Alpha Dimitri By LS Barbosa ( Aurora Sforza )

Chapter 39

Aurora:

“What?” I asked, shaking my head in question as I tried processing what the Alpha just woke me

up

with

The news of the elders showing up was something, but the fact that they were choosing to come today was not something that I understood, especially considering the fact that it was them coming unannounced.

“They called and arranged a meeting, and we are going to have to accept it. He said, and I took a deep breath before nodding.

“You know that I am neither ready nor am I dressed for a meeting. I don’t even know if we have anything to properly prepare for them, and the concierges…

“We are going to have to deal with the things that we have. They are not coming for dinner or lunch, but I think that we can arrange a small reception for coffee or tea.” Dimitri said, and I took a deep breath before nodding. The fact that I was still in the infirmary room was something that annoyed me when it came to the fact that I knew that the elders were coming. The last thing that I wanted or needed was for them see me being ill, and here I was, going to deal with factors that were yet again against me.

“Where are you going?” He asked, and I raised an eyebrow at the man. His words from last night still played in my head and the fact that we had a genuine moment, at least one, was something that I was more than thankful for. It pained me to know that I would have had to deal with factors alone, and I didn’t know what was going to come out of this. But at least I would know who my omega parents were, whether they were dead or alive was not going to be making a difference right now. I just wanted to know who they were and where they came from

“I am going to go and get ready. Also, the fact that we are going to have to prepare the reception is something that I am going to need to take care of, Dimitri. I think that you know that no matter how much I wanted it to be easy, it is not, it will never be when it is elders that are coming.” I said, taking a deep breath as I ran my fingers through my hair. “I know a few places that can prepare last minute receptions. We worked with them a few times when hosting unexpected events or -gatherings: I-will go and make the calls before getting ready, then I will see to preparing the drinks and living room.”

A small smile played on the Alpha’s l*ps, and I couldn’t help but notice the pride that replaced his normal glare before I took a step back and turned to the door. The last thing that I wanted or needed was a delay, and I knew that if I was going to spend my evening chitchatting with the Alpha, that the elders would not only be here, but would end up finding an empty house with nothing to give them as a complementary welcome to our pack house reception. And I wasn’t the type who would allow such mistakes. Omega blood or not, I grew up as a noble woman, and I knew what it was to host such events, and I was not going to let my parents down, even if they were not my biological ones.

I entered my bedroom and picked up my phone from my dresser before dialing the bakery’s number.

“Hello, this is Pinkoli Bakery, Jasmine speaking, how may I help you?” One of the receptionists answered

“Jasmine, I would like to place an urgent reception delivery, and I need it ready in an hour.” I said, taking a deep breath. “You can tell Koli that it is Aurora. And she would be more than willing to have things ready for me within the timeframe….

“How the hell did you…?”

“I told you that I am going to be able to arrange an evening. All I had to do was make a few phone calls.” I said, fixing my dress as I nodded at the maids to set the reception the way that I wanted it. I looked at Dimitri whose eyes met mine and I walked toward him before fixing his shirt carefully. He looked down at my hand and I could tell that he was more than a little surprised about how I was doing things. But that didn’t come as a surprise to me. I wanted to do this and I aimed to be at my best of states in front of the elders.

I knew that they were close to my pack and the first thing that they would do is either report to my parents or find me rude, and I wanted to deal with neither one of the situations that I knew would have consequences that I did not want to deal with. Plus, there was also the fact that I wanted to ensure that even I had my best of figures. I didn’t want anyone looking at me as the omega blood, and that was something that I was going to prove.

“You need to go and get things ready from your side, I am not sure what you need to do, but I am going to be tending to things here.” I said, and he took a deep breath before taking a step back. I knew that this was something that he didn’t of me, but I was tired of the way that he was treating me earlier. At least, when it came to the elders, I knew to maintain a certain limit.

“Luna, where do you want us to place these?” Akshana asked, taking me off guard. I smiled and turned to face her as I looked at the small cakes. They looked like samples, but they ensured that all guests were able to taste them without feeling the need to go and change plates every once and a while. The maids would be turning with service plates and each guest would be able to fill their plate with whatever they liked. This way, I knew that everyone would be happy.

“Please these in the center.” I said, looking at the maids. “You are going to first start with the cold drinks. The co cktails and normal juices. Those that do not want juices are to be offered water. Next, I want the cold desserts to turn around. And the finally the coffee and tea based on preference.”

“None of the cups or glasses are to be left empty, unless asked to stop serving.” I said, and they nodded. “Good, if there are no other questions, you can go and get ready. The elders are going to be here in a bit. And I want everything to top notch, am I making myself clear?”

“Look at you being Luna.” Ivan stated, catching my attention as the maids cleared the place. Iturned to look at him and shook my head in question, waiting to hear what he had in mind to be here right now. I didn’t feel like arguing with the man and I was mostly tired of him approaching me with whenever he found himself annoyed to simply trigger my own annoyance.

“Is there anything that I can help you with, Ivan? As I have things to tend to, and though I am aware that you do not care, I do.” I said, and he chuckled.

“Not at all, I just came to see you playing your role. I heard that you were going to have the elders over.” He said, and nodded.

“Your Alpha is either in his office or getting ready. I have things to take care of and the last thing that I need is to be dealing with you. If you will excuse me…”
