Chapter 45


    Aurora:


    “You''ve been in your room for the past two days,” Ivan stated, and | took a deep breath.


    “Do you not have a mate to keep you busy?” | asked, shaking my head in question. “Do not get me wrong, but you seem to be


    far too busy stalking me instead of being busy with the woman that you are supposed to be with.”


    “My mate does not concern you, and if | am stalking you, it is to ensure that my Alpha’s child is safe.” He said, and | shook my


    head, pinching the bridge of my nose. It has been a month since thest meeting with the elders and since Charlotte was kicked


    out of the pack, and though | knew better than to think that anything would be changing between the Alpha and 1, | could tell that


    he was being a lot more distant as time went. The conversation with my parents ended up turning things against me more than |


    would have hoped that it would, and | knew that it was something that annoyed even the beta.


    “My baby is safe, Alpha or not, | am not going to end up harming my child because Tam upset or annoyed. But if it helps you feel


    any better, | am not tired, | am just choosing to rest as | have been waking up with an odd morning sickness and haven’t been


    getting the sleep that | would want to normally get in such situations.” | said, and he raised an eyebrow. “You needn''t worry, it is a


    full moon tonight and being pregnant prevents me from shifting, but that doesn’t mean that | don’t feel the changes that ur.”


    “I see,” he said, and | smiled.


    “If there isn’t anything that you would like to add, you can leave.” | said, nodding at the door/keeping a small sarcastic smile on


    my face as | did. His eyes met mine and he went to take a step back only to shock me when he stopped. | frowned in confusion


    and he sighed.


    “How do you feel being an omega within the pack?” He asked, taking me off guard with his question. His eyes met mine and |


    shook my head, taking a deep breath as | tried processing what he was asking “My mate is human, and | don’t know how things


    are going to work.”


    “Do you like her?” | asked, and he looked down at his feet, making me smile.


    “A lot,” he said, and | nodded.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.


    “It would work. If you want it to, then it would be working. Yes, | understand that you might be worried, but you know that it would


    work if you want your rtionship to. As for how | feel being an omega within the pack, then | am going to tell you that | feel no


    different than being the Alpha’s daughter, adopted or not, when | was back at home.” | said, voicing out how | was feeling. The


    fact that they kept hitting me with the fact that | was an orphan was something that | wasn’t going to forget, but | knew that | grew


    up being who | was, bloodline or not, | knew who | was and who | wanted to be.


    “Even despite you not having noble blood?” He asked, and | took a deep breath. “Don’t get me wrong, but you know that your


    rank is the lowest of them all. You don’t have anything that would consider you as fit to be an Alpha’s mate except maybe the


    way that you were raised.”


    “| believe that you know that Dimitri needs someone like me in his life. | may not be the pure blood that he would have wanted,


    and maybe | never will be. But, | am the person that he needs, be it etiquette, the way that | deal with things and how I manage


    the house; | think that you are not blind not to see that things have changed to the better within the house when ites to the


    fact that elders are present.” | said, and he smiled. “Don’t judge her because she is human. If you like her, then go on ahead and


    give her a chance. But losing her simply because she is not a wolf would only make you regret itter, and that is something that


    you are going to have to keep in mind.”


    “What if she doesn’t ept being within the pack? You know that | am not going to be able to leave my position by Dimitri’s side,


    and...”


    “That would depend on how the two of you agree to do things and how you choose to want to manage your rtionship. But that


    doesn’t mean, not for a second, that you have to put assumptions before making the first move, and | can tell by your question


    that the first move wasn’t done yet.” | said, and he sighed, making me smile. | walked toward him and put a hand on his shoulder,


    squeezing it gently. “Just go with it, you know that you are going to be able to get things right when you follow your gut. But


    running away like this, clearly fearing something that is not even there, then you are not going to be able to get anywhere. And


    trust me, you are not going to want to live with a ‘what if?’ if you don’t try.”


    “Thank you, Aurora.” He said, and | smiled and nodded.


    “You''re most wee, Ivan.” | said, taking a step back. He looked down at me for a second, and | couldn’t help but notice him


    studying my expression. His next words making a small smile appear on my face despite all the shit that the two of us normally


    went through.


    “You know, | do think that you might be good for the pack, and not just Dimitri.” He said, turning toward the door. “You just don’t


    seem to know it yet. Maybe none of us does...”
