Chapter 120
Dimitri
We walked to the back garden, my heart racing against my chest as I found myself concerned of the outcome of the fate that we would be living through. And though I knew that Charlotte knew the house like the back of her hand, I found myself growing more confused at the fact that she not only chose to stand back, but that she didn’t even give a signal.
“Dimitri, is it a good idea for…?”
“I have no other option,” I said, stopping my beta as I knew that Aurora would be catching onto what he was saying. The last thing that I wanted was for him to be here, and knowing that she could see the pain that I was trying my best to hide in my gaze was not something that I liked. I wasn’t even going to admit it to her, but the pang that I felt in my chest was one that I couldn’t describe, and I didn’t know whether it was because I was failing
something or because of Charlotte. The idea of erosing three of our children because of
mother was not something that I was able to swallow just yet. Her getting married to the enemy was not something that I would want for her. Not after what I heard from her.
“Please let me go, Luka.” I heard Charlotte say. The fear that I licard in her tone was not one that I liked, and I could see the man’s hand wrapped around her wrist as he tried forcing a ring in her finger, wanting her as his whether or not she liked it.
“I thought that you were to prove…”
“By marrying the monster? Elder Jordan, surely you have another option to this.” Charlotte said, and Aurora sucked in a harsh breath that I could tell she struggled to contain herself from doing. Her eyes met mine and I saw fear in my woman’s eyes, though it wasn’t one for our relationship; it was one for the woman who stood in front of a fire that was in front of her with a gun pointed at her from the back and a knife by her side from Luka.
“I have always suspected that you and Dimitri were together. But then again, I never did have proof to it, but I could tell that the woman that he is with is far too weak to be a pack’s Luna. She has done nothing but organize events and since seeing her, this is the first time. that I saw her taking a stand as Luna. I did wonder why he ever held onto her, but it seems clear to me now that he had someone else to enjoy…”

“I do believe that you were. For known reasons, and I do not blame neither you, nor do I blame him. But I cannot have the council of elders being questioned and with the Lord Alpha being ‘out of the country, it is going to be a little harder for us to wait.” She said, looking at Charlotte as we hid in the distance. The one thing that they didn’t understand about these back gardens was that they were secret gardens. They didn’t know that we weren’t to hear from inside, but when inside, they couldn’t hear us. And the deeper they went, the more they were masked and hidden. “Anyhow, let us get this over with before heading back to the wedding. The last thing that you are going to want is to be caught missing, and you know, if your lover does come, he is going to prove that what the woman said was true. That would mean his and your death. I am not sure that I can hold the ‘Luna‘ accountable for any mistake, but I am sure that I can find one to get rid of her too.”
“Why? Why is it so important to you that…?”
“Because I do not like the gaze that we were to get if this isn’t to happen. And IF Aurora thinks that she can play Luna, then I am going to be sure to break that role even before she’s managed to live through it. All I need to do is start by educating her enough to do so, and you know, there is no better way to do so than to prove her wrong, is there?” Elder Jordan asked, looking at Charlotte.
I knew that Aurora’s eyes were fixed on me as I kept my gaze on the elder and Charlotte. My heart raced and the anger that I felt was not one that I could longer contain as I not only heard the woman’s words, but found myself raging at the insults that she was throwing at my mate. The idea of her not liking Aurora was something that I knew, but the fact that she was more than willing to threaten to kill or get rid of her for something that she didn’t do, now that was not something that I would accept nor take lightly.
“You are roaming around my territory, making decisions, and without me knowing?” I asked the elder, looking her dead in the eye. “And not only that, but you dare threaten to kill me and my mate over a rumor that you
think you heard?”
“How long have you been here?” The elder asked, clearly surprised of what I just said and of our presence in the first place. Her eyes met Aurora’s and I saw the fear in the woman’s gaze again as she saw the anger in my mate’s.
“I do not answer to questions from anyone who crosses their limits, regardless of being an elder, these are not your grounds, and you know that you cannot elope anyone here without my permission. The mating ceremony is not considered legal nor is it a true one

unless I permit it, and if he lays a finger on her then he is to die on sight.” I said, and Luka chuckled. He pulled a gun out of his holster, which was hidden under his suit jacket.
“Based on whose rules are we referring to? As far as I know, it is a wedding that we are holding and I chose to want to mate with own woman.” He said, looking at Charlotte as she flinched, noticing his mad, dark eyes. “Unless, of course, you are willing to give her to me.”
His eyes met Aurora’s and she let out a low growl, one which the madman laughed at. “She is feisty, I would like to enjoy breaking it out of her.”
“How about I kill you and show the world what it is to find yourself looking at my woman?” I asked, glaring at the man. He chuckled and I could see Ivan pulling his gun out of his own holster, loading and pointing it at the man.
“While this would be an honor for me to actually think of accepting your challenge. I think that I have more important things to tend to, and the last thing that I am going to want to deal with is an Alpha like yourself.” He said, looking at Ivan for a second. “It is only a shame that the groom would have to pay the price of it.”
He pressed his trigger before we could process what was going on. Two shots rang, and I looked at Ivan who moved aside, dodging the bullet before Luka’s body dropped as a bullet pierced the man’s head. Charlotte screamed, Aurora’s eyes widened as she sucked in a harsh breath, but it was Ivan’s cry of pain and the scent of a human’s blood that made my heart drop to my stomach as I turned to see her white dress covered blood as she looked at her
mate.
“Natalia ?”
