Rejected by the Beta, Claimed by the Alpha

Chapter 174

Chapter 174: Chapter 174

Kimberly’s fingers tightened around her phone as she ended the call with Alpha Darwin... Something about his voice unsettled her.

He was always composed, always in control, but today, she could hear the urgency, the weight in his words. He needed to see her immediately.

She wasted no time making her way to Theo’s study, her heart drumming in her chest.

As soon as she stepped in, Theo looked up from the stack of documents on his desk, his sharp eyes immediately catching the worry etched on her face.

"Kimberly, what’s going on?" he asked, placing the papers aside.

She took a deep breath before speaking. "Dad just called. He wants to see me right away. He sounded... different. Worried."

Theo’s jaw tightened slightly, but he nodded. "Then we won’t waste any time. I’ll drive you there myself."

Without another word, he grabbed his car keys, and they headed toward one of the vehicles parked outside. Just as they were getting in, Elijah approached quickly.

"Good afternoon, Alpha," Elijah greeted with a slight bow. "Would you like us to accompany you to your destination?"

Theo exchanged a glance with Kimberly before shaking his head. "No, Elijah. It’s a private meeting. We’ll be back soon."

Elijah hesitated but finally nodded, stepping back respectfully as Theo started the engine and drove off.

The ride was quiet, but Kimberly’s thoughts were anything but.

What could be so urgent that her father couldn’t wait? Did it have anything to do with the recent chaos?

Or worse, was he in danger? She clenched her fists, forcing herself to stay calm.

Within fifteen minutes, they arrived at Alpha Darwin’s pack house.

The moment the guards saw them, they opened the gates without question, as if they had been expecting them.

As soon as Kimberly stepped inside, alpha Darwin was already waiting in the main hall.

His face was unreadable, but his eyes held something she couldn’t quite place concern, guilt, and something deeper.

"Kimberly," he said in a low tone, motioning for her to sit. Theo took a seat beside her but remained silent, his presence solid and reassuring.

"I’m glad you came," Alpha Darwin continued, exhaling heavily.

"There is something I need to tell you... something I should have told you a long time ago."

Kimberly felt her stomach tighten. "What is it?"

He looked directly into her eyes.

"I love you so much and will do everything and anything to protect you, but the truth is, i am not your biological father."

The room fell into silence. Even Theo seemed to sit a little straighter.

Kimberly, however, remained calm. She had expected this conversation one day.
