Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 94

Chapter 94: Savoring her warmth

"Flora envies Amelie — that much I’m sure of," Gabriel said, his voice laced with bitterness. "But it doesn’t matter anymore. For what she’s done, she’ll suffer the worst punishment imaginable."

"She should," Skye agreed firmly. "Did you arrange for Jodie’s arrest as well?"

"Not yet," Gabriel replied, his frown deepening. "I move based on evidence, not emotions. Once Flora is brought here, I’ll deal with Jodie too. Right now, Amelie is all that matters."

His hand moved tenderly to Amelie’s forehead, his fingers brushing lightly across her skin, offering comfort only he could give.

Skye watched him for a moment, then nodded.

"I’ll take my leave. Amelie is stable," she said softly, before turning and quietly exiting the room, leaving Gabriel alone with his unconscious mate.

**’Valko, I feel like tearing Flora apart. But I can’t act out of rage. I don’t want Amelie to ever fear me. Yet what if she asks me to forgive Flora? I have no intention of doing that,’** Gabriel spoke inwardly to his wolf. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

**’Why should you even hesitate?’** Valko growled. **’Mate or not, this is about justice. We have to make the right decision — for her safety, for ours. We must make sure no one even dares to think of harming her again.’**

Gabriel hummed low in his throat, tension thrumming through his body. Just then, he caught the faintest movement of Amelie’s fingers twitching. His breath hitched as her eyes slowly fluttered open, dazed and searching her surroundings.

"Ame," Gabriel breathed, his voice breaking with emotion as he leaned closer.

"Gabriel..." she whispered weakly. "He... he was going to kill me. Then... a light... The pendant you made me wear... it shone. It protected me," she said between shallow breaths, recalling the terrifying memory.

"Yes, it did," Gabriel murmured, his hand sliding to her cheek to gently sweep away a stray lock of hair. "How are you feeling?"

"I’m okay... but still scared," Amelie admitted, her voice trembling. "I don’t understand why Alex would want to kill me. I thought he wouldn’t dare after that day... I was wrong. I shouldn’t have stopped you," she said, her lips quivering with guilt and fear.

"You think it was Alex?" Gabriel asked, his brows furrowing.

"Yes... who else would hate me that much?" she whispered, slowly pushing herself upright, her hands instinctively shielding her belly as her heart pounded violently. Flashes of the attack flickered through her mind, leaving her shaken.

"It wasn’t Alex," Gabriel said softly. "The attacker said Flora’s name."

"What?" The word escaped Amelie’s lips in disbelief. She stared at Gabriel, waiting for him to correct himself, but his grave expression confirmed the unthinkable. "You must be mistaken," she said with a weak chuckle, trying to deny it. "I know Flora... she hates me, yes... but she would never go that far. Not against me and Noa..."

But Gabriel didn’t waver, and the hope in Amelie’s chest crumbled. A tear slipped down her cheek as the painful realization sank in.

"Why..." she choked out. "Why would she do that?"

Gabriel immediately gathered her into his arms, pressing her against his chest.

"I’ve already sent my men after her," he whispered into her hair. "You need to stay strong for yourself... and for Noa."

"Hmm..." Amelie’s eyes filled with tears as she blinked rapidly, trying to stay composed. She pulled back slightly, clutching the pendant around her neck.
