The Beauty Of Love {Editing}

Chapter 21

"And you are?" The woman asked.

"Um." I looked at Alex. Yip started growling. I grabbed his collar.

Alex looked worried and scared.

"Mom. She's...... my girlfriend." She hanged her head.

The guy, I'm guessing her dad, stood up and walked up to me.

I looked into his dark brown eyes with no emotion. Showing I wasn't scared.

He smiled and pulled me into his arms causing me to let go of Yip. I tensed in his strong arms. I didn't know what was happening so I just stood there, even though I was a couple inches off the ground.

He let go and grabbed my shoulders, "And your name is?"

"Sapphire." I said hesitantly.

"Well, welcome to the family." He smiled brighter.

I look at him confused.

"John! How can you allow this!" Alex's mum stood up and pushed me away from the nice man.

Yip started growling so I grabbed his collar and pulled him to our bedroom. I closed the door and went back to the main room.

"Oh c'mon! She seems nice. Why not give her a chance?" The man said softly.

"Because they are both girls!" She yelled. Ears and tail came out from her as well as Alex's dad.

They are both meifwas.

"Mom!"

"No! I will not tolerate this in my house!" She got close to Alex.

I stepped in front of Alex protectively.

"Don't stand in my way, you filthy mutt!" She reached out a clawed hand to grab me but Alex's dad grabbed her arm.

"Margret. I think you should leave." He said calmly.

"Me!?! Why me?!" She got in his face.

"Because you are being a child and you will not use the word 'mutt' under this roof or in my presence." He said firmly.

The woman, Margret, yanked her hand away with a huff. "You will regret this." She spat and walked out the front door.

"Are you two okay?" He asked with worry.

Alex ran up to her dad and attacked him into a hug, "Yeah. Thanks dad."

"Anything for my little kitty." He kissed the top of her head between her ears.

"Dad!" She pulled from the hug.

He let out a hearty laugh, "Well who's hungry? Because I'm starving."

My stomach growled as he said that. My face heated up a bit.

"Guess the wolf is hungry as well."

"Saph is cooking. You can't cook dad."

"I was gonna order pizza." He pouted.

"Sounds good to me. I need a shower." I said walking to the bathroom.

"Awe c'mon. I love your cooking and dad needs to try it." She said clinging to my arm.

"Then you have to wait."

"One extra large pepperoni pizza please." I heard John say.

"Dad!"

I let out a laugh, "Maybe for breakfast." I kissed her forehead.
