Page 117 of Her Cold-Hearted Alpha: Part 1

I blushed, jumping up from the seat and moving as far away from my Dad as I could. Alejandro just sat there, smirking so irritatingly.

"Dad! I'm not a child and I can fuck who I want." I snapped back.

Alejandro cocked his brow. Did the A-hole Alpha love drama? Urgh, I hate him!

Dads’ eyes simply darkened dangerously. "I'm disappointed in you, Kiara."

Alejandro’s eyes flashed and I felt the room suddenly become heavy with his aura. "Don’t you think that’s a bit of a fucking hypocritical move considering you were a fucking man-whore back in your day who fucked almost every she-wolf if your pack, right? On top of that, you were fucking your own step-sister before you knew she was your mate." He said coldly.

This time my eyes flew open in surprise. I knew Dad had been a player... But wow… And on top of that… Was he defending me?

"You have no proof of that." Dad growled.

"Hmm really? Remember that stop at Raf’s pack? I'm sure you two were fucking in the shower, if my memory serves…My hearing is pretty damn good." Alejandro smirked, I knew he had won when Dad gave him a murderous glare.

Damn Lycan hearing…

"All I'm saying is, she’s YOUR daughter." He taunted Dad.

I couldn't resist the smile that crossed my face. If you ever want to win, make sure you have Alejandro on your side. Our eyes met and the corner of his lips twitched. My heart skipped a beat but Dad's growl brought me back to the present.

I saw him look between us sharply and for a moment I wondered if he was suspicious of us… After what happened in Callum’s office… Where do we go from here?

"Well, I'm here until the mating ball." Dad said icily. "I’ll take over watching my daughter from this day on."

"Sure, just how you were back at home." Alejandro mocked.

I glared at him, I did not need him telling Dad about Damon! Dad didn’t say anything, instead, he got up and stormed out of the office. I followed him, giving Alejandro one last glance before I left. I wanted to ask him, what were we?

The following day I woke up late, I was shocked to see the sun was high in the sky. Why hadn't anyone woken me up? I needed to go to the hospital. I got ready quickly before I walked back into the bedroom. Dad was also staying here at the mansion, well I didn't really expect anything else considering…

I ran down the stairs, pinning my hair up as I did, stumbling slightly as pain shot up my ankle. I had been so busy yesterday I hadn't even noticed it. I froze in my tracks when I saw Jasmin coming out of the lounge in an oversize cotton shirt. Clearly, looking like she had just fallen out of bed.

Our eyes met and I wondered why she was here? Did she move to the mansion due to shortage of space? But none of the apartment blocks were destroyed…

"Something on my face, pup?" She said, giving me a horribly hidden look of disdain. Didn’t I make amends? What was her issue now?

"Just that look of scorn that makes you seriously ugly." I snapped back.

She looked surprised for a second. "Oh?" She didn’t say more, and I saw her sizing me up. "Somethings changed."

I didn’t bother replying, stepping out into the fresh air. I had no idea where Alejandro and I stood anyway. I stopped seeing Raven and Raihana sitting on the porch looking at something on a tablet.

"What are you guys doing and why didn’t you wake me?" I said, hugging them both from behind.

I was so glad Raven was ok, I couldn't imagine life without my boo. She smirked up at me as if nothing had happened, I remember our emotional hug from last night when she had finally woken up.

"Because you needed rest girl." She said as Raihana held the tablet up.

"We’re looking at dresses, I want to pick one for my Uncle’s engagement." She said.

My heart pounded. Was it really still on? I'm sure Alejandro had changed his mind, right? That moment...

But the uncertainty had settled into the pit of my stomach and the feeling of bad news only grew.

"Kia…" Raven said.
