"What did you say?"
Coulter was unable to swallow what she just said that's why he was stunned by her once again. It was not he did not hear her the first time but he had to make sure whatever he just heard was accurate. He was sure that his daughter would not do something like that after all it which was equal to risking her own life too.
"Lydia? Tell me, did you just….did you just mark someone from Class C?"
He questioned her once again by looking straight into her eyes and hoped to find any hint of joke in her eyes. He had no clue that she would stoop so low just trouble him. Coulter waited for a moment before he actually acted up upon finding that she was not kidding.
"Oh, Lydia! Lydia!"
He shook his head and held his face in both hands making a worried expression. There was an utter worry and horror on his face which made Lydia satisfied. She wanted to see him like that, to see him suffering and worrying over his related to him.
"What did you even do, girl!?"
He lifted his face and made sure that Lydia could see his angry eyes. Whereas the woman did not even flinch at his madness and rage, because she was ready for it and needed to see exactly those kind of expression on his face.
"How can you even risk your life like this?"
Coulter stood upon rage while wearing one half sock and he needed to do about the matter with her. It was not as easy thing with which she could get away without flying consequences. The woman had to give an explanation of where she met him and how did it even happen.
Well, not like he was interested in sexual details.
"Risk my life? How its even equal to risking my life? I fell in live and we decided to make it official. That's all."
Lydia was sure that her words had cast an effect on him and he was unable to keep himself calm with all that shit. That's why she provoked him further upon seeing that Coulter was growing angry and conscious about her safety.
Since most of the class C vampires were either involved in illegal activities or were simply appointed in lower class ranks with odd jobs. That's what mattered him more to find out which lower ranked vampire his daughter even marked and why? After all, it was not easy now to break their bond and the guy did not intend to leave her at any cost.
That would give Coulter an unnecessary and long lasting consequences to suffer with. He grew impatient and took a step further but before he could step and closer Lydia spoke something which made him halt immediately.
"Don't you dare lecture me, dear. Or even try to pester me to leave him, because I am not going to."
Lydia paused for a moment while raising her hand up to stop Coulter from leaping towards her and probably strangle Lydia to death to save himself. The woman smirked and threatened him to keep calm and to comply her or else she could do even more than what she had already down.
"Don't even try to do any such thing to break us apart dad, or else I will make it official which would definitely cost you your reputation."
Coulter gritted his teeth and curled his fingers into a fist, the anger was visible on his face but he had to suppress it. It was surprising for him, and it had been first time that he had been taken him down by force and cleverly that he was unable to refuse or react. It was expected because after all the one in front of him this time time his own flesh and blood.
How could Lydia act differently when she was his own biological daughter!? The woman was sure that her this current plan would definitely work. And after knowing her mate was from Class C would definitely make him go mad. And exactly that's what happened which satiated her ego.
"Now are you threatening me? Do you even have any idea with who you you talking to? I am your father! Mind you language, girl!"
The man yelled at her with all his might, he could not step further acknowledging that Lydia would definitely do something stupid to make him burst. It was wise to proceed with the calmness and cool mind.
Lydia scoffed and laughed a bit hysterically as she looked at him with a meaningful gaze. The woman did not let go of any moment when she could mock him on every single thing.
"Whoa! Are you for real!? Now you suddenly are concerned about me and recalled that's you are my father? Haha….that's a funny thing!"
Her words hurt him as much as his insensitive behaviour made Lydia suffer up till now. The woman stared at him and folded her arms making Coulter think about his words. After all all could nit afford to let his brain run loose because his reins were in her hands now. The lady's mock was enough to drive Coulter crazy as he sat down back in the sofa to keep himself calm.
"What do you want now? I'm I'm you have not marked someone from Class C just to trouble me, right? Tell me what's the reason heard this reckless decision?"
He knew his daughter very well and it was simply not the reason why would go to such an extent. There was definitely something behind her actions.
Lydia smiled at him meaningfully as the woman licked her lower lip in a victorious gesture. She was sure that the perfect moment had arrived to make Coulter do what she wanted. After all whatever she had done was now proven to be in her favour, Lydia could definitely seize the chance to make him accept Kayden.
The woman smiled at him with an evil gaze whereas Coulter expected no less from his daughter. At least he was sure that she took after him in being sneaky and sly. And low key it made him relived and happy that one day if something happens to him she could take care of herself.
