#Chapter204
Lila's POV
/"I'm sorry... Who?/" I blurted.
He raised his brow at me, staring at me. Was I supposed to know who he is? I don't remember meeting anyone called Alarix, with a name like his, I wouldn't forget.
/"Protecting him won't help anyone, child./" He grunted.
A low, baleful growl reverberated from my dad. /"I said you could speak to my daughter... Not badger her./" He snarled.
/"Excuse me? I can't protect someone I don't know. Don't treat me like a fucking child./" I growled.
I don't care if he's the vampire king. I don't deserve to be spoken to like a child. I legit have no idea who he is, why the fuck would I be protecting him? I have never backed down from a mission... And this one will be no different. I've trained for this one.
Amusement whirled around in his eyes. /"I can see why you're Alarix's beloved./" He grinned. /"You'll make a fine leader./" He quipped.
