Chapter 9: My Wolf responds to her
"Why do you want to keep me with you when I'm not even your mate?" Amelie asked. "I mean... I understand that I was the one who held onto you. But you're the Alpha Prince. You can have a woman of your status by your side."
Gabriel leaned back slightly, a smirk playing on his lips. "And what exactly is my status?" he mused.
Amelie scoffed. "You're insanely rich," she pointed out. "Meanwhile, I have nothing. I have to take care of a lot of things, and..."
She stopped abruptly. She couldn't bring herself to say it—to reveal that she was pregnant.
"You can do everything from hrre," Gabriel replied. He didn't answer her important question why he wanted her to be by his side when she wasn't his mate.
Amelie gaped at him upon hearing his nonchalant response.
"I don't have a wolf. Why would the Alpha Prince want a worthless wolf like me to be by his side?" she questioned.
"Hmm. Something about you attracts me toward you. I need to know what it is. I hope that's enough to answer your question. I don't care whether you have a wolf or not. It's not like I've to send you to a battle," Gabriel mused, lowering down himself so that his face would be at her level.
Amelie pursed her lips together as her fists curled. "Your e-eyes..." she stuttered and paused.
