Pursuing My Rejected Alpha

143 Dane Silverback’s Many Children

Lucien had nothing to hide.

“Your mom.”

Ronan’s face darkened. He was not in the mood to cuddle anymore. He wanted to pull away from Lucien, but he was still strapped to the bed so he had nowhere to escape to.

For once, Lucien did not plan to leave Ronan. The Alpha had no other option than to continue the conversation.

“Heh. Well, the belt might be stolen during the raid, indeed.”

Lucien watched Ronan’s expression with growing interest. “It seems that you know the responsible person behind the raid.”

Ronan scoffed. Of course he knew. He knew more than Lucien thought.

“I also know their father.”

“...”

.....

Lucien was stunned. Thinking that Ronan was trolling him, he drilled Ronan with a judgmental look. To Ronan’s great consternation, Lucien did not catch on at all until Ronan resentfully added, “I am talking about my father.”

Oh.

Dane Silverback.

Without realizing it, Lucien already stepped into a landmine that was the Silverback family’s room full of Dane Silverback’s dirty laundry.

This explained why Ronan hated talking about the raid. It not only happened shortly after his appointment, but was also caused by his father’s illegitimate children.

It kinda made sense. Maybe the perpetrator’s target was not the entire Infinite Eclipse Pack but only Ronan.

“Ronan, was there any dispute regarding your legitimate claim to the Alpha position?”

If there was a second candidate, they might as well check that person first.

“No. My father passed the Alpha position to me without considering anyone else.”

Lucien pursed his lips. Tough luck for the other illegitimate children.

Also tough luck for them because now they had to check every single one of those children.

“Okay, out with it. How many are there?”

He was of course referring to Dane Silverback’s illegitimate children. Ronan pulled a disgusted face.

“How am I supposed to know? Do you think I am the manager of my father’s whorehouse???”

“You don’t even have a number?” Lucien frowned at the man in his arms. He could hardly believe it. Ronan must know to a certain extent. He just didn’t want to list them out. “Fine, can you at least name the more prominent ones?”

Ronan rubbed at his eyes and muttered some curses under his breath. Why must they talk about Dane Silverback’s heinous extramarital children while they were cuddling on the bed? Ronan was about to lose it.

After taking a deep breath a few times, the Alpha was finally willing to talk.

“My father had two lovers before he married my mother. They were already pregnant when my parents got married.”

Ouch.

“They were low-borns, so they were quite happy to receive monthly allowances for them and their children. But then after I was born, they started to get greedy. They wanted to become a Luna and not just side lovers.”

Ronan heaved a deep sigh.

“According to my father, he fell into a trap and ended up having sex with the both of them. According to my mother, he willingly had sex with them. Anyway, both women got pregnant again. One had a miscarriage, the other gave birth to twins.”

“So at that point, my father had three illegitimate children by a woman, another illegitimate child by another woman, and one legitimate child by my mother.”

“The woman who ended up with three children demanded to be the Luna because she bore three of my father’s children. That was when my mother asked for a divorce and rejected my father to end the mating bond between them.”

“But your father never made the woman his new Luna,” Lucien said. If he did, Lucien would know. The whole werewolf community would know. The news would have blown up for weeks or months to come.

“No, and that’s why the women became angrier and angrier. They then expected my father to pick one of their eldest sons to be the next Alpha. Mind you, at that time my relationship with my father is as rotten as it can be. Those women must be quite confident.”

“Of course when that did not happen, they were as angry as a bunch of harpies.”

A cruel smirk was plastered on Ronan’s face when he recalled the huge ruckus that happened shortly before he took over the Alpha position.

The shameless women had barged into the Great Lake City and demanded Dane to hand over the Alpha position to one of their sons. He refused to, and they kicked up a huge fuss.

“The women had an agreement with each other. Whichever son became the Alpha, both women and the other children would be accepted into the pack. That was the main goal of the whole scheme. The second one was, of course, riches.”

“And that brings us to this raid that you want to know about. The women brought their adult children and came to the bank to access the Silverback family’s treasure vault. Don’t ask me how they got the key to the treasure vault. They took as much as they could and escaped to Europe.”

Against Lucien’s initial guess, the raid was done out of greed and not to destroy Ronan. They must be delighted to be able to use the belt to frame Ronan years later.

“Then what happened?”

“My father asked me to let it go.”

“Huh?”

Ronan rolled with his eyes.

“They only managed to steal some gold and some less valuable items anyway. There was only so much that four people could hoist out of the treasure vault. The high-end family heirlooms were locked in a second layer deposit box that only the Alphas could open.”

“So this belt...”

Ronan shrugged.

“I cannot tell you anything until I get to see the belt with my own eyes.”

Lucien had already predicted that.

“I know, so I got Kinnon to cooperate with us. Let’s take a look at the belt as soon as we can.”

Ronan heaved a sorrowful sigh in his heart.

It did not seem as if they could get Kinnon out of their life anytime soon.
