Chapter Twenty

“There had been a reason I wanted you in that dress, Riley; let’s say I wanted my father‘ infuriated‘.”

“That wouldn’t be a good thing since I was hoping to leave a good impression”

“You don’t understand; my father has this strange way of thinking, one I don’t share with him; he believes fear is another means of power.

“And you don’t think so?” I asked, knowing full well that Alpha Thane was feared amongst all regions. Though he had other enviable and equally intimidating achievements capable of giving him same influence, many still ‘feared‘ him.

“Is different when you enforce such methods on family too. That’s what he made my mother understand, he wanted her to fear him, tremble in his presence and now she had lost her own voice, he keeps her wrapped up like some mummy, I don’t like that, so letting you wear something so provocative was challenging him in some way”

“I thought… I.. I’m sorry”

“Yet, Riley, I am glad you fought me for what you wanted.”

“I thought that was against, the rules.”

“It is”

Just then, there was a knock on the door before Axel walked in.

“How did it go?” he asked Thane.

“Just as I expected, the old man is getting crazier these days,” Thane replied, and I was. surprised by his words. He was talking about his father, the Alpha King, like he was nothing but a pest. Now I understood what Freya had meant when she said Thane was the only one worthy‘ of being seen as a threat to the Alpha King. Thane simply had no regard for the king, and after seeing what he did to his own mate and the way he stared at me, I couldn’t help the hatred and dislike building in me for the man.

“Did you manage to convince him, Luna?” Axel asked me.

“She did good,” Thane answered in my place. Of course, I couldn’t know if he was saying the truth or just saying that because I was here. I doubt he cared about my feelings, so maybe I did. do well..

Axel walked closer.

“Everything had been set… just as you requested” he said

“I want you to give her a tour around this place, take her somewhere- anywhere” Thane said, as if I wasn’t standing right there before them both.
