Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother 50. But That's Stacie, April.
April's POVEvening came, and I was painting quietly in my room. I heard a knock at my door, and I jerked in fright. The door opened slowly, and Lucy walked in, all dressed like she was going out somewhere."You are still painting? Aren't you tired?""I am," I said wearily. "This picture just isn't coming together."“Then, in that case, I suggest that you drop the brush. Alexa and I are going out to explore the city. We've been cooped up in here since we got here, and I think we should explore. So, are you in? I looked at them and smiled. Lucy was right; maybe some fresh air would do me good, and maybe I could get inspiration to paint from the city."Okay. I'm in." "Great," Lucy clapped happily. "Alexa and I are downstairs. Meet us in the living room."She dashed out of my room, and I immediately began to rummage through my bag for something nice to wear.I finally settled on a pair of jeans and a sweater to curb the slightly chilly evening.I met Alexa and Lucy downstairs, and we
Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother 51. Soon, All Of This Will Be Mine.
Conrad’s POVI had my back turned to a large group of people that were standing in my room. “Any news so far? What is the word on the street? Are we making any progress?”The room was silent, and my personal aide was standing behind me. I looked out of the window, and from his reflection in the thick glass, I could tell he was shaking.“Are you deaf? Didn't you hear what I said?My aide was sweating, and he slowly opened the document file after wiping his sweaty palms.“Speak!”“No…nothing yet, your highness. We haven’t heard any confirmation from the king, your father. He hasn’t hinted at anything, and I assure you, we are keeping strict tabs on him, morning and evening.”I heard what my aide said, and I turned to him angrily. I addressed him as if he had the answers to all the questions that I was asking.“So we are not making progress?" I asked, my brows creasing tightly. I had spent the last year using most of my resources to build my influence and reputation.Jonas hurriedly sh
Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother 52. Hallucinations?
April's POV Lucy and I tried to chase down the mysterious and familiar figure, but she disappeared into the crowd like a ghost. We were gasping and trying to catch our breath when we bumped into a wandering Alexa.She looked terribly unhappy to see us, and her eyes darted from me to Lucy and back to me."Argghh! What are you brats doing here? Asked Alexa, visibly annoyed and irritated. "I don't know what your problem is,” Lucy pushed back. "I didn't know we would bump into your walrus-looking face. It's not like you own the place, you know.”“Lucy. It's alright,” I said softly to her. I didn't want a fight breaking out.“Well, she started it. She called us brats,” Lucy said in defence. I saw Alexa's face turning bright red, and she was on the verge of attacking Lucy when somebody softly tapped me on the shoulder.I turned around and saw the butler who had brought us. With his appearance, Lucy and Alexis's impending battle rapidly ended before it could even begin."Good evening, lad
Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother 53. Presenting The Gifts
April's POV I woke up on the floor, and Azura gently pawed my face. My eyes fluttered open and met her deep blue slits."What are you doing? Is it morning already?""Meow."I rubbed my eyes and sat up. My back ached, and I looked up at my painting. It wasn't done yet. I remembered putting my brush down for a quick power nap. I must have dozed off.I stood up and saw that the sun was up. I grabbed my brush and continued to paint. I had to get it done today. I resumed my artistic strokes, and I felt the creativity begin to flow anew.I had gotten several knocks at my door, but I ignored all of them. I was determined to get it done, and nothing would distract me...Knock! Knock!I groaned and finally decided to go to the door.I opened it and saw that it was a maid."Good morning, Miss April. I apologise for bothering you, but you are needed at the breakfast table."I nodded and headed back inside my room. Azura was on the bed meowing."I have to go for breakfast. I'll get you something
Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother 54. Be My Date.
April’s POVLucy slept in my room. It wasn’t the worst experience, though she did snore quite a lot. I smiled and tuned her out.There was a knock at the door, and I jumped out of bed, rubbing my eyes sleepily. As I opened the door, I found a maid standing there with a bundle in her arms and a smile on her face.“Good morning, Miss April. The Prince asked me to give you these.”She placed the strange bundle in my arms, and I looked at it quite puzzled.“What is this?” I asked innocently.“They are clothes and shoes for the banquet. The prince wants you and your friends to look your absolute best. I haven’t seen Miss Lucy this morning and left hers in her room. Please tell her to check them out if you see her. I need to know if they fit or if we need to get new ones for the three of you. We will also arrange for a stylist to finish your hair and makeup later in the evening.”I nodded, smiled, and returned to meet Lucy, who was still snoozing soundly. I shook her violently to wake her u
Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother 55. You Look Stunning, April
April’s POVI stared at him, stunned, trying to gather my thoughts together. Finally, I could speak, and I tried to sound as sincere and polite as possible.“I really do not think that that is necessary. You are the royal prince, and I am simply in your debt. All eyes will be on you, and I wouldn’t want to get in your way, and I certainly do not want all that attention. I want to present the gift to the Alpha, enjoy the banquet like everyone else, and not have paparazzi in my face.”I saw this look in his eyes but could not figure it out.“Someone like you doesn’t deserve to be in the shadows, April. You are already enough limelight, and you brighten places that you go and people you touch.”I felt my cheeks flood with colour as he talked about me. He was really sweet with words, but I still had to decline his offer. I really didn’t want to be seen with him. Deep down, it just didn’t seem right. Couldn’t he understand?“I still have to refuse. I am sorry.”“April, you really don’t hav
Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother 56. All Hail, His Majesty!
April's POVI got to Lucy's side, and she chuckled at me. I rolled my eyes while she snickered playfully."What are you doing here? You should be with your boo," she asked with a laugh."Can you just stop? You know it's not like that. Stop trying to play matchmaker."Lucy giggled, but I ignored her and looked around the banquet hall. It was beautifully decorated, and I was nearly blown away in amazement.The lights shone like stars, and rare flowers that were in bouquets were well placed around the room, filling the space with their intricate scent.Everyone was beautifully dressed, and the conversations were light and friendly, with whispers about who would be picked by the Alpha to be the crowned prince."Your boyfriend seems to be tonight’s star. You really are a lucky girl."I shook my head and resigned to the fact that Lucy wouldn't stop anytime soon.I saw Conrad from across the room, shaking hands with different people and conversing lightly.I had been so nervous the entire ri
Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother 57. The Crown Is Mine.
Conrad's POVI watched as my father walked in with that gold digger, Vivian. I scoffed as soon as I saw her. My father didn't know her as well as I did. More than anyone, I knew that Vivian didn't care about my father. Not after she had tried to climb into my bed more than once with all her flirtatious gazes.She was simply one of the bevvy of ladies my father kept at his disposal for pleasure. But since he chose to bring her along to his birthday banquet, it was safe to say that he had made her his favourite. My father didn't just bring any woman along with him to his occasions. As his first son, I knew that better than anyone.With her by his side, he was beaming from all sides as she grasped his arm. I could only imagine the type of sorcery that that woman had used to be able to bewitch my father to bring her along. I inverted my gaze away from them and turned to where Lucy and April stood. Their gaze was on the Alpha and Vivian, but they looked stunned, their eyes wide with shock
