Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 728

Chapter 728: Once I finish this mission

Jeniva stepped into the living room, fully prepared for the mission. Her coat was neatly fastened, and her expression carried the focus of someone mentally reviewing every step ahead.

Dominick walked toward her and extended his hand, placing a smartwatch in her palm.

"What’s this?" Jeniva asked, slightly puzzled. She lifted her wrist to show him the watch she was already wearing. "I mean... I do have a watch."

"Take mine instead," Dominick replied. "It’s more advanced. The tracking system works directly through the satellite network, so locating you will be much easier."

Across the room, Evan leaned against the arm of the sofa, a faint smile playing on his lips as he watched the exchange unfold.

Jeniva examined the watch in her hand but still didn’t put it on.

"But... isn’t this expensive?" she murmured. "If anyone notices it, they’ll start asking how I managed to afford something like this."

"Then don’t let anyone notice it," Dominick said firmly. "Keep it covered under your sleeve. If that doesn’t work, put it in the pocket of your coat. I’m not taking any chances when it comes to your life."

Evan and Kavin exchanged a quick glance. Their grins slowly widened, clearly amused by what they were witnessing.

However, the moment Dominick’s gaze shifted toward them, both of them instantly straightened up, their expressions returning to perfect neutrality as if nothing had happened.

"Is everything ready, Evan?" Dominick asked.

"Yes, Your Highness," Evan replied promptly. "The vehicle is prepared. It will stop at the exact location where Jeniva’s presence is required. From there onward, she’ll have to proceed alone and carry out the mission."

Dominick gave a brief nod.

"Good. Wait for us outside," he instructed. "I need to say a few words to Jeniva."

Evan bowed respectfully and left the room without another word. Kavin, who had been standing nearby, also walked away, pretending to check something on his tablet as if he suddenly remembered some important task.

Within moments, the living room fell quiet.

Jeniva turned her gaze toward Dominick, studying his face for a second.

"You’re worried about me," she said softly. "It’s quite evident on your face, Prince Dominick."

Dominick didn’t deny it. His eyes remained fixed on her. "That’s because I’ve never felt this way before," he admitted.

"I’ll be fine," Jeniva said confidently as she slipped the smartwatch into the pocket of her coat. "In fact, you’re going to praise me once I finish this mission."

The certainty in her voice made Dominick smile faintly. "I trust you," he replied.

He hadn’t wanted things to unfold this way. But because of Black, circumstances had forced his hand. In truth, Jeniva hadn’t wanted it either.

For a brief moment, neither of them spoke. Her wolf, Eva, also wanted to them to feel their mate’s scent before departing.

Almost as if responding to the same unspoken thought of their wolves, both Dominick and Jeniva embraced each other.

They simply held each other, leaning into the familiar comfort of each other’s pheromonal scent, letting the moment settle their restless emotions.

After a few seconds, Dominick was the first to pull away.

"Let’s go outside," he said.

He turned and began walking ahead of her. As he moved, he briefly brought a hand to his chest, pressing it there for a moment before lowering it again.

Jeniva followed silently behind him, trying to steady her own nerves.

However, when Dominick suddenly stopped without warning, she wasn’t prepared.

Her brows knit together as she reread the lines once more. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

’I’ll ask Dominick directly,’ she thought. But the idea made her hesitate. ’Won’t that feel like prying into his private life? I shall not do that. If he truly is seeing someone... then I’ll simply wait for him to tell me himself.’
