Rejected and Pregnant: Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince-Chapter 57: Brought luck for me

"Why are we being thrown out of the ball like this?" Flora shouted. But the moment Karmen turned and glared at her, she lowered her eyes in fear.

"Alex, take her away. Make sure not to create any commotion," Karmen warned him.

Flora glanced at Alex and wondered why he was so quiet. She followed him silently to the car before heading to the hotel. Once they were in the room, Flora rained questions on him.

"Did you know Amelie was with Prince Gabriel?" Flora demanded.

Alex angrily pulled off his bowtie, then removed his blazer before settling on the sofa, feeling frustrated and tired.

"Alex, why are you quiet? Answer me!" Flora raised her voice in annoyance. "Why didn’t you say anything to that beta wolf who threw us out of the gala? Why did you not expose Amelie for accusing you wrongly?"

"Because she’s indeed pregnant, and I’m the father of the pup growing inside her womb," Alex finally revealed the truth to her. There was no way he could lie to her about it when David also knew the truth. "Prince Gabriel saved Amelie the day she ran away, and since then, they’ve been together. Amelie found her mate in him," he affirmed.

Flora stopped blinking upon hearing the truth. "She’s pregnant? And you kept lying about it?" She frowned, her wolf growling in anger.

"It was a mistake that should have never happened. Can’t you see why I rejected her? Because I don’t want her in my life. She’s not worthy to be my Luna. You are," Alex stated. "And even you wanted her dead. But we failed. If not for Prince Gabriel, Amelie would not have survived that night."

"Yes, I wanted her dead. But why did you lie to me? You kept lying even when I asked you," Flora’s fists clenched as she took a step closer to him.

Alex rose to his feet and bore his gaze at her. "Because I was worried. I thought you would leave my side. That pup has nothing to do with me. I don’t feel anything for Amelie or that pup. They both are not mine, but you are." He held Flora’s hands and lowered his gaze.

"Alex, you should not have failed that night. Amelie is alive. That means she told everything to Prince Gabriel. That’s why we were being thrown out. What if Prince Gabriel comes after our lives? Haven’t you heard the rumors about him?" Flora furrowed her brows together.

"As long as I stay away from Amelie, nothing will happen. Besides, my father is a close friend of the Alpha King. If Prince Gabriel does anything to me, he will have to bear the consequences," Alex stated.

"That’s not a solution to live well. How could you do this? You said you liked me, and you impregnated her!" Flora hit his chest with her fist, her anger surging with each passing second.

"Flora, I didn’t know something like that would happen. I know I made a mistake. I have nothing to do with them. You are the only woman I care about. And we are getting married soon. So, don’t think about your sister anymore," Alex advised her, keeping his tone gentle.

"But I cannot stand it," Flora said, turning around. "What if Amelie returns in the future with your pup?"

"She won’t. Didn’t you hear Gabriel declaring them as mates?" Alex ran his fingers through his hair before lowering his arm to his side. "Amelie will not return. Flora, if I wasn’t sure about my feelings for you, I would have never rejected Amelie. So, don’t be upset with me. I need you in this tough time." He waited for her to turn to him.

After a few moments, Flora turned around. "I won’t ever leave you." She hugged him and rested her head over his shoulder. "It’s just... if Amelie were dead, everything would be fine. Now, she will definitely come after you. You need to find a better solution for it."

"I will," Alex said, holding her close.

Amelie removed the earrings from her ears before making a bun of her hair. She was unable to stop smiling while thinking about the confession and proposal. Her eyes moved to the ring on her finger, and her heart fluttered with a sweet feeling.

Her hand moved to her lower stomach, caressing it gently. "You have brought luck for me," she whispered. After a moment, Amelie took a step back and turned around, only to bump her head against Gabriel’s chest.

"Sorry," she apologized immediately and lifted her head. "I’ll change first."

Gabriel held her wrist, stopping her. Turning, he embraced her from behind. "You ate less," he murmured.

"I was too happy," Amelie replied. "It all happened so fast. The day I ran off from my pack, all I knew was that I wanted to start fresh. Even if I thank you a thousand times, it will never be enough." Her eyes brimmed with tears.

"Then, don’t thank me," Gabriel whispered. His lips brushed against her earlobe, making her eyes flicker.

"The Queen wasn’t happy with this," Amelie said.

"She will never be happy with me," Gabriel answered. His lips found her neck, leaving soft, feather-like kisses on the curve of her neck. His hand found the thin strap of her shimmering sapphire dress, exposing her shoulder. Her heartbeat quickened.

"Gabriel," she called his name.

"Hmm?" He stopped right at her shoulder, his chin resting on it.

"You are releasing your pheromones way too much," Amelie said.

"Really? But you’re not affected," Gabriel remarked with a smirk. "You do have good resistance," he added and sucked on her soft skin.

"Mmm..." Amelie moaned, her eyes shutting closed. His hand moved to her waist, and he carried her in his arms in a bridal style, startling her. She blinked, and they were on the bed.

"Are you sure? I want to ask again," Amelie said.

Gabriel leaned down, his face hovering right above the lower part of her stomach, and he placed a kiss over it above the fabric of her dress.

"More than sure," he pronounced in his deep voice, meeting her gaze.
