Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 339

Chapter 339: Deserve someone much better

Gabriel finally relented, allowing Mabel to care for Amelie, but with one strict condition: if Amelie were to get hurt, even in the slightest, Mabel would face severe consequences.

Later, as he pulled the trolley bag outside, Gabriel stopped near the car. The driver loaded the bag into the trunk while Gabriel turned to face his father with a tense expression.

"I don’t know what to say to you. You know your wife, and yet... You went through with it," Gabriel said sharply with frustration.

"I’ll hear the same from you in two months, after Amelie gives birth to the pup," Raidan replied evenly, meeting his son’s gaze.

"Nothing will change, Dad. I’ve already given up hope for my mother. Can’t you see that?" Gabriel frowned deeply. Then, letting out a heavy sigh, he added, "Your flight might be delayed. I should drop you off." He decided not to argue further, it would accomplish nothing.

Gabriel opened the backseat door, and Raidan climbed in. The door closed softly behind him. The window was already down when Gabriel moved to sit on the other side, and he caught his father’s voice.

"Gabriel, I’ll go by myself. You just returned, not long ago. Stay here and don’t worry. I’ll call once I reach the palace. Dominick will meet me at the airport anyway," Raidan said firmly.

Gabriel hummed in acknowledgment and stepped back, letting his father settle in. He waved at his father, who drove off in the car. As Gabriel turned around, his gaze fell upon his mother, who was on the top of the stairs.

He wanted to ignore her completely, but it was just impossible.

Walking upstairs, he reached his mother’s level. "I’ll have eyes on you every time," Gabriel said and walked inside.

Flora glanced at her phone, wondering if she had come to the right address. A sudden chill ran down her spine when a cold latte glass pressed against her cheek.

She looked up and saw Zander standing in front of her, holding the glass with a small smile.

"I thought I might have the wrong place. It’s not very crowded here," she admitted.

"I chose a quiet spot on purpose, so we wouldn’t have to deal with a crowd," Zander replied.

Flora tilted her head. "And where’s your latte?"

"I already finished it. I’ve been waiting for you for over fifteen minutes," Zander said.

"I was stuck in traffic," Flora explained, taking slow sips of her iced latte as she walked alongside him. Tall trees lined the path, their branches arching overhead to form a natural crown. The greenery all around created a serene, almost secluded atmosphere.

"There’s a Moon Goddess temple here," Zander said, his voice calm. "That’s why it’s a spot where you won’t find many people."

Flora chuckled. "You seem to know more about San Ravendale than I do." She paused, raising an eyebrow. "Wait... aren’t you supposed to be looking after the pack?"

"Alphas can take leave too," Zander replied calmly.

"I can’t be with you," Flora said, slowing her steps. She turned to face him, her eyes serious. "I know you’re interested in me... but I’m not suitable for you. If you think I’ll give us a chance, I won’t. You’re a good man, Zander, and you deserve someone much better than me."
