Mated To My Boyfriend's Dad novel Chapter 1

Chapter 1: _ Unwanted Love

If every gossiper's tongue were to be severed, how many people would still have theirs?

The first sip of my pumpkin spice latte went the wrong way. I choked, coughing until tears welled up in my eyes. Definitely not a good start to a romantic date with my boyfriend.

"Look, it's her." The first girl whispered to her friend, gesturing at me as I sat, awaiting my boyfriend, Kylo.

The knot in my stomach tightened. The two girls sat behind me in the restaurant, whispering and gossiping about my situation.

I heard the gasp from the second girl. "Holy moonlight, it's her! The one who dares to date the Gamma's son."

"She is so stupid. Everyone knows Gamma Rhett would never allow her to marry his son. Why is she wasting her time?"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, she's enchanted by Kylo's charm, I think. Kylo is the most good-looking guy in the pack. It's such a pity that he has such a father!"

I clenched my fists, my blood running cold. Any minute from now, I might lose my cool. Every fiber of my being screamed at me to turn around and give them a piece of my mind but I swallowed it down. Kylo wouldn't appreciate that and frankly, I didn't want to stoop to their level. "Kylo, where are you?" I muttered under my breath.

The two gossip mongers went on with their banter. "Poor girl. She's going to have her heart broken when Kylo finds his mate and the Gamma gets them married!"

"Don't call her a poor girl. She's just dumb! Even after knowing Gamma Rhett's history, she chooses to date his son still!"

"I know, I know. Can't her parents talk her out of it?"

"Didn't you know? She's an orphan! Her parents were the traitors..."

Just as I thought I'd had enough and was about to stomp to the two gossipers and put them in their places, the restaurant's door jingled, and Kylo stepped in.

Phew!

I sank into my chair, catching my breath. Only the heavens know what I'd have done had Kylo not entered.

"Hey, babe. So sorry for my lateness." Kylo grimaced apologetically as he settled in the chair in front of me.

As much as I didn't want him to see the sadness clouding my face, he noticed. My eyes were glossy as I blinked back tears. "Isleen?" Kylo groaned as awe transformed his face. "Did something happen?"

I was the type to burst into tears when being consoled. The tears streamed down my face in streaks.

Still shocked, Kylo glanced around the restaurant in search of the source of my tears until his gaze settled on the two girls behind. It was barely hard to not notice their judgmental stares directed at me.

This was supposed to be a romantic date for us. I didn't want to ruin it.

My anxieties skyrocketed.
