Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 227

Chapter 227: Mark on his chest

"Dad’s prepared a report on the attacks targeting the betas," Juniper said over the phone.

Dominick lay back on the bed, adjusting the earbud in his ear. "I’ll come over to check the report, then," he responded with determination.

"No need. Dad said he’ll be bringing it to the palace himself," Juniper informed him. After a pause, her tone softened. "By the way, how’s Gabriel? I couldn’t visit him at the hospital. I hope he’s doing better now."

"He’s recovering well," Dominick replied. "The healers advised him to rest for two more days."

"And what about Brother Casaio?"

Dominick’s voice grew heavier. "Not great. He’s caught in this exhausting love-hate cycle with Zilia. Honestly, he looks more shattered with each passing day. It’s painful to watch him break piece by piece, and the worst part is... I can’t do anything to help him. I hate feeling so helpless."

"You can’t help him, even if you want to," Juniper said gently.

Dominick’s brows drew together. "What do you mean?"

Juniper sighed. "Brother Casaio needs to fight his own battle. If he truly wants Zilia in his life, he has to hold on to her and fight for her. But if he doesn’t, then he has to let her go completely. He’s the only one who can make that choice."

Dominick nodded slowly. "Yeah... you’re right."

There was a brief pause before Juniper changed the subject. "One of my friends is hosting a party. I haven’t decided if I’ll go, but... if you come with me, I’ll go. I know you’ve been busy lately, and I wouldn’t ask if it wasn’t important. But she’s been insisting for days now."

"I’ve always time for you, June. When is the party?" Dominick asked.

"In the evening. Sorry for discussing about it so late," Juniper whispered.

"Don’t be. I’ll pick you up then," Dominick assured her.

"Sure. I’ll wait for you," Juniper said, smiling. Before she could speak further, she felt a sudden warmth spreading through her body as Dominick hugged her from behind. He had teleported to her room, particularly the balcony, where she was standing.

"I always have time for you, June. When’s the party?" Dominick asked warmly.

"In the evening. Sorry for telling you so late," Juniper replied in a soft whisper.

"Don’t apologize. I’ll pick you up," he assured her without hesitation.

"Sure. I’ll wait for you," she said with a smile.

Before she could say anything more, a sudden warmth enveloped her from behind. Dominick’s arms wrapped around her in a firm embrace. He had teleported directly onto her balcony, where she stood gazing out at the sky.

"Nick!" Juniper gasped in surprise, ending the call and lowering her phone. "I didn’t expect you to show up like this."

"I missed you," Dominick murmured, resting his chin gently on her shoulder.

His lips slowly trailed downward, from her lips to her chin, then to the delicate curve of her neck, igniting warmth in her body wherever they touched. Juniper’s fingers fumbled with the buttons of his shirt, eager yet trembling with anticipation. free\we\bnov(e)(l).com
