Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157: At the Moon Fang

Standing on the balcony of her room, Amelie dialed her mother’s number. To her surprise, Samyra picked up on the very first ring, almost as if she’d been holding the phone, waiting.

"Amelie! Why didn’t you call back? And you haven’t replied to any of my messages. Is everything okay?" Samyra’s voice came through laced with panic and worry that caught Amelie off guard.

"Good evening, Mom," Amelie started with a greeting. "Yes, everything’s fine." Her gaze drifting toward the horizon. "I thought I’d talk to you once I got back to San Ravendale."

She paused, a small chuckle escaping her lips. "But you being worried for me... that’s a bit unexpected, isn’t it?"

There was a second’s silence on the line.

"Are you still upset with me and your father?" Samyra questioned as she put the phone on speaker now as David gestured to her for it.

"I am not upset. It doesn’t sit with me why you both suddenly started showing so much care for me, which was always absent for so many years," Amelie said. She could’ve kept all of this in her heart, but she wanted her parents to know the damage they did.

"Because we realized our mistakes," David said.

"Good evening, Dad," Amelie greeted him too.

"Good evening," David replied. "It was my fault all along to belittle you. Why don’t you come home and stay with us for some time?"

"That’s not possible, Dad. When I feel I need my parents, I’ll call you," Amelie clarified to them, refusing their demand. "I never felt like home in the Red River Pack. That place only gave me bad memories. And during my pregnancy, I want to be at a place, where I feel more calm and peace."

"If that’s what you feel, then we understand your decision," David said.

"Please tell Flora not to message me," Amelie urged.

"She’s trying to improve, Amelie," Samyra said.

"You should’ve been present in the same bedroom, where Alex rejected me; where Flora was laughing at me. Even she wanted me and my pup to die. If you are asking me to forget all of this, no, I can’t. In the past, I’ve always forgiven her. But she doesn’t stand a chance for my forgiveness anymore."

Amelie took a deep breath to calm herself down. "I’ll hang up. Take care," she said and cut the call.

She ran her hand on her face to her hair when sensed Gabriel’s presence right behind her. Turning around, she closed the distance between them and hugged him, clutching his shirt on the back.

"What happened to my kitten?" Gabriel caressed her back.

"I argued... With my parents," Amelie replied. "And I feel bad about it."

"Such a softie you are!" Gabriel murmured, gently pushing her while keeping his hold on her shoulders. Then, pinching her nose, he startled her with a kiss on the tip, then lips.

"Smile," Gabriel whispered, his forehead touching hers while his hands trailed down her arms to her hands. Amelie took a step back, but Gabriel followed, closing the distance until her back met the cool railing of the balcony.

"How can I smile when I’m upset?" Amelie murmured, lifting her head to meet his gaze, her brows still slightly furrowed.

Gabriel smiled softly, brushing a strand of hair from her face. "I’ll make it happen," he said confidently.
