Egeus.

Egeus' speech in Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" conveys his desire for his daughter Hermia to marry Demetrius, despite her love for Lysander. He appeals to Theseus, the Duke of Athens, to uphold the law that gives him control over Hermia's marriage. Egeus believes Hermia should obey his wishes or face consequences.
Egeus accuses Lysander of using his cunning words and false vows to win Hermia's affections, believing that he has charmed her into loving him against her father's wishes.
Egeus is angry because Hermia refuses to obey his wishes on who she should marry. He has arranged a marriage between Demetrius and Hermia, but Hermia is not cooperating because she is in love with Lysander. It can also be argued that Egeus is angry not simply because of her disobedience, but also because she has actually fallen in love with someone else.
