Kidnapped and Rejected The Return of Alpha’s Luna (Janet and Daran) novel Chapter 263

Chapter 263

He didn’t use to be this cold and ruthless, which scared her a bit

Aspen tugged at Daran’s sleeve, Don’t scare Lady Kurt. I promise I will be very good with her.” 

The cold expression on Daran’s face was replaced by a faint smile. He patted the boy’s back and said, I know you will. So while I am in the meetings during the day, you just stay close to her, OK?” 

But can I come to the screening?asked the boy eagerly

What screening?Daran didn’t get it at first

You knowthe screening of your Luna! The elders asked you to make a decision soon, right? Can I come and meet with those women and offer my advice?” 

Janet widened her eyes abruptly

What did Aspen just say

Daranwas he getting married?? 

She and Medline were working on ways to approach Aspen again when the servants from the court came to knock on their door and said that the King wanted to see her She tried asking the servant what this was about. But the servants would not say

Medline tried to come with them. But she got stopped by the servants

Her heart was filled with worry and anxiety on her way to the packhouse

Why did Daran suddenly want to see her

Did he find out about who she was

Or even worsedid he find out who Aspen was

NoMy King, I don’t know why I am hereshe answered in a light voice, holding her head down. Did I do something wrong?” 

Before Daran could answer, Aspen jumped off his chair and rushed to Janet, crying, You are going to be my new nanny! Are you happy? You can stay in the packhouse with me all day long from now!” 

What

Janet snapped her head up, looking astonished

Daran wanted her to babysit Aspen

That was why he summoned her

Aspen shook her hand eagerly, Don’t you want to be my new nanny? Come on, say yes, will you?” 

Janet looked at the boy and gave him a soft smile

just 

Of course, she wanted to stay close to her child. It almost killed her to be kept apart from Aspen

If she was his nanny in this packhouse, she would have an authorized identity to stay with Aspen

And more importantly, it would be easier to sneak Aspen out of the packhouse this 

way

Of course, she would have to face the danger of her identity getting exposed, but that was a risk that she was willing to take

It would be my honor,she answered firmly without hesitation

Aspen let out a cry of joy immediately

Yet Daran spoke up at this moment in an icy voice, Not so fast. You have not passed 

my interview yet.” 

Janet’s heart skipped a beat as Daran stood up from his chair and walked up to her

He stood in front of her, staring down at her face with a searching gaze

What is your full name?he asked

JJanine Kurt.” 

She made up a fake name urgently

Janet held her breath nervously

Casper and Blavina

Her brother and oldtime best friend were there. She missed them so much

But she was not ready to face them yet

Would they recognize her

Probably not, since she was wearing a mask. But still… 

Before she could think of a reason to excuse herself, she heard footsteps behind her back. Casper and Balvina had come into the room

Daran, who is this?she heard Casper’s voice asking

Daran introduced them, This is Aspen’s new nanny, Janine Kurt. Janine, meet Alpha 

Casper and Luna Balvina.” 

Janet was left with no choice but to turn around and face them

She broke out in a cold, clammy sweat as she slowly raised her head and met Casper’s gaze

Casper rounded his eyes abruptly

And Janet instantly knew that her brother recognized her

She was wearing a mask

But he still knew that it was her

There was a special connection between them despite all disguises

Janine Kurt?Casper repeated in a strained voice

Yes. She is from Black Water Pack. Daughter of Lord Kurt,Daran said

Then he noticed the strange expression on Casper’s face and asked with a frown, What is the matter, Casper? Do you know her?” 

Janet quickly shot her brother a pleading look

No.” 

Casper cleared his throat and did his best to hide his shock, II simply find Lady Kurt a bit familiar. Probably because I have met her father before and she looks like her father” 

How can you tell that she looks like her father since she is wearing a mask?Daran raised an eyebrow, Oh, and speaking of which, Lady Kurt, can you lose your mask? I still don’t know what you look like.” 

Janet clenched her skirt nervously

No. She couldn’t take off her mask. Or he would recognize her

II’d better not, my king. I have a hideous burn scar on my face and I am afraid that it might scare you and the young master” 

You think I will get scared by a scar?Daran snorted

He fixed his sharp gaze upon her face as suspicion built inside of him

Why wouldn’t she take off that mask

Was it really because she had a hideous scar

Or did she have something else to hide

Lose the mask.” 

He deepened his voice and took a step forward, staring at her intensely, And let me see your face.” 

Please don’t make meshe pled in a trembling voice

Yet there was no sign of mercy in his cold eyes, Then you lose the nanny job. I can’t trust Aspen to a woman who doesn’t dare to show her face.‘ 

There was a strained silence in the room

Janet held her head down, her palms sweating

No. 

She couldn’t do that

She couldn’t let him find out that it was her

They left each other on such a horrible note. He hated her and said that he wished they never met again

He would be so enraged to find out that she faked her identity and came near him again… 

I don’t think that is necessary, my king.” 

Balvina broke the awkward silence, I believe that what happened to Lady Kurt’s face is very tragic. Why open up the old wound?” 

Yeah, Daran. Try to be more sensitive about it, will you?Casper nodded in agreement with his wife, Don’t make it hard for her.” 

It is for the safety of Aspen,Daran frowned

I don’t mind that she wears a mask!Aspen cried at once

He could tell that her mommy was in a difficult spot

Nobody could embarrass his dear mommy, not even Daran whom he liked very much

Balvina added. And I will talk to Lady Kurt personally, to make sure that she qualifies as a nanny. Will that ease up your mind?” 

Daran let out a frustrated sigh

Fine.” 

He gritted eventually

If that damn mask means so much to you, you can keep it on.” 

Janet cutseyed to him briefly and whispered, Thank you, my king.” 

I have got other meetings. I need to go.Daran checked the time and said, Luna < Balvina, so you will talk to her?” 

Of course. You can trust me with it

|| 

Daran nodded and hastily left the room

As soon as he was gone, the three adults let out a sigh of relief instantly
