Alex said nothing as his father ranted and raved at him.
“Why you should take this little nothing into our family when she is just that! A nothing!”
He had to sit and listen to his father, a man who had never done a single thing in his life to deserve the title ‘father’, degrade the choice of his son to adopt a woman as his sister without his ‘father’s’ approval.

‘You spent decades ignoring my cries, Father. Now it is your turn to be denied.’
Another little part of my Former Guardian universe using a character that I wasn’t even sure was going to show up. Alex’s father is not the kind of character that I like to write about and I honestly never thought he’d show up until he was yelling and screaming at Alex.
I really don’t like him.
