The Alpha’s Rejected Daughter by Humble Smith
Chapter 69

Chapter 69

She stepped closer, her step awkward as she was swaying her waist too much and rubbing her hand on her laps. I didn’t realize it was done to seduce me. She was actually walking that way to seduce me.

She placed her finger across my lips to shut me up, and she smiled and licked her lips, her other hand running down my chest and abs.

“Are you leaving already?” She said it in a hushed tone, and I nodded, irritation exploding inside me. I felt like the ground should crack open and I should fall inside and get buried like this. It was eating me up, but I had to fight off the expression on my face so she wouldn’t suspect anything.

“You may be surprised at how I trust you and haven’t even doubted you once. Well, at first sight, you captured my attention, and I felt relaxed and free with you around. To be honest, I was even jealous of you staying with that stupid girl in the same room.” She spilled, and my brows knitted together, my jaw dropping.

“I can sleep anywhere you want. You gave me this job, and I’m loyal to you alone.” It tasted so bitter on my tongue, and 1 really felt like slapping myself for saying such a thing, but the urge to survive was great. The desire to get her to trust me and then kill her was overwhelming, so I was ready for anything.

Her hand went into my trousers, sending chills down my spine as I shut my eyes and gnashed my teeth.

The thought of having sex with her was so disgusting, especially as I kept remembering how she betrayed our trust and tortured my sister.

Luckily for me, at that moment, a knock broke the silence and tension between us, and it was as if she resigned her senses and backed away immediately.

“You can go, but make sure you return on the date I told you. Don’t break my trust. If you do your job right, I have a better position than being a bodyguard” She said it with a wink and walked out quickly.

As soon as she left, I heaved a deep sigh of relief, hurrying to the bathroom to wash myself. Honestly, my hatred for her won’t even let me beat going like this after she touched me. I even had to change the clothes I wore since they had a trace of her perfume.

I just hope my sister returns safely, then we can make the rest of the plan with Selene and destroy his woman and her entire demon crew.

Torian’s POV

Since I had the chance to go wherever I wanted, I decided it was time to take the second chance to seek her help. I won’t want her father to die when she has the power to stop it.

I’d keep trying until I was sure all hope was lost. Even my pack isn’t safe if Selene still proves stubborn enough to help. Even if it was after her pregnancy that she decided to help, that’s fine. I just need a positive answer from her, so I will deliver it to her father and give him a reason to stay alive.

So I began the journey to meet Selene. I am part of the reason why everything is going wrong. I have lost my mother in the cause simply because I was blinded by love and did not see that there was a lot wrong.

Alpha Bale was someone who doesn’t joke with his family, especially his daughter. Even when his wife died, he made it clear that he has no plan to take in any woman, as he wants to take care of his daughter himself and make sure she takes over him, either as an Alpha or the Luna to the man she will be mated to if he is a royal member.

Then, all of a sudden, after the arrival of Diana, he didn’t only forget his dead wife but also began to mistreat his daughter. That was something that should have given me a hint if I wasn’t blindly drowning in obsession.

And I didn’t even see that she way faking it all, including her love for me. My mother warned me. She really gave me her strict warning to stay away from, that woman, but I was deaf to her words.

Now she is dead, killed by the woman I claimed loved me. She paid with her life for a crime that I committed. A mistake I

made took her life from her.

I let out a deep sigh of regret as I finally reached the border of the Lycan kingdom. I showed them my badge, and they let me through.

I headed straight to the royal castle all alone, with no one noticing I was an Alpha of a pack because I didn’t come with any guard or maid, just myself.

It wasn’t time to flex my authority when my head is barely above the water and about to get drowned entirely.

The pack isn’t even mine in full because soonest Diana will send the demons who will take over while I step down. She only left me to keep rulling now because she was still dealing with the Alpha Bale pack.

In her eyes, I was just an acting alpha while she prepared the person to take over.

I finally got to the gate of the castle, and the gateman came out.

“How can we help you?” He asked.

I stepped out of the car.

“I am here to meet Selene. She…”

“Aren’t you the man that came the other day? What the hell are you doing here again?” The man huffed at me like I was a simpleton. Actually, I am for now, because Diana has made me worthless to the last.

“It is obvious that Selene doesn’t want to see you. Do you want to receive another beating from her mate? Aren’t y

t you tired?”

“Go and tell, and I brought a message from her father. Let me know what her response is.” I said that just to know if Selene still cares a bit. If she doesn’t allow me in, then there is no hope, and I was going to leave here, knowing that it was all over. Diana has won over us

The man hesitated a bit but later went in while I stood outside the gate, hopefully waiting. I thought it was going to take forever, but it barely took five minutes. Not only did the gateman return, he came out with both Selene and her mate.

Selene had teary eyes when she walked out with her heavy pregnancy.

I was shocked to see her step down and out just to meet me because she could easily send for me to come in.

“Torian,” she called with an emotional tone. “How is my father?”

The question made me shudder a bit, a gasp slipping my lips as I stared at her in surprise and disbelief while she walked closer.

“Please tell me my father is alive and isn’t dead yet. Please tell me he is fine and hasn’t been possessed by a demon.” She asked continuously, holding my hands and urging for a quick response.

So she cares.

“Your father is fine, but that’s for now. He really needs your help. I came here just to know if there was any hope for him. To know if he should hold on to his daughter’s rescue coming very soon.” I sighed, and she shook her sadly, tears dropping.

“My pregnancy is the only reason I haven’t come with my mate and the warriors. How is he coping? Please come inside.”

I heaved in relief, feeling like life had just come back to me. This was what I dreamed of. This was what I prayed for, and 1 didn’t even believe for any reason that it would become reality. I didn’t expect this at all, and it was a fresh breath to see that the hope was still alive.
