Chapter 80 – A Cool Father-In-Law
••• Kyson’s POV •••
I couldn’t take my eyes off the Moon Goddess as she twirled and disappeared in front of everyone.
“Hey, keep your eyes to yourself!” Night suddenly yelled in my mind.
I rolled my eyes at him. “Why can’t I watch the Moon Goddess?”Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
“We have a mate! I’ll poke your eyes out if she gets jealous!” he retorted angrily.
What the heck? Is there something wrong with his brain?! The Moon Goddess is our Mother, for fuck sake!
“I can hear your thoughts. I’m not crazy! You are the crazy one! The Moon Goddess is still a woman, and you couldn’t take your eyes off her! I should ask the Moon Goddess to separate me from you, then I’ll poke your eyes out,” he snorted smugly.
“You are going to go to the Moon Goddess so you can poke my eyes out? I wonder how Aleena will feel about your idea – asking another woman so that you can poke her mate’s eyes out. Would she feel jealous because you go to another woman? Would she feel angry because then I wouldn’t be able to see her? Maybe she’ll be happy if you separate yourself from me and I get another wolf. Lemme ask her,” I taunted him.
His eyes went huge as if he couldn’t believe I had said all those words.
“Kysonnnnn…” he whined. “You can’t do that to me! I still want to be mated to Aleena and Celia! Please don’t ask her. Please don’t make them hate me. Pretty please…” He tried to act cute and blink those puppy dog eyes. Dammit, I thought he had gotten rid of those cute acts!
Heh, it’s so easy to tame him. I seriously doubt that he is an Alpha Lycan. He is supposed to be terrifying and dangerous, yet he keeps trying to act cute and behaves childishly; he looks like a freakin huge domestic pet dog instead. Though it’s good, he hasn’t asked for a belly rub since Aleena appeared. But sometimes, I wonder if the Moon Goddess hates me and deliberately gave me a broken Alpha wolf.
“No. You want to poke my eyes out, don’t you? I have to ask her about it.” I didn’t back down and purposely turned toward Aleena and opened my mouth, pretending to want to ask her. This should teach him a lesson…
“Kysonnnnn…” Night began whining again but was cut off by someone’s happy voice.
“Aleena, I still can’t believe you are my sister!” Colton’s squeal was the one who interrupted my conversation with Night.
“Thank Goddess for Colton,” I heard Night mutter in my mind.
“I can still ask her later on,” I smirked.
“Okay, okay. I won’t ask the Moon Goddess to separate us or poke your eyes out. Happy?” he glared at me.
“Then stop with your nonsense and be nice to me, or I’ll tell Aleena,” I pretended to threaten him.
“You are the worst! I’ve already promised not to do anything!” he yelled.
“Yeah, yeah. I’m the worst. But you are stuck with me if you still want to be with Aleena and Celia,” I smirked smugly. “Now shut up. We are in our father-in-law’s place. They are having a family reunion. We should be happy for them.”
“Fine…” he mumbled in agreement but still sulked in the corner of my mind.
Ignoring his childish behavior, I looked at Aleena just as she laughed and replied to Colton. “Well… But I am. Take it or leave it, Brother.”
I could feel her joy at finding her family, and I was happy for her, too.
“Of course, I’ll take it! I’ll take you! You are my darling little sis!” Colton exclaimed joyfully.
Suddenly, he got us from his seat, hugged Aleena, and twirled her.
I moved with my Lycan speed and separated them, pushing that damn Adonis of an Alpha away from my mate. “Enough,” I growled, warning him not to touch my mate.
“Why are you so possessive?! She’s my sister!” he yelled while pointing his finger at me.
I snorted at him, “Can’t you see your mate brooding over there?” Lucas was glaring at him, obviously unhappy.
“Don’t worry about him. He’s okay with all these,” Colton waved it away as if he didn’t notice his mate brooding alone.
A hand shot out, and Colton was suddenly pulled onto Lucas’ lap. “Who said I’m okay with it?” he growled.
“I-I-I…” Colton stammered. “Okay, I won’t do it anymore.” He, who had been yelling, suddenly became obedient on Lucas’ lap, just like a cute kitten.
“Look at him. He’s so a bottom,” Night remarked in my mind.
We all heard a cute feminine giggle and turned toward the source of the voice. Aleena was watching us with her eyes twinkling and a huge smile on her face. She was obviously feeling very happy.
She turned to look at Alpha Zane while grabbing my hand. “Dad… This is my mate, Kyson Night,” she introduced me shyly.
“Alpha Zane, it’s nice to meet you,” I greeted my father-in-law with respect.
He came to us and extended his hand to me. “Call me ‘Dad’, Kyson.”
I shook his hand and nodded. “Dad.”
“Sorry for all the trouble we’ve caused you, and thank you for loving Aleena,” he said. He sure was different from other Alphas. He looked gentle and not domineering. But look at his son – Colton was playful, but when in battle, he was ruthless. It must be the same case with Alpha Zane.
“It’s what I should do as her mate. And I should be the one the king Aleena for loving me,” I gave him a smile.
“Hah! If he knew you tried to kill her daughter and even asked Liam to torture her, he wouldn’t say those things,” Night snorted and mocked me.
“Shut up! Do you want him to ask Aleena to reject us?” I retorted, and that shut my stupid wolf up.
“Dad, Dad, this is my mate,” Colton, who didn’t want to be upstaged, pulled Lucas toward us and introduced his mate to his dad.
“Lucas, thank you for loving my son,” Alpha Zane stretched out his hand just like he had done to me, and Lucas shook it.
“Kyson, lemme out. I want to greet Dad-in-law.” I felt Night nudging me and trying to take control of my body.
“Don’t say anything stupid,” I warned before letting him take over.
“Dad, nice to meet you,” Night said smoothly in that fake cool-and-gentlemanly attitude of his.
Everyone turned to look at him. Aleena was the first to notice the change, and she quickly introduced Night to Alpha Zane. “Dad, this is Night. He’s Kyson’s wolf.”
“Dad,” Night greeted Alpha Zane again and bowed his body slightly, which sent everyone into silence.
“Dad, don’t be fooled by him. That wolf is actually super playful. He likes to skip around and ask for belly rubs like a pet dog,” Colton snorted.
I snickered, hearing Colton spilling out Night’s actual characteristics and behaviors.
“Dad, as you can see, I’m an Alpha wolf. There is no way I will have that kind of behavior. Aleena can attest to that. She’s my mate. If I, indeed, liked to be belly-rubbed, I would have asked for it from my mate. But I’ve never done it, haven’t I, Luv?” Night turned to look at Aleena as he spoke in calm confidence.
“Yeah, right,” I rolled my eyes and snorted at him.
Aleena was looking at Night, and it was obvious that she was trying hard not to laugh. “You are right.” She nodded and turned to look at Alpha Zane. “Dad, Night is an Alpha wolf. He’s never playful and is like a gentleman,” she said thoughtfully, though I could see her eyes twinkling playfully.
Night looked at Colton and smiled smugly.
“Aleenaaaa… You are my sister. Why are you siding with Nighttt?” Colton whined.
Night snorted and said, “Look at you, always whining like a little girl. No wonder you are a bottom.”
“Dad, look at him! He’s so annoying,” Colton kept whining.
“You are right, Night. My son is born to be bottom,” Alpha Zane agreed with Night.
“Dad, why are you agreeing with him?” Colton kept trying to deny it, yet he was acting exactly like Night had described him – a little girl.
“Why? Are you not a bottom?” Alpha Zane raised an eyebrow and asked Colton calmly.
“I am, but-” Colton said but was interrupted by Aleena’s and Night’s laughter.
“You just confessed that you are a bottom!” Night exclaimed with glee before saying to Alpha Zane, “Dad, you are amazing! Give me a fist bump.” He offered his fist, and Alpha Zane actually fist-bumped him with a smile.
“Kyson, we got a cool father-in-law,” Night exclaimed gleefully. I laughed, seeing how Alpha Zane was so cool about us teasing Colton.
“Dad, look! Which part of him looks like an Alpha wolf? He’s just pretending!” Colton pointed at Night with a flushed face.
“But I am,” Night said calmly and went back to looking like a perfect gentleman. I had to applaud him for being able to change his personas smoothly and quickly.
Seeing that everyone was ganging up on him, Colton turned to his mate. “Lucas, help me up. Tell them the truth.”
“What truth?” Lucas pretended not to know what he was talking about.
“That Night is a playful wolf, and I’m not a bottom!” Colton kept insisting.
“But you have admitted that you are a bottom. Everyone heard it,” Lucas still pretended to be confused and didn’t try to help his mate.
Everyone laughed, hearing Lucas’ words while Colton stomped his foot, and his face turned even redder. “You guys are bullies!”
“Alright, Colton, you are the top. You are not a bottom,” Alpha Zane finally said as we all saw Colton’s red face.
“Yes, Brother. You are the top,” Aleena chimed in.
“Yes. I’m the bottom, not you.” Even Lucas pretended to agree.
Hearing all their words, Colton turned gleeful and shot a smug smile at Night. Night, in turn, rolled his eyes at Colton.
I shook my head, looking at Colton and Night. Such immature individuals…
“That’s enough, Night. Let’s switch. It’s time for them to have a serious talk,” I told him, and he let me take over my body.
“Alright, let’s all settle down and sit back down. I want to tell your sister everything that happened to us,” Alpha Zane said at the same time I switched control with Night.
