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

Chapter 30
“What?” Daran seemed perplexed, “she got these when she was a little girl?”
“Seems like so.”
Daran dropped down into his seat by the bedside and dismissed the doctor from the
room.
He stared at Janet’s closed eyes, deep in his thoughts.
She got these a long time ago?
But when?
When they were married, Daran never paid any attention to the marks and wounds on her body.
The only thing he knew about Janet was that she was a spoiled daughter in the Diaz’s family. Harper complained many times
about how rude and unreasonable her sister
was.
So how would Mr. and Mrs. Diaz let their beloved daughter freeze in the snow?
Now that he thought about it...Harper had some frostbites on her feet as well. But those came from the time Harper rescued him
in the forest.
So where did Janet get hers?
Before he realized it, Daran had already taken a hand to gently stroke down Janet’s long hair.
... How many secrets had you been keeping from me, Janet?
**
Because Janet and her soldiers were injured, the training was postponed for a few days.
Luckily Janet didn’t stay unconscious for too long. She woke up on the second day, just as the doctor had said.

When she gradually opened her eyes, she found a man sitting by her bedside while going through some flies in his hands.
Janet had to blink a few times to make sure that it was Daran.
She didn’t expect him to be here at all.
When they were married, he didn’t come to visit her at all when she had a cold.
What was he doing here now?
Daran looked up at this time and his eyes lit up with joy instantly.
“You are awake.”
He abandoned his files at once and came to sit on her bed side, “How are you feeling?”
He reached out a hand to feel her temperature on the cheek, but she tilted her head to avoid his touch.
“I’m fine,” Janet said.
Daran’s hand froze in the air.
And he withdrew his hand slowly, “I’m glad to hear it.”
After a short pause, he spoke up again, “So I asked the doctor to check on you were asleep...and I found some old frostbites on
your feet.”

Janet’s face turned cold right away hearing him said that.
“What about it?” she asked coldly.
“Where did you get those?” Daran asked urgently.
Janet closed her eyes in vex.
It had been so many years already...He didn’t care about it at all in the past.
So why bothered asking now?
How she got it?
It was pretty simple.
She got these frostbites when she risked her life–trying to save him in the woods when they were 8.
Janet still remembered all the details at that time.
Daran was still a naughty little kid back then.
One day when it was snowing heavily outside, he ran deep into the forest without telling anybody and got lost.
Nobody could find him, not even the most experienced soldier with the best sense of smell.
All Daran’s scent and tracks were buried by the snow.
It was her, Janet, who went into the forest and looked for him when nobody dared to.
Forced by Mrs. Diaz, she spent many days in the forest before. So she knew the forest
well.
Eventually, she found him under a giant oak tree, almost frozen to death.
Wrapped him in her coat, little Janet carried him on her slim shoulder and headed back home.

Daran was already taller than her back then. To keep his feet off the ground, Janet had to stand straight with all her might.
She even lost her shoes in the snow and didn’t have the strength to go back and pick them up.
It took her 5 hours before arriving at home.
She dropped down by the front door of the Diaz’s residence and passed out. Her feet were all covered by frostbites.
Yet, when she woke up, Daran acted like he didn’t appreciate her efforts as well.
He treated her even more coldly than before. And that was when he started to become intimate with Harper.
It had been 12 years already.
...Why bothered asking now?
Janet opened her eyes again, the look on her face very cold.
“It was none of your business, Alpha Daran.” Janet replied aloofly, “I’m not your pack member anymore. So I’m not obligated to
answer any of your questions.”
Daran seemed irritated by her cold attitude.
“But...”
He was about to say something else when the door flew open, and a group of people poured in.
“Janet!”

Casper cried loudly in joy and rushed forward to hug Janet.
“Thank god you are alright!” He bent down to kiss on Janet’s forehead, “I was so worried.”
A bright smile came back to Janet’s face.
She raised her arms to hug Casper back, “I’m fine. How’s Balvina and Kass?”
“They are all doing great. They wanted to come here and visit you as well. But the doctor insists for them to stay in bed for a little
longer.”
Daran stood frozen by the bedside.
He seemed furious, especially after he saw how happy Janet was when she met Casper.
“Guards!” Daran snapped, “I said no visitors! Who let them in?”
Casper straightened his back and leered at Daran, “I’m Janet’s Alpha and her
brother, her closest person here. Unlike you, Alpha Daran. You are a total stranger to Janet. You have no right to keep us out.
Daran clenched his fists.
But he couldn’t find anything to argue back.
He rejected Janet himself. He was no longer her mate nor her Alpha.
It was his own doing.
Glen was among the group of visitors as well. He placed a bunch of flaming red roses in Janet’s arms and said gently:
“My Alpha have heard about what happened. But sadly, he still has business to do in our pack and can’t come to visit you. He
hopes you get better soon.”
Janet smelled the roses and smiled, “Thank you. How is Alpha Jared?”
“He is doing well,” Glen beamed. “He just misses you very much and can’t wait to join you in the training.”
Daran’s face turned even darker when he heard about these.

That Jared was such a fu ckboy!
Janet was stupid to fall for him!
Yet to his irritation, he heard Janet’s brisk voice saying, “That is great. I look
forward to seeing him here as well.”
“Janet,” Daran interrupted their conversation abruptly. “Don’t you want to know about the map?”
He had to stop them talking right now or he would be exploded with rage.
Janet immediately turned to him as he had thought, “Right, about the map. Have you found that man yet?”
“I have.”
Daran beckoned over a guard and asked him to bring everybody here.
15 minutes later, Baron, Bobbie, Maxie, and the man who handed them the map were all brought into the room by guards.
Daran stood in front of them with a dark look on his face and said:
“Today we are here to figure out the truth about the incident. Just know that I will not act on your favor just because you are my
pack members. Say the truth and you might still be pardoned for you crimes.”
His eyes traveled across each one of them.
“Who wants to begin?”
There were all different kinds of looks on these people’s face.
Baron and Bobbie seemed anxious.
Maxie lowered her head so nobody could see her face clearly.
The man looked as though he was going to shit his pants in fear.
Eventually, the man broke first and suddenly cried out in dread, “Alpha Daran! Please forgive me! I–I had no choice! Gamma
Baron made me to—”

“You rat!” Baron roared.
Daran gave guards a stern look and they immediately controlled Baron from his back
“Keep going,” Daran said icily.
“Baron asked me to give Gamma Janet the wrong map.” The man gulped nervously, “He knew the map will lead her to the cave.
Baron wanted her dead! He forced me with his power, so I didn’t have other choice-”
Suddenly a raging howl rang out in the room.
Casper rushed forward, his face twisted in rage. He grabbed Baron by the collar and dragged him to his face:
“You piece of shit–you dare to touch Janet?! I’m fuc king killing you!!”
Baron still had some bruises that he got the other day from Janet and Casper.
He was almost scared to death by Casper right now.
“No please! Listen to me!” Baron cried, “It wasn’t me! Somebody else instructed me to do it-”
“Liar!” Casper spat.
“No it’s true It was—”
Baron suddenly pointed at that female warrior Maxie.
“-Her!”
