Chapter 115
Dimitri:
I waited, knowing that Charlotte would be here in a bit.
As much as I wanted to deny it, it wasn’t an encounter that I wanted to deal with, but I knew. that it was one that had to be done. And thankfully, now that I had my mate by my side, I knew that things would be somewhat easier.
“I am surprised to find that you are here, Alpha Dimitri.” Elder Jordan said from behind me. “I would have expected you to be inside, you know, considering the fact that you are the best man of your beta.”
“Elder Jordan, how are you?” I asked, turning to face the woman. I had to admit, the last ting that I expected was to find her here. The woman wasn’t one to attend unofficial gatherings, and a human’s wedding was the last thing that I would have expected her to care about. Nevertheless, I knew not to complain.
“I am well, and you?” She asked, looking at the door as she stood by my side. I nodded at the entering guests, shaking the hands of a few, and the woman nodded. “I take it that are still playing the role of the Alpha even here.”

“Regardless of being the best man, I am still Pakhan and Alpha. The packs have to see me here and the guests, which are human as they are Natalia’s family, need me around as well.” I said, “as you may know, this is still my home.”
“And your mate? I am surprised to find that you are standing here alone. In normal cases, it is the Alpha and his Luna who greet the guests. You know, I can be wrong, but these are the customs that we know.” She said, raising an amused eyebrow at me. “What are you hiding,
Dimitri?”
“I am hiding nothing that may concern you. As for Aurora, here she is.” I said, nodding at my mate. “She is my pack’s Luna and this being a big wedding, she has things to tend to.”
“Elder Jordan, my love,” she said, nodding at the woman before turning to me. I wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her to my chest before kissing her temple. She smiled and nodded, letting me know that things went well between Ivan and Natalia. I was more than a

little concerned, but I knew that she would know how to handle the situation. Now, all I needed was to get rid of the elder as I caught Charlotte’s scent. “Is there anything that you may need help with, Elder Jordan? The guests are inside,”
“I was searching for the Alpha. You know, I haven’t seen the two of you and I grew curious, but it seems to me that you have things covered the way that you want them to be.” She said, looking at the two of us. I knew that she was triggering Aurora with a lot, but I also knew that my mate was well aware that she shouldn’t be allowing her to get in her head. The woman was something, I had to admit, and with the disappearance of the Lord Alpha, she seemed to grow stronger by the day. It was now as if she had nothing and no one to stop her.
Aurora was about to respond when the elder just turned and walked away. She took a deep breath and shook her head, forcing herself to chew the inside of her mouth as she knew that the woman was not only insulting her but was being very obvious about her lack of respect toward my mate.
“Don’t worry, malyshka, we are going to deal thing her later.” I said, knowing for fact that the woman could easily hear me if she wanted to. I wanted her to know that I wasn’t going to accept anyone insulting my woman. No matter how the two of us have started, the last thing that I would ever allow was for someone to be insulting my mate, the mother of my child, and the woman that I was spending my life with. And the elder was going to eventually learn that. One way or the other, I was going to be sure that it happened whether or not she liked it.
“For now, we are going to have to deal with this. You know, the woman is on her way, and I can already smell her scent within the territory ground.” Aurora said, and I smiled, knowing that she was forcing herself to do something that she didn’t want to do. I knew that it hurt. her to be in this, and I knew that she was sucking in a lot for my sake right now, and that was something that I was more than a little thankful for. If anything, I knew that I wouldn’t have been able to do it if I were to be in her shoes.
“We are going to get over this, together, malyshka.” I said, my eyes softening as I looked at her. I wrapped my arms around her waist, and leaned in, connecting my lips with hers. Our lips moved in sync, and I was forced to remind myself, despite her beauty, intoxicating scent, and addicting presence, that we had guests over, coming over too, and that the two of us were standing in front of the door.
“Well, this is a sight to see,” Luka said as I pulled away from my mate to catch a breath. “I

instead of in front of the front door.”
“Welcome over, Luka.” I said, nodding at the man. I extended my hand toward him, shaking his as I caught sight of Alaria, Ademide, and Charlotte walking behind him. It took everything in me not to curse under my breath as I found myself growing disappointed with the fact that they might have started whatever conversation that they were to have about betrothing the two wolves. However, I knew not to rush into assumptions without the proper facts.
He looked at Aurora before a curious smile formed on his lips. “Well, you are as beautiful as they say.”
He extended a hand toward her and Aurora went to shake his hand, but the man leaned in and kissed her knuckle before she pulled her hand away. “It is a pleasure to meet you, Luna.”
“How about we go inside?” Aurora asked, looking uncomfortable. Her eyes met mine and I could tell that she was uncomfortable.
“For the first time, yes, I would agree with you.” Charlotte said, looking at Luka for a second. “Let us go inside…”
