Chapter 1124: Aurora (3)
Aurora heard the sound of whispering and hissing loud enough around her and this made her wake up from her unconsciousness.
The voice was so low and sounded full of emotion, as if there were several people arguing, but at the same time they wanted the quarrel not to disturb those around them, or no one to hear the quarrel.
Whatever it was, it felt unreasonable with a very thick aura of hostility.
Even as Aurora began to regain her full consciousness, tension could be felt in the air.
"Mom?" That was the first words she spoke the moment she opened her eyes. For some reason Aurora always knew that her mother would always be near her, especially in moments like this.
"Yes, honey, mother is here," Raine said, who then knelt beside Aurora's bed and held her daughter's hand.
Not far from where she lay, Aurora could hear her father growl viciously, a growl that meant warning and was met with the same sharp growl.
But, the second sound made Aurora's heart beat very fast and all the memories came back. The moments where she lost consciousness and how she got a shock that she had never thought of before.
Aurora knew that sooner or later she would meet her mate, but not so soon, because only two days ago she turned seventeen, the time when lycans would meet their mate, but Aurora always thought that she would not find him so quickly.
Even Kayden still hadn't found his.
Therefore it never occurred to Aurora that a night with a rainstorm like this where there were several rogues crossing their pack's territory without permission and having to fight with her brother and father, was the night where she would find her mate.
Is he a rogue? Father won't like that fact...
"You can't see her!" Torak growled in a voice that was so firm, showing his position as an Alpha.
But, whoever the man, who became Aurora's mate, did not remain silent. He didn't want to be intimidated by the Supreme Alpha when he replied with the same firmness.
"I will meet her. With or without your permission. She's my mate." The man spoke each sentence very firmly as if Torak had a problem understanding it.
At least, with the way this man replied to Torak, Aurora could feel the Alpha aura in his voice. So, he's not a rogue?
Aurora still felt her vision blur, but she was so excited to see what this man was like, that she tried to get out of bed and meet him, see him in person.
"I am his father." Torak hissed the sentence in a trembling voice. It was unusual for the Alpha to lose his composure like this.
The two of them stood facing each other, and if this was allowed to continue, then Calleb, who was standing between them and was supposed to mediate the dispute, would not be surprised if one of them ended up losing all self-control and shifting into a their beasts, started fighting again. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m
"You know very well the supreme law of our kind, Supreme Alpha," the man said in a low, confident voice. "I don't care if you're the father, but since she's my mate, she's mine."
And with those words, Torak completely lost control of himself, his claws extended and his fangs looked so terrifying, it only took him a second to transform into his white beast form.
However, Aurora's voice stopped the transition process, as does the mysterious man.
Maybe this is what made Torak look uneasy. Because he felt that someone would take his beloved daughter from his side and he couldn't prevent it, because this would happen sooner or later. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚
Torak knew that when Aurora found her mate, she will not belong to him anymore, but… still all of this didn't feel right for the Alpha.
Aurora's bedroom door opened and her petite figure with long black curls covering her chest, appeared. The girl looked so sweet, even though she was now screaming at her father to stop growling.
"Dad stop it," Aurora said sharply.
"Aurora, go to your room." Torak gave orders to his daughter.
But, alas, sometimes when you pamper your daughter too much, she becomes a dead end for you.
"No," Aurora said firmly. She folded her arms across her chest and pursed her lips, staring disapprovingly at Torak through her bright blue eyes.
Seeing Aurora's stubbornness, Torak knew that he would not win this, especially when Raine was by their daughter's side and supported her.
Now the Alpha could only clench his jaw tightly and lean his body against the wall behind him. Feeling annoyed.
"Torak, leave them alone…" Raine said softly, she stood beside her mate and rubbed his arm to ease his emotions.
"No, who knows what this creature will do to our daughter." Torak didn't take his eyes off the man before him.
Meanwhile, the man didn't reply to Torak's fierce words, but from how his shoulders looked so tense, Torak could tell that he was trying to restrain himself from losing control in front of his daughter.
On the other hand, Aurora tried to see the face of the man, but she couldn't because the man covered his face with the hood of the jacket he was wearing. Aurora couldn't see clearly.
However, Aurora could confirm that this man was so big. He was as tall as his father, but much bigger.
Or maybe it was because of the effect of the jacket he was wearing?
"What's your name?" Aurora asked quietly. She felt awkward talking to her mate in front of her parents and this man suddenly didn't say a word once she was there.
"Draghar," he said in a deep, hoarse voice.
"Uhm, I am Aurora," Aurora introduce herself, because Draghar didn't ask her name back.
"I know," he replied in the same stiff tone, then he took Aurora's hand and pulled her away from there.
"Where are you taking my daughter!?" cried Torak angrily, but Raine restrained him from following them. "I will skin him if he ever hurt my daughter."
