Chapter 627 - She doesn’t see the ones who would truly value her

Kael smiled with unease, his gaze fixed on a point somewhere past Voren’s shoulder. Discussing this with his Alpha while so many pressing matters demanded their attention felt almost frivolous.

But his Alpha had brought it up, and Kael could not refuse. Also, he was moved that his Alpha cared about his love life.

"Alpha Voren, I’ll be honest." He took a steadying breath. "I don’t want to pursue Jasmine anymore."

Voren’s expression remained indifferent, carefully neutral. But inwardly, he was disturbed. Jasmine was so desperate to be loved, so hungry for affection that she had thrown herself at every man who showed her even a sliver of kindness.

Voren had wanted her paired before she allowed her obsession to consume her completely. Also, he didn’t want her mated out of the Grimroot pack because Jasmine knew too much Voren’s personal life.

She could be the weapon of the enemy if she falls into the wrong hands. But Kael’s explanation rendered him speechless.

"I know she’s in love with Co-Alpha." Kael’s voice was flat, carrying no trace of jealousy or bitterness. "And to be honest, I’m very disappointed. For someone who had been brought because of you, and has faced your constant rejection..." He paused, shaking his head slowly.

"I kind of hoped the pain would prevent her from giving out her heart again. I thought she would have learned. But I was wrong."

Voren raised a brow, only one question sitting on his mind. "How did you know all this?"

Kael smiled, though it didn’t reach his eyes. The expression was hollow, a mere courtesy. "Alpha, I heard and saw things at the full moon festival." He paused, weighing his words.

"I heard Jasmine talking with some of the other she-wolves. Yeah, Emery and Tallulah. They all seem to have eyes on Co-Alpha, but it’s understandable." A shrug lifted his shoulders. "Co-Alpha is a genuinely pleasant person. He’s kind, he listens, he makes people feel seen. It’s easy to fall for someone like that."

Voren did not expect to hear this. The revelation that multiple women had set their sights on Corvine was unexpected, but he could see the truth in Kael’s words.

Still, neither could he force Kael to continue pursuing a love interest he had given up on. That would only breed resentment.

"What if you both turn out to be mates during the Blood Moon festival?" Voren asked, his voice carrying a note of genuine curiosity.

Kael smiled again, this time with a hint of resignation. "Then I don’t have a choice. I would accept her." His voice was matter-of-fact.

"But without the mate bond, I won’t go ahead with my plan of pursuing her. Jasmine is a very beautiful woman, but she falls for the wrong men. I love her, especially the way she takes care of kids because I want to have a lot in the future" His gaze flickered with something unreadable. "But sadly, she doesn’t see the ones who would truly value her."

A movement caught their attention, and they both turned to see Jasmine at the entrance. From her expression, the wide eyes, the slightly parted lips, the flush creeping up her neck, it was clear that she had heard a lot. Perhaps everything.
