Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 215

Chapter 215: A snake tattoo

"You’re not involving yourself in this case anymore," Casaio said firmly this time. "Besides, you’re leaving for San Ravendale. It’s not like you can go around every day hunting for the perpetrator. I’ll handle the rest of the work from here onward."

"You’re right but it’s not easy to find her," Gabriel admitted with a nod.

The ride back to the palace was quiet. As they stepped out of the car, they spotted Amelie waiting for Gabriel in the foyer.

The moment their eyes met, both began walking faster, until they closed the distance between them. Amelie threw her arms around him, and Gabriel pulled her close, lifting her slightly off the ground in a tight embrace.

As her feet touched the floor again, she cupped his face between her palms. "You scared me," she whispered, her eyes still radiating the concern for him.

"I’m sorry," Gabriel murmured, pressing a kiss to one of her hands. He gently nuzzled his nose against hers, their foreheads nearly touching.

Behind them, Dominick cleared his throat pointedly while Casaio wore a knowing smirk.

"You two can continue your romance in your room," Dominick teased.

Realizing they weren’t alone, Amelie quickly pulled back, a flush rising to her cheeks.

"Thank you for looking after Gabriel through the night," Amelie said sincerely, folding her hands in front of her.

Gabriel glanced at his brothers, who offered her warm, reassuring smiles.

"Let’s go in," Casaio suggested. "Kate and our parents must be waiting for Gabriel."

Gabriel gently took Amelie’s hand, and the four of them made their way toward the main hall.

The moment they entered, Mabel and Raidan rose from the sofa, visibly relieved. Katelyn stood up as well, her eyes lighting up the moment she saw Gabriel looking well.

Gabriel approached his parents first, offering a respectful greeting. Raidan immediately embraced his son, giving him a firm but affectionate pat on the back.

"It’s good to have you home," Raidan said. He glanced at Mabel.

"Be careful next time. You worried all of us," Mabel said as she returned to the sofa, choosing not to embrace Gabriel.

Amelie watched her closely, wondering why the Queen held herself back. Was it still her belief that withholding affection would somehow shield Gabriel from danger?

"I spoke with the hospital director this morning," Casaio began, addressing their parents. "Whoever did this came well-prepared. The perpetrator moved only through blind spots and entered the room to kill Jake’s mate, where Gabriel walked into later. Her face was fully covered, it was impossible to identify her."

"So no CCTV caught her at all?" Katelyn asked, clearly alarmed.

Casaio nodded. "Exactly."

Raidan’s expression grew tense. "What about her escape route? How did she leave?"

"She fled in a car, but the vehicle wasn’t registered," Casaio explained. "I’ll do everything I can to track her down." freewebnσvel.cøm
