Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 74

Chapter 74: Crime against the crown

Samyra hovered her fingers over the landline number, the only way she could contact Amelie. She dialed the number and kept her hand on the balustrade, hoping the call would be answered.

A servant answered the call.

"Hello, I am Samyra Conley. Can I talk to my daughter, Amelie?" she humbly requested.

"I’m sorry, ma’am," the servant replied. "But Prince Gabriel has issued strict orders. Miss Amelie is not to be disturbed by anyone affiliated with the Conley family."

Before Samyra could request her further, the line went dead.

She looked at the number in disbelief and brought her hand to her head, feeling guilty of her every action.

"Darling, what are you doing alone here in the balcony?" asked David as he stepped in there. He walked to Samyra and saw the phone in her hand. "Did you perhaps try to contact Amelie again?" he inquired.

"I did," Samyra admitted. "I wanted to apologize. Lady Vinette also expressed a desire to see her. I thought... maybe it could be a way to show Amelie that she still matters to us. That we still care."

David turned quiet, instead of giving her comfort.

"Don’t tell me you think it was Amelie’s fault," Samyra said.

"Wasn’t it? Why did she even do it before having any kind of commitment?" David frowned. "Then, she ran off instead of coming to us," he muttered.

"And why do you think she ran off? Flora betrayed her. They both are sisters. I treated Amelie badly because her omega rank always made me feel humiliated. I never took it with pride and let the hatred grow inside her. David, we both forgot how much Amelie meant for us since the day of her birth. We both ruined everything," Samyra said, her tears were on the verge of falling.

David placed his hands on her shoulders before hugging her. "Yes, we failed her. I–I will find a way to communicate with her. Because Prince Gabriel is involved, I am being cautious," he whispered, caressing his wife’s back. "But I promise I will make it possible that you can talk with Amelie."

"You aren’t sleeping, Gabriel," Casaio arched his eyebrow as he entered the study of his youngest brother while scanning his eyes through the shelf.

Gabriel pulled out the drawer and put the book inside it, which he had been reading.

"Why are you bothered about me? It’s not like you, Casaio. Do you need something? You used to blackmail me, saying you would tell Mom if I didn’t listen to you," Gabriel chuckled.

"Aren’t such things common between siblings?" Casaio noticed how Gabriel hid a book inside the drawer of the desk before he could even check what he was reading. However, he didn’t bring it up.

"I don’t consider you and Dominick as my brothers," Gabriel clarified to him. "That’s why I even set the trap so that you both could die peacefully," he stated.

"Do you think I’ll believe your words?" Casaio chuckled. "Nevermind. I am not here to talk about the past," he said, pulling out the chair to sit on it.
