Kidnapped and Rejected – The Return of Alpha’s Luna by Moon Claw

Chapter 61

Daran’s soldiers poured into the lumber camp and controlled all guards. All hard labors in the camp

were shivering in fear. Balvina quickly came to calm these people down.

Maxie still couldn’t believe what she was saying, “But how did you know where my families are…‘

Daran walked over and answered on Janet’s behalf, “Janet believed that Baron must have something

on you to have you work for him. She found that your family hadn’t returned to your old house for

almost 3 years. And I have my men dug out the old surveillance footage from 3 years ago and found

out where Baron took them.”

He paused and then said with a deep voice, “Sorry Maxie, I should have found out that you were living

under his control earlier.”

Maxie covered her mouth and shook her head in tears. She and her families fell into each other’s arms,

sobbing on each other’s shoulders, venting out everything they had suffered for the last 3 years.

Janet looked at them and felt her heart swell. She knew what it felt like to reunite with families. She got

the same feeling when Casper brought her home almost an year ago.

At the meantime, Daran’s soldiers brought the guard of this lumber camp over. The

guard was no longer harsh and violent like he was earlier. Instead, he dropped on his knees

unvolunteetarily in front of Daran in fear and trembled like a sheep.

“Alpha Daran,” the guard quivered. “Please forgive us…We know nothing…We were simply told to

keep an eye on these workers!”

“By whom?” Daran asked with a freezing voice.

The guard hesitated. The soldier standing behind his back grabbed his left hand and pinned it on the

ground forcefully. Picking up an axe, the solider looked at Daran and waited for his order.

“Chop his hand off,” Daran sneered icily. “Maybe that will get him to talk.”

“Yes Alpha!”

The soldier raised the axe high in the air. The lumber camp’s guard let out a horrific screaming, “NO–

Wait! My boss is Gamma Baron! Please…let me go!”

The soldier dropped the axe back down and grabbed his collar bringing him to Daran. Daran looked

down at his fearful and sweaty face and asked, “Who are these workers? And what is this lumber camp

for?”

The guard almost wet his pants earlier. He was ready to spill everything out now.

“T–These workers are all Gamma Baron’s hostage. If someone defied him at work, Gamma Baron

would abduct that person’s family and brought people here. We got the family of his father’s former Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

captain who refused to take his order now, the accountant who wouldn’t cook the book for him, a

journalist who threatened to expose him and a few girls who didn’t want to be his mistress…”

The longer that list got, the darker the look on Janet’s face was.

She thought Baron was just a gutless puss. But as it turned out, he was so much more than that.

She regretted not getting to the bottom of this when Baron first set her up in the crazy bear incident.

Daran seemed furious as well. He glared at the guard and snapped, “So what do you have these

people do all day? Chopping woods?”

“Well…yeah. This lumber camp is actually very lucrative, made Gamma Baron lot of money. And if

somebody refused to collaborate, we’d take them into the forest and kill them there…‘

Maxie’s little sister gasped a small cry and buried her face into Maxie’s arms. Maxie patted her

shoulder and casted a resentful look at the guard.

Then she bent down to pick up the whip on the ground and turned to ask Daran, “Alpha, if I may?”

Daran gave her an affirmative nod.

Maxie strode forward, raising the whip up in the air, and laid a harsh lash across the guard’s face, “-

This one if for my father!”

The guard screamed covering his face, rolling around in pain. But Maxie continued anyway, lashing

that whip mercilessly.

“And my mother! My brother! My sister…And all the innocent people in this lumber camp!”

Workers gathered up around them and they watched Maxie beat that guard up. When she was through

with it, the guard was on the ground, half–dead. A round of enthusiastic applause broke out from the

crowd.

Maxie dropped the whip and turned back to Janet and Daran. Grateful tears were shinning in her eyes.

“Thank you…Alpha Daran, for stepping up for me and my family.” She choked, “And Gamma Janet,

thank you for getting to the bottom of this. I treated you terribly earlier today and I feel awful…”

“You were threatened by Baron. We all get it,” Janet comforted her. “We’ll let the soldiers clean up this

mess. But at the meantime, is there a place we can talk?” Maxie’s father quickly wiped the tears away

from his eyes and nodded, “Of course. Please follow us, Alpha and Gamma Janet.”

They led Daran and Janet into a small cabin and closed the door.

“Your family is safe now, Maxie.” Daran said, “And I believe that you have come to realize what an evil

person Baron is. All Riverside soldiers need to know that too. They can’t go to the battlefield with that

bastard. So to accomplish that, we will have to-”

get that account book. Yeah, I get it,” Maxie said with a low voice.

She fumbled in her collar and pulled out a necklace. There was a tiny golden locket on the necklace.

“Here.” she handed the locket to Daran, “There was an address and a number engraved inside of the

locket. The address is the safe where I kept Baron’s account book in. And the number is the

password.”

Daran took the locket and gripped it firmly.

“Thank you for your trust,” he said solemnly to Maxie.

“No need.” Maxie took a deep breath and replied to Daran with a smile, “I know that you are a

wonderful Alpha. And I am glad to continue serving in your troops.”

With this lumber camp being taken down, all workers/prisoners needed to be sent back home. Daran

spent a few hours talking to these people, making arrangement for them, and documenting their

testimonies.

When all those works were done, Daran turned around and found that Janet still hadn’t left.

She was leaning against the wall, smiling to him.

A gentle smile touched Daran’s lips as well as he walked towards her, “What happened? I thought you

left already.”

“I wanted to see if you need any help,” Janet looked up into his gorgeous eyes. “You are quite a badass

today, Alpha Daran.”

Daran chuckled lowly and backed against the same wall next to Janet, “Not as badass as the Gamma

who slaughtered a bunch of crazy bears.”

The night breeze brushed their cheeks. The silver moonlight was soft and beautiful. After a long night

of chaos, they both felt relaxed at this moment.

“You know-”

Janet broke the silence all of a sudden. There was a hint of nostalgic in her voice.

Daran averted his head to look at her. His voice became hoarse, “Then what’s the reason?”

have that kind of power in you, Daran.”

“…But I let you down. Didn’t I?” he asked.

She stood up straight and wanted to leave. But a large hand caught her wrist and spined her around.

The next second she fell back into his arm.

“I know you don’t need my protection anymore but…”

TH

His s e xy and husky voice was by her ears. And his muscular arms tightly wrapped around her slim

waist.

“…But I’m willing to take a bullet for you anytime, Janet,” He said.

His firm chest was on an inch away from her nose. The familiar smell of his scent filled her nostrils.

Janet felt her heart skipped a leap at this moment.
