Chapter 14
Dimitri:
“You are going to be spending the evening with her.” Charlotte said; looking down at my ch*st as she fixed my shirt for me.
The fact that she was trying to be sure that her scent covered me was something that I understood, but I couldn’t help but find myself getting worried about the way that she was behaving; especially since I knew that she could easily end up getting the two of us in more trouble than we could afford.
I stayed quiet though, not saying anything as I had more things to worry about right now, and one of the main things was her father who I knew was now doing his best to either reach her or ruin the things that I have worked hard to maintain.
“You are annoyed tonight.” She said, and I shook my head. I was more than a little annoyed, but I wasn’t going to tell her that, especially considering the reason behind my annoyance. “You can lie to the whole world, Dimitri, but not to me, you know that, right?”
“Baby, I am just tired and I have had a long day. How about we let tonight pass in peace and the two of us can just lay in bed for a few hours,” I said, and she smiled before nodding. It was moments like this with Charlotte that sometimes made it worth while, and though I knew that a lot was at stake, I also knew that I wouldn’t change what we had for anything.
“A few hours is a bit too long for me to handle, especially when I know that you would be spending them with her.” She said, and I chuckled before cupping her cheeks. She leaned into my touch, and I smiled, brushing my finger on her cheek before connecting my l*ps with hers. She pulled away to look me in the eye and I couldn’t help the smile that formed on my l*ps when I noticed that she didn’t try deepening the k*ss. or at least delaying what was going to happen. “I don’t want you being turned on by her side. She doesn’t deserve to see that, and I don’t want others to think that you are affected because of her either.”
“You have your own unique way of being protective, don’t you?” I asked, teasing her, and she blushed before nodding.
“I didn’t fight, being patient, loving you over the years to lose you to an omega. Yes, it may be stupid to actually be comparing myself to her right now, and I know that you are going to tell me that I am worrying over
nothing, but my love for you has beat all the odds, and now I don’t want to see
myself losing you.” I knew that deep down, her underline meaning was the difference of her coming her and Aurora’s.
Aurora, came to me as a bride, regardless of who she is, she was presented to me as the Alpha’s daughter. Charlotte, however, came to me. as a consort. And that was one thing that I knew that her father couldn’t get out of his mind. He sent her to me as a present, believing that she would be my Luna, wanting her as my bride. I chose to have her as a consort to send her back, to my surprise, she chose to lose all her titles, her family, and pack to be with me. And that is something that her father
never got over.
Flashback:
“What do you want me to do with her?” I asked, raising an eyebrow at her father. She looked down at her feet, avoiding my eyes as she held her hands in front of her. Her heart raced, and I could visibly see her
shaking.
“I am giving you my daughter as a bride…”
“I never searched or asked for one.” I said, glaring at the man. “And if you believe that I would take a woman of a lower rank, then I do suggest that you think again, beta.”
“She is of pure blood, beta or not…”

“I said a word,” I said, stopping the man. “Take your girl and get out of my sight.”
“Alpha…”
“I said, out.”
“Father, that is enough.” Charlotte said, catching my attention. “I am not going to be begging for a man’s attention. If he doesn’t want me, then you know that others would be more than willing to have me looking them in the eye.”
“If that is the case, then go and show them to me.” I said, mocking her, and she rolled her eyes.
“You are not the only Alpha out there, and mind you, not the only man with a cock that can screw a woman.” Her father growled in warning, and I raised an eyebrow at her before getting up from my chair.
“You are playing a dangerous game, girl.”
“My name is Charlotte, not girl.” She said, glaring at me.
“Well, ‘Charlotte’, if your father insists on giving you to me, I would take you as a consort. Otherwise, you can walk out that door, and I will remind you that being a consort will strip off all your titles and positions. You are going to be nothing but a slave for my pleasure. And if you believe that as my wife you will be getting anything out of me, then you can find yourself one of your line of men.” I said, testing her. She raised an eyebrow at me before she put a hand on my chest.
“I am looking for a man, not a bank, not a f**king Alpha, or a child who believes that he can own the whole world.” She said, making me raise an. eyebrow. “And I doubt that as your ‘wife’ that I would have any title to begin with. And Luna is not a title that I am aiming for, Dimitri.”
“Alpha…”
“Alpha is on his own terms.” I said, and he raised an eyebrow at me. “To me, you are nothing but Dimitri. To the world, I will value you as the Alpha that you are, but behind closed doors it is Dimitri. So, what do you say, will make a deal with my father or should I show myself to the door?”
I looked at the woman’s father for a second before cupping her right. cheek and connecting my l*ps with hers, taking her off guard. It took her a second, but she was quick to k*ss me back before I pulled away to look her in the eye.
“The maids will get you ready, and I expect to see you in my bedroom. once I am done with your father…”
End of Flashback.
Little did I know that she was going to be the biggest part of my life, and not only that, but she was going to be the one person that has me getting rid of all consorts as to free myself for her and her alone.
“When I see you tonight, I will be sure to give you a reminder of why you. won’t be losing me to the omega.” I teased, running my finger down her waist. “Until then, you are going to be a good submissive girl who won’t cause any trouble, is that clear, Charlotte?”
