Filed To Story: Mated To Big Brother-in-law
She was really in a bad mood.
She would keep Rose’s matter to herself. But she wanted to share with Bryan about Victor purchasing young girls.
She felt deep hatred for Victor, and right now, she just wanted to kill that man.
In her eyes, that man did not deserve to live.
She noticed Juliana and Bethany in the living room. They glanced at her when she walked in. She stopped and asked,
“Is everything okay?”
She thought Mila was not okay. But Juliana spoke up.
“Bryan got a notice from the council.”
Sophia frowned as she walked toward her. “Council? What do they want?”
“As per the rules of the council, they sent a reminder notice to Bryan about the law of the Night Shade Pack. They claim they have a complaint that you are not Bryan’s mate, but rather someone he secretly rejected and killed. So they want Bryan to mark you as soon as possible.”
Sophia was dumbfounded. “I am not his mate? Who complained about it?”
Then she understood who could do these kinds of things. It was Victor, for sure.
“You know who can do that. Your father-in-law talked to Bryan about it. Now I am telling it to you too. You both should finish the mating process so that we can prepare for the crown ceremony as soon as possible,” Juliana said.
Sophia’s brows were lifted when Juliana referred to Alpha Harry as Sophia’s father-in-law.
Did she finally accept her as her daughter-in-law?
Sophia glanced at Bethany and asked,
“How is Mila?”
“She is fine.”
“I know what happened to her was wrong.”
“She is more afraid of Victor. She was crying this morning because she faced Victor last night. She said she almost lost consciousness when Victor threatened her,” Bethany replied.
Sophia understood that Mila was not afraid of Bruce’s mark, but she was scared after meeting Victor alone again. After seeing Rose’s condition today, she could understand how Mila had felt.
“How is your mother?” Juliana asked.
Sophia turned to her and replied, “She has woken up. The doctor said she is fine now.”
Juliana nodded her head at her. Sophia could see a glimpse of Julaina, who used to talk to her sweetly and softly when Sophia was Bruce’s girlfriend. It was as if she was slowly becoming normal.
Sophia went upstairs to the bedroom. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Bryan standing near the window.
He was in deep thought.
She closed the door and walked toward him.
“I need to talk to you about something,” she said, as she wanted to talk about the girls.
“If you want to talk about me marking you, then stay away from me tonight. My wolf is out of control today. I don’t know when he would mark you without asking for your consent. I don’t want to make a mistake like Bruce,” Bryan replied without turning to her.
Sophia paused and stared at his back for a while.
Why was he saying that? Did he not want to mark her? Did he think she still hated him?
She approached him and hugged him from behind. She rubbed her nose against his shirt and mumbled,”Without my consent? What if I give you my consent, Alpha?”
Bryan turned around to face her. Sophia raised her head and gasped when she saw his red eyes.
They appeared different from other times. When his brows wrinkled, she almost took a step back.It was his wolf. He let his wolf take over him in front of her for the first time.
In a blink of her eyes, he pressed her against the wall beside the window and looked into her eyes. She did not let her wolf cage anymore; she let her take over as well.Her ocean blue eyes shone as they met his red eyes.
He leaned down at her and asked,
“Are you sure, my omega?”
His voice was huskier, shivering her from inside.
“Y-Yes, my Alpha,” she replied, wrapping her hands around his neck.
She thought he would kiss her, but he leaned against her neck directly, and his sharp canines came out as if he could not wait for other things to mark her.She closed her eyes and caressed his hair, letting him do whatever he wanted to do with her. She was all his.
However, as soon as his canines touched her neck, Bryan immediately pulled away and stared at her neck.
He did not mark her because there was something wrong.
He took over his wolf and came back to his senses. His eyes turned black as he looked at her neck with wide eyes.
Bloodlines appeared on her neck where his canines had come into contact. The blood lines turned black, as if there was poison spreading throughout her body.
However, it faded after a few seconds.
He turned his gaze at her face. She looked at him with confusion.
“What happened?” she asked.
His face turned nervous for the first time. He cupped her face as he asked,
“Did Victor do something to you when you were with him?”
Her eyes widened. “What are you saying? He never touched me.”
He shook his head. “I didn’t mean that by asking it.”
“T-Then? Is everything okay?”
Bryan glanced at her neck again, then closed his eyes to calm himself.
He stepped backward and said, “Go to bed. It’s late. You were outside the whole day. You need to take some rest.”
She was stunned. “Why? Why don’t you want to mark me? Don’t you love me anymore?”
Her eyes turned teary. He clenched his jaw, seeing tears in her eyes.
No matter how much Bryan tried to stop loving this woman, just looking at her made him love her more.
He could not just stay mad at her.
Raising his hand, he placed it on her head. While looking into her eyes, he muttered,
“You are a strong woman. Never forget that.”
She did not know why he was saying that. Her heartbeat fastened when he leaned in and kissed in the corner of her mouth.
“Goodnight. Be a good girl and sleep.”
She smiled when he softened his tone toward her. As if she felt relaxed, she nodded at him and went to the bed.
She lay down, covered her body with a blanket, and closed her eyes before glancing at him.
On the other hand, Bryan was observing Sophia. When he was certain she had fallen asleep, he exited the room and called Angelina.
Angelina arrived at the pack house within an hour and entered the bedroom.
Bryan signaled her to Sophia and said,
“Just check everything quickly. I don’t want her to wake up and find out anything.”
Angelina grabbed Sophia’s hand and pierced a needle into her arm. Sophia hissed in sleep briefly before settling down.
Bryan was relieved that she had not woken up.
Angelina removed the needle from Sophia’s arm. She pulled out a bottle of green potion from her bag. When she inserted the needle in the bottle, the green potion started to turn transparent.
Angelina was taken aback. She turned her head at Bryan, who was desperately waiting for her answer.
Angelina stood up and said,
“Alpha, when you called me and told me about the symptoms, I came with the potion that might have been injected into her body. The result is clear in your eyes.”
“Did he dare to poison my woman?”
