Kidnapped and Rejected – The Return of Alpha’s Luna by Moon Claw

Chapter 264

The next day, Aspen told Jthat he needed to be at Daran’s Luna screening. Yet the last thing that Jwanted to do was to go to this thing and see Daran pick

his future wife.

“Aspen, you have grown out of control!”

She straightened her face and tried to talk to the boy in a serious voice, “You made a lot of people worried with your recent behavior. Do you know how mad your father will be when he finds out about this? So no, you won’t be going to that screening. And you will chwithand Lady Medline now!”

The boy pouted.

He fluttered into Janet’s arms and begged her in the cutest voice possible, “Please Mom…don’t be mad at me. I just want to hang out here for a bit longer. I promise! I will go back with you soon!”

Jlooked at his big innocent eyes and felt tempted to agree to anything that he wanted.

This boy was so hard to say no to.

“How long do you want to stay here?” she took a step back and asked, “There is gotta be a date. And we need to stick to it.”

“Well…” the boy blinked, “How about we stay till daddy picks out his new Luna?”

Jwas astonished, “Daddy?!”

“King Daran,” the boy grimaced sticking his tongue out. “He said that I could call him daddy.”

Jtook in a deep breath, “Aspen Lockhart, you do not call another man your daddy! How will Westin feel about this? It will break his heart!”

“It is just for fun! Please, Mommy, don’t tell Father. I swear I won’t do it again!”

Jdidn’t know how she should react to this.

Aspen had never shown this much affection to another man besides Westin. Daran was the only exception.

Was this the ties of blood?

“Mom?” the bov called her again. “What do you say? Can we stay till King Daran

picks out his Luna?”

Jpondered for a while and then sighed, “OK.”

This was probably the last tthat Aspen got to spend with his biological father.

After they went back to the Lycan’s land, they would never meet again.

She couldn’t take this last chance away from her son.

“Oh yeah!” Aspen looked so happy, “Then can we go now? I asked a maid, and she toldthat the screening is in the great hall downstairs.”

Jtook his hand and reminded him once again, “When we are with someone else,

you need to act like I am only your nanny, Janine Kurt. The others can’t find out about who I really am and that we are Lycans.”

“I understand, mommy.”

So they went downstairs to the great hall.

The doors were closed by the tthey got there. The soldiers guarding the door told them that the screening had already begun.

“I will inform the King that you are here,” said the soldier.

He went into the great hall and cback out moments later.

“You are free to go in now.”

Jthanked him and took Aspen going into the hall.

Facing the entrance was a throne and Daran was sitting in it. He was talking to a man standing in front of him when Jand Aspen cin.

“Good day, my King.”

Jcurtseyed to him, holding her head down, “I have brought the young master here.”

Daran raised his head. A strange look flickered across his face when he looked at Janet.

“Lady Kurt.”

He raised his lips into a strange little smile, “You are just on time. Come. And meet your father.”

…What?

Janet’s mind went totally blank.

Her father? What was Daran talking about?

In her trance, the man standing in front of Daran turned around to face her. He was in his late 50s, with a pale/thin face and soft brown eyes.

He didn’t look familiar to Jat all.

And he was also checking Jup with a shocked expression.

In a split of a second, Jsuddenly knew who this man was.

This man must be Lord Kurt, from Black Water Pack.

Supposedly the father of this fake identity that she made up.

Jalmost had a mental breakdown right on the spot. How the fuck did this happen?!

Medline told her that this cover–up was perfectly safe!

And the Kurts rarely left their own pack, so there would be no one to expose her fake identity.

But here Lord Kurt was, staring at her, with Daran watching them in the back.

She would be caught right in her lies if she didn’t do something!

“What is the matter?” Daran asked with a raised eyebrow, “Did you forget what your father looks like?”

Jpinched her own arm. The pain helped her to calm down.

Then she strode up to Lord Kurt and curtseyed, “Father, it is so nice to see you here.‘

Lord Kurt stared at her with an odd expression on his face.

Jraised her head looking back at him and said, “Why didn’t you letknow that you have arrived? We should find a tand catch up sometimes.”

She gave Lord Kurt a pleading look, hoping that he would play along with her act. It was a long shot but…

As long as this man didn’t expose her in front of Daran, she would find a chance to straighten things up with him later.

She couldn’t have Daran becsuspicious of her.

“Father? It is me. Janine.”

She blinked at the man, praying in her heart that he would caround.

“…Oh.”

Lord Kurt cleared his throat before finally speaking up:

“Right. Janine. I almost didn’t recognize you with…with this new dress that you are wearing.”

Great!

He went with her act!

Jlet out a long sigh of relief internally.

She didn’t know why this man didn’t choose to expose her…But she survived this crisis. She would thank him and explain everything later.

“So this is really your daughter?” Daran asked, his chin resting on his face.

“Yes, My King. This is my…youngest daughter,” Lord Kurt said. “As I was saying,

other daughters won’t be able to attend this screening. But since Janine is here, she can take her sister’s place and join the Luna screening.”

WHAT THE HELL???/

Janet’s jaw dropped.

She couldn’t hide the shock on her face.

Janet’s jaw dropped.

She couldn’t hide the shock on her face.

What were these two talking about now?!

“Oh, Lady Kurt, looks like that you didn’t know about this?”

The smile on Daran’s lips grew wider as he said:

“Your sister’s nwas on the list that the elders submitted to me. And since your sisters are unable to attend, I guess you will be my Luna candidate.”
