Alpha King’s pregnant Ex-Luna

Tony and Ben exchanged a look before they glanced back over their shoulders helplessly. As they stared at Alpha Kilian behind them, they both nudged each other, signaling the other to speak. Right then, Alpha Kilian lifted his eyes and pinned his gaze on them. He murmured, “Well?”

“Of course, we’re eating!” Tony asserted with a smile.

Subsequently, they both headed over to the man.

Just when they had reached him, Tony abruptly clutched his stomach. “Oh, no! My stomach hurts! You two go ahead and eat. I’ll be back in a moment!”

After saying that, he sprinted off like an arrow without waiting for them to respond. Left there all alone, Ben wavered between taking a seat and leaving.

Tony Jackson !

Inhaling deeply, he ventured, “I’m also-” “Sit down!”

Following that, Ben plopped right down on the chair.

In the next instant, the housekeeper came with breakfast and placed it before Ben .

Alpha Kilian continued eating his breakfast methodically, his movements exceedingly elegant with the knife and fork held in his long and slender fingers. He had his sleeves rolled up three-quarters, rendering his wrist an artwork beneath them.

At that very moment, he appeared just like those nobility on television. Ben eyed him, having something to say yet hesitant to speak.

Just then, Alpha Kilian cast a glance at him. “Are you not eating?”

Only then did Ben pick up his knife and fork and started eating as well.

Neither of them spoke, merely eating silently. Nonetheless, Ben knew that Alpha Kilian must have something to say to him.

“How did you sleep last night?” Alpha Kilian asked out of the blue. “Terribly.”

At his answer, Alpha Kilian lifted his eyes and looked at him. “Oh?”

“It’s been a long time since I last shared a room with Tony. We fought over the blanket last night,” Ben replied.

When Alpha Kilian heard that, the corners of his mouth turned up.

“Why did you arrange for me to share a room with him yesterday?” Ben questioned suddenly. Speaking of that, Alpha Kilian studied the little boy. “Is there a problem with that?”

“I think you’ve got something to say,” Ben remarked with his eyes trained on the man.

Instead of waiting for him to voice his questions, it’s far better to take the reins and end this stalemate as soon as possible!

Sure enough, Alpha Kilian studied him intently after he had said that.

Upon seeing that he was seemingly mulling it over, Ben knew that he had made the right choice.

A while later, Alpha Kilian fixated his eyes on him. “Do you realize the gravity of the incident yesterday?”

Ben seemed to have surmised that he would bring that up. He pondered for a moment before admitting, “Yeah, I realize it now.”

At his easy admission, Alpha Kilian ‘s brows furrowed. “What did you realize, then?”

“The world is a dangerous place. As such, one has to be powerful enough. I’ve got to become stronger before I’ve got a say in things.”

Alpha Kilian was promptly rendered speechless.

Contrarily, Ben wore a solemn expression on his face. “What’s wrong?”

Alpha Kilian took a deep breath. “Ben , I know the two of you might have learned plenty about the outside world with Thalia. It was your choice to join Darknetz, and I won’t stop you from doing so. But regardless of that, you and Tony are both my children. To me, your safety supersedes everything. Therefore, I can’t disregard that.”

While listening, Ben nodded. “I know.”

“You’re right in that one has to be powerful enough, and the incident yesterday proved that. Even if you both are sufficiently smart, you’re still weak before absolute power. Thus, I hope the two of you only execute your plans if you can ensure your safety, no matter the situation.”

Ben merely stared at Alpha Kilian without saying anything. He knew all those principles, but it was the first time someone ever laid it out for him so bluntly and clearly.

For a moment, he didn’t quite know what to say.

“You may discount my feelings, but do you also not consider Nelly ‘s feelings? What is to become of her if something happens to either of you? And what is she to do?” Alpha Kilian queried.

At once, Nelly ‘s countenance popped into Ben ‘s mind.

He was fully aware that she actually placed great emphasis on relationships despite appearing taciturn and indifferent. If something really happens to us… Verily, I can’t imagine it.

At that instant, he was inexorably brought into an illusory atmosphere by the man.

After a brief pause, he murmured, “I understand what you mean now, Daddy. In the future, we’ll first consider our safety at all times.”

It was only when Alpha Kilian heard that did he nod in satisfaction.

“Then, I’ll drive you both to the airport tonight after dinner,” he declared.

Following Tony ‘s appearance, Ben breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he wanted to roll his eyes at his brother.

What a timely appearance! But then, he’ll indeed save me much trouble since he’s facing off the man now.

Sure enough, Alpha Kilian ‘s gaze shifted to Tony as soon as the latter appeared. He scrutinized his son through narrowed eyes. “You both found leads? What kind of leads?”

Tony walked over and sat down across from the man. At that moment, the housekeeper brought another set of breakfast over and placed it before him.

Tony was in no hurry to eat. Instead, his gaze remained on Alpha Kilian . “I don’t mind telling you, but I’ve got a stipulation.”

Alpha Kilian narrowed his eyes a fraction. Without Tony having to voice it, he knew what the boy was planning.

“Spit it out!”

“Does it mean that you’ve agreed, then?” Tony asked.

Alpha Kilian swept a gaze over him. “That depends on whether your information is worthy of such an exchange!”

“If that’s your answer, I don’t dare tell you,” Tony threatened. In response, Alpha Kilian frowned. “Are you bargaining with me?”

“I’m fighting to share a community of interests with you, Daddy. Only then can the benefits of our collaboration be maximized. Your actions are only an exercise in futility!”NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Upon hearing that, Alpha Kilian chortled lightly. “You know the meaning of a community of interests?”

“I know a little bit. Of course, it’s nothing compared to you, Daddy,” Tony replied, his voice tinged with a hint of flattery.

After all, he still needed to curry favor with the man if he wanted to stay there. At that, Alpha Kilian snorted.

“So? Do we have a deal?” Tony inquired, his eyes twinkling.

Alpha Kilian deliberated for a while before he quirked an eyebrow. “Deal.”

When Tony saw his decisiveness, he grinned from ear to ear. “You said that, so you can’t go back on your word!”

“Of course!” Alpha Kilian nodded.

Tony contemplated for a moment before he started, “This is what happened. When Thalia came here on a mission a few years back…”

After briefly telling the man everything, he looked straight at him. “That’s all to it, and we only learned about it two days ago.”

By then, Alpha Kilian ‘s eyes had been narrowed into slits. “So, your grandfather was really a member of Midnight fang pack ?”

“Yes, that has been confirmed now. But it’s uncertain whether the truth of his demise has anything to do with Midnight fang pack ,” Tony answered.

“According to what you both said, Midnight fang pack is callous and cold-blooded. How could they possibly allow someone so talented to leave so easily?” Alpha Kilian muttered.

“Thus, you share our sentiments as well, Daddy?” Tony queried. “Isn’t that obvious?” Alpha Kilian chuckled softly.

“That’s what Ben and I think, too. We only lack a witness right now!” Tony stated. “Don’t tell Nelly about this first,” Alpha Kilian urged.

“Uh…” Tony faltered.

Noticing that his expression seemed off, Alpha Kilian frowned slightly. “You told her?”

Speaking of that, Tony stammered in a whisper, “After learning about it that day, I was worried that Nelly would be duped, so I panicked and told her about it.”

Words eluded Alpha Kilian .

“I was worried that those people from Midnight fang pack would lie to her, so I told her about it for her to better guard against them!” Tony defended.

“Judging from her personality, she would only risk herself all the more to find out the truth after learning about that.” Alpha Kilian had no doubts about it.

Likewise, that possibility occurred to Tony . “Therefore, we’ve got to find her even faster and stop her!”

Alpha Kilian nodded firmly.

Tony leaned forward and trained his eyes on the man. “So, do you have news of her now, Daddy?” When that came up, Alpha Kilian lifted his gaze and eyeballed him. “Don’t worry about that anymore!”

The instant Tony heard that, he sat upright. “What do you mean by that, Daddy?” “What do you think?”

“Hey, are you going back against your word, Daddy?” “What do you mean?”

“You promised not to send us back!”

“Yeah, I didn’t say I’m sending you both back.” “Then, what are you trying to say?”

“Just stay here and don’t go anywhere,” Alpha Kilian ordered.

“And that means?”

“It’s best that you both stay within this castle before we find Nelly .” “This is illegal confinement, Daddy!” Tony exclaimed.

“There are no delicious foods and drinks if it’s illegal confinement,” Alpha Kilian countered, his eyes fixated on him.

“Daddy!”

“Either go back or stay here and don’t go anywhere. It’s your choice!” Alpha Kilian asserted, holding his gaze.

Tony was promptly left without a retort. He stared at the man wordlessly.

Well, a wise man adapts to the circumstances, so we’ll stay and see how it goes. No longer saying anything, he lowered his head and buried his head in the food. Just then, Alpha Kilian turned and looked at Ben at the side. “What about you?”

Ben couldn’t say anything else when even Tony had gone silent. He could only relent as well. Dipping his head, he ate docilely.

Relief suffused Alpha Kilian as neither of the children argued further. The three of them sat and ate together.

Sometime later, Alpha Kilian abruptly asked, “Are you two acquainted with Anonymous?” Cough! Cough!

Tony suddenly started coughing while eating. Ben similarly stilled for a second.

Narrowing his eyes, Alpha Kilian studied Tony .
