Chapter 109
Dimitri:
I watched as Aurora walked toward the door, knowing to wait for me in the hall by the door while I stood in front of Natalia. I was rarely one to interfere between the pack members, but this one, I knew not to ignore or allow to slide. Limits would crossed if I did, and those were not ones that I wanted being crossed or ignored.
Natalia’s eyes met mine, and I could see the woman’s fear in her eyes, and I could tell that this was not something that she wanted to deal with. But the state that I saw my woman in was not one that I was going to ignore. And whether or not her wedding was tomorrow did not matter to me. I wasn’t going to allow her or anyone to disrespect my woman.
“Yes, Dimitri?” She asked, stepping toward me. “Are you going to scold me for your woman who doesn’t know how to fend for herself? Or are you going to warn me against disrespecting her?”
“Who the fuck do you think you are?” I asked, and she raised an amused eyebrow.
“I believe that you know very well who I am.” She said, looking me dead in the eye. “But I am not going to bother, nor am I going to be bothered with what you just asked. However, if you are coming to warn me against disrespecting her, I am going to tell you that I came to apologize to her.”
“And you are going to expect me to have it slide because you apologized to her? You want me to let things go because…”
“Because you know for fact that every word that I told her is true.” She said, stopping me. “If the two of you are foolish enough to want to admit it, I am going to be one to force you into knowing that I am right.”
“You know, I am finding it amazing that you are showing your true colors the closer your get to this mating.” I said, and she scoffed.
“I am not the type who would mask herself to impress any of you. But if you are falling for her and are seeing a fly around her as a threat, then that is a whole new case.” She said, looking me dead in the eye. “As for what happened between Aurora and I; I came to

apologize to her, and I came to try and fix things. However, since she chose to put you in the middle of this, she can go to hell for all I f**king care. Don’t worry, I am not going to approach her.”
“Good,” I said, taking a step toward her. “And the next time you think that you can judge my decisions, regardless of what they are, especially when they include my family; I am going to be f**king sure that you regret it.”
I turned to walk to the door before the woman stopped me, “Dimitri…”
I turned and looked at the woman over my shoulder and she scoffed.
“The next time you try to threaten me, I am going to be sure that I feed you your words.” She said, and I let out a low warning growl. “I am not the woman that you mess with. And I think that you know, very well, that I am not going to accept being disrespected.”
Ivan walked down the stairs and frowned when he heard his mate. Even she froze, processing what just happened, and I shook my head as I took a deep breath. “Deal with your mate before I am forced to deal with her. Because believe me, I am not going to tolerate anymore of her bullshit.”
“I’ll deal with it, Alpha.” He said, and I nodded.
“Good,” I said, and he nodded. “I’ll be out with Aurora. The house is your responsibility…”
“Elder Jordan, how are you?” I asked, extending my hand for the elder to shake. She nodded and shook my hand before turning to Aurora. My mate extended her hand and shook the woman’s, both of them making eye contact for a second before she removed her hand.
“I am well, how are the two of you?” She asked, looking at me. I knew that she wasn’t referring to Aurora at that, but I knew that it was something that she wouldn’t admit. Though Aurora knew not to bother with how the elder treated her, I knew that it bothered her.
“Both my mate and I are well.” I said, and she nodded.
“Come in,” she said, inviting the two of us to her house. Aurora looked at me for a second,

and I nodded in assurance before putting a hand on her back, ushering her to go forward. The two of us walked toward the living room where she had her reception prepared. Two maids stood with glasses and two others stood beside the small buffet that she had prepared.
“You outdid yourself,” Aurora said, smiling at the woman. She nodded in appreciation, and just as we were about to sit, I caught her mother’s scent. Aurora tensed, knowing that when her mother, came trouble. And though she didn’t even argue with the woman for what she did to her and how she had treated her about the fact that she chose to tell her that her father is the elder on a special night, I knew that it still hurt her. Her eyes met mine for a second, and I saw her pain in them as Elder Jordan excused herself to open the door for
her.
I k*ssed my mate’s temple, letting my l*ps linger there for a few seconds before pulling away to look her in the eye. “Regardless of what is going to happen, you aren’t going to react, Aurora. We will just let the night slide and smoothly and calmly as possible, yeah?”
“You know that she is going to ask questions,” she said, and I nodded.
“And we are going to be smart with answering.” I said, looking her in the eye. “Our secrets are ours, and we don’t let them out of our home perimeter,”
She nodded, and I smiled in assurance just as the women walked inside the living room. Both Aurora and I got up and turned to the door, smiling at the woman whose eyes met mine before turning to Aurora.
“Dimitri, Aurora, it’s been a while since I’ve seen the two of you…”
