The story of Alpha

Chapter 63

Dimitri:

I watched as Aurora walked back with the Lord Alpha, and though both seemed to be calm, I couldn’t help but wonder why he approached her in the first place.

“Hey,” Aurora said, and I nodded, wrapping an arm around her waist as I pulled her to me. She looked down at my hand for a second before smiling as she looked at the Lord Alpha. His eyes met mine, and he nodded.

“She is a woman to keep, and I do suggest that you keep that in mind even after the years that the two of you spend together.” He said, and I frowned in confusion. Aurora looked down at her feet, blushing, before he smiled at her. “It was a nice conversation that the two of us had, Aurora.”

“Thank you, Lord Alpha. At least now you know why I used to like spending time in front the oak tree.” She said, and the Lord Alpha smiled and nodded. Elder Jordan looked at the two of them before shaking her head, and I watched as she turned to look at Ivan and Natalia.

“It was a pleasure meeting you, Natalia. And as always, it was nice seeing you and Alpha Dimitri, Aurora.” She said, looking at Aurora. She nodded in response, smiling at the elder before she and Natalia shared a glance. Mostly because even Natalia knew that she disrespected Aurora by putting Natalia first when Aurora was supposed to be higher in rank.

I looked at the women for a second and Aurora gave Natalia a quick nod, dismissing the topic before Natalia shook her head.

“The pleasure was mine, but I have to admit that it wouldn’t have been possible without our pack’s Luna. She was kind enough to allow me to come, and if anyone should be thanked for that, then it should be her.” Natalia said, looking at Aurora. Her eyes widened in surprise, and I winked at her, silently thanking the woman who smiled. Her heart raced, and Elder Jordan smiled and nodded.

“You are indeed right, it is Aurora, as your pack’s Luna, that should be thanked. My apologies for the misconception.” The elder said, taking a step back. Aurora didn’t say a word to respond, and it took me a second to try and contain my smile before I wrapped an arm around the woman, not wanting things to go worse than they seemed to be going. I knew that had it been up to Natalia, things were going to end up being worse than they were.

The Lord Alpha nodded at Natalia, smirking as she looked at Ivan. The man leaned in and k*ssed her, letting his l*ps linger against hers before Aurora was surprised when I k*ssed her temple, letting my l*ps linger there for a few seconds before I pulled away to look her in the eye. Her heart raced, and she shook her head in question. I smiled and nodded at her before turning my attention to the Lord Alpha.

“It was nice of you to have us over…

“But you didn’t stay for dinner? He said, and I smiled.

“I think that Aurora should rest a bit. You know, she is still with child, and it has been a very long day on her. It would be best for her to get some rest after the long day walking.” I said, looking at Aurora. The Lord Alpha studied her expression for a second before he nodded, giving us permission to leave. Truth be told, I didn’t want things to grow more complicated that they already were, and I couldn’t help but find myself fearing how Aurora would be feeling toward Natalia after the way Elder Jordan acted and treated her. I didn’t defend her, and I wasn’t dumb, I knew that it wasn’t going to be something that she simply let go of.

At least, if she didn’t voice it out, she was going to be acting upon it.

“We will be seeing you soon. I believe that you would need to rest as you are in your third month and you are not allowed to be exceeding certain activities, but I will be sure to pay you a visit. And please, neither one you, hesitate if you need anything.” He said, and we all nodded with a smile. He nodded, guiding us to the door before we headed toward our cars as our drivers, who were already called by Ivan, were waiting for us.

I got inside after Aurora, and I couldn’t help but smile at the Lord Alpha who nodded in appreciation at me before closing the door. The driver started the car, and both Aurora and I were quiet until the gates opened and we were out of the Estate grounds.

“That went well,” I said, looking at her. “Do you want to tell me what it is that you spoke to with the Lord Alpha!”

Aurora looked at me for a second, her heart racing as she clenched her fists over her lap. I frowned in confusion as her once calm expression, turned to one that was more than just a little angry. If anything, the woman not only seemed to be displeased, but it was clear to me that she was angry.

“No,” She said. I shook my head in question, and she kept her eyes out the window for a second too long before looking at

1. me.

“No?” I asked, and she nodded.

“I am not going to tell you what it is that I spoke to the Lord Alpha.” She said, and I took a deep breath, waiting for an explanation as I didn’t want to do or say something that I knew would not only anger her, but also hurt her feelings. “You knew to stay quiet when the Elder disrespected my presence, and though Natalia stood up for me, I did hope that you would have at least showed some sort of affection.”

“Why would I?” I asked, and she frowned in confusion. I shook my head, waiting for a response, but Aurora didn’t say a word, clearly surprised by the way that I answered her. However, I knew how I was going to remind her of the limits that she was not only forgetting, but the limits that she thought that she could cross. “Don’t think that because I am willing to touch you, that you mean anything to me, Aurora. Not today, not tomorrow, and not in a thousand years. You are nothing to me, and the faster that you get that through your head, the better you are going to be feeling about yourself, do you f**king understand me?”
