Chapter 65

Avery

“Mother.” Dante’s face was impassive as he called out.

There was not an ounce of happiness at all in his tone.

Everybody in the room could sense his displeasure.

Still, Dante’s mother, Madam Romanos behaved as if she did not see it.

A waiter was behind her.

He was holding an extra chair in his hands. He set the chair before the table.

The two–person table became a three–person table in an instant.

“Speak of the devil and she shall appear.” I said sarcastically.

Dante did not look at me and he did not correct me. He just kept his frosty gaze on his mother.

“Dante, I have been looking everywhere for you. Why did you ignore my messages and calls? That is not how you should treat your mother!” Madam Romanos satbin her chair like a Queen.

Her demeanor was like she was in charge of everything here.

A cold smirk adorned my lips.

I watched her like she was a clown.

If she behave neutrally to me instead of antagonizing me from the start, I would have respected her.

No one is expected to like me at the beginning but she showed hate for me right

away.

She did not show propriety at all.

She went into conclusions with her bias of me.

I would not respect any person that doesn’t even respect me.

I would not want to waste my efforts on something that is not worthwhile.

Madam Romanos was not worthwhile for me.

Besides, she is against my union with her son and that makes her my opposition.

Dante was mine and anybody that wants me to be separated from him is my

enemy.

An awkward silence hung over the atmosphere of the private room.

I did not want to speak and Dante did not say anything either.

I could see that he was itching to chase her away but he was holding it in.

I knew he loved his mother.

It had to be the piece of love he had for her that acted as an intercession for Madam Romanos.

If it was the lycan king Dante Romanos that I heard about, he would not be so forgiving.

“Dante, I thought you were looking for a girl that you said is your mate before. Why are you going out with others now? You are not behaving properly!” Madam Romanos was trying to sound like an upright mother but her act did not fool any of us.
