everyone is aware of your past relationships," Karmen stated. "The prince should know that the normal people’s eyes are always on him."

"What are the rumors? That Amelie is sleeping with me?" Gabriel questioned.

"Exactly!" Karmen replied.

"Fire the ones who spread those rumors," Gabriel stated.

"You can’t be serious," Karmen remarked.

"I’m dead serious, my beta," Gabriel answered. "Fire those fucking people, who has spread false rumors about us instead of focusing on their jobs." His command was clear.

Karmen nodded his head, simply agreeing to it because there was no way he could refuse Prince Gabriel.

"I hadn’t expected Casaio to be here in the morning," Karmen suddenly said.

"Neither did I. But I should have known my brother in a better way," Gabriel murmured. "He despises omegas the most. And he’s ready to take that hate on Amelie. I just hope he doesn’t do something dirty," he added.

"I found out something important regarding the Red River Pack earlier," Karmen said.

"What is it?" Gabriel inquired curiously.

"Flora and Alex are getting married the next day after the gala," Karmen answered. "I have found out some more details too. No one knew Amelie and Alex were together. He made sure his beta, Zander, would not let anyone see them. Amelie was the only omega in their pack who was not well perceived despite coming from a rich and respected family of alphas."

"That much I’ve found out from her. She was pretty upset while sharing all of that," Gabriel said and a deep frown appeared on his forehead.

"Will you tell Amelie about her ex-mate’s marriage?" Karmen questioned. freёweɓnovel.com

"I don’t know," Gabriel replied. Before he could resume the work to sign the files, his phone buzzed. "Let’s go. Ewan is finally spotted," he pronounced and immediately left his seat. Holding the phone tightly in his hand, he walked out first while Karmen followed his suit.

As they climbed into the car, Karmen drove it out of the parking lot.

"Drive to the Blackthorn Forest," Gabriel commanded.

Karmen pressed on the accelerator, overtaking one vehicle after the other.

Gabriel dialed Jarrell’s number, his another trusted beta and spy, and brought the phone to his ear.

"Don’t go near Ewon. Just make sure he doesn’t leave this forest," he commanded.

"Understood," Jarrell answered while swiftly moving through the woods.

Gabriel cut the call. "Drive faster," he commanded. Karmen increased the speed further and in twenty minutes, they were in the Blackthorn Forest.

Gabriel exited the car quickly, followed by Karmen. They rushed into the forest before transforming into their wolves forms.

Gabriel’s wolf was a giant white wolf with violet eyes while Karmen wolf had a grey fur with shiny blue eyes.

Ewan was not a pure-blooded werewolf. A hybrid by birth, his mother had been a witch, his father a powerful beta. But five years ago, Ewan had turned his back on his lineage, rebelling against his father and defying the King. He had built his own rogue faction, creating troubles in the packs.

And now, the prince was aware why Ewan had come here.

The Blackthorn Forest was known for its magical healing herbs. Ewan must be in need of them that he took such a risk to get them.

Gabriel could have ordered Jarrell and the warriors to capture Ewan, but the hybrid’s magic made him a dangerous opponent. A direct confrontation could put them at risk, which Gabriel didn’t want to happen.

’Jarrell, can you hear me?’ Gabriel created a mindlink between them.

’Yes,’ Jarrell responded instantly.

In less than a second, Gabriel pinpointed his beta’s location. ’Hold your position. I’ll be there in a few minutes.’

As Gabriel finally spotted Jarrell, he propelled himself forward in a powerful leap, landing gracefully before his beta. Karmen skidded to a stop beside him, his sharp eyes scanning the dense foliage.

"Ewan, come out!" Gabriel’s commanding voice reverberated through the forest as he shifted seamlessly into his human form, his clothes remaining perfectly intact, showing the supernatural ability he held.

A ragged breath sounded from behind the thick trunk of an old tree. Ewan cursed under his breath, pressing a trembling hand to his bleeding arm.

’Damn it!’

The hunter’s arrow had struck deep, its silver tip burning into his flesh. Though he carried the blood of a witch, his werewolf genes dominated, slowing his ability to use magical powers had reduced, especially when he was injured. He gritted his teeth in frustration. Out of all the wolves, he had to be caught by Gabriel.
