Pursuing My Rejected Alpha

369 The Alpha Boy And The Non-Alpha Girl

News regarding the birth of the Alpha heirs of the Infinite Eclipse Pack was received with mixed reactions by the werewolf community.

After returning from West Coast City, Ronan and Lucien locked themselves up inside their apartment and entertained no guest, as the tradition required.

The problem was that these were two men with no experience in child rearing, so it was natural when everyone in the pack was worried about them.

Adele Silverback was anxious to hear the babies’ cry every day.

“As long as they still cry, then they are still alive,” she claimed.

Apparently, she did not dare to expect too much from her son and son-in-law. As long as they did not end up killing the babies, it was already good enough.

Days passed by quickly, and before long, the four weeks were over. The minute the Alpha ended their seclusion, guests came rushing like a wave of tsunami.

To Ronan’s greatest dismay, the frequently asked questions were :

“Are the babies still alive?”

.....

“Do you remember to feed them?”

“Do we need to call a healer???”

To that last question, Ronan had a perfect answer, “Sure. You will need a healer soon if you don’t stop asking stupid questions!”

In the end, Ronan Silverback kicked all of them out for being noisy and made a list of approved visitations for a week.

Even that was not an easy task because everyone was dying to meet the babies. Particularly the Alpha’s parents and the Luna’s parents and sister, of course.

Unable to make a sound decision regarding which side of the family got to visit first, and also because there was some revelation to be done regarding the babies, all of them were invited to come at the same time.

And all of them did. They waited outside the Alpha’s apartment way before the allocated time arrived.

When Ronan opened the door, the Alpha had to prevent the anxious family members from rushing in.

“Slowly!” He shouted. “Mom, please!!!”

Once they got past Ronan, they all ran as silently as they could inside the apartment.

In the living room, Lucien was entertaining the two precious heirs inside a basket.

“Ooooooohhhhh,” the women immediately squealed from delight.

Adele picked up the little boy and Alice picked up the little girl.

“Oh my Goddess, look at how beautiful he is,” Adele cooed. “He looks just like Ronan when he was little!”

The little boy broke into an adorable giggle when he came face-to-face with friendly strangers.

“Baby, I am your grandmother,” Adele said while peppering kisses all over the baby boy. “You precious, precious child.”

That reaction was expected from the alpha baby boy.

The problem was the baby girl, who was not an alpha.

As soon as Alice lifted the small baby in her arms, she knew.

Her eyebrows were pulled up from surprise, but she said nothing.

Instead, she held the very quiet girl close to her heart and cuddled her like she was the biggest treasure she had ever come across.

The little girl extended her small hands and pressed them against Alice’s cheeks. Alice did not want to cry, but she ended up spilling tears upon meeting her granddaughter.

“Sorry,” she mumbled.

Annalynne ended up passing her some tissues and at the same time steal the baby from her arms.

Gordon was there when the babies were born, so he naturally knew that the baby girl was not an alpha.

Annalynne had no idea at all. She was just happy to welcome a beautiful baby girl among them.

“Oh, Goddess!” she squealed from delight.

“Look, Mom! She looks like a mini-me!”

Alice smiled.

“Technically, she looks like Lucien.”

Although both babies inherited Ronan’s dark hair and greenish-blue eyes, the boy looked a lot like Ronan and the girl looked a lot like Lucien.

That being said, the girl was very beautiful. And she was also very quiet.

Lucien opened his mouth a few times to tell both sides of the grandparents and also Annalynne that the girl was not an alpha pup, but he was unable to find the right moment.

It was not until they swapped babies that Adele and Dane were overcome with surprise.

“Oh, she is...” Adele gasped.

Dane did not say anything, but everyone could see the surprise in his eyes.

Protectively, Lucien took the baby girl back into his arms.

“Sorry to disappoint,” he said with an icy tone. “Our precious daughter is not an alpha.”

“Nevertheless, she is our daughter and we love her very much. We hope that all of you can come to terms with this surprising news,” Ronan continued while he put his arms around Lucien and their daughter.

For a while, no one said anything.

And then, Annalynne put her hands against her waist and exclaimed loudly, “What the hell? Does anyone have any problem with my awesome, most beautiful niece???”

“I don’t,” Adele said with a shrug. She took the baby back from Lucien, having not cuddled her long enough before she was taken away by the protective parent.

“I don’t care whether she is an alpha or not. My granddaughter is so beautiful. A perfect mix of Ronan and Lucien. She is going to grow up to be the prettiest girl in the whole werewolf community!”

“I obviously don’t care,” Alice too said. “I fall in love with her at the first sight. Anyone who has anything bad to say about her will have me as their opponent.”

Gordon pulled Lucien and Ronan into a hug.

“Congratulations for the adorable children, you two. Alpha or not, it doesn’t matter.”

Annalynne, Adele, Alice, and Gordon all said their piece of approval.

Only one person had yet to voice his opinion.

Unwittingly, eyes were directed to Dane Silverback, who did not look like he planned to say anything.

His lips were pulled into a thin line and the severe lines that were etched on his face seemed to be even deeper than before.

To the greatest disappointment of everyone in the living room, he cleared his throat and then with a hoarse voice, said, “Excuse me.”

Ronan’s father left without looking back.
