EMRYS POV Of course! I knew it. I knew the meeting with my father wouldn't end just like this. There was still the part where he had to cuss me out and tell me how much of a failure I was. A tiny smirk of satisfaction rose at the corner of my lips as I turned around to face him. “Sit…” he said, as he traced his fingers on the rim of the tiny cup. I hesitated for a while and took a seat. I waited for an interminable length of time which was in the real sense about fine minutes or less. “When would you claim Isabella as your mate?” That wasn't a question. Far from that. If anything, he was asserting. “I have no intention to mate with her…or claim her as my mate,” I answered pointedly. He rubbed his hands against each other. Not losing his calm, not on the verge of throwing punches.
