Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 417

Chapter 417: Backfired on her

Katelyn turned on her heels and strode out of the Nightshade mansion.

The moment she disappeared, William rounded on his wife. "Who told you to give the Princess’s personal contact information to Sage’s ex?" he thundered.

Blythe flinched, lowering her gaze. "I only wanted them to be friends," she murmured in a trembling voice.

"Friends?" William stepped closer, his anger radiating. "Do you even hear yourself? Blythe, if the Princess refuses to marry my son because of this stunt, you’ll be leaving this pack. Keep that in mind."

Blythe’s head snapped up, eyes wide. "Are you serious?"

"Yes, I am," he growled. "I won’t tolerate you in this house if you’ve ruined this alliance." With that, he turned on his heel and stormed off to meet Sage.

Blythe stood frozen for a moment, her heart pounding. Then, with shaking hands, she hurried to the bedroom and grabbed her phone. She dialed Eleanor’s number, and the call connected after a few rings.

"Aunt Blythe! Good morning," came Eleanor’s cheerful voice on the other end.

Blythe didn’t waste time. "What did you do to Princess Katelyn?" she demanded.

"I—I didn’t do anything. What happened?" Eleanor stammered, confusion lacing her tone.

"Don’t lie to me!" Blythe snapped. "You must have said something. The Princess came here and humiliated me in front of everyone! Do you have any idea what you’ve done?"

Blythe’s hand trembled around the phone as she listened to Eleanor’s voice.

"I’m sorry, Aunt Blythe," Eleanor said quickly. "I only did what you asked. You told me to break their alliance, so I reminded the Princess how close I am to Sage."

Blythe’s color drained. "Don’t ever go near them again," she snapped. "And delete the Princess’s number if you want to keep living comfortably. Katelyn doesn’t forgive or forget." She ended the call before Eleanor could protest.

For a long moment she stood where she was, the silence of the room pressing in. Her scheme was meant to make Sage look bad in William’s eyes and drive a wedge between him and the Princess, but it backfired on her. This was the first time William got angry at her.

"I can’t believe Katelyn was this bold," Blythe murmured. ’If Katelyn marries Sage, I’ll be the one to suffer.’ The idea made her hands clench. She decided to find a way that the alliance would break without her getting being involved.

Sage stared at the empty bottle of suppressants on the table.

"I can’t believe that even with a mate, I still have to take these," he muttered in disbelief. "But this rut, it’s worse than ever. Maybe because I’ve finally found my mate... and she refuses to be with me."

A sudden chime of the doorbell cut through his thoughts. He frowned. "Who’s here at this hour?" 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Setting the bottle down, he pushed himself up and went to the door.

"Dad!" he blurted, surprised to see William standing there.

"You didn’t go to the office," William said, his tone more statement than question.
