"Threw a huge party hoping I would find my
mate somewhere in the crowd and stay," I close
the door behind us.
"Lily... Never in my wildest dreams-"
"Oh, spare me," I cut him off. "Don't insult my
intelligence by pretending you aren't happy with
the turn of events."
He is silent at first, brooding. Then he speaks.
"You're right about me wishing to have you
here. But I am not lying when I say I did not
expect this. Of all the people..." he sits in his
chair, worried, "why did it have to be him?"
I shoot him with a stare. "Why do you say that?
What's wrong with him?" If my father is
displeased about this situation, of all the
people, then there's definitely something wrong
with it. I fear finding out the reason.
He lifts a shoulder. "It's just that...he's a Carter.
Carter's Alpha. You know how they are..."
I exhale confidently. "If you think he can scare
me or play me... you're very much wrong."
