Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 544

Chapter 544: My own life is messed

Amelie stood up after placing the bouquet of white lilies over Ravenna’s grave. She joined her hands together, praying silently for Ravenna’s soul. Gabriel watched her, deeply moved, and did the same.

As they both stood praying, Amelie spoke softly, "I don’t know when we will come here again, but I will keep my promise to you. Just stay in peace wherever you are, Grandma."

’I never felt the pain of anyone’s departure before this. I was never connected with any elder the way I got with you,’ Gabriel thought with grief. ’You were not even related to me, yet you taught me things I never knew I needed to learn. You helped me and brought me closer to the truth about why I faced such hardships in love, not caring about your own life. I will keep Carlos as my sworn brother by my side.’

"Gabriel, shall we go?" Amelie asked softly, finding his hand and intertwining their fingers to offer comfort.

He nodded, a silent acknowledgment, and walked out of the graveyard with her. Sitting back in the car, the driver started the engine and smoothly drove them back toward the house.

As they stepped out of the car, Gabriel’s phone buzzed. He pulled it out and checked the name. It was a call from his father, the Alpha King.

"You go inside. I will be taking Dad’s call out here," he stated, knowing the call was likely serious and needed privacy.

Amelie hummed her agreement and walked inside the house. Gabriel answered the call and walked to the right, stepping into the quiet solitude of the garden.

"Good afternoon, Dad. How have you been doing?" he asked.

"I am well. What about you? You’ve completely forgot your father and mother again," Raidan remarked, his voice carrying the faint disappointment of a distant parent.

"It’s not like that Dad. Grandma passed away," Gabriel delivered the upsetting news to his father with a heavy voice. "That’s the reason I couldn’t get in touch."

"That’s indeed upsetting. May her soul rest in peace. How’s Carlos?" Raidan paused, offering brief condolence. "You two should stay there for some more days then, to settle things," Raidan advised.

"I was actually thinking to return soon," Gabriel replied, indicating his readiness to leave. "I’ve to go to Aurevalis soon, that’s why I want Amelie and Noah to be in the palace before that."

"Then, come home," Raidan stated, his voice softening. "I’ve been missing my grandson lately. Even your mother misses Noah," he added. "Tell Carlos that our condolences are with him."

"Is everything alright there?" Gabriel asked, changing the subject to inquire about the palace. "Idris was hurt. Is he better now?"

"Yes, he is," Raidan replied. "Casaio handled the situation well. Gabriel, what do you think about the next Alpha King’s position?"

"Dad, please. You know my answer," Gabriel replied immediately.

"Casaio is currently getting backlash for his recent choices and public perception," said Raidan, pressing the issue.

"So? He is clever; he will bring the people back in his favor soon enough. I don’t have any interest in serving the people," Gabriel gave his decision once again, resolute in his path toward freedom. "My own life is messed up enough, so I just want peace in it."

"Alright. Take care of yourself and Amelie. I’ll hang up now," Raidan stated, accepting Gabriel’s final answer for the time being.
