Chapter 41 041
Damien's POV
What does he mean by that? He clearly hates me for the fact that I'm just who I am and I got involved with his daughter. I don't know how to sweet talk anyone even if he's my father-in-law. I've always learnt to get whatever I want through my hands no matter what it takes.
Amelia is my mate and it's only natural that I'm with her. Why does he despise me for awakening her wolf? How did I even do that? Besides, why is he so mad that his daughter's wolf was awakened? It's as if he was waiting for me to come here.
“What do you mean by that? Your daughter's wolf is here and you're not happy about it? Could it be that you had something to do with the disappearance of her wolf all this time?” I asked him.
He sneered, “I don't know what you're talking about and my family's affairs is none of your business.”
I moved closer to him with a smile on my face, I towered over him even though he was also very tall. I adjusted his clothes, seeing how he was burning with rage inside.
“Dear father-in-law, I think you know your daughter would be my Luna no matter what you want. Even you cannot stop that, I'm just reminding you.” I smirked.
“Are you trying to laugh at me or what? Do you think I can stop my daughter from seeing you?” he fumed.
“Do you think you can? You tried, didn't you? She still came to me in the end. You can never stop her from seeing me, we won't be separated even in death.”
Even if he got more angry, his daughter was still going to be mine. It's better to accept defeat early so you don't have to see the scenes you tried to avoid. He looked like he wanted to hit me and just as I anticipated, he tried to hit me.
“Ronald! Stand back! That's the Alpha of the Flaming Moon pack!” I heard their Alpha shout at him.
He moved back from me, looking at me with that look of hatred. I could only smile back at him because he still doesn't understand why I'm here. He's probably going to hate me more.
“I'm sorry Alpha, but he's just a villain who doesn't deserve to be respected. I don't care who he is, he's nothing to me!”
I chuckled, “That's funny.”
I turned to Alpha Orland, “You really don't welcome me here. I think I sent you an invitation before and you asked me to come instead. You made me wait outside and now your slaves are disrespecting me. Is this the attitude of the ones who needs my help?”
He came down himself with an awkward smile that was visible anyone could tell it was awkward.
“I apologize for the confusion and treatment you got here Alpha Damien. I promise you that's not what it's like. Please come inside, I'll make my subjects apologize to you.”
Look at him correcting me on what I said earlier. I'm deliberately provoking Amelia's father. I need him to be angry in order for this to work. He treasures his alpha and made his daughter hide, does he think his Alpha cares for anything more than being popular?
“I will not apologize Alpha. Did you just hear him call us slaves? He wants to marry my daughter with no respect for me? It will never happen! I don't know why you have a meeting with him. Don't fall into his trap, Alpha.”
Alpha Orland turned to him, “Ronald, why do I feel like you're the Alpha and not me? Why don't you just take my position instead of telling me what to do?”
He moved back again, “I apologize Alpha, I didn't mean to disrespect you. I was just trying to voice out my opinion.”
“There's no need. Stop causing trouble and welcome him. We have very important things to discuss.”
He would never have expected that his Alpha would have a collaboration with me. It's quite interesting that they were part of those who reached out to me. I saw that changed their minds but I decided to contact them. They must be in need of a lot of things to contact me who is the last option on earth for them.
I'm here to make a good deal and I know I can get Amelia to come back to me soon enough. She has her wolf now, there's nothing to worry about anymore. She will be my Luna alone and no one else can make me think otherwise.
"Alpha, please have a seat." Alpha Orland offered me.
I smirked while taking a seat. "From the way your gamma is looking at me, it feels like I might just remain standing."
"How is that possible? Don't blame him, he's just feeling a lot of emotions lately. Besides, we're going to be family soon. There's no need to be so distant."
Family? I can't believe this. Though I'm happy that I'll be getting her at the end, I won't let them use her as their bargaining chip or whatever they have in mind. I am the only one who can use her for things like that. How dare others try that with her? Her father wanted to say something but I beat him to it.
"I'm going to make one thing clear to you, you better not think of trying to bargain her with me. She's going to be my Luna anyway so put away that thought it you have it. I won't let her be used by anyone." I warned the Alpha.
"Do you understand what my Alpha is saying, Alpha Orland?" Lucas asked him.
"Hypocrite." Her father muttered under his breath, though I could see his shock and relief.
He looked at me, "I understand what you mean Alpha and I have no intentions of doing that to her."
Lies. He's having this meeting with me because of her, isn't it? Without her, does he think I would have looked at a small pack like this? They really overestimate themselves. Even if this pack is big to others, it's still small compared to mine.
"Her father doesn't seem to like my idea but it doesn't matter. As long as you can get her to be with me, you'll get the support you want from me." I told him.
I'm going to see how he's going to make that stubborn mutt listen to him. She's probably going to give them a hard time but it doesn't matter anyway. I only wanted her to see the kind of people she was scared of. Seeing that I came here, I'm very sure the news would be everywhere.
"Then, what exactly do you want me to do?" He asked me.
"I want you to—"
"Damien, you bastard! What the hell do you want?" She shouted, rushing inside with some guards who were trying to stop her.
I looked at her with a grin, "I told you you'd come to me yourself. How is it, darling?"
"Why don't you shut the fuck up and did?"
I knew it was going to be like this but still, it sounded exciting to me. I was able to see her like I wanted. But looking at her eyes, they seemed puffy like she has been crying. Did she cry because of me or did something else happen to her?
