The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 1024

Chapter 1024: SIDE STORY (KIAN): SHE IS NOT HER

Kian didn’t know what got into him because he was not usually like this. This bothered his mind more and more, to the point, Kenna would notice this.

Kenna was the woman that Kian chose to be his mate seven years ago when Nala made it very clear to him that there was no chance for the two of them. She chose to be with that merchant instead of him.

Kian was well aware that he couldn’t provide her with something that Lou could give to her without a second thought, the luxury and everything that could make your life easier, but Kian could give Nala something that she always wanted.

A family on her own.

He knew this was her deepest desire and she couldn’t get it from Lou, since that merchant was very fickle. He would often go around the continent and left her for months. He didn’t care for her, yet Nala was still waiting for his returned.

Kian couldn’t understand why would she do that?

However, he didn’t have a say in her final decision. Therefore, he tried to move on from her and be with Kenna.

She was a nice woman, the kindest soul that Kian had ever met, but sadly she was not her.

He had tried so hard, but still, it was not enough when all he was thinking about was her. Kian knew how wrong it was, but he couldn’t help himself to forget about her.

"What’s wrong?" Kenna approached him with concern look in her eyes. "You have been spacing out. Is there something that weighed your mind?"

See? She was always this sweet and kind, but somehow, Kian couldn’t bring himself to love her enough to forget about Nala.

"I am fine." Kian kissed his pregnant mate, while his son was giggling with his younger brother. They were five and four years old, while Kenna was pregnant with their third child.

"No. You are not," Kenna said, she could tell.

"I said I am fine," Kian said sternly. He didn’t want to be asked. It irritated him. _{freёwebnovel.com}

Kenna was taken aback, she didn’t expect for Kian to raise his voice on her and the look on her expression must have told him his wrong doing, because he immediately apologized.

"I am sorry, I didn’t mean to snap on you, but you are right, there is something in my mind lately," Kian said. He kissed Kenna’s cheeks and excused himself.

"Daddy, let’s play!" His eldest son came to him and want to play with him, but he was not in the mood.

"I am sorry, let’s play later, okay? Daddy has a head ache." Kian then turned to look at Kenna. "I am going to lay down for a while."

Tomorrow was the coronation for the new king. Zander would sit on the throne while king Cane would step down from his role.

Therefore, there were a lot of things that should be done and Kenna thought that was what weighed down Kian’s mind.

"Let’s play with me, mommy will play with you, okay? Daddy needs to rest," Kenna said, consoling her children.

Seeing this, Kian felt so terrible. He was upset with himself because he couldn’t love her as much as she deserved.

Kenna was a perfect mate, a gentle mother to their children and now she was seven months pregnant with their third child. This should be a happy moment for Kian. He should be happy to have this family on his own, but still, there was this void in his heart that he couldn’t explain. The void, where he kept longing for someone else.

It was so wrong for him to do this and the king had made it very clear that having more than one woman was not acceptable any longer in this continent.

And the reason why Kian had been behaving like this was because he just learned that Nala was pregnant and Lou was going to leave to Andelus continent, the merchant was going with the king and queen, leaving his pregnant woman alone.

Kian was sure that the bastard didn’t want his own child, since Nala mentioned about this before.

Therefore, with this new information, Kian’s mind had been plagued by ’what if’.

What if he came to her right now and was willing to raise the baby with her. He knew that this sound crazy, but based on his experience, being pregnant alone was not an option that a woman wanted. It would be too difficult for her.

He knew he was insane to leave his own family to be with a woman, who was pregnant with another man’s child and there was no guarantee that Nala would be on board with this idea, but he couldn’t shake his mind from the possibility.
