My Alpha Mate's Christmas Gift novel Chapter 91

　　He had to find a way to get her to like him, to love him. Now that she had Awakened, it was only a matter of time before she began to feel the way he felt, but from what he saw the other day and also Dax and Melissa's words, he had a feeling she still wouldn’t budge.

　　“I don’t know how long I can take this rejection… I-I…” His thoughts rang.

　　“Oh? Who would’ve thought that there was something that the great Asher can’t do! So, tell me… Who is the unfortunate soul? Is it Peggy? Sara? Or… Don't tell me… Is it Camilla?” He smirked.

　　Asher knew he was making fun of him. His father was always like this, he knew how to get under his skin. However, Asher was determined to get what he wanted from him.

　　“Her name is Roxanne… She's not from around here…” Asher said.

　　“Roxanne, eh? So what exactly do you want from me?”

　　Asher narrowed his eyes as he glared at his father, who smiled amusedly. Clearly, he was enjoying this.

　　“How do I get Roxanne to fall in love with me?” Asher asked.

　　He looked at his old man, despite any feeling of anger he had toward his old man, even Asher had to admit that there was once a time in his life when he respected and loved his father. This was because of one thing his father was known for… His way with people.

　　His father, unlike him, was a very social person. Even as a child, Asher would watch as his father handled people and talked to them. As a result, he was loved by many and well respected, a direct contrast to Asher back then, who was only feared.

　　One day, Asher asked his father his secret. How he was able to fully interact and relate with anyone. His father smiled and said to him...

　　"It's easy… I just know what people want, and I give it to them. The only way to get along with people is to know who they are, and what they desire. "

　　Asher didn’t understand those words then, he still didn’t understand them now. This was why he wasn’t able to gain Roxanne's affection. Unlike other members of his pack, and wolf community, Roxanne was uncharted territory. For the rest of his people, he only had to show them strength and make decisions, most of which were rational.

　　As a result, they obeyed him, feared him, and respected him. But Roxanne was different. They belonged to entirely different words so they couldn't relate to each other. He thought if anyone could help him, it would be his father. After all, he was the previous Alpha of the Rockwood Pack… John!

　　“Uahahahahahahahaha!!!” John burst out in laughter.

　　The roaring tone he used made Asher's skin crawl, and the echo effect made the waves bounce around the room.

　　“Wow! I never expected you to actually say it out loud like that! I thought you would have left at this point. After all, you can't stand this old man" John bellowed, still chuckling.

　　“Will you help me or not?” Asher asked, his clenched fists still tightening further.

　　John grinned widely and nodded his head. Slowly, he rose to his feet, revealing his figure even more. He looked tall, bigger than Asher. His muscular figure was intimidating, and he wasn’t wearing any shirt to cover his insanely built body. He wore khaki shorts, which only covered his legs up to the knee.

　　The lower part of his legs were covered with hair, shaking as he took steps forward. His hair was unnatural for a man, as long as a woman's. He had a large beard. His chest hair was also apparent as he stepped forward, slowly and steadily. Before long, he was directly in front of Asher, who still remained focused on his father's eyes.

　　“Heh, fine! I’ll help you, why not? After all… You're still my son!” He grinned widely.

　　Asher's heart relaxed with relief at his father’s words. Finally, he was going to make considerable progress with his mate.

　　“Then…” Asher wanted to begin preparations.

　　“But first, you’ll need to do something for me.” John interrupted, raising his index finger to signify the number.

　　“Really? If it’s what I think, then you know I won’t-“

　　“It's not that! This is different… So, will you do it?” John asked.

　　“It depends, what is it?” Asher asked, looking at his father suspiciously.

　　“It’s simple, really… This Mate of yours, Roxanne… I want to meet her. Bring her here, ``he said.

　　“What?!” Asher let out with surprise.

　　“Do that, and we have a deal. I’ll help you as much as you want!” John added.

　　Asher remained silent, not knowing what to say to his father.

　　“What? You can’t do that?” John asked with a mock smile.

　　Asher knew his father very well. He was a stubborn old man who would never budge if he wasn’t satisfied, but he was also a man of his word. That meant one thing.

　　If he wanted to get his father’s help, he would need to somehow find a way to make Roxanne appear before him. With the way things were between them, he wondered how that would go.

　　“It just might make things worse…”
