Kodi’s P.O.V
The next day I was pacing back and forth in my office, wondering how to tell Alpha Brandon that his only daughter is my mate. It was a hard enough job to tell a man that his daughter is your mate, but Alpha Brandon was a different kettle of fish all together. I carried on pacing when there was a knock at my office door, snapping me out of my train of thought.
“Enter.” I called out, curious as to who it was as I wasn’t expecting anyone. The door slowly opened and then my cousin Lisa walked inside. She was at least five foot six, with short red hair, blue eyes and thankfully she wasn’t all skin and bones, she had a little meat on her, which was good because she was a fighter.
“Hey Kodi, how did it go last night? You came home early, but why did something happen?” Lisa asked, c*****g her head to the side.
“Yeah, you could say that. I found my mate, but you will never guess who her father is.” I replied, knowing she would never guess. Lisa stood there for a fair few minutes, tapping her foot, rubbing her chin and then tapping her fingers against her chin, thinking hard of who my mate and her father could possibly be.
“Okay, I give up. Who is your mate and who is her father?” Lisa asked, finally conceding. I started laughing at the look on her face and how strained she looked while trying to think.
“Well, her name is Leah and her parents are Brandon and Carla.” I replied and she started laughing hard, but when she saw how serious I looked she stopped.
“Seriously? Are you joking with me?” Lisa asked and I shook my head no.
“Well, at least it's not the Mafia King's daughter. What are you going to do? You know you're going to have to face him sooner or later, I think you should give him a call and tell him because you can’t hide forever.” Lisa said, shaking her head as she looked up Alpha Brandon’s number.
“Oh yes I can, but yeah, you’re right. Give me a few minutes. I guess I have to make the call.” I said and watched as Lisa tried her hardest not to smirk at me as she sat down on the couch. This was going to be a hard enough conversation and now I had an audience as Lisa was going to sit and watch me make this call. I picked up my cell phone and dialed the number that Lisa had found, tapping my foot as I listened to it ring.
Brandon’s P.O.V
I had so much to do today that there was no chance I would be able to get out of my office before midnight. Carla had enjoyed beating up Pamela so much that she was looking forward to her next fight and I had to find out who her next challenger was and also where and when it would be held. The next thing I had to do after that was a conference call with two stupid and pathetic Alpha’s who were arguing and fighting over territory. They both had huge pieces of land and the territory in question was just between their borders, but it was only a small piece of land, so why even bother arguing over it? This was just the start of all the things I had to do, so I hurried to eat my breakfast and kissed Carla before she went to train and hugged Leah before she went to the gym to watch her mother. I left the kitchen and went to my office, sitting down behind my desk in my comfortable black leather chair and started up my computer. I typed a few things for the pack records, read through my emails and was just about to email the fight organisers for details of Carla’s next challenger when my cell started to ring. I knew it wasn’t time for the call from the Alpha’s, but who else would be calling me at this time in the morning. I pulled my cell out of my pocket and when I looked at the screen I recognised the number immediately.
“Hey Alpha Kodi, it's been a while since we last spoke, how are you? What's going on with you lately?” I asked, but was met with Alpha Kodi sighing, which made me wonder what was wrong.
“Hey Alpha Brandon, I think we need to talk.” Kodi replied, piquing my curiosity.
“Yeah, okay, what about? Is there something on your mind?” I asked and then I heard him take a deep breath, which made me even more curious.
“Well, er, yeah there is actually….” Alpha Kodi replied, but he sounded so nervous and worried.
“Okay, well spit it out, I can’t help you if you don’t tell me what the problem is.” I said, getting impatient.
“I went to watch the fight last night and well, while I was there I smelled this really intoxicating scent and I followed it, but when I found it I...er….I saw you with your daughter. She’s my mate. I left when I found out because I didn’t want to scare her and you know how we are when we find our mates, but also because she didn’t seem to sense or smell me, so I’m assuming she hasn’t shifted yet.” Alpha Kodi said, then suddenly stopped talking. I was shocked for a little while and didn’t say anything.
Alpha Kodi’s P.O.V
The line went dead silent and it made me wonder if the call had been disconnected or something, but then Alpha Brandon started laughing, which if I’m being honest both worried and scared me a little. I had just told him that his only daughter was my mate and his reaction was to laugh?
“Alright man, I tell you what, in two days it's Leah’s birthday, so how about you and some of your pack come over tonight and stay for the two days. If you two are mates then I think you need to get to know one another, but I won’t tell her your mates and she will have to find out on her own. I’ll see you in a few hours.” Alpha Brandon replied, but then the phone went dead. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? What the hell do I do? I looked over at Lisa, pleading with her with my eyes and hoping that she would agree to come with me.
“Yeah, of course I’ll come with you. I want to come and have a front row seat when you land on your face, especially because knowing you, you will be unable to say two words to her.” Lisa replied, laughing at me. I was glad I didn’t have to ask her, but at the same time I was annoyed because I knew that she was right.
“Go pack for a few days and also tell Scott and Zayn to do the same, they’re coming with us.” I said and she nodded, even though she was still laughing.
