Pursuing My Rejected Alpha

The seasoned journalist flashed him a sweet smile and then continued, “I am just asking because of some pictures that I found online this afternoon. Would Mr. Silverback like to have a peek?”

What pictures?

Of Lucien and Kinnon together?

The Alpha’s face darkened at the very thought.

Before Ronan answered with a yes or no, Miss Baker already whipped out her phone and showed Ronan the pictures that she was referring to.

Those who were present during the interview could see the ripples in Ronan Silverback’s gaze when he feasted upon the ungodly images.

The Glamvision team probably expected him to lose his composure and go rampant right then and there.

Scandalous news coverage about the angry CEO was something worth dying for.

.....

To Ronan’s credit, he regained his composure after only a moment of perturbation. He straightened his coat and then leaned back in his seat with his fingers neatly intertwined in each other before him.

“Kinnon, Lucien, and I are childhood friends. I see no problem with them hanging out without me. Do you?”

Miss Baker was slightly surprised at the sharp retort.

“No, of course not,” she said with a nervous smile.

The woman then tucked away her phone and continued with the scripted interview questions.

Although the storm passed safely, Mara Keenthorne who watched from the side was seething with rage.

She couldn’t believe it.

Sure, Ronan Silverback had suffered from worse attacks during his other interviews, but all of them were business-related. Ronan practically aced all the interviews! This was the first time he had to answer this kind of private question!

Having dealt with Ronan and Lucien a lot back when the news about Lillian Woodland came to the surface, Mara knew how strongly they felt for each other.

And also how many times their relationship had had to suffer time and time again.

The Glamvision team was too ruthless!!!

This was the first and last interview with Ronan Silverback that Mara granted Glamvision, EVER!

On top of it, what pictures did she show Ronan, exactly?

And how did these pictures even exist beyond Mara’s knowledge???

The PR Head was about to go insane.

The interview ended in a little over an hour, after which Miss Baker and her team from Glamvision left the corporate headquarters.

It was already quite late by then, so Ronan grabbed his briefcase and left with Milroy in tow.

Mara did not go back to the pack house immediately. Instead, she returned to her office and started to search frantically online for the supposedly scandalous pictures.

Whatever they were, the woman secretly hoped that the pictures were doctored.

Unfortunately, as she soon found out, the pictures were real.

Mara did not even need to search deep inside the sea of information.

Entering the keyword “Lucien Clearwater” was enough to conjure pictures of the man’s activities throughout the day.

There were a few snapshots of Lucien and Kinnon in each other’s arms. And Kinnon gently pressing a kiss on top of Lucien’s head.

Oh, no.

Judging from the amateur quality and also the angle of the pictures, it was clear that they were taken secretly without Lucien’s or Kinnon’s knowledge.

It must be Lucien’s fans or anti-fans who stalked him, took the pictures discreetly, and then posted them online.

Being another handsome and rich business tycoon, Kinnon had his own fans. Some of them must have seen them together before, probably in an intimate setting.

Mara’s fingers flew over the keyboard like a proficient dancer.

And yes, look at that, she could find pictures of them from around a year ago, going on outings as a family with little Ralph Youngshaper. They looked so sweet and compatible as a couple.

Although Kinnon never announced their plan to get married outside of the werewolf community, the loving gazes that the two men shared unmistakably spoke for a deeper relationship.

Mara rolled with her eyes.

The pictures invited a lot of reactions from the public.

The first group maintained a very positive view of Lucien and said that the man was just reminiscing about the past with Kinnon.

The second group was blessed with a dramatic personality and said that Lucien was starting to doubt his decision to marry Ronan.

After all, Ronan was implicated in so many scandals in the past. What if he was unable to treat Lucien right after they got married?

The third group condemned Lucien for cheating right away.

They were unmistakably Ronan’s fans.

Sigh.

It did not matter whether Kinnon was a better partner than Ronan or not.

Or whether Lucien wanted to keep a friendship with Kinnon or not.

The fact was that Lucien was about to get married to Ronan, so Lucien should have known better than to meet Kinnon alone.

And now they had this huge mess.

In the end, Mara closed her laptop and groaned into her palms.

Oh, why? Why?

Just why must the Luna meet up with Alpha Kinnon?

Did he not know the rivalry between the two packs? And how these two Alphas saw each other?

Heck, they almost killed each other during the war!

Sure, the pictures only showed the two men harmlessly hugging each other, but what would people think about it??? And the pack members from both sides???

Worst of all, what would Ronan think about it???

Mara facepalmed and groaned from heartaches.

The next morning, Ronan went to work as usual.

There was a look of desolation in the Alpha’s eyes, one that could be interpreted as disappointment, sadness, and resignation all in one.

Milroy was shaken with fright.

He had never seen his boss look this way.

The man barely set his briefcase on his desk before he gave Milroy an instruction early in the morning.

“There is a meeting at Ravenfall City that I must attend today at 2 PM. Book me the flight as soon as possible.”

When Milroy heard it, he almost gasped audibly.

The purification ceremony at North Ridge Forest was to take place in two days!

Swallowing his saliva nervously, the younger assistant then asked hopefully, “A-Alpha, shall I book the return flight back to Hapsborough City at night? Or maybe the following night?”
