Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 584

Chapter 584: The man was a visionary

"Are you sure?" Gabriel frowned, his skepticsm etched into the hard lines of his face.

"I’ve only heard the whispers, Gabriel. No one ever uses these methods openly, or if they do, the witnesses don’t tend to survive to tell the tale," Carlos explained.

"I’ll go to Zedrion," Karmen volunteered immediately. "If there is even a shadow of a lead there, I’ll find it."

"You need to bring a bloodsmith back here at any cost. Do you truly think you can handle that?" Louis questioned him. "These aren’t men you simply hire; they are fanatics of their craft."

"I’ll convince them," Karmen said confidently, a small, daring smile playing on his lips. "But," he added, glancing at the Beta, "I won’t stop you from accompanying me, Louis. Your negotiation skills might be useful."

Louis leaned back, his gaze shifting to Gabriel. "I don’t want to work for free for you, Gabriel. This is a suicide mission. Give me something in return."

"What do you want? Money? A high-ranking position in the court?" Gabriel arched an eyebrow, his patience thinning.

"I have more than enough family wealth; I don’t need your gold," Louis cleared his stance, his expression turning deadly serious. "Make me your right-hand man."

"I’m his Beta," Karmen snapped, his posture stiffening. "Weren’t you always the one annoyed with Gabriel’s every move? Now, you suddenly want to be his right-hand man while I’m standing right here?" He looked at Louis with deep skepticism, sensing a hidden motive behind the sudden desire for political power.

"I think I will love working for Gabriel. People have started respecting him more than ever," Louis stated. "I don’t know if the royal family is truly aware of the shift, but after Gabriel rescued a distressed runaway omega and made her his wife, a large faction of the common people have begun to admire him. They see him as a protector, and someone who can uplift them as well."

Carlos studied Louis for a moment. He realized the man was a visionary; Louis didn’t just see the King, he saw the potential for a legend. He knew Gabriel was capable of things others weren’t, and he wanted to tether his own legacy to that rising star.

"Karmen is my right-hand man," Gabriel stated flatly, leaving no room for negotiation. "While Denzel is my left-hand man. Both my hands are already full, Louis. Furthermore, you may find that you won’t benefit from me as much as you think after a while. I can guarantee you a seat on the High Council, however."

"I don’t want that. The Council is a room full of fossils," Louis asserted. "Make me your Advisor, then."

Gabriel chuckled, the sound low and slightly dangerous. "Why are you so persistent to be by my side? Most men would prefer to keep as much distance from me as possible."

"Because I will benefit from you in the future. My name will grow if I stay by your side," Louis stated with startling clarity. "I am quite honest about what I want. You may not want to lose a gem like me, Gabriel. I’ve always helped you, even if, in the past, it was mostly because I feared you."

"I’ll think about it," Gabriel said, his voice neutral. He wasn’t refusing, but he wasn’t handing over the keys to his inner circle just yet.

"Wonderful! Don’t disappoint me," Louis said, a triumphant glint in his eyes. "I will go with Karmen and bring the bloodsmith here. You have my word."

"One more thing," Gabriel began. "My wife isn’t an omega. She is an Alpha. Her wolf was simply sealed because of a curse."
