Iniko: A New Beginning
Dad growls.
“And she is my mate. My mate bond trumps your parent bond,” he growls.
The air kicks up in the room, and I reach out to Iniko.
“It’s okay, Iniko. Dad’s just trying to protect me,” I say, trying to calm him. Almost instantly, the air in the room calms, but doesn’t completely go still.
“As your mate, it is MY job to protect you now,” he says, looking at me to make sure I understand how serious he is.
