Incubus' Blood Harem-Chapter 128 Bring Your Mate Here
Coulter turned around immediately and leaped towards his daughter, which made Lydia ponder what suddenly happened to him. He was the same man who was earlier having objection with her decision of marking a mate. The alpha could not bring himself to act elated upon hearing the words, he attempted hard not to show that on his face.
"What did you say? Who is your mate?"
He asked her once again suspecting that he might have heard it wrongly. After all, who in their senses would mark an incapable laughingstock of the city as her mate? But Lydia did! And the very thought was making Coulter rethink why would his daughter out of all the girl's mark him?
"K- Kayden."
Lydia was unable to contemplate why her father was suddenly acting weird. There was a hint of amusement over his face which seemed half evil and half genuine. He literally worshipped his job and loved it, but he could not deny that his daughter was happy for the first time.
She never had any boyfriend and it made him saddened that why was his daughter unable to love anyone. But now Coulter was aware that perhaps she had someone else in her heart. And now he could possibly accept the fact that her emotions and attraction towards Kayden was genuine.
The vampiress stared at him in a confused expression because she could not comprehend what changed now. Whereas the alpha grabbed her by shoulders and looked straight into her eyes. How could he let go of the perfect moment to make it up to his daughter!?
"Which Kayden? Which boy are you talking about? Where does he live?"
Coulter tried his best to sound stern because he could not simply show his lenient or happy emotions to his daughter. It was already suspicious how he was acting and it made her feel uncomfortable about the change.
"Why are you suddenly interested in him?"
Lydia turned her focus on Coulter's imminent concentration and it was highly unusual for him to change his mind about something. Thus it made her curious and cautious about his mental health and the so-called dutiful lecture, which he just gave her indicating that he would never change his mind. 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺
"Tell me, tell me what the fuck is going on in your mind?"
Horror creased on her face as the woman inquired about Coulter's compliance. Lydia pushed him away and shouted at her father assuming that the man had something big going on in his mind.
"Answer me, Lydia. Who is the guy and where does he live?"
Coulter was persistent in finding out about the accuracy of his guess. Because after all the information over Kayden was becoming interesting, questionable and controversial now. He needed to be prepared before agreeing to permit his arrival.
Lydia was hesitant about telling anything regarding Kayden but she was also aware that either way her dad will find out. However the easiest way was to divert attention so she could buy him some time and think about Kayden's safety.
Lydia thought for a moment before replying to him, which stunned Coulter. He was not a man of fear but the words said by his own daughter pierced his heart. The alpha could not help but to stare at his daughter with a flicker of guilt.
It was not surprising that she thought about him that way, because after all his duty came first than blood relations. The vampiress looked at him with a murderous expression which was obvious. Lydia voiced out her assumption and the fears to him while demanding an explanation.
"Why do you want to know all of this about him? Are you…are you going to kill him?"
There was pain in her eyes regarding the underlying intentions of her father. Because after all, he was not the kind of man known to change his mind or show leniency.
"No, honey. Why would I do that? I'm asking out of sole curiosity."
Coulter joined his eyebrows and looked at her with a soft expression. It was the first time he felt bad for her and reached for her cheek.
The alpha was regretting all those years he had missed from her life. She was approached by him lovingly as Coulter caressed her right cheek. Lydia was taken aback by his changing emotions, because Coulter seemed to melt down.
"Why would I kill him? He is your mate, and your happiness. I….I'm sorry for overreacting and not listening to you calmly."
Coulter waited for her to take the bait and believe him. After all, he could not immediately accept her demand.
Such action would make him appear suspicious thus he felt the need to act a little. The alpha no doubt was the kind of person who would think only about himself. However Lydia perhaps could not spot that he was pretending, the way he was acting so efficiently.
"It's…..it's okay dad."
Lydia immediately hugged him and sniffied, she could not believe what just happened. It was hard for him to keep on pretending like that. But to ensure that Kayden would come to meet them was his priority.
"But does that mean do you…you agree?"
She looked up at him with a surprised and disbelieving expression. Lydia's eyes glowed crimson with happiness as she eagerly waited for his reply.
"Yes, I agree. After all, your happiness is more important to me. I will figure out how to deal with the higher ups."
Coulter patted her head and smiled at his daughter, he promised to assure her about the future consequences.
"As long as you are happy and he loves you. I'm willing to take the risk then. Tell him to move here within a week."
Lydia excitedly chirped and jumped in the spot, happiness was visible on her face which relieved Coulter.
His plan was now fulfilled and it was a golden opportunity to spy on Kayden since now he would be staying within his den!
