A Supportive Mate
Celine’s POV :
A loud growl scared him, yet he didn’t let go of my arms. I felt Alpha Tyrion grabbing him harshly and throwing his weak body away from me.
“Don’t touch her, Gabriel! ” Alpha Tyrion shouted in his Alpha voice and my father bowed his head at him.
He smiled,” She’s my daughter, Alpha. ”
Alpha Tyrion scoffed,” Daughter? You should be ashamed of using that word for her because real fathers don’t sell their daughters. ”
His eyes widened almost about to pop out of their sockets. He looked between me and Alpha, trying to read the room. I could see the anger rising in his eyes when he realised that I had betrayed him by telling Alpha Tyrion the truth.
“There’s a big misunderstanding, Alpha Tyrion. You were the one who touched her and took her innocence. ”
I had never seen Alpha so angry before, other than the day when we were mated forcibly. My father was lifted high in the air and thrown against a wall.
” You said whatever you could that time when she was your daughter, but now, when I have marked her, you have no right to even step a foot inside my pack.”
“Please let me go, Alpha. I had only wanted to meet my daughter. She’s my only family left in the world. ” And with this, he began to cry.
My heart ached for him. As much as I hated him, it was the truth that he had always been there in my childhood when I needed a parent. Somehow, he was nice and kind to me when I was young.
But was he a good father figure if he protected my innocence only to use it as bait to trap an Alpha?
‘Cut the non-existent umbilical cord, Celine. He means nothing to us. ‘ Belinay muttered angrily.
She had been growing restless as soon as his scene had caught our attention. The violence he inflicted on me was life-threatening and one day he would have ended my life for sure.
“You need to leave. ” I spoke as his face dropped,” You are no one to me. ”
He clenched his jaw,” I raised you! You ungrateful little brat. When your goddam parents left you in the woods, I took you in and pleaded with the Alpha to give you the pack’s name. ”
Alpha Tyrion growled,” Do you have a death wish? ”
Gabriel, my dad, or just a stranger, didn’t have any other option other than to give me a harsh look before leaving my sight.
“Meet you in the challenge. ” He said as he got out of the chamber.
I finally exhaled a sigh of relief when his bully’s scent vanished, and I could feel myself taking normal breaths again. His wolf had always been mean to me since the time I was a kid.
“Take rest. I need to work on the pack matters. ” Alpha Tyrion said.
As much as I wanted to stop him and get him to talk to me more about the challenge, I didn’t show it to him. I had to keep my thoughts in control around him, so it wouldn’t get uncomfortable between us.
His eyes fell on my slight cleavage, and he looked away as his cheeks flushed with embarrassment. I wanted his eyes on me and his strong hands working on my body.
“Have a good day, Alpha. ” I replied by keeping my thoughts and voice controlled.
I noticed his body going rigid, and he didn’t move an inch away from the exit door. Something was going in his head and I didn’t know what he might be thinking.
“Will you be okay here? ” He asked, and before I could answer he added,” I mean it might get lonely here, and you need to concentrate on the challenge too. Are you sure it won’t disturb you? ”
I frowned when he still waited for me. I was a little confused by his asking me about the loneliness when he had thrown me into the ruins of his pack.
“No, it will be fine. Please don’t stress about me. ” I insisted.
His frown deepened and he took a step closer to me. I felt my breath getting caught in my throat when he touched my face with his warm fingers.
“Take care and if you want any help just let me know.” He pulled out a phone from his pocket and gave it to me. I was visibly confused but didn’t ask him anything,” You can contact me anytime whenever you need me.”
I clutched it in my hands, not knowing what to feel about his good attitude towards me after a long time. However, I was delighted by the fact that he cared about my well-being and my needs. Maybe he was just hurt by the sudden mate bond, and it made him angry all the time.
“I will let you know,” I answered with a small smile.
He nodded,” I will ask the elders about your sudden change of eye color because it happened for the first time, and you are as clueless as me. Can I trust you with your words though? ”
“Yes, Alpha. I promise I have no idea about whatever happened during the practice.” I shook my head.
He looked satisfied with my answer and, after staring at me for another few seconds with the same intensity in his eyes, he finally turned around to leave.
“Shall I go?” He asked again.
“Yes, Alpha…” I bit my lip nervously when he ran his hand on his silky blonde head. I watched him walking with utter confidence and his head high in the air with the authority he executed in his demeanor. My stomach fluttered as he turned to look at me.
“Celine,” he said loudly,” Are you sure you can live alone here?”
This time I burst out laughing loudly, and he was taken aback by my reaction. He was behaving so strangely and his confusion about leaving me here alone was so funny to me.
‘He is the same man who threw us here though. But I like how he can’t resist us anymore. The bond is finally working on his head.’ Belinay scoffed in my mind.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
And suddenly I was thrown back to reality. He might be getting a little infatuated with me, but it was all because of the sex and not because he felt something about me.
“I know how to live alone, Alpha. I have known it since I was a child. So, don’t worry about me and go back to your pack.” I didn’t wait for his response this time and I shut the door on his face.
