Hiding His Baby: The Alpha's Rejected Mate novel Chapter 23

Chapter 23: Suzanne’s lie 

Suzanne had the duty of cleaning the elite group’s floor that day.She was so tired to even move a muscle but she didn’t have any options.She has to complete the task given to her otherwise she will get punishment.

It was all very new to her.

The work and the punishment.

She was a free rogue wolf before who used to work hard to live her life.She was happy with that but it all changed suddenly when she was captured by the alpha of the shadow eclipse pack.

He made her the slave of the pack along with her new friend, Athen.

She is a lovely girl who was pregnant.She was her only friend and she was very caring.

So, Suzanne also promised to herself to take care of her.

Hence sometimes she does Athena’s part of work as well.

"What are you going to do about that new pregnant slave?"

Suzanne stopped at her track after hearing that sentence.She looked around to find herself in front of the office room of the alpha’s.She gulped in fear but didn’t want to leave until she heard what they were talking about because they were talking about Athena.She quickly masked her scent and perked her ears to listen better.

Her heart was beating loudly.

"What else? I might need to kill her pup because I don’t want to raise my enemy in my own pack.Who knows if that turns out to be an alpha‘s pup? I don‘t want to take risks."

Suzanne heard Derrick’s heartless words and her heart fell.She will never let that happen! 

"What about her? You don’t know who she is either.If that pup belongs to an alpha, there are possibilities that she belongs to a high rank as well before she became a rogue."

Suzanne heard another voice which she didn’t quite recognize.

"If that’s the case I will kill her as well but I am going to enjoy her before that.Everytime I see her, I get hard down there."

She heard Derrick’s disgusting words and felt utter anger.She was so angry that she didn’t realise what she did next.

"You won’t do anything like that!"

She barged inside the room and announced that with confidence.

There were two people in the room.

The alpha and the beta.

They both looked at her in shock before anger filled their features as well at her gut.

They felt disrespected by her sudden interruption and the fact that she was eavesdropping angered them the most.

"How dare you come here, you bitch! Do you wanna die?"

Derrick growled at her while glaring dangerously.

His canines were coming out.

It scared her but she didn’t show it on her face.

"You won’t kill me because I know something which you would like to know." Suzanne said with her head held high.

"What are you talking about, bitch?"

The beta snarled furiously as well as he waited to hear her speak up.

"Here you are talking about killing her but if you know who she is, the ground beneath you will shake up."

Suzanne said with a powerful look on her face.She felt powerful at that moment when she saw the look on their faces.

They were intimidated by her words, just the way she wanted.

"What are you talking about?"

"Who is she?" Derrick and his beta asked at the same time.

Their eyes were filled with a little amount of fear.

At that moment, Suzanne knew that she had them where she wanted them.

Now she has to play her final card and they are going to leave Athena alone until they figure out how to get out of that hell hole.

"She is the daughter of a very big alpha who can destroy you in a flick of his fingers."

She dropped the bomb and waited for their reaction.

Their eyes widened as soon as they heard her.

"Wh…which alpha?" Derrick asked as he stood up from the chair he was seating on.

"That’s for me to know and you to wait to know when you dare to even touch her." Suzanne said with a smirk "She ran away from her pack because the pack is more ruthless than yours.

But that doesn’t mean her father let her go.

He is still looking for her everywhere.

The moment you do something to her, trust me it will take me a moment to reach the news to them and you decide what will happen to you next."

Suzanne said with a small shrug of her shoulders, making them glare at her.

No matter how much they were intimidated by her words, they were still angry at her for scaring them like that.

"Are you kidding with us?" The beta asked with a frown but Derrick was insulted and furious.

"Do you think we are stupid, bitch? You think you can come and lie to us about anything and w e will believe you? That‘s not going to happen!" Derrick said with a snarl.

"If you don’t believe me, you can bring a witch and smell her blood scent.You will smell the power in her blood and then you will believe me!"

Suzanne challenged and that made them quiet.

They couldn’t beat the confidence in her tone.

"We will call a witch but that doesn’t mean she can still escape from being the slave of the pack.The time she is here, she has to do all the works as the slave and you too.She can’t escape it nor can you."

The beta announced while Derrick was too angry to say anything.

"You guys won‘t even touch her baby." She added that condition as well, making Derrick let out a growl in anger.

"Deal! You can go now and if we ever find out again that you are eavesdropping, we will punish you so badly."

Derrick announced in anger.

"Agreed!" She said before turning around to leave the room.

She was happy that she could stop them.She felt happy at that moment.

But it is gone now.

Suzanne‘s le Only worry filled her at that moment and she didn’t know how to come out.She has created a wave and she is getting entangled into it now.

"SUZANNE!"

She jumped at the loud voice and looked around in fear.She let out a sigh of relief when she saw the worried face of her mate.

"You scared me, Nathan." She let out a small chuckle.

"You scared me, Suzanne.I have been calling you for the past five minutes but you were completely lost.As if you weren’t here at all.Where were you lost?" Nathan asked with a frown.

"I was lost in some thoughts."Suzanne answered with a frown as well.She was deciding if she should share her worry with her mate or not.

"What thoughts?" Nathan asked with the same frown but his tone got serious.

"About Athena."

Suzanne at last decided to share with him.

Because at the end, she was his mate and they were supposed to share everything with each other.
