Her Brutal Alpha novel Chapter 15

I felt as if I was on pause, my body felt frozen in place. I didn't even turn to look at him after he basically threatened my father's safety which definitely didn't settle well with me.

I slowly turned the cold tap off and removed my fingers from our entwined hands only for Blaine to tug my hand back to his in a tight hold, making it impossible to pull my hands from his.

We both stayed there neither one of us talking; I just stood there not looking at him fumingly.

How dare he disrespect my family like that, my father is no angel but they're both acting completely irrational and immature.

I needed to address my father and make sure that he knows that I'm old enough to make my own decisions without him dictating everything I do which Blaine also needed to understand.

I looked over at him, his facial expression showed nothing but I could see the solemn look in his eyes showing me how serious his comment was. I knew deep down that he meant every word he said, I didn't doubt that he wouldn't following through with his threat.

"You and my father will agree to disagree but do not threaten my family because that is disrespectful to me. All he wants to do is protect me-"

"Protect you from what exactly, me?" He said harshly, interrupting my sentence. I chose to ignore his comment and continued with mine.

I rolled my eyes. "Even if he's trying to protect me from my mate he's only doing what you would do if it was your pup. It's a natural instinct for a wolf to protect its young and you know this."

His eyes flickered with a flash of emotions when I mention having his own pup; I knew family meant a lot to him especially since his was taken from his when he was only 15.

I reached up and touched my cheek where my scar lies with my hand, but was soon replaced by Blaine's touch. I sighed and slowly closed my eyes while Blaine softly caressed my scar by running his thumb gently across it.

"My scar was given to me by Nate when he got angry that my mom had mated with my father instead of him, he was envious and bitter and took his frustration out on me; a four year old girl. Ever since my father has been protective of me, fearful that he will lose me again. He's lost me twice and now he feels like it's happening again, so he doesn't want me to slip from his grasp. He just wants me to stay safe and be free from harm even if he's protecting me from my own mate." I slowly wrapped my arms around Blaine's waist and he wrapped his arms over my shoulders pulling me closer.

Resting my chin on his chest, I looked up at him before giving him a pleading look.

"I need you to get on with my father, he has good intentions but his mind is clouded by unwanted memories. I don't agree with what he's said to you, like I don't agree with what you said to him. Can you please at least just try to get along for my sake? How can I possibly be with you if yo-"

A low growl rumbled from Blaine's throat. "I will never hurt you, especially you. My wolf lost control earlier and I apologise. But your father started it, he should never have crossed my territory without permission and he knows it. That's a penalty punishable by death in my pack and I won't apologize for fighting him, at least he's alive."
