Lahat ng Kabanata ng Rejected by My Alpha: Pregnant with his Secret Heir: Kabanata 51 - Kabanata 60

Derrick “Remember,” Lucas said as we walked out of my office in the Pack House, “We don’t know the enemy that attacked us, nor why they did it.” I nodded, even though it didn’t sit well with me that I had to sit down with the Pack council and lie to them. My father always taught me to treat Pack affairs with honesty. But here I am, on my way to dishonor his legacy. Whatever heaven he’s in, I’m sure he’s grossly disappointed in me. Today isn’t the first time I’ve dishonored him. It dates way back to the time I said ‘I do’ to Dahlia Silverclaw. I cheated on her several times, and I even betrayed my old man’s dying wish to be with Dahlia as her husband. If only I had listened to him, if only I’d been a faithful husband and cherished Dahlia like I was supposed to, none of this would be happening. Twenty-five of my men would still be alive today.“Also, under no circumstance should you mention Rowan’s name or The Blackvines Pack,” Lucas continued his rambling, totally oblivious to my ab

Derrick“Dad…” My son’s voice trembled while I patted his hair on his bed. I hummed, beckoning him to continue even though I already knew where he was driving at. “Is it true you and Mom are going to separate?” My lungs deflated as they forced a long trail of breath out of me. Davies rarely cries, but tonight…my heart broke at seeing those brown eyes get drowned in a pool of tears. It is one thing to divorce Cami; it is another thing entirely to explain to your five-year-old son the complications of adulthood.“Yes…” I mumbled after a while. “Why?” his cords almost snapped from releasing that question. I stole a quick breath, trapping it in my throat while I pondered the best way to explain things to him. But no matter how I look at it, he’s still too young to deal with the truth. Besides, how can I tell him that his real mother shouldn’t have been Cami, but Dahlia? He’s always known me to be upright, but that view can quickly change in a matter of seconds when he learns about my

Derrick“Here it is,” Lucas released a distress sigh as he placed multiple files, no less than twenty, on my desk. “The list of our Pack members who want to leave our Pack.”I rose from my swivel seat, scattering the files abroad my table at a snail's pace. I haven’t gotten a minute of rest since my day dawned. First, it was clearing the rubble, then Teresa. Just when I thought getting Dahlia to forgive me could not get any harder, I’m hit with the news that the strongest Alpha in the country is her father. I was really a fool five years ago. I thought Dahlia was nothing, turns out she could turn me to nothing if she wanted. And now…this.Each file had a photo attached to the top right. I recognized every one of them, ranging from different sectors of the Pack: The security department, the health department, the finance department, and the social department. My jaw locked as my eyes set on Richard and Cami’s picture. The two biggest waves in my Pack. I know it is because of them tha

Dahlia “Mommy, why is Uncle Lancel sad?” Zahra whined as we stood from a distance, watching Nora’s family and my family rapport in the Gazebo. They were all smiles except for one person, Lancel. Everyone noticed his attitude, but no one dared to comment. Unless they wanted to incur my father’s wrath, of course. But I just can’t shake it off since last night, that I’m the reason for Lancel’s agony. I spoke to Rowan about it, but he, too, is on father’s side. He believes we are doing the right thing. So why does this feel so wrong?“Summer!” Zahra squealed as an orange-brown furred wolf hopped to our side. She circled us, snuggling her snout and rubbing her silky furs against our legs. And then she started hopping away, which made Zahra leave my side. A tiny smile parted my lips as my daughter joined Summer on her sprint bout. Her black curls bounced in tandem to Summer’s swaying fur.I was grateful to Summer for stealing my daughter’s attention. It saves me the stress of lying to my d

Dahlia “Stand down, Rendall!” I didn’t realize when that command escaped from my mouth. But what I did know was that pain rattled me to the bones seeing Rendall crush Derrick.“Continue!” My father ordered beside me, and Rendall happily obliged. Hitting Derrick’s spine harder with his heel. “Father!” As much as I tried to keep it at bay, my worry for Derrick blared so loud in my voice, causing a strict vein to bob in my father’s temple. “Rendall is going to kill him!”“Rendall is teaching him a lesson!” “Dad!” My father grunted and darted his eyes back to Derrick, who stopped moving altogether.“I said let him go!” My chords nearly snapped from yelling. Still, it wasn’t enough to dissuade Rendall. Almost like none of us mattered to him except the orders of my father. “Alpha Salvador, please!” Teresa fell on her knees with water trickling from the edges of her jawline like a faulty tap. “Please, we’ll leave. Let my brother go.” Lancel looked to my father with pleading eyes, too.
