The story of Alpha

Chapter 58

Dimitri:

“You two seem to be getting along better than you were before.” The Lord Alpha pointed out. I looked at Aurora who was walking with Natalia, and I couldn’t help but smirk as the picture of her being under me, on top of me, or in front of me filled my vision.

Though the two of us had no feelings toward one another. I knew that this was a big part and move for the two of us, and the fact that she was willingly doing it, satisfying me and herself, well, that made it all the more pleasurable.

“I believe that we started getting used to one another’s presence.” I said, and he nodded. He looked at Ivan, who I knew was still nervous about the fact of bringing his mate here. I didn’t know what he had on his mind, but as his friend, I could tell that he had a lot that he was thinking about.

“And I believe that you and your fated mate are doing well together?” He asked, and Ivan smiled and nodded. I had to admit, both he and Natalia not only got along, but the woman drove him insane, in a good way, and it was something that he liked. To say the least, human or not, she had the fire that he was looking for in a woman, and that was something that I knew attracted him to her.

“Thankfully, the two of us chose to accept one another despite being fated, it didn’t only lay of fate. It was more of a connection, and that is something that I am thankful for.” He said, and Lord Alpha Sirius smiled.”

“And what about your baby?” He asked, turning his attention to me. “You are to be having an heir, surely you have started your checkups with your Luna, preparations?”

I had to admit, the fact that he asked took me off guard especially when I knew that he was neither her mother, who would normally be the one asking, nor was he related to any of us. Allies or not, chosen mate for one another or not, I doubted that he would be concerned about whether or not I had my first heir.

“The baby is well, and so is Aurora.” I said, choosing to try dismissing the topic. The picture of her laying on a pool of her blood a month ago played in my head for a second, and though I was sure to control my expression, I couldn’t help but find myself wondering what would have happened if I didn’t find her that night. Not only would we have lost the child, but she could have lost her life, and that was something that I wouldn’t know how to explain to neither her or my parents or the elders.

The door was knocked, and the Lord Alpha nodded at one of the maids to open the door while I looked at Ivan. The two of us shared a glance, and I shook my head, not understanding the reason behind most of what was going on with the Alpha’s questions, but I knew that I didn’t like it. Whatever it was, something was hidden behind it, and that was something that I didn’t find myself appreciating. Plus, there was still the fact that I didn’t know who Aurora’s parents‘ were, but I still remembered the pack doctor’s words when she told me that her blood was strong, and the Lord Alpha’s reaction when I wanted to ask about where she came from.

The anger

in his eyes was not one that I understood, but I could tell that it wasn’t one that didn’t have a reason.

Elder Jordan entered the living room, and the Lord Alpha’s eyes hardened for a second, making her raise an eyebrow.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Is this how you are going to be behaving in front of your guests, Lord Alpha?” Elder Jordan asked, glaring at the Lord Alpha. I looked at Ivan, who shook his head, clearly confused about the clear annoyance that was between both elders, especially since normally, they would have been grounded by certain rules and ethics toward one another. And considering the fact that Alpha Sirius was supposed to be her superior, all kinds of disagreements should, normally, not exist, and even if they were, they were to be treated in private.

“I believe that they are my guests, and I did not call for you to come.” He said, making the me and my beta frown in confusion. I went to get up, knowing that it was going to be best not to interfere, when the Lord Alpha shook his head. “I am not one to kick someone out of my house when they come to me, but I do believe that you were to call in advance. It is only ethical for you to do so. As for you, Alpha Dimitri, I do not think that I asked you to leave.”

“I am aware, but we were going to ch*ck on our mates. Considering the fact that they have been outside for a while now, I think that it is only fair for us as their mates to ch*ck up on them and ensure that they are safe and well.” I said, trying my best to find a lie that would cover up for the reason that we were choosing to give them their privacy to converse.

Alpha studied my expression for a second before he nodded, allowing both Ivan and I to walk out of the living room, heading toward the front door.

Two maids opened the doors for us, and I nodded in thanks before both Ivan and I walked out. Ivan shook his head in question, and I shrugged, knowing that it was best not to talk about anything here. I wasn’t dumb, I knew that the Lord Alpha and Elder Jordan would easily hear us even if they were talking, and the less the risk, the better the outcome.

“Is everything alright?” Natalia asked, shaking her head in question when she saw the two of us approaching. She put her hand on Ivan’s cheek for a second, studying his expression, and he smiled, taking her hand in his before k*ssing his palm. Aurora, who stood a step back, shook her head in question, and I winked in at her.

“We both came to ch*ck up on you.” I said, and both women raised an eyebrow before Aurora looked at the window of the house. Both elders seemed to be arguing and Aurora nodded in understanding.

“Well, it is a good thing that you came.” Aurora said, smiling at me. “You know, it has been a long while since the two of us have been walking out here alone, wouldn’t you agree, Natalia?”
