the bookworm's alpha

chapter eight

                   "So what's your father like?" I asked.

"Strict and impatient," Luciano answered.

"And?" I pushed.

"And what?" he said, his eyebrows scrunching up.

"There is no detail. What does he look like? How is he strict? How is he impatient?" I pouted.

"He's strict with rules. He's impatient with almost everything." Luciano replied, kissing my pout. "He has brown hair and green eyes. And is about an inch taller than me."

"What kind of rules?" I inquired.

"The pack rules." He smirked. "Speaking of, he's still bothering Lilly and I because he wants to meet with you."

"Well, why do we keep putting it off?" I mumbled.

"Do you want to meet him?" Luciano wondered, bringing me into his lap.

"Do you want me to meet him?" I remarked.

The bell rang, interrupting our conversation.

"We'll finish talking about this later, okay?" Luciano offered, helping me stand up.

"Okay." I nodded in reply.

                      "So do you really want to meet him?" Luciano asked.

"Well," I murmured. "You said that he keeps on bothering you and your sister."

"Yes, but we can live with that until you're ready to meet him." He sighed.

"Are you sure it's me that's not ready?" I hummed, raising an eyebrow at him.

"I'm just worried that he won't accept you," Luciano whispered, looking at the ground.

"And why wouldn't he?" I remarked.

"I-I don't know." He stuttered.

"Then what's there to be afraid of?" I breathed out softly, wrapping my arms around his waist.

"I don't know," Luciano muttered, hugging me back and resting his chin on my head.

"Exactly." I grinned.

"Are you free after school?" he wondered.

"So far, yes," I smirked.

"Well, you're not anymore," Luciano said.

"Alright." I giggled.

                   "Good afternoon, father." Luciano greeted, hiding me behind him.

"Who did you just hid behind you, Luciano?" a male voice asked.

His father, perhaps?

"Father, this is my mate, Rei," Luciano said, bringing me back to his side.

"Good afternoon, sir." I nodded to Luciano's father. "It's nice to meet you."

"Ah, and I finally get to meet the next female alpha." He hummed. "It's a pleasure to finally meet you as well."

His hair is a light, almost caramel, brown and he has the same eyes as Luciano. He's wearing a tuxedo and looks like he's about to go somewhere fancy.

"Are you off to another meeting, father?" Luciano wondered.

"Yes, I am." His father answered. "I'm sorry I couldn't stay to get to know you better, Rei. I hope we will have more time to do so some time in the near future."

"It's alright," I said, biting my lip.

"Goodbye." Luciano's father ended the conversation before walking to a car.

"Now what?" I asked Luciano, looking up at him.

"Well, I have an idea," Luciano smirked.
