Chapter 18
Fabrizio had gone to the mansion, he was furious, the guards blocked his way, by orders of the alpha they did not let him enter. His attempts to speak to Eros had been in vain; The alpha refused to receive it. This left Fabrizio bewildered, he only hoped that his granddaughter would not be harmed by the actions she was about to do against the queen. Resigned, he would wait for the day of the warriors’ arrival to look for an opportunity to speak with him.
Danna was looking to Eros for details about the reception of warriors from other packs, who would join them for battle. On my way to the House of Beasts.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Inside the house, Eros entered holding Eos’ hand. The beasts snarled and bared their sharp teeth at the sight of the big man with his puppy. Eros tensed, fearing that the princess would be hurt. Hercules was alert, ready to take control.
“Zeus and Memnon, behave with the handsome alpha,” Eos said, frowning as he stared at the animals. Then he looked up at Eros. Handsome alpha, get close to them so they can smell you. You’ll see that they won’t do anything to you.
Eros, filled with fear, took a few steps toward the beasts. The wolves sniffed him and smelled the man’s scent just like their puppy’s, then leaned like submissive dogs towards Eos. She smiled at them and hugged Zeus lovingly.
“That’s the way I like it, my clever little wolf. You have to protect the handsome alpha like you do with me.
The wolf looked up and fixed it on Eros. Then he looked away and focused his attention on the girl, who began to stroke his fur affectionately.
“Zeus is mine, handsome alpha. He will always protect me,” the girl stammered with a mischievous smile.
Eros noticed a strong connection between that animal and his daughter. This bothered him, though he didn’t understand why. For a moment, he felt jealous and irritated. His distraction was shattered when he heard footsteps.
At that very moment, the door opened and Danna made her entrance.
“Mommy, I brought my handsome alpha to meet Zeus and Memnon. They’re going to take care of it like they take care of us.
What Danna heard was not at all to her liking. She glared at Eros and then crouched down to her daughter’s level to speak calmly.
“Puppy, you can’t take up all of the alpha’s time. I’ve already told you that Eros has duties to his pack, and people may misunderstand you annoying him so much.
Those words hit like a bomb in Eros’ heart, filling him with sadness. Although he understood the reason behind those words, he didn’t blame her for wanting to protect his daughter from him, he knew that she deserved his contempt because of her actions in the past.
“Handsome Alpha, don’t be sad. I know you’re my father, that’s why I want to be with you. The girl blurted out with a beaming smile on her face.
“Daughter, why do you say that?” Danna was startled by her daughter’s unexpected statement. His eyes narrowed as he cast a piercing gaze at Eros, searching for an answer.
“Your Majesty, I swear I have no idea where I get that I am your father. I know I’ve promised to get away from the princess, but when she looks for me, I can’t refuse the girl’s requests,” he replied with sadness and tranquility in his voice.
“Mommy, the handsome alpha didn’t say anything to me. Don’t scold him. She was the pretty lady with the white light, with whom I spoke before arriving in these lands. He told me that the alpha here is my dad, that I should come and help his people and my dad. I didn’t tell you because it was a secret between me and her.
Danna stood up, shocked by her daughter’s revelation. It crossed her mind: “I can’t believe my little girl knew who her father was. No wonder my puppy’s attachment to Eros. If it really was the goddess Selene, why would I choose my daughter?” There she realized that she needed to visit the fairy colony that her grandmother had mentioned to her in order to better understand her daughter’s gifts. With a serious tone he expressed.
“Daughter, I’d rather you keep calling him alpha like you’ve been doing and not Dad.”
Eos pouted annoyed; she wasn’t happy with what her mom asked of her. He jumped into the alpha’s arms. Eros, dismayed by his daughter’s revelation, knew that his little girl was a special being, deep down he thanked the goddess Selene for the help. He picked her up, he didn’t want the girl to disobey her mother.
“Princess, you must do your mother’s bidding and do everything she tells you. It doesn’t bother me that you call me Alpha.
Eos leaned close to Eros’ ear and whispered softly.
“Handsome Alpha, don’t be sad. I know I’m your daughter and I’ll tell you daddy when Mommy leaves,” she said in such a tender way that Eros couldn’t stop her eyes from filling with tears.
Danna listened to what her puppy said and didn’t understand why her daughter didn’t obey her when she was with the alpha. He expressed himself seriously.
“Eos, I heard what you said. I think you need a good spanking to get you to obey me again.
The girl began to cry and put her little hands around Eros’ neck, as she babbled.
“Mommy, why are you scolding me?” Yes, he’s, my dad.
Eros was totally moved to hear his daughter’s crying. He hugged her to comfort her and the little girl cuddly buried her head in her father’s neck.
Danna felt like she couldn’t handle her daughter’s tantrums. He gave a big sigh to tell Eros why he was there.
“Alpha Eros, I was looking for you to coordinate the welcome in the square to the alphas and warriors who will arrive tomorrow. He sighed resignedly before continuing. When you’re done, look for me in the office. I’ll be there working. He turned around and walked toward the exit of the house.
Eros let out a suppressed sigh, feeling as if he had been relieved of a burden. It was a breakthrough that his puppy knew he was her father and that Danna allowed him to share with her daughter. She began to caress her daughter’s head gently to soothe her, while whispering to her in a cuddly voice.
“My princess, let’s go to the apple trees, come with me to pick your favorite fruit.”
The little girl poked her little face with tears in her eyes, with a flirtatious smile nodding her head. Eros’ heart seemed to want to leap out of his chest with emotion. She joyfully went out with her daughter in her arms into the forest.
