Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 41

Chapter 41: Feel the pup’s heartbeats

"Alright. I trust you," Amelie said softly, rising from the recliner. She was about to leave when Gabriel stopped her with a gentle tone.

"You can sleep here if you want."

Amelie looked at him, slightly surprised, then gave a small nod. "Okay. But I need to switch off the lights in my room first."

"Sure. Go ahead," Gabriel replied, his gaze following her as she walked out.

Once she left the room, Gabriel picked up his phone and saw a message from Karmen.

It is someone known around you.

Gabriel’s expression darkened as he quickly typed a response.

Who?

A moment later, Karmen replied.

I’m still accessing it. But I think someone close has done it. By tomorrow, I’ll have the answer. Good night.

Okay. Good night.

Gabriel placed his phone on the nightstand and leaned back, running a hand through his hair. His mind was already racing.

"Casaio?" he murmured under his breath.

He was the only one who had shown clear disapproval of his relationship with pregnant Amelie. "But can he stoop so low?" Gabriel mumbled in skepticism. His gaze drifted toward the door just as it opened. Amelie stepped in quietly, closing it behind her with a soft click.

She walked toward the bed without looking at him. "I’ll take that side," she said but avoiding his eyes.

Gabriel watched her as she settled on her chosen side, pulling the blanket up and placing a pillow right in the center of the bed like a soft barrier.

"Seriously, kitten? You’re creating a partition?" he asked, half amused, half in disbelief as a grin tugged at the corner of his lips.

"Ah. I don’t want to invade your side and disturb your sleep," Amelie replied.

Gabriel chuckled and climbed onto the bed, effortlessly removing the pillow she had placed between them. "I’d actually love it if you invaded my space," he said with a teasing smirk. "And aren’t I your mate? You’re supposed to like my musky scent."

Deep within him, Valko, his wolf, let out a low, eager growl of approval. It wasn’t just Gabriel—both man and wolf had long yearned for the day a woman would catch his scent and not turn away.

Amelie bit her bottom lip and hummed softly.

"Tell me, how does my scent feel to you?" Gabriel asked, his violet eyes fixed on her.

"I already told you," she replied, trying to suppress the warmth creeping up her face. But before she could react, he suddenly rested his head on her lap, catching her off guard.

Her breath hitched. "Gabriel—"

"I want to know more," he cut in. "Besides, we’re not going to the office tomorrow, so we can stay up a little later." A flicker of excitement shone in his smirk.

Gabriel looked up at her. "Because she loves you," he countered. frёewebηovel.cѳm
