Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 520

Chapter 520: A journey to their past lives (15)

The Past 14:

Gabriel was standing near the edge of the pond, its perfectly still water shimmering intensely under the brightness of the midday sun. He had been waiting for Amelie to arrive soon.

"Why hasn’t she come here yet?" Gabriel murmured, his brow furrowing slightly in impatience before he decided to bypass the wait and reach out to Amelie directly through their mate mindlink.

Just as he focused, he felt the unwelcome footsteps approaching on the gravel path behind him. He instantly turned, his posture shifting from relaxed to rigid, and his blood instantly boiled as he saw who it was.

Anaya’s presence was a physical contamination of his solitude. His hands instinctively clenched into fists at his sides.

"What the fuck are you doing on this place?" Gabriel snarled in a dangerous growl that carried the full weight of his Alpha power and fury.

"Calm down, Prince Gabriel," Anaya cooed, deliberately keeping her voice light and casual in the face of his intense fury. "Why do you treat me like this? Why do you harbor such hatred for me? I simply asked to hear the answers from you."

"Leave. Leave this property immediately before I kill you," Gabriel told her, his intimidating gaze fixed on her.

"Kill me?" Anaya laughed that scraped against his nerves. "If you even attempt to touch me, Amelie will die," she announced, the smile vanishing, replaced by a cold satisfaction.

Gabriel’s expression instantly shifted from fury to worry. His muscles relaxed not out of calm, but out of necessity. "Where is Amelie?" he demanded, taking a quick, threatening step toward her. He simultaneously attempted to form the mindlink, reaching out desperately for Amelie or her wolf, but found he couldn’t connect with either of them.

"Well, she’s safe for now," Anaya drawled, maintaining that evil and triumphant grin.

"What exactly do you want?" Gabriel demanded, fighting the urge to tear into her. His mind was racing, trying to process the security breach. What were the spies doing? How could Amelie’s safety be compromised like this, right under his protection?

"Now, we have finally come to the business, Gabriel," Anaya purred, her victorious smile widening. "I simply want you." She pronounced the word with a possessive intent, taking steps toward him.

As she reached out her hands, intending to wrap them around his neck and embrace him, Gabriel’s hand shot out and tightened around her throat. He lifted her slightly off the ground, showing his rage.

"Show me where my mate is, you bloody witch!" Gabriel growled, the sound ripping from his chest. His eyes glowed into a deep shade of violet. "Or I swear by the Moon Goddess, I am going to rip you limb from limb right here, and no amount of black magic will put you back together!"

Anaya felt the suffocating pressure around her throat ease abruptly as Gabriel let go of her. She immediately collapsed onto the rough gravel pavement, coughing profusely, clutching at her bruised neck as she struggled to pull air back into her lungs.

Before she could even regain her breath, Gabriel violently grabbed her by the hair, yanking her head back and tilting her face up to meet his furious gaze.

"Where is Amelie?" he questioned again, his voice stripped of all patience.

"Kill me, and you’re never going to find her!" Anaya managed to choke out between gasps, clinging to the only leverage she had.

Just as Gabriel was about to lash out, a soft voice flared in his mind.

’Gabriel!’ Amelie’s faint voice reached him, sounding weak. He instantly reacted, his focus was now entirely to the link.

’Mate, where are you?’ Gabriel questioned instantly. He tried to reach for her scent through their bond, trying to pinpoint her location, but he couldn’t detect anything immediate. That meant she wasn’t physically nearby.
