Mine – The Alpha's Possession by Kylie

CHAPTER 33

Every event in this castle was a different dress code. So, the dress that I was wearing during the day was not appropriate to wear at dinner. So, I needed to change into something a little more formal and then I left my bedroom and I started walking to the dining hall on the first floor.

I walked past a room that had a door that was slightly cracked open and I heard two men in their arguing about something.

“Listen. We’ve got the princess here, what else do you want?” One of them asked.

“It’s not just enough to have the princess here. If we want to remain in the good graces of the King, then you need to do everything you can to make sure that she falls in love with you.” The older man says.

“I know. That’s what you’ve been telling me for the last year. Once we get the princess back then I have to try as hard as anything to marry her. But this isn’t a fight between me and the princess. This is just about you wanting to maintain your status in the castle.” The younger man said.

“What’s wrong with that. I need to keep my status here. And you are my only hope. If the King finds out the truth about our family, then we are done. You are my only hone son.” The older man says. 2

“I don’t like bringing the princess into this. This is not her fault. This has nothing to do with her.’ The younger man says.

“Well, you make sure that it does have something to do with her. Otherwise, I will be banished and I don’t know what the King will do to you.” The older man says.

“He won’t do anything to me because I didn’t do anything wrong. I didn’t go behind his back, did I? And I didn’t know that you were going to do it either. He will know that.” The younger man says.

“Just finish getting ready. We’re already late for dinner.” The older man says. So, I quickly moved away from the door and kept walking down the hallway until I got to the dining room.

Vincent was already there, standing by the large windows looking out at the village. But when he turned around to look at me he smiled at me warmly.

“Another beautiful gown for a beautiful girl.” He says walking over to me and holding my hands.

“Thank you, Vincent. I hope you don’t mind me calling you that. I’m not used to the whole father thing yet.” I say.

“It’s perfectly okay. You go at your own pace. I know that all of this is completely new to you.” He says.

“Having a father that actually cares about me is something completely new to me.” I say.

“Well, you never have to see Thomas again if you don’t want to.” He says. 1
