The Alpha’s Arranged Bride

Chapter 67



Lavender’s POV

Finn immediately stopped trying to suffocate me to death and threw the pillow to the side of the bed in anger. He stared at me with anger as I tried to steady my breathing. I reached out to touch my chest as the pain from trying to force air into my system while being suffocated slowly dissipated. I coughed slightly, which caused a little more pain for me. I shut my eyes, trying to get back to normal even though I was still in pain. Gamma Finn was nothing but a murderer. He wanted to kill me for questioning his loyalty. He wanted to kill me.

I did not ask to be here. I didn’t want to be here. The place where I would have been cared for and listened to while the antidote worked on my body was the Shadow Pack with Alpha Caramel. They would have taken care of me, not minding if I screamed in pain. The aura around the building was different. It screamed evil and sadness. It was nothing like Alpha Caramel’s mansion.

It was peaceful. Whenever it was quiet, I loved it. But the quietness in this place felt like there was something hidden inside. It was not hard to know what could be the problem. Evil people inhabited the mansion, their aura radiating in the entire space.

Alpha Toot’s aura was worse. I could never acknowledge him as my father. The aura that came from him was even stronger than the aura I felt from the house. It was deadly, and it was suffocating. He was not a good man. I robbed my chest, glaring at him as he approached me. He had almost the same smile that Finn had when he approached me; mocking. They knew how weak I was. They knew I could not fight for myself. They knew that even trying was like a suicide mission. I was helpless in this pack. Even without Finn telling me, I knew no one would help me here. I knew it was not loyalty that made them not want to help, but it was fear. Alpha Toot would certainly not spare them if they did.

Finn left the room, leaving me and my so-called father in the room. I wanted to kick him so hard. I wanted to scream at him to let me go. I wanted to push, and possibly bring him to his end, but trying would only be a laughing joke. I could sense how strong he was. It was similar to the aura Alpha Caramel carried. They were alphas. They were strong. A wolfless person like me would never be able to take Alpha Toot down. I would only kill myself if I did so. I didn’t want to give him that edge over my life. I wanted to be with Alpha Caramel. I wanted to be away from all of this. Why did he have to show up?

Why did he have to pop up out of the blue? I thought he rejected me. I thought he did not want to have anything to do with me. Was he not able to bear a child with his wife? Did he want me to take over? I wanted to laugh at my stupid thoughts. Alpha Toot was a man who would want to rule until the end of time. His gaze revealed that this was not an attempt at reconciliation. Kidnapping and tying me to the bed would only make it easier for me to never forgive him.

“Is that how you look at me after I had just saved you from being killed?” he asked, and I almost cursed at him.

“Was it not one of your people? Aren’t you the same person that took me from Alpha Caramel? I want to go back, and you are restricting me with chains. You would be dreaming if you think I will appreciate this act of yours,” I said.

Alpha Toot remained silent for a few minutes but kept staring at me. Then the side of his lips curved up. “You are meant to be here since I am your father,” he said as he took a seat beside the bed.

Those words felt like a taboo to me. All of his words were false. I was not meant to stay here, and he was not, and will never be my father, blood or not. “I never saw you as my father, and will never see you as my father,” I told him without menacing words.

Where was he many years ago when my mother needed him the most? Where was this same father when he wanted to take me out of my mother’s womb? He was not a father. He does not even deserve to say that word. It was a sacred word. The only person I would forever accept as my father was Axel. He was everything and more than a father should be, and not someone like Alpha Toot.

Alpha Toot’s gaze dropped as though he was hurt by what I said. His brows were curved up, his nose squeezed, and his smile faded. However, that sharp look in his eyes remained. It was not hard to see through his camouflage. He projected so many terrible things through his gaze. It was hard to hide it from anyone, not even from me, who only met him today.Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

Usually, when there is a reunion between a child and the parent, the child is filled with so much joy and excitement but instead, I am filled with pain, uncertainty, and fear. I never felt the need for a father beyond Axel, and even after staring at my biological father for so long, that feeling hasn’t changed. I hated looking at his face. I wanted to claw at it, ripping it off his head, but I was a human right now, and my wolf was yet to manifest.

“Stop pretending,” I told him when he kept on with the game for a little too long. It became irritating to look at.

He immediately dropped the act, and I confirmed my suspicion. He was truly pretending. If I did not know him better, I would have believed it. I would have believed maybe he was upset by my words, but this was Alpha Toot. A deceitful and manipulative man. I believed he had already perfected these skills, making it difficult for anyone unfamiliar with him to notice.

But I was not that person. I might be his blood, but I reject him. I never want to have anything to do with him. He is nothing but trouble and pain. I hated him for the commotion he was causing in my life. I was peaceful without him, and now that he was in my life, I had so many issues already.

“Daughter,” he had a dubious smile on his face as he rose to his feet and moved closer to me.

This action made my heart skip a beat. I blinked numerous times as he moved his face closer to mine and then brought his lips to my ear. I did not know what to expect. I wondered what he wanted to tell me. Instead of him saying something, he just paused there, then stood erect again. He stared at me for a few seconds before turning around and exiting the room. What was he up to now?
