Kidnapped and Rejected The Return of Alpha’s Luna (Janet and Daran) novel Chapter 24

Chapter 24 

Since Alpha had given his words, this drama was forced to come to an end

Janet was curious as of why Daran helped her this time

But there were too many people present. She didn’t want to confront him here

So she went to get another two clean plates for Kass and herself and grabbed some foods from the table

They found a quiet corner to sit down, away from all other people

Kass still seemed angry about what happened earlier

He leant close to her and whispered, Gamma, you should go to the soldier’s dining hall to have breakfast next time. The food might not be as good, but you don’t have to dine with these hypocrites.” 

Janet smiled and rubbed his hair, Good idea. Thanks for inviting me.” 

Kass beamed at her brightly

Those bystanders had dispersed. And Daran had walked up to his seat at the top and sat down

He didn’t spare Harper a single glance the entire time

Harper was still kneeling on the ground with tears on her face. She was baffled and overwhelmed

She couldn’t figure out why Daran suddenly became so harsh on her

Quick,Hellen nudged at her and hissed. Go to him. Now.” 

Harper bit her lips reluctantly

She didn’t want to face his wrath

But she had to figure out his sudden change of attitude

Struggling to pull herself up from the floor, Harper first to grab a plate of food: shrimp cocktail, smoked salmon, spring salad, and a glass of iced tea, all of which Daran’s favorite

Then she carefully came to sit with Daran. And pushed the plate over to him

Alpha” 

Harper peeked at his reaction

get you some breakfast. Please have some.” 

Daran averted his head and gave Harper a cold glare, causing her heart to jump up to her throat

He didn’t say anything harsh

But simply dragged the plate to himself and started eating. Harper quietly let out a long sigh of relief

She knew Daran couldn’t be mad at her for too long

Nevertheless, she was a beloved princess in Daran’s heart

Alpha, have you asked Janet about her room yet?” 

Harper gently tugged at the corner of his sleeves and asked with a pitiful voice

I know Janet is an important guest, and I respect her very much. But she didn’t have to use her power to toss me out of the room! She is such a bully” 

CRACK

The silver in Daran’s hands were dropped back to the plate

He turned to face her with an unreadable look on his face

What else to you want to say?he asked

Harper gulped down nervously

She had sensed a hint of danger behind Daran’s voice. But she still decided to take the risk and said

I just think she shouldn’t be such a tyrant all the time. I get itshe is a Gamma now. But it doesn’t hurt to show some respect to your rule from time to time. She is in our territory, for Christ’s sake.” 

Harper pouted in fume and added

Janet really doesn’t take you seriously, Alpha.” 

Daran narrowed his eyes at her

After a short pause, he spoke up slowly, You said Janet didn’t take me seriouslybut what about you, Harper?” 

Harper’s heart suddenly skipped a beat in panic

WWhat about me?” she stuttered

Her chin was grabbed by a large hand the next second

Do you take me seriously, Harper?Daran stared at her, asking with a dark tone. If you do, then why did you dare lie to me? Why didn’t you tell meit was you who put Janet in the basement in the first place!” 

All blood was drained from Harper’s face

Her lips twitched

No word could come out of her mouth

Thinking of a way to defend yourself?Daran asked murkily. I’ve talked to the maid and concierge. Saye your breath now.” 

II don’t know what you are talking about” 

Don’t you?” Daran snorted, Who gave you the power to disrespect Janet? Do you seriously believe that I’ll pardon all your behaviors just because you saved me once in the past? Well you couldn’t be more wrong about that!” 

Harper shivered in fear

She always thought Daran could tolerate all her mistakes

He was a cruel Alpha

But he always had a soft spot for her

This was the first time he intimidated her with his Alpha aura

AlphaHarper twitched her lips and tears streamed down her cheek. II’m sorry. I really am! I didn’t know what got into me, so I lied to you. Can you forgive me for this time?” 

Daran released her chin

I’ll give you one last chance,he said icily. Now leave me alone.” 

Harper didn’t need him to ask again before quickly getting up on her feet and escaping the scene

When she was gone, Daran closed his eyes and rubbed his temples

His heart was filled with rage when he heard Harper admitted to her lies

How could Harper use his tolerance to bully Janet like that

And what else had Harper done before

Daran suddenly remembered what those maids had said about Janet working as a maid when she was Luna… 

He clenched his fists till his knuckles turned white

Were those also Harper and Hellen’s doing as well

Daran raised up his head and searched for Janet in the dining hall

He found her in the corner

She was sitting with a handsome young man

That man just fed her a grape and she was giving him the brightest smile Daran hadn’t seen in ages

Then they stood up and left the dining hall together

A strong feeling suddenly surged up in Daran’s heart as he jumped up and rushed towards them

*** 

Janet and Kass left the dining hall and were going back to the training field

They just stepped through the door when a series of heavy footsteps came behind them

Janet!” 

Daran had caught up with them

He came to block their way and stared at Janet, Can I talk to you for a moment?” 

Janet raised an eyebrow, We have nothing to talk about.”
