Claimed

Killian felt his heart dropped. Probably this was a karma, but even if it was, why would it happen to his daughter? Why would his daughter have to suffer for his crime in the past.

He watched when Jasmine’s body was trembling and her face twisted in pain. His daughter, his only daughter felt the pain because of the severed mate bond and he couldn’t do anything to help her.

And before her body fell to the ground, it was actually Alex, who caught her first and carried her in his arms.

The king walked away, leaving Killian and alpha Lorent, who fell to his knees too because of the pain, while Valerie looked panic.

“You stay here. No one left this room,” Killian glowered at alpha Lorent and Valerie. He was so close of losing his control over his beast. He wanted to kill this man for hurting his little daughter.

Even though he knew, technically, it was Jasmine, who had rejected him, but with him telling her his full name, it sealed the deal. He wanted to reject the princess, but he didn’t know what to do, especially in front of the king and the other alpha. And what made Killian madder was the fact that Jasmine also knew about it and gave this man an easy way.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

He felt like a hypocrite right now, which didn’t help with how he handled the situation.

After giving them the warning and made sure the guards outside wouldn’t allow the two of them to leave, he followed Alex. He knew where he went.

Everything went so fast, they didn’t have time to intervene. But, even if they could, would they be able to make Jasmine changed her mind? Would it be alright to make her stay with her destined mate when that man had impregnated another

woman.

This situation was f**ked up in so many levels.

But, before Killian could catch up with Alex. Althea had approached him. She looked worried, because she saw Jasmine was being carried away by Alex.

“Wait, Killian.” Althea approached Killian against her better judgment. This must be the first time for her to strike a conversation first, of course, Killian immediately stopped and told her about what happened. She understandably looked shocked.

“I will go and see her,” she mumbled to herself and Killian could only nod dumbfoundedly, as if she was talking to him.

This was their first interaction. The longest moment when they talked after so many years and Killian still looked at her the same. There was this longing in his eyes and regret. He had been regretting everything.

However, he knew he couldn’t act on it, since this was the last chance he could be in his daughter’s life. If he couldn’t be a good mate for Althea, he had to be a good father for their daughter.

And now, when he watched how his daughter was in pain, it reminded him again of what he had done to her mother. If he could, he would rip his heart out of his chest to lessen her pain.

His daughter… she didn’t deserve this…

Killian stared at the close door, where alpha Lorent and Valerie were. He fought the urge to barge in and kill both of them, but he knew Jasmine wouldn’t be happy with that and it only caused trouble in this kingdom.

Althea and Alex wouldn’t appreciate that too.

“Why are you here? Where is momma?” Aiden tugged his sleeve and this snapped Killian back to reality.

GD.

He lowered his head and looked at the young boy. He had his mother’s eyes and every time he looked at him, he was always thinking of Althéa.

“Your mother has something to do, why don’t we go back to the party?” Killian grabbed his hand and then walked him back to the party.

“I don’t like here. This is Jasmine’s party, but she is not here.” Aiden pouted. “What happened earlier? Did alpha Lorent do something bad to Jasmine?”

Killian took a drink and gave it to him. It was not alcohol. “Kind of,” he replied nonchalantly.

Hearing that, Aiden huffed. “I am going to beat his a** if he made my sister cried.”

Killian chuckled.

“But, don’t tell my momma I said that, okay? Momma will not be happy if I said bad thing.”

Brushing strands of his short hair, Killian nodded. “Okay.”

Meanwhile, when Althea came approaching the bedroom, she could hear Jasmine’s cry and Alex was trying to console her.

The king was hugging her tightly in his arms, while she cried her heart out. She looked strong and calm when she rejected alpha Lorent, but Alex knew better how soft and sensitive Jasmine was.

“I know I am doing the right thing, but why my heart hurt so bad, father?” Jasmine asked between her cries. “I will feel so bad, awful, if I broke them for my selfish reason, but I couldn’t stop the pain.”

Alex listened to her without saying anything. He knew whatever words that he said, wouldn’t lessen her pain. More so, Jasmine needed time to process everything. She was too emotional right now. She only needed someone to listen to her.

Althea then entered the room and the moment, Jasmine saw her, she cried even harder and this broke Althea’s heart to pieces to see her daughter had to experience this kind of thing. She hugged her tightly and both of them sat with her the whole night.

With that, Althea’s birthday was ruined, she didn’t come out of the room again.

Alex returned to the party after a while, he ended it smoothly, but of course, Jasmine’s absence and the little commotion that Valerie created would be the gossip in town. Soon enough the rumor would spread around about what happened.

It was not difficult to deduct the possibility after all.

The next day, when Jasmine woke up, she felt the pain was not as worse as before.
