Going Against the Alpha

Chapter 8 -Is That a Problem

Kamila's POV

 Now he is here to see the s**t storm I caused by not telling my parents about our date. I can see Claudette is sitting at the kitchen table with my parents standing over her. She is giving them a go-to-hell look. I take a few steps forward into the kitchen. What is going on? 

My parents spin around so fast, which causes me to take a step back. My father immediately starts to lay into me. Where the hell have you been? What the hell do you think you are wearing? You know you are not allowed to wear things like that. You look like a slut. 

As I hear my father's word, my breath gets caught in my throat. I’m trying to hold back the tears that are threatening to fall. Why is he saying these things in front of Denver? 

A loud roar tore through the entire house. No one said a word. They turn to look at where the sound had come from. Standing behind me was a now pissed off Alpha. Denver came from behind me looking like he was about to murder my father. 

Alpha Denver’s POV

Hearing her father yell at her like that, causes my blood to boil. Once I hear him call her a slut. I could not hold back anymore. I let out a loud roar that tore through the house. Everyone in the room looked shocked. It was like they had not even seen me standing right behind Kamila the entire time.

 I walk around Kamila while thinking of ways to kill her father. I yell out. No one talks to my mate like that. Her mother still looked like she was in complete shock. Her hand flies to her chest as she says, “MATE.” I feel Kamila’s hand on my arm as if she is reassuring herself. At the same time, she is calming my wolf and me down. Yes, Kamila is my mate. I took her on a date tonight. Is that a problem? 

Both her parents look at each other. Her father’s whole attitude does a complete 180. He is no longer yelling. Instead, he sounds friendly. It is like he just received the best news ever. “This changes everything. We were not aware that Kamila had found her mate.

Since Kamila can not feel the mate bond, Alpha Denver, are you saying that you feel the mate bond? It is taking all of my control not to rip them apart right here in their own home. How dare they question me. If these were not her parents, they would be dead by now. I take a deep breath before answering. 

Yes! I would not say we were mates if it were not true. In the corner of my eye, I can see a smile on Kamila’s face. I pull her closer to me and wrap her in my arms. I do not care that her parents are there. She is mine. I’m proud she is mine.

Claudette breaks the silence with a smart-ass remark to her father. See, I told you. You had nothing to worry about. Even if he wasn’t her mate, it would have been one less alpha that she would have had to hang out with this week. Her words cause my anger to rise. 

I see the shocked look on her mother's face. Her father rolls his eyes and holds the bridge of his nose like he has a migraine coming on. Before I have a chance to respond, Kamila asks her father, “do I still have to spend time with the other alphas and their betas?” My jaw clenched at her words. I could feel the anger start to radiate off me. No, you will not be going out with anyone other than me. You are mine I roar causing the house to shake.

 “Alpha Denver, please calm down my wife, and I had set this up before, knowing that you were her mate. Since she is mated with an alpha, Kamila will not be required to participate next week. She will be allowed to come and go with you as she pleases.” 

It is settled then. Kamila is mine! She will stay here until the end of the week. She will then move to my pack with me. Her father nods his head in approval.

Alpha John (father) POV

It is getting late, and I still have some last-minute matters to attend to in my office. If anyone needs me, I will be there. I make my up to the office on the third floor of our house. Once inside, my thoughts are racing. This changes everything. I wanted my daughters to be married to an Alpha. However, I really wanted it to be one with a bigger pack though. 

Our pack is not as strong as it uses to be, so combining packs would be the perfect way to make it bigger. We would also be able to combine resources. My pack may not be what it use to be as in strength and numbers. However, we are one of the richer packs. Everyone thinks we are rich because of all the business we own, which we do own a wide variety. We own half the town 10 miles down the road. 

However, that is not where most of our money comes from. My most lucrative business is also causing our pack to dwindle in numbers. Ring Ring Ring… I’m brought out of my thoughts by my phone.

Hello…

We need to move our plan up…

Can we meet tomorrow morning….

Fine .. 5 pm…

The usual meeting spot...

Third Person POV

You are in luck. He moved up his plan. I’m meeting him tomorrow at 5 pm. A low chilling voice comes from the corner. “Good. Make sure to let me know as soon as it is done.” A tall man with reddish-brown hair kicks himself off the corner of the wall he was leaning on. 

His cold blue eyes are boring a hole into my soul. It sends a shiver down my spine. I have dealt with many dangerous people before, but there is something about this man. My instincts are screaming at me; warning me do not trust him! As he goes to leave, I put my hand up to block his path. His lips curve into a snarl.

 Rolling my eyes, I say, “You will need to let your boss know that we will need to meet soon. There is no more using you as a go-between. I will not complete your portion of the plan if we do not meet. Do you understand? He gives me a creepy smile that makes me regret my words. However, I’m not backing down. “I’ll let my Alpha know that the plan is in motion, and you have requested a meeting.”
