Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 640

Chapter 640: Thought you hated Amelie

Sage fastened the apron around himself and washed his hands in the sink.

"We could have ate outside," Katelyn said. "You attended so many meetings. Aren’t you tired?" Her elbows rested on the kitchen’s counter as she looked at Sage with a pouted face.

"I’m tired. But I wanted to cook tonight’s meal for us," Sage answered. "Why don’t you rest for some time until the dinner be ready?"

"I’ll prepare the salad," Katelyn stated, standing straight. She was quick to reach the refrigerator when Sage’s hand slammed it shut, his body pressing on hers from behind.

"Sage," as she whispered, she tilted her head to find his lips brushing her neck sensually, but not kissing her.

"Just take rest, mate. You are more tired than me. I saw you running here and there since the morning," he stated.

Katelyn couldn’t argue and turned around. "Sure." But before walking away, she kissed his lips. Sage’s eyes slightly grew big before he pressed his own lips while his free hand moved to her waist, not letting her move. He had to pull away reluctantly a few seconds later.

"If we don’t stop here, forget the dinner will happen," Sage muttered. His thumb brushed the loose strands away from her cheek. "Go." He took a step back, motioning his hand in the air.

Katelyn smiled and ran to the bedroom. She settled into the mattress before pulling out the phone from the pocket of the long coat, she removed earlier. She turned on her stomach and opened Amelie’s contact. Clicking on it, she dialed her number, waiting for the call to get answered.

As soon as it was picked, Katelyn greeted her excitedly. "Amelie, I’ve been missing you. Is everyone good there? And how’s my little nephew doing?"

"Noah is doing well and so is everyone," came Gabriel’s voice from the other side.

"Brother! What are you doing with Amelie’s phone?" Katelyn exclaimed.

"She’s not in the room. I just walked in and saw the device ringing, so I picked it up," Gabriel’s deep voice answered on the other end.

"Where is she? Tell her to call me when she’s free," Katelyn replied.

"Sure. But why do you sound so annoyed?" Gabriel chuckled, clearly hearing the edge in her voice.

"I’m not," Katelyn shot back defensively. "I’m hanging up. Just have her call me when she gets back."

Gabriel offered a simple hum of agreement before the line went dead. He set the phone down on the nightstand and began shedding his heavy outer layers, heading into the washroom to refresh himself. By the time he stepped back into the bedroom, Amelie and Noah had already returned.

"Did Kate call?" Amelie asked, checking her phone.

"Yes. You should give her a call back," Gabriel said. He shifted his gaze to Noah, who was currently treating the large bed like a personal playground, tossing and turning with a level of energy that only a child could possess.

Gabriel moved to the edge of the bed, the mattress dipping under his weight, while Amelie stepped out onto the balcony to return Katelyn’s call.

"Come here, Noah! Come to Daddy," Gabriel said, a soft smile touching his lips as he extended his arms. The little boy stopped his tumbling and simply stared at his father with wide, silent eyes, making no effort to move toward him.

"What? Are you still upset that I didn’t take you with me?" Gabriel chuckled, the memory of Noah’s stubborn, tearful protest earlier that evening fresh in his mind. "It was work, little one. I couldn’t take you to such a place."

Instead of being coaxed by the explanation, Noah pushed off on his small elbows. He began a determined crawl across the expanse of the mattress, deliberately sliding away from Gabriel’s reach and moving toward the far side of the bed in a silent show of defiance.

Gabriel froze, his heart skipping a beat. "Did you call me Daddy? Not Pa or Da, but Daddy?" 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
