Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 173

Chapter 173: No one touches my beta

Karmen walked into an underground gambling club.

’I hope I find this person today,’ he thought, looking at the picture on his phone.

He had made sure no one would recognize him there, so he put on a fake facial mask to cover his features. Such places were full of whispers, and he didn’t want anyone to find out that he was investigating on Gabriel’s behalf.

The place was covered in the stench of alcohol, cigar, and cigarette smoke. In the background, a piece of jazz music could be heard.

He scanned his eyes around only to find that the tables were packed with gamblers, laughing and betting.

He stopped by a table, where most of the crowd was present. Looking at their faces, Karmen realized none among them matched with the picture.

He moved to the other tables, doing the same. While heading to the leftmost table, he accidentally bumped against a muscular guy, who got annoyed and picked up a fight with him.

"I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you," Karmen said, his tone calm but sincere.

"You think an apology is enough?" the muscular man snarled, jabbing his finger into the center of Karmen’s forehead, once, twice, thrice, each poke sharper than the last, accompanied by a string of curses.

The line crossed when the man struck Karmen across the face.

Karmen had been holding back, not wanting to cause a scene inside the gambling house. As the man raised his hand again, Karmen caught it mid-air in a firm grip. His eyes narrowed before he delivered a swift, powerful kick to the man’s abdomen.

The impact sent the man flying backward, crashing into a nearby table. The few gamblers seated there quickly scattered, chairs scraping as they backed away from the brewing fight.

The muscular guy couldn’t stand up as Karmen used a brutal force on him. Whimpering in pain, he asked for help when a few rushed to his side to help him.

Karmen turned around to walk away but saw a few men had already left their seats with sharp weapons in their hands.

"Are you a beta?" One of them asked. He has a big moustache and a scar on his forehead.

"Are you?" Karmen asked, clenching his fists hard.

"We are beta hunters," the same man said.

Karmen hadn’t expected hunters to be there.

Another man stepped beside the first, brandishing a curved blade. "Surrender now, before we carve you up piece by piece," he threatened.

Karmen chuckled when he finally noticed someone for whom he was here.

"You won’t dare to do that," Karmen said. "Let’s not make it a ground of blood shed," he added.

"I think you do have a hearing problem, beta!" The man with long moustache said again. "You’re going to die tonight," he muttered with a wide, evil grin.

’This beta is faster and stronger than we have encountered so far. I’ve to take him down,’ he thought.
