Substitute for The Alpha King
Chapter 85: I did it for you

Shawn looked at his mother who went to exit the play and looked at Hannah smiling sheepishly. She shook her head disapprovingly and he wondered why. "You shouldn't have talked to her in that manner"

"And she should not have talked to her in that manner? I did for you, for us"

"I am the one who said I am in love with you. She has every right to speak to you in whatever manner that she wants"

"But you should not have said all those things to her, she must be feeling bad now"

"Listen, I want the both of you to get close as well, but then she makes it impossible for the both of you to be close. if only she would accept you then my father would not have a problem at all, but you don't know him, he's always dancing to her tune and will do whatever she's asking to do, I did all those things looking out for you"

"That does not look as though you are looking up for me, but though, your mother is going to be more mad at me and even hurt me more than she has already done. she will think that I took her son away, and now I am taking his heart as well, your heart has always belonged to her, but now someone else was creeping inside, this was someone that she should did not have approved of"

"And so?"

"What do you mean? I want to get on your mother's good side as well, and all along I have been trying to wrap my head around. how I can get through to her? I know a conversation is not going to just cut out, in the end, she might think that I'm desperate and only want money, she might even offer me some money for me to leave you, and I don't want all that because I have my dignity and your money is not a problem at all. it might be able to cure my mother but I have never wanted your money, I have always provided for my mother I never even knew that you are rich until the other day when you told me your secret"

"And I'm not blaming you for anything so don't beat yourself up"

"I'm not saying that you're blaming me, all I'm saying is that you should let me try to find a way to figure out how to handle your mother. I really want her to accept me because if she can't accept me then the both of us will never be happy, if you decide that go back to the city of Garden will be happy, but in your heart you will always think about her, he will always want to go back to see her, I can follow you because I know she doesn't approve of me. what if he goes back one day and something happens? What if you go back and never return? what if you go back and find out she's sick because you left her and turned your back on her? no mother wants that at all, they have always wanted something else and that is for their son to get together with a Luna, one that they approve of"

"So in essence what are you saying?"

she ran her hands through her hair wondering if she had not been making sense of it all along. she will disapprove of her and make her feel even worse. he knows his mother very well and when it comes to him she has a soft spot, it will only be a matter of time before she finally accepts her especially if it's coming from him.

"I want you to leave it to me, I don't know how, but I believe that I will find a way around to make sure that your mother and I start talking and to make sure that she approves of me"

"You don't know my mother, she can be difficult to deal with and if it is coming from you she might think you're just trying to bother her up, but if it is coming from me I know that she will not mind at all because she knows that deep in her heart that I'm not that kind of man who wants to bother anyone up. I'm a man of my own words, so it is only a matter of time before she approves of you"

"With the way that you are going about it, I doubt she will even approve of me genuinely, I think she will only try to put up an act and then that ends it, but then, in her heart, she has not approved of me. I don't want that kind of approval at all"

"Is that what you think?"

"I don't need to think, I just need to know"

"I'm sorry I was being too hard on her but then my mother pisses me off when she refused to approve of you, and I hate that. I love you and want you to be my Luna, you are my mate so which other Luna will I choose other than you, I don't want you to think that I was mean towards her because i was not"

"I don't think that you were mean to her because you wanted to but because of what she wanted to say, nevertheless, I still want you to give me a chance for me to try and make it up with your mother because at the end of the day, she is your mother and I will not want the both of you to have altercations because of an illegitimate child like me"

"Don't you say that again! I already told you that your illegitimacy has nothing to do with anything between us, I love you and the fact that you are my mate is something that I have always wanted, right from the first day that I set eyes on you, I fell for you"
