Ran Away Pregnant Came Back Alpha Heiress Novel

Chapter 235 I could only hope it wouldn't trigger any bad memories for Amelia. It was taking place in the capital, not Alpha Claude's pack lands, so hopefully she would be alright. Damien wouldn't be an issue, as he had avoided every Alpha Ball since he believed Amelia had died. I had no reason to believe that absence wouldn't continue. He'd become more recluse with cross-packs events since losing Amelia. He'd totally given up on joining the Alpha King's council. Which was probably for the best. "I have an idea," I said to Ian on the phone. "I don't have much faith," Ian said.

"But I am listening." "The Alpha Ball is coming up. I think Amelia would be perfect as your date." "You believe she would go with me?" Ian asked. "I'm positive," I told him. I would personally make sure that she did. Amelia's POV I was stir-crazy again. I'd read through most of my books on the shelf, and even the last three that I'd rented from the library. Maybe I could go back, though I was starting to think what I really needed was some kind of hobby, or perhaps a job. But what? I stood up, grabbed my latest three books and headed to the door, ready to head back to the library.

Yet, before I could reach it, the door opened on its own. No, it was Jake, and he stepped through. "Annette. We have to talk." With a sinking feeling in my stomach, I already knew what he wanted to talk to me about. It had to be last night. How had he heard it was such a bad date? Oh, Gods, Ian didn't call him, did he? For now, I played dumb, even though my inner panic was rising. "What is it, Jake?" "Your bad date last night," Jake said. I slumped at once. "Ian called me to tell me he didn't believe you were interested in him," Jake said. "I, of course, told him he was mistaken.

But he was more adamant than he was before." Jake didn't give me a chance to explain my side of things. Instead, he just continued to push forward. "I've told him that you would agree to be his date for the upcoming Alpha Ball. It's to be at the capital this year, so it will give you a chance to meet our Uncle Benedict, the Alpha King." Meeting an Alpha King was exciting, but to do so with Ian as my date? "Jake," I said. "I... don't know if this is the best idea." "You need to give him a better chance, Annette," he said. "You have not been showing him your true self. You've been standoffish.

I don't understand this behavior at all. This man is your perfect match.' 1/2 "I just don't feel that with him," I said. "You aren't trying hard enough," Jake replied. "If you put more effort in, you would see. Ian is a good man, with a good reputation. I'm sure if you showed him some affection, he would return that affection tenfold. This is how you learn to love." Learn to love...? Did it truly have to be so difficult? Why did I have to learn with Ian what came so naturally when I was with Damien? Damien. Perhaps he would be there. Jake did say this was an Alpha Ball.

But how could I do that to Ian, if I went as his date? It was one thing to run into Damien by accident, but to only agree to attend the Alpha Ball because Damien might be there, was too much. Yet... Perhaps I could trust in the Moon Goddess. If Damien wasn't there, I would trust in the Moon Goddess's wisdom and forget about him once and for all. Instead, I would fully focus on Ian.
