Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 623

Chapter 623: Theo, shut your mouth!

Gabriel sat on the balcony with Noah on his lap in the afternoon sunlight. It wasn’t strong but mild.

The Moon Goddess didn’t come to me, he mused, staring out at the horizon. I made a selfish choice, but it feels as though the heavens have been equally unjust. Why should she be punished for being the only one who dared to love?

A soft snuffle broke his reverie. Gabriel lifted the edge of Noah’s cap, finding the boy fast asleep, his tiny face softened by dreams. Smiling faintly, Gabriel stood and carried the sleeping weight back into the bedroom. He lowered Noah into the crib, ensuring the blanket was tucked just right.

"Your Highness," Ashna’s quiet voice drifted from the doorway, "Carlos is here to see you."

"Stay with Noah," Gabriel instructed, gesturing toward the crib. "He’s deep in his nap."

He stepped out into the hallway, his posture shifting from a father to a prince as his eyes landed on Carlos. The man offered a respectful bow.

"I thought you would stay another day at Karmen’s place," Gabriel said, settling into the sofa.

"I wanted to, but I didn’t have any of my things with me. Besides, I didn’t want to overstay my welcome and disturb his family," Carlos answered, his tone practical as he took the seat opposite the Prince. He leaned forward slightly, his expression growing more serious. "Gabriel, did you return the sword to the grave?"

"No. Why do you ask?"

"Its blade carries a heavy power. I was curious where it ended up," Carlos stated.

"Amelie suggested I shouldn’t disturb the grave a second time. I decided to keep it," Gabriel explained.

"I see. Just make sure you keep it hidden, especially from the witches. You know how quickly word travels. A blade like that is a magnet for the kind of people you’d rather not have at your door," Carlos advised, his voice dropping to a cautious whisper.

Gabriel narrowed his eyes, sensing the unspoken warning beneath his friend’s words. "What exactly are you referring to, Carlos? Be clear with me. And why would the witches even want it? The blade can annihilate them."

"To harness its power," Carlos answered. "Mona will keep quiet about it as I bound her with a magical promise. As for the others, you have to make sure they never speak of it," he added. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Gabriel nodded in understanding. "I will make sure no witch finds out about it," he assured him.
