Kidnapped and Rejected – The Return of Alpha’s Luna by Moon Claw

Chatper 86

Chapter 86

30 minutes later, all Gammas were gathered in the stent where they had the meeting yesterday.

Jwas the last one to arrive. She wasn’t ready to face Daran after their quarrel. When she stepped

into the tent, she saw Daran talking to a man.

That man looked familiar.

“Janet!”

The man strode over with his arms spread wide open and pulled Jin for a big hug

“My gosh. It was so nice to see you again! You look radiating.”

Jwas slightly taken aback.

It took her a minute to realize that this man was Silver Claw Pack’s Alpha Jared, AKA Glen’s Alpha.

…Alpha Jared, it has been quite a while.” Jsmiled and hugged him back. “How have you been?”

“I am doing just fine. Thanks for asking,” Jared replied briskly, still holding Janet’s hands. “I heard what

Glen did. I am terribly sorry for that. So I traveled from Silver Claw Pack overnight just to be here to-”

Daran cleared his throat deliberately, cutting Jared off.

He cast a dark look at Jared and Janet’s holding hands before saying coldly, “Alpha Jared, one apology

is not enough.”

“Yes, I know. And that is why I cover myself to make up for all of your loss. And to make sure that

Glen is sentenced justly…‘

“Make up for our loss?”

Daran walked up to him step by step, his voice echoing boomingly across the tent, drawing everyone’s

attention.

“That is an easy way to say. Thanks to your Gamma, we lost thousands of people’s lives, soldiers and

civilians. You can’t put a number on our loss! And let’s not forget about one thing-”

Daran narrowed his eyes into slits.

-We haven’t ruled out your suspicion yet.”

There was a ringing silence among them.

Jared’s face turned cold, “What do you mean?”

The two men stood face to face, both of them tall and sturdy, glaring at each other with sharp eyes.

Tension was quickly building up between them.

“Well.”

Daran sneered.

“Maybe Glen was working for the Rogue King with your connivance. And that makes the entire Silver

Claw Pack—including you–a traitor…”

“Daran!”

Jsnapped, clenching her fists.

She felt that Daran was being unnecessarily aggressive here.

They all heard Glen and Veronica’s testimony, Glen betrayed them for personal reasons. It was most

likely that Jared had no idea of this.

And even if Jared was indeed aware of it, they couldn’t confront him until they had concrete proof.

Jared was an Alpha. There was no way to talk to an Alpha like that.

The others were also astonished by Daran’s bluntness.

Jeff let out an awkward laugh, “Alpha Daran, I really don’t think Alpha Jared is at fault here. And

seriously, I am tired of pointing fingers at this group. We should really be working together right now.”

Steven nodded to that hastily.

“That is what I think,” Jared said calmly.

He looked at Daran with a candid expression.

“I understand your doubt, Alpha Daran. But I swear to the moon goddess, I didn’t know what he was up

to. And not to defend my men or anything, us Silver Claw men are all very emotional and crazily

romantic. We fell in love easily. And would do crazy shit for love. But that doesn’t make us traitors… We

are just very dedicated to our partners.”

He winked at Janet.

Jreplied to him with a dry smile.

Daran saw their little interactions. His face darkened.

“I am sure that most men in this room are dedicated to their partners,” Daran hissed. “But your point

being?”

“Lettalk to Glen and that girl Veronica,” Jared said. “Our top priority is to locate the Rogue King,

right? They must know something. So letpersuade them to work

for us.”

Daran frowned with an expressionless face, pondering.

“I agree with Alpha Jared,” Jsaid. “Balvina just toldthat the fled rogues were gathered at the

Great Canyon 200 miles away. They were cheering for the Rogue King. From what we know, they

might be working on their next strike. We need to be proactive.”

Daran breathed out a sigh.

“Fine.”

He said sullenly.

“Let’s go to Glen and Veronica. And see what Alpha Jared can do.”

The group of them filed out of the tent.

Jfell a few steps behind to walk with Daran.

“What was that about?” Jwhispered.

Daran kept his eyes straight forward with a deadpan face.

“What was what?” Daran said icily.

“You. Going after Jared!” Jsaid in fume, “You knew at heart that he was

innocent. So why did you attack him? It makes no sense.”

“Do I need to explain all my decisions to you?” Daran’s jaw tightened. “As you have constantly

reminded me, you are not a member of my pack.”

‘Don’t be a baby, Daran. You were clearly going after him for personal issues

She paused.

And then something hit her.

“Wait…”

She slowly began, while thinking about her seemingly absurd theory.

“Daran…are you–jealous of Jared?”

Daran halted abruptly. Jalmost collided with his back.

Daran WAS jealous. For sure.

And he was acting like a baby.

A jealous little baby.

Jfelt an urge to laugh at him to his face. But that would infuriate him even further.

“Why are you grinning like an idiot?” Daran snapped.

Jtried not to laugh as she said, “You can’t deny that romance is a very important part of a

relationship.”

Daran glared at her, “So that is what you see in him? That is why you turneddown and chose him

over me?”

“Well…”

Jshrugged, keeping her tone light.

They looked at each other, staring deep into each other’s eyes.

“Why are you tellingthis, Janet?” he asked hoarsely after a pause.

“You started this conversation.”

Jlet out a light sneer.

“And what I think doesn’t really matter, right? Since…you know….we are just s*x partners.”

Jfreed herself from his grip, “Maybe because you have a type, Alpha Daran. Maybe you just love

to be challenged.”

She ignored the horrible look on his face and smiled:

“Now let’s go. We still need to talk to Glen and Veronica.”
