Denied by Destiny Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond novel Chapter 311

“Yes you do…you asked pack members why my daughter wasn’t at the pack run.” He quirks an eyebrow at me, a small hint of a smirk forming in the corner of his mouth.

“I just thought it odd, that as a member of the alpha family…” I start but he holds a hand out to me, cutting me off mid sentence. Mid explanation.

“Is there something going on with you two?”

Shit…

“How do you mean?”

“I think you know what I mean.” His head lowers and his eyes almost pierce into my soul. Shit, he had seen more than he was letting on.

“I felt guilty…” I start to explain but he knows instantly what I am about to say is full of bullshit.

“No..”

“No?”

“No…don’t lie to me Knox. It’s vital that you don’t like to me.”

What does he want me to say, that I’ve entered some kind of friends with benefits agreement with his own daughter, I don’t think so.

“I returned her soaked in her own blood…I just wanted to make sure she was safe, that she was healed at least.” I hold his glare, not preparing to back down.

“You feel protective of her, you feel possessive?”

His words blindside me, I didn’t expect him to ask me that.

“Possessive?”

“You don’t want other males touching her, being anywhere near her.”

“Yes, Alpha I know what possessive means. I don’t know, I haven’t really given it any thought.” Fuck I have, it’s all I have been thinking about at the borders. How the Doctor had his hands firmly around her waist, even now, knowing he would have placed he medicine on her wounds.

“She’s special to me.” Hector pulls me from the thoughts that were making me angry.

“All daughters are to their fathers.”

“No…you’d be surprised. Trust me, I have first hand experience of how twisted some fathers can be.” He sighs out, placing the glass on the desk before standing up and looking out of the window behind his desk.
