Kidnapped and Rejected The Return of Alpha’s Luna (Janet and Daran)

Chapter 58

“Are you doing alright at the Harper front?”

Janet asked Angelina as they went into her office.

“Good. It is a lot of work to try to keep her out of troubles. But there is nothing I can’t handle.”

Angelina closed the door and walked to the fridge. “Something to drink? Water? Iced tea?”

“Water will be fine. Thank you.”

Janet sat down on the couch and said, “We can always throw Harper into jail and let her rot in a dark cell. You don’t have to be trapped by her.”

Angelina walked over with two glasses of water and set one of them in front of Janet. Taking her seat next to Janet, Angelina said with a smile, “No, I don’t feel trapped. Instead, I feel my passion for life being rekindled. Do you know how many times I have imagined Harper crawling under my feet and begging for my forgiveness? It was the only thing that guided me through the dark times. I am practically living my

dream right now.”

“But Harper doesn’t seem to feel sorry about what her did at all,” Janet said.

“Oh, we will get there. Slowly.”

Angelina shrugged.

“Many nurses and maids here were once victims of Harper. They would love to help me get Harper back on the right track. So anyway, what do you need me for today?”

Janet set the glass back on the table and leaned forward to Angelina, “I am here to ask you about a member of the Riverside Pack…Maxie.

The moment Janet said that name, she noticed a strange look flickering across Angelina’s eyes.

“Why? Have you heard about her?” Janet pursued eagerly.

“Well, yeah…But it’s a long time ago.” Angelina frowned, “Did something happen to her?”

“I think so, yeah. But neither her nor her maids are willing to tell me what happened. I suspect that it has something to do with the Gamma of Riverside Pack, Baron.”

Janet told Angelina everything that happened today.

The furrow between Angelina’s brows kept getting deeper.

“…That bastard,” Angelina gritted at the end of Janet’s story.

“As you can see, Angelina, I am here to help,” Janet said. “And not just to help Maxie, but also to help the entire Riverside Pack army. We will go to war with the rogues very soon. We can’t let a dirtbag like Baron lead the troops. We have to take him down!”

A resentful look appeared on Angelina’s face when she heard Janet said “the rogues.”

“Well, no one hates the rogues more than I do.”

Angelina gave Janet a brief smile.

“And to answer your earlier question… Yeah, I do know what happened to Maxie.” Janet sat up straighter, listening intently.

“Maxie started off as a soldier in Baron’s father’s troops. Baron’s father appreciated her talent and soon pointed her as the captain. She was a great warrior. Many girls would sneak out during lunch break and went to the training field to see her train. And she was nice to us too, unlike most ladies and nobles. So everyone loves her downstairs.”

So Maxie was Baron’s father’s right-hand warrior.

It explained why Baron trusted her with all his dirty secrets.

“And then…Baron’s father died. Baron took over his troops…And everything changed.”

Angelina tightened her fists. Her body was shaking slightly.

“One night, me and the other maids were dusting Maxie’s room and bumped into her coming back from training. Her hair was messy, and she got bloody lips and bruised forehead…And most importantly, her clothes were all ripped apart.”

Janet widened her eyes.

A wild anger took hold of her.

Baron…That son of a bitch! How dare him!!

“Nobody tried to expose what Baron did?” Janet snapped.

“Who dares? We are all lowly servants. We would be skinned alive if we were caught gossiping about our masters. And Maxie…you can imagine the awkward situation she was in. Baron’s father was basically a mentor to her. How can she foul mouth her mentor’s son? Plus, Baron is well respected in the army. No one will believe what This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

she said.”

Poor Maxie.

Nobody would believe her. So she could only suck it up herself.

For years, she cleaned Baron’s messes quietly and endured his disgusting harassment. If Janet didn’t find this out, how long would this keep going? “This must stop. NOW.”

Janet gritted with rage burning inside of her.

“Baron…that son of a bitch deserves to die a thousand times.”

Angelina nodded, “I was glad that you came to me today, Janet. If you didn’t step out, I doubt anyone would ever do.”

She paused and let out a sarcastic snort, “And it is funny. Harper framed an innocent person for raping, but the true victim of a se xual assault was forced to stay in silent. This world is so fu cking twisted.”

“And they are all going to hell. One after another.”

Janet said coldly and stood up from her seat.

“Thank you today, Angelina. I think I have works to do now.”

Janet turned and walked towards the door.

But Angelina called behind her back again.

Her eyes were gleaming with a sign of fear when she looked at Janet.

“Be careful of the rogues, Janet.”

She said.

“They are more dangerous than you think…especially their king.”

“You have met with the rogue king?” Janet asked in surprise.

The head of the rogues was a very mysterious figure.

Although everybody called that person the “Rogue King,” nobody knew if that was a man or woman, let alone what that person looked like.

“Yeah…Once. At a party.”

Angelina gulped nervously as though she was going through some very terrible memories.

much.”

“I know that those people are barbaric. But it exceeds your imagination, way

She said with a quivering voice full of aghast.

“And that is why you need the best warriors in this war. Or you will lose. And don’t want to end up in the rogues’ hands after losing.”

you

Angelina’s warning carried significant meaning.

As much as Janet loved to stay and ask more questions about the rogues, she still had Baron to take care of.

So after setting another time to discuss this with Angelina, Janet left the clinic and went back to the training field.

It was approaching dusk, and soldiers were leaving the training field at the end of a day.

Janet pushed her away through the crowd, trying to find Balvina.

Yet she spotted Maxie in the distance first.

Maxie wore a baseball hat that was pulled down low to cover most of her face.

She was dragging a cart of training facilities and heading toward the warehouse.

She seemed depressed and defeated.

“Maxie!” Janet cried running towards her.

Maxie froze and turned around. Her eyes widened with shock as Janet came close. Then she took a sudden step back and snapped:

“What are you still doing here? I said. We have nothing to talk about!”

“Maxie-”

“It is still about that account book, isn’t it?” Maxie hissed, keeping her voice low. “I won’t give it to you. And if you keep pestering me, I will tell Baron about this. I swear!”

“No! It is not about the account book. It is about you!”

Janet grabbed Maxie’s arm. Maxie quivered significantly. Janet must have touched the bruises on her forearm.

Looking directly into Maxie’s eyes, Janet said, “I know what happened to you, Maxie. That is not right. It has to stop. NOW!”

“What? How…Who told you!” Maxie gasped in panic.

“It doesn’t matter. But you can’t let that bastard keep bullying you. Baron’s father wouldn’t want to see this either. Plus, if you keep your mouth shut, who knows how many innocent girls will keep becoming Baron’s victims?”

That was when Maxie started to hesitate.

She stared back at Janet with a clear struggling look on her face and shook her head, “No, no way…Baron is too powerful…”

“Even more powerful than the Alpha?” Janet said urgently, “Alpha Daran is with us this time. You have our support! This is your chance! Take it, Maxie!”

“I-I can’t! You don’t understand. Baron has gotten my-”

“What are we talking about here?” a voice appeared behind Maxie’s back, interrupting her words.

Baron strolled to their side and wrapped an arm around Maxie’s shoulder casually, with Owen grinning like a fool behind his back.

Glancing at Janet’s furious face, Baron chuckled and wrapped a lock of Maxie’s hair around his finger playfully.

“Is someone bothering my Maxie?” he asked in a cold, drawling voice.
