Reject My Alpha President (Iris and Arthur) novel Chapter 129

Chapter 129

I shake my head, refusing to believe her words. “You’re lying. Arthur loves Miles.”

She tilts her head in an almost feline fashion. “Keep telling yourself that.” Selina tucks the document back into her purse. “But ask yourself why he never told you about Miles‘ true nature. Why he let you believe your son was just a human boy.”

My mind flashes to all the little signs I’d dismissed–Miles’s unusually quick reflexes, his heightened sense of smell, the way his eyes sometimes catch the light just like Arthur’s. The very fact that he could sense that Arthur was his father in the only way werewolves can.

“Little wolf,” I called him for years. All this time, he really was one.

Selina moves toward the door then, pausing with her hand on the knob. “You should have taken the money and run when you had the chance, Iris. Now it’s too late.” She opens the door. “Arthur may think he wants you now, but trust me once he secures his rights to his Alpha son, you’ll be nothing more than a footnote in his story. And he’ll come back to me, where he belongs.”

With that, she walks out, closing the door behind her with a soft click that sounds like a gunshot in the silence.

Arthur

I stare at my phone in shock, watching the footage from the nanny cam app with growing horror. Selina is at my door spewing venom with a smile on her perfect face.

I’d installed the security system after Miles got lost, wanting both him and Iris to feel safe, wanting to be able to check on them when I was away. I never imagined I’d be witnessing this.

“Aw. He didn’t tell you, did he?” Selina pulls a folded document out of her purse, and my blood runs cold before she even hands it to Iris.

The DNA results.

The test confirming that Miles is a wolf and not a human.

For weeks, I’ve been keeping it from Iris, waiting for the right time to tell her. I didn’t want her to know that I knew, not yet, not until I’m certain I can convince her that I don’t intend to take him from her as my Alpha Heir. I wanted to build trust first, make sure she knows that I have no bad intentions.
