Chapter 42
Dimitri:
“For aman who is expecting his first child, you do not seem to be very excited about it.” Lord Alpha Sirius said, looking at me. |
smiled and shook my head in question, not understanding why he would be thinking that.This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.
“Not at all, if anything. | am more than thrilled about having my first born. Though | am curious about the reason of why you
would think that, Lord Alpha?” | asked, voicing out my confusion. Thest thing that | needed was for Aurora to be telling the
elders anything behind my back. And though | could tell that she wasn’t saying anything that | would be against, | couldn’t help
but find myself growing annoyed and curious about why they would be paying her this much attention when she was nothing but
an omega blood.
The woman was carrying MY child, and | was the higher rank, and yet, she was getting the attention that an Alpha should be
having,
“You do not seem to be interacting with your mate, nor do you seem to be by her side. She is carrying your baby and considering
that it is your first, | would have been expecting more of a closer rtionship between the two of you.” He said, looking me in the
eye and | smiled.
“The two of us are doing very well together. It is just the small fact that we sometimes find it harder to get used to the fact that we
are mates. You know, we were not fated and things are just moving a little too fast for me toprehend, and as a woman,
Aurora seems to be happy that an instinct is being fulfilled. That is all that there is to it,” | said, and he nodded in understanding.
The two of us were walking in the garden, considering that he wanted to speak to me in private, and | knew that telling him no or
implying that | didn’t want to speak to him was going to be something that not only would he take as rude, but | would be
questioned for, and that wasn’t something that | wanted to deal with.
“You know, when we chose the two of you to be together, it was to unify both packs. | think that you are well aware that she is
not...
m aware, and it is a topic that she does not like speaking of. | would rather not talk about it being her back.” | said, stopping
the man. | had to admit, | knew that it was risky to do so, but | also knew that he would take it as me valuing her privacy. As for
the main reason why | did it, | had to admit, the story that she told me the other day was one that yed in my head, and the fact
that | knew that she never understood why she was abandoned the way that she was tore something in me. | didn’t know what it
was nor did | understand, but | knew that | did not like it. It was one thing to know that she was an omega, an orphan, but it was
another thing to know that she held onto the idea of maybe, at least, that she would know what the reason behind her being
abandoned was.
And considering her confusion and the way that she spoke, | knew that she might have not been allowed to speak of this topic
with her parents either. Therefore, she was stuck with whatever she had in her mind to think of. That was the main reason why |
was going to help her at least find out who they were. Maybe it would ease her pain to either know that they were dead or to see
and try to speak to them.
“| heard the story from her, and | know that it hurts her to speak of this topic. | am sorry for stopping you the way that | did, Lord
Alpha’ | said, trying to ensure that | didn’t press on too many buttons. The man nodded in understanding.
*There is nothing better than a man who would value his lover’s secrets and pride.” He said, and | took in a sharp breath.
“She told me that it hurts her, and she told me that she wants to find out about them. She aims to know whether they were dead
or alive, and that is why | do not wish to stab her with something that | know has affected her as much as it did.” | could swear
that the man took in a harsh breath, and | couldn''t help the frown that formed on my I*ps at that. His eyes met mine and he shook
his head in question, taking me off guard.
“What did you just say?” He asked, making me frown in confusion.
“Sorry?” | asked, shaking my head and his eyes hardened.
“Lasked, what did you just **cking say about her wanting to find her parents.” He said, turning to face me. | frowned in confusion
and shook my head in question.
“She has the right to know where she came from, and | offered to help considering that she wanted it. As her mate, | do not see
where that is wrong.” | said, and the man clenched and unclenched his fist, taking me off guard before he grabbed me by my
shirt’s cor. | frowned in confusion and his eyes turned into a dark shade of golden, making my heart race.
| knew that ONE wrong move from me would be fatal, and not only for me, but my whole pack. And for that, | was forced to
submit as | waited for whatever he was going to say. However, | had to admit, | couldn’t help but find myself wondering why he
was as angry as he was, | knew not to question him right now.
“You are going to listen to what | have to say and | am not going to repeat myself twice.” He said, making me frown as the door
opened. Aurora and Elder Jordan walked out, looking at the two of us, and | couldn’t help but notice the elder looking at Aurora
for a second, making sure that she might be listening before his next words took me off guard. Especially when | saw literally no
reason behind them when we were dealing with a rogue and his Luna. “You two are going to drop this search immediately and
thest thing that we expect to hear is for anyone to hear of this mess, do you understand?”
“My search is going to be discrete...“
“You are going to drop it, otherwise, both you and your mate are going to pay the prices of it.” He said, making me frown. “Am |
making myself clear, Alpha Dimitri? And | trust that you are going to be the person to speak to your mate about it Unless, if
course, you aim for me to speak to her. If that is the case, then | am going to be more than willing to do so, but | make no
promises on what | am going to tell her. Therefore, the choice is yours, do you understand me, Alpha Dimitri?”
