Mated to Four Alphas Chapter 103: First Clash- 2••

Damon’s POV

"Kael, this is not the ti to fight. We’re adults now—we can’t argue like children anymore. You know that too. So, control your temper."

As I spoke, Kael’s eyes were locked on , burning with anger.

As his older brother, I didn’t know what to do. I always felt weak in front of Kael whenever he got angry.

"That’s exactly what I’m saying! Why are we even fighting? Because of that Oga. He’s an outsider—not even from our pack! So throw him out of your company. I don’t want you working with him anymore."

"Kael, be reasonable, will you?" Seriously, where was this even coming from? He’s not from our pack, throw him out of the company, don’t work with him?

Kael was being completely childish. Right now, he was just throwing a tantrum.

"If you really think of as your brother, then you’ll do what I’m asking. It’s about that Silas—"

"Kael, I can’t just throw him out like that. I signed a contract with him. And it wasn’t him who ca to —I was the one who went after him, wanting him to work in my company. Do you understand that?"

Since when did we start mixing personal feelings with professional work? I never did that. Even if I had personal conflicts, I never let them affect my work.

That’s sothing I learned as a businessman.

Suddenly, Kael sat down on the sofa, crossing his arms over his chest.

"I don’t want to talk to you anymore. You can leave."

See? What am I supposed to do when he acts like this? Last ti, when he got angry, he even hurt himself. That’s why I get scared and weak in front of his anger. I don’t want him to hurt himself again.

"Okay, I’ll do as you say," I said.

He imdiately looked at . "Really? You’re going to throw him out of the company and send him back to his pack? I don’t want to see him again."

Kael doesn’t know yet that Silas can’t go back to his pack now. He doesn’t know what happened to Silas, why he left, or the truth behind it.

But I do. And honestly, I feel terrible about it.

"I’m doing as you ask, so promise —you won’t get angry like this again, and you won’t hurt yourself, okay?"

Kael suddenly stood up and hugged .

"I’m happy because no Oga can co between us. If an Oga ever does, I know that’ll be the day we four go our separate ways."

I don’t believe an Oga could ever break us apart. They say blood is thicker than water, and our brotherly bond is strong—unshakable.

And for my brother, I’d do anything. Anything. I could even kill. I could do whatever it takes. Because we’re family.

Kael’s mood instantly lightened after hearing . After that, he ordered pizza and called Lysander to apologize.

He did apologize, and since Lysander knew how bad Kael’s temper could be, he forgave him easily.

We both sat on the sofa. I knew that tomorrow’s headlines would be all about Silas, but for so reason, I didn’t call anyone or try to stop it.

Because, in the end, I didn’t want to fight with my own brother over an Oga I had only t a few months ago.

Still, I couldn’t ignore the thought creeping into my mind—I was getting overly possessive of him. And yet, he wouldn’t even spare a glance. He kept rejecting over and over. I knew he was different from other Ogas, but maybe... maybe it was ti to stop.

He’s my artist. Nothing more than that.

I’m not dating him. He’s not even my mate.

So as his boss, I should start acting like one.

The way I was spoiling him, it was as if I was giving him permission to disrespect my family, my brother, my pack.

I shouldn’t have done that from the start. I should have controlled myself—my emotions, my feelings.

So from now on, I am only his boss. Nothing more.

I won’t give him any special treatnt. No favors, nothing. I’ll treat him just like any other artist under my company.

And as for that strawberry pheromone... maybe it was just a mistake on my part.

Silas’s mate rejected him, so of course, he’s not going to believe in love anymore. He’s not going to date anyone.

And I don’t think he trusts anyone now—especially not an Alpha.

It was foolish of to keep acting like an idiot in front of him when he wouldn’t even spare a glance.

My room was already in that mansion, so I went back, shut the door behind , and stepped into the cold shower.

After taking a shower, I stepped out, but everything that happened today kept replaying in my mind.

And I realized—I shouldn’t have said those things about Silas and Jeren.

I shouldn’t have acted the way I did today.

Whether Silas is in a relationship with Jeren or not, that’s their business. So why was I getting angry?

What I was feeling... it was just attraction. He’s beautiful and cute—that’s probably why I thought I had feelings for him.

But the truth is, I don’t have any feelings for him. I’m sure of it... I don’t.

As I lay down on the bed, I just stared at the ceiling, unable to sleep.

I didn’t want to close my eyes.

And I didn’t even know why.

I fell asleep without even realizing it and only woke up the next morning when I heard Kael talking on the phone, standing beside .

Seeing him, I sat up and stretched, cracking my neck.

"Kael, what are you doing in my room?" I asked.

"I got a call from Mom and Dad. They’re enjoying their trip. Mom video-called to show how beautiful the beach is. She wanted to see you, so I ca into your room."

Hearing that, I felt happy. Mom and Dad were enjoying themselves, Dad actually took Mom on that long trip, and knowing that made feel relieved.

I had a lot of work to do today, so without wasting any ti, I got up and left.
