"Alpha... Alpha"

I groaned as I faintly heard someone's voice with the knocks against the door. I sighed and ignored it completely as I pulled the delicate body that I was hugging into my embrace even more. She felt so good to hug while sleeping. I buried my face against her neck and remained as I slowly fell asleep.

"Alpha, are you awake? Alpha Lee Dong-Wook is here" But my sleep faded away as my eyes snapped open when I heard Martha's voice. Grandpa is here? What time is it and why did he even come at this hour? Early in the morning? I groaned as I released Tzuyu's body to sit up on the bed. I'm still sleepy. I barely slept last night. I rubbed my forehead for a moment and glanced at Tzuyu who was in deep sleep.

I pulled the quilt covering her exposed breast which is filled with hickeys I made. I feel proud of myself. I shouldn't wake her up. She should get some sleep since she couldn't sleep until six in the morning. I slowly got down from the bed and put on my pants. I wanted to take a shower but before that, I needed to go and face Grandpa since he was waiting for me.

As I opened the door of the room, I saw Martha. She sighed seeing me. Next, I saw Grandpa who was behind her. His anger-filled face made my heart tighten. I didn't miss the way his eyes traveled all over my body. I know there are hickeys and scratch marks that Tzuyu made on me.

"Grandpa, good morning. What brings you here early in the morning?" I forced a smile at him and came out of the room shutting the door behind me without making a sound since Tzuyu was sleeping.

"Put on a shirt and come!" He almost growled before walking away. I clenched my jaws as my fists also curled upwards to tight balls. Is... is he going to cause trouble? I don't understand... but I can understand one thing and that is he's going to blame me again for marrying Tzuyu. I know it very well. Instead of walking back into the room, I went to a guest room and grabbed a quick shower. Then changed into new clothes and went downstairs to Grandpa.

"You must have been having a good time last night" he mocked me. His mockery stunned me. He had never said things like this before. I lowered my head and remained silent as I preferred silence whenever he was complaining about keeping Tzuyu with me. He hates her because he thinks that she will do something which will bring death to me. But I don't believe it. And even if something like that happens, I don't blame her because no one can stop the death. If I have to die, I will always die no matter what or no matter who was with me in my life.

"What is her mark?" Suddenly he asked. He hasn't seen her mark yet since he never came here after the argument we had for the first time. He would just send his beta to bring Ayaan to him and then spend time with Ayaan but never spoke to me or came to this house. He's such a tough man.

"A rose," I answered, making his eyebrows twitch.

He stared at me for a long time and then took a step closer to me.l don't know what he's going to tell me but... but I know that it is something unpredictable.

"You know what? Your mother also had a rose! Women who get roses as a pattern are curses to men in our family!" I guessed correctly, he's here to break my heart and put my mental peace on the ground so he can step on it and crush it. I clenched my jaws looking into his eyes. I don't know what to tell him. My mom also had the same pattern. I became speechless meeting his sudden outburst.

"You gave all your mother's jewelry to her, not even guessing why everything was designed as a rose? Your dad was as crazy as you are! He designed everything for her because he thought having a rose on the mark was such a miracle! But what was the miracle? The miracle is that his dumb wife brought death to him!"

"Grandpa, what is your intention of saying all these to me now?"

I didn't let my heart take anything that Grandpa said seriously. He's angry... that's why he's saying all these things. And if Tzuyu is so similar to my mom, I'm glad about it. Because at least I can feel and see my mom in that way. I don't blame her for being similar to my mom and I won't blame her even if she brought death to my doorstep. I'd welcome it gladly. This conversation I'm having with my grandpa is useless and ridiculous. If he thinks that he can use all these unnecessary reasons to make me remove Tzuyu from my life, he's wrong because I have enough strong reasons to keep her with me.
