Her Cold-Hearted Alpha novel Chapter 60

Kiara

Rayhan didn’t look phased , as we both turned to see Dad standing on the top step . His cold glare was fixed on Rayhan . I really was getting annoyed with him , especially since he himself was such a player back in the day .

I gave him a warning glare . ” Hey , Uncle El . ” Rayhan said , a hint of a smile teasing his lips . Dad simply gave him a calculating glare before looking at me . ‘ Dad , chill out , seriously . ‘ I said through the link . ‘ I wasn’t going to say anything . ‘ He growled back . ‘ But he better get the fuck out of my way or I’ll be disfiguring that pretty boy face of his . ” ‘ Ouch , don’t you think of him as a nephew ? ” I replied , finding it a little amusing , ‘ Not right now . ‘ He replied , walking down the steps .

Rayhan flashed him a dazzling smirk before he waved and winked at me , walking off . ” Seriously , Dad you’re suffocating . ” I said , as we both fell in step . ” You were upset that night . ” He said , now serious , his anger completely dissipated . ” That night ? ” I questioned , confused . ” The night we found out about your healing . ” He said softly . My smile vanished . Had they seen through me ? ” Oh … It was just … I thought I wasn’t … You know … Good enough .

” There , I said it . He stopped , cupping my face , concern in his eyes as he shook his head . ” No Angel . No matter what , you are worth more than any goddamn thing in this world . You’re my princess , and I know I can be fucking suffocating , but it’s only because I don’t want you hurt . ” He said , kissing my forehead .

I felt my emotions swirl in my chest as I wrapped my arms around his waist . ” I’m sorry for thinking like that … But I just … I don’t need my ankle to be healed for me to be strong . ” 11 His powerful arms wrapped around me and I inhaled his woody scent .

This was the one man who would always protect m e , my first love , my superhero . ” I just wish I had been able to protect you . ” He whispered . ” This isn’t your fault Dad , I’ve never blamed you . You did protect me , as you always do . You need to let go of your guilt , please . For me ? ” I said , looking up into those bright blue eyes that rivalled the sky in summer . ” I’ll try . ” He replied , giving me a small smile . I smiled back , tiptoeing and kissing his cheek . I love you , Dad . ” ” I love you too Angel , I’m sure whoever you end up mated with won’t really deserve you .

” He said ” All Dad’s say that . ” I replied , rolling my eyes . ” So , the guy you were messing around with was Rayhan huh ? ” He said , his eyes calculating . My heart skipped a beat , I didn’t want to put the p guy under fire … ” Dad it’s no big deal … Can you not butt into my sex life .

” I glared . He glared back . ” Couldn’t you be a little more … tame ? ” I smirked . ” I take after you . ” Flipping my hair , I waved and ran off . I did not want Dad prying . The way he had asked was as if he didn’t think it was Rayhan , and I never wanted him to learn the truth about Alejandro . The Mating Ball . It came twice a year -on The Blood Moon . The second one in the year was always hosted by the Lycan King .
