Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 516

Chapter 516: A journey to their past lives (11)

The Past 10:

Amelie didn’t just accept the kiss; she nipped his lower lip in response, causing him to pull away instantly, a look of shocked pleasure on his face.

"What’s that?" He licked his lower lip slowly, a low grin spreading across his face.

"Did you really just fake a burn to get me alone and kiss me?" Amelie arched her eyebrows, trying to regain her composure.

Suddenly, a brisk knock occurred on the door, and before Amelie could move to open it, Anaya pushed the door inward and stepped inside.

"Amelie, I brought the shirt for Prince Gabriel," Anaya announced, her voice overly sweet. Her feet immediately glued to the floor where she stood; however, as she took in the sight of the Prince’s back and Amelie standing so close.

"Why did you just walk inside?" Amelie frowned, already moving toward her. She quickly took the folded shirt from Anaya’s frozen grasp and continued, her tone sharp, "Thank you. You can leave now."

Anaya didn’t offer a word of protest and slowly turned to exit.

"Stop bothering my mate," Gabriel finally said, his voice dropping into a dangerous, cold warning. He had quickly finished re-buttoning his singed shirt and fully turned to face Anaya. "It will be far better for you if you leave this house entirely, or I assure you, I have very effective ways to kick you out of this place permanently."

"Gabriel!" Amelie exclaimed in shock, whipping her head around to look at him, baffled by the sudden possessiveness and the hostility in his tone.

"Your Highness, why do you speak in such a manner with me?" Anaya asked, attempting to look hurt, though a faint, resentful glint was visible in her eyes.

"Because I despise your kind," Gabriel answered her truthfully, his voice completely devoid of warmth. "Do you truly think I am unaware of the insidious actions happening inside this house? I love only one woman, and that is Amelie." His intimidating gaze now bored into Anaya.

"If I find you bothering her, interfering with her, or even looking at her with ill intent again, I swear you will not be spared. So, it is better for you to keep your distance from Amelie." He drove the final point home, his authority absolute. "This family is generously feeding you and your mother; ensure you keep gratitude for that in your heart, not greed."

Anaya’s jaw tightened in silent fury, her cheeks flushing with humiliation and suppressed anger. She bit back any retort and turned sharply on her heels, walking swiftly out of the room.

"Why did you have to speak in such a tone with her?" Amelie inquired the moment the door clicked shut, crossing her arms.

"Because she’s going to bring trouble for you, Amelie. Trust me," Gabriel said simply, his previous intensity softening only slightly. "I will talk to your father about having her and her mother removed later today."

"No, I will handle it," Amelie stated, her voice firm. She held out the clean shirt. "Wear this one now."
