Arranged To The Alpha -
Chapter 60
Blake:
I smiled as we entered the pack’s ground.
Never in my life did I think that I would be forced to stay away due to being as injured as I was.
The fact that they wouldn’t even let me go home to recover there was not something that I could easily forget or ignore, but I was also thankful for my mate who stayed by my side through it all.
I didn’t even know how I would be able to repay her for what she did to me. Her putting all our fights, arguments, and issues aside to simply stick to my side, ensuring to be the one who took care of me regardless of knowing that there were nurses that could have done the job instead.
My arm was looped around my mate’s, holding her close to me as we walked. Her father, who I knew was still confused about her leaving the way that she did, stood, watching us in silence, knowing not to interfere in such situations. Mostly because he was unsure of the reasons; however, I knew that if he knew, things wouldn’t go as smoothly as they were going now. The man would have had my head, and I can assume that was the reason why Natalia chose to stay quiet. That, and also the fact that the man was never in her life before for her to want him in it now.
We entered the house, and setting the things on the floor, Natalia nodded at the maids to take them. She turned to look at me and I smiled at her, cupping her cheeks as I kissed her forehead, thankful that she was back at home.
“The house finally got its flare back” I whispered to her, making her cheeks redden.
“How about I go and fix a warm bath for you? I can assume that you need to relax your sore muscles” she said and I nodded. It’s been a while since I have been able to take a proper shower or bath, and after staying at the hospital for three weeks, I needed to refresh back in my house.
Natalia walked up to our room just as the house’s door opened, revealing Jaiden who I knew was listening to us from behind the door. I crossed my arms over my chest, waiting to hear what he had to say. The door was usually unlocked for anyone who entered to go to their rooms, the guests, my parents, or elderly people who preferred that it be quiet, had their own houses within the Estate’s ground.
Jaiden himself had his own place to stay despite living close to us and being able to go and come back as he pleased. For some reason, he chose to stay, and according to Natalia, she guessed that he didn’t want her mum and siblings getting hurt considering the fact that he unfroze his dragon.
“Do I need to ask what I owe the honor?” I asked, raising an eyebrow. He was rarely one to come here, especially since he knew that he still had to play it safe with Natalia after everything that they’ve been through. Him training her did not mean at all that they made up, not completely anyway.
“I do not know what you did to my daughter…”
“And unless she asked you to come here for it, I do not think that she wants you knowing” I said, stopping him “now, I can assume that you THINK that she is allowing you in our lives, but I will have you know that I would be the one to put a stop to you if you think of crossing your lines with us…”
“I am her father…”
“You should have thought of that before sending her as a bride without bringing her here yourself” I said, stopping him “don’t think that I forgot about that. You lying to me, her, and the whole family is not something that I will let slide, but if I am quiet about it now, I do NOT expect you to take advantage of it”
“Who the f**k do you think you are to speak to me about my daughter like that?” He asked, making me raise an amused eyebrow.
“Where the f**k where you when your daughter needed you? Huh, Jaiden?” I asked, glaring at the man who frowned “you kicked her out of your house when she came to speak to you. Do you have any idea how hurt she was? Did you give two f***s? No, you did not; therefore, you do not come here to tell me that she is your daughter. My wife is a woman that I would cherish and protect until the end of time, and I do not need a man like you or a thousand other men, to tell me what to and what not to do when it concerns our relationship”
I went to turn around and leave only for him to wrap his hand around my wrist, stopping me, his eyes glaring daggers at me as he turned me to look at him “my daughter, is not a girl for you to mess with. And I swear, if you think that you can just get away with it…”
I bared my canines, and let out a low growl that had him freezing. His eyes met mine, and removing my wrist from his grip, I turned him around, wrapping his own arm around his neck, choking him, before pushing him away from me. He turned around to face me and I raised an eyebrow, waiting for what he had to do “first, you do not speak to me like that. Second, YOU are to teach yourself how to treat that woman you call your daughter. She is no longer a child for you to be calling her ‘girl’. She has her own home, pack, and husband. If you fail to respect that, it would be me who would teach you how to do so. Third, teach yourself how to have manners with HER as a human rather than a killing machine that you are trying to train, then the two of us will be talking about you being her father”
I looked over my shoulder as I heard Natalia walking down the stairs, frowning at the encounter before she shook her head at her father “I did not ask you to interfere in my and my husband’s relationship, if I may ask, why are you doing so?”
“You left the house, Natalia, you cannot just expect me to…”
“Me choosing to leave or stay should not concern you, especially since I did not approach YOUR house, nor did I ask for your help. I believe that you sent me as a bride to set me on my own, and though I do appreciate the help that you’re trying to put, and also the fact that you have sacrificed a lot for my sake to keep me safe, I do not think that it is correct for you to interfere, threaten my husband, or try to find out why I do anything in my life” Natalia said, looking her father in the eye. The man’s eyes widened in surprise, and taking a deep breath, Natalia shook her head at the man.
“You really believed that I forgot all the damage that was caused because of two weeks of training?” Natalia asked, shaking her head in question. Jaiden’s eyes widened in surprise as he tried to process what his daughter said. Natalia simply took a deep breath and nodded at me as she took my hand, intertwining our fingers “you of all people should not judge my husband when fighting me. I believe that I have seen your share of fights and arguments, you giving me up to an orphanage, then you claiming me back as your child to lock me up for days and nights. I do not believe that you are going to come now, after years and years of suffering, tears, and pain, to tell me that you are my father and that you want to protect me”
“Natalia…”
“I will be upstairs, in my bedroom, with my husband. We will proceed with our training tomorrow” Natalia said, stopping him “and please, I do hope that next time, you do not keep interfering in what does not concern you. Especially since I did not ask you to…”
