The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 545

Chapter 545: A FAILED FATHER

XADEN’S POV

Xaden very slowly walked out of the tent.

The very moment he rose his head up, he saw that everyone who had come along with him on the journey standing in front of the tent.

He froze and came to an abrupt stop once he saw them standing.

They were all looking at him.

He knew that they had come because they had heard what had happened.

He just stood there unsure of what to do.

Then as if on cue, when they saw that no one was hurt or anything bad was happening they began to disperse.

Anna pushed through the crowd and came to see him.

"Are you okay?" Anna asked as she held his arm.

"I’m fine." He said.

She curved her almond shaped eyes to look at the tent.

"How dare she talk to you like that?" She demanded. "I told you she was a little slut. I’ll deal with her."

And then it hit him.

They had all heard their arguments.

No wonder they had come straight to the door to over hear it.

"You heard everything inside?" He asked.

"Not everything." She shrugged. "Just that I hated the fact that she made you beg!"

Xaden winced.

They had heard that part?

"Who the devil does she think she is? Making my own brother beg! While she even yelled back at you!" Anna demanded flaring her nostrils in fury. "I’ll teach that little whore a lesson."

And then she started to march towards the inside of the tent and then Xaden very quickly grabbed her arm and pulled her away from the room.

"What do you think you’re about to do?" He asked.

"Teach her a lesson!" Anna hissed.

"No you’re not going to do that." He said holding her hostage.

"Why?" Anna demanded frustrated.

He began to lead her away from the tent while she wrestled in disapproval.

"She keeps on getting away with these things." She argued. "She needs to be disciplined!"

And in anger Xaden whirled his sister to face him.

He was getting tired of Anna’s bickering.

"To be disciplined?" He demanded in irritation. "Anna she lost her child!"

"She was rude to you!" She countered back and that took Xaden aback.

Her words shocked him.

She was equating the fact that Jasmine had lost her baby to validate to her snapping back at him.

And it baffled him.

Even though he didn’t have a heart.

He was appalled by her statement.

And then she continued. "It doesn’t change the fact that she spoke to you disrespectfully. You have no idea how long she has been getting away with so much!"

"She lost my child!" Xaden barked at her shutting her up.

His wolf was breathing in anger. "Doesn’t that mean anything to you? Doesn’t that affect you in any way? She lost my own pup!"

Anna seemed very well taken aback.

And then she began to gather her words together.

"I mean yes.... Uhmm.... Err... of course. I’m sorry that you lost your baby." Anna apologized. "It hurts me that I lost my little nephew or niece too. And it’s all her fault. If she hadn’t put herself in such danger, none of this would have happened."

And Xaden was terrified of her.

She hadn’t said she was sorry that Jasmine had lost her baby.

Rather she was only apologetic because *he* had said that he had lost his child.

She didn’t even care.

She had zero sympathy for Jasmine and that baffled him to the core.

He then recollected jasmine’s words.

When she had mentioned that Anna had told lies.

He held Anna’s arm.

"Anna is it true that you have been lying about who you are?" He asked his eyes closely watching at her.

Anna dropped her lips in shock. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

He looked into her eyes searching for something.

The only thing he could read was surprise.

"Lying about myself?" She asked confused.

"Anna. You told me that you were raised to suffer in the pack." He said.

"Yes?" She nodded.

"But Jasmine tells me that never happened." He said. "That she was the one who was raised as a slave. You were raised as a princess and you never had to suffer. Anna is this true?"

She looked at him, her eyes widened.

"Xaden you’re hurting me." She cried.

And then he looked at her arm where he was holding unto and realized he was actually hurting her.

He withdrew his fingers from the tight grip and he saw that his wolf claws had dug deep inside her arms.
