Alpha Dimitri By LS Barbosa

Chapter 61
Dimitri:
“You and Natalia seem to be getting along quite well.” I said, raising an eyebrow
at Aurora as the two of us walked through the Lord Alpha’s garden.
Both he and elder Jordan were busy with whatever it was that they seemed to be
annoyed with, and though I couldn't help but feel curious, I knew better than to
show it.
“When you are in a room alone for nearly a month, and when a lover is in your
mate's bed the month before, I do believe that having a friend can be beneficial,
do you not agree?” She asked, and I took a deep breath. I had to admit, I didn’t
expect that to be her answer, and though I couldn't blame her for showing that
she was clearly annoyed with something, I wasn't used to such behavior. She
took a deep breath, noticing that I didn’t respond before taking my hand in hers,
taking me by surprise. “She is nice, at least to me. And it is nice to have a friend
even if the two of us just met, but I know that even she might feel out of place in
the situation that she is in.”
“Why would she be feeling out of place when she was chosen by her mate?” I
said, and she shook her head in response. I had to admit, I knew that it was true,
and even Ivan admitted that she was having a bit of a hard time coping to how
things are with us. The factor of shifting last month and her seeing it when she
was here for less than a week at the time didn’t help either. Thankfully, lvan’s wolf
knew how to make his approach to his mate in a way that had her relaxing to
some extent.
“Consider the factor of her being human being an effect, and though she didn’t
say a word about it, just so that you don’t think that she complained, one can tell
that she is doing her best to try and understand how things are working with us.
Hell, even I find myself struggling to find a right way with you at times, I couldn't
imagine how she might be feeling.” I chuckled at Aurora’s words, and she shook
her head as a small smile played on her I*ps. The fact that I was softening toward
her was something that I knew she saw and understood. The woman wasn't
dumb, nor was she blind, but I no longer had a reason to resent her as much
considering that Charlotte wasn't around, and the idea of her not being here was
something that I didn’t like. Aurora was my distraction to it, but I didn’t know
whether or not she understood that part.
“She would be getting used to it by time.” I said, shrugging as I pulled my hand
from hers. I crossed my arms over my chest, her touch becoming too intimate for
me to accept, and the fact that this was an act between us, at least, us
pretending to be lovers was, and I didn’t want her to forget that. It was something
that we had to have the Lord Alpha and elders believe, but I didn’t want her
getting the wrong message about it either. “She comes from a very strong family,
pure blood despite her being human, and no matter how she might not be used
to the way that we were, she knows who she is and what she is capable of
doing.”
Aurora tensed, understanding the underline meaning of my words. And though I
wasn't intentionally referring to her, I didn't like the fact that I was oblivious to
where the woman came from. She didn’t say a word though, I expected her to,
but she nodded and took a deep breath just as the door of the house opened,
revealing both Lord Alpha Sirius and Elder Jordan who walked out by one
another's side as if nothing had been happening between them earlier. The smile
that was on both their faces was alarming, especially since we didn’t know and
couldn't tell whether it was a real smile or the two of them were faking it.
“We apologize for keeping outside for such a long time.” Lord Alpha Sirius was
the first to speak when they reached us. Elder Jordan looked at the two of us
before smiling when she saw Aurora’s baby bump. The woman didn’t even know
how hard it was to maintain and ensure that we didn’t lose our baby, but I was
more than a little thankful for the fact that things were going well between the two
of us that she was relaxed and was no longer at risk of losing the baby. At least,
that was what the doctor was telling me after her weekly visits...
“Aurora, your stomach is already starting to show.” She said. Aurora smiled and
nodded before putting her hand on her
stomach.
“It grows a little with every passing day. And considering that this is its size on the
third month, I do believe that I am going to be the size of an elephant by the time
I reach the ninth month.” Aurora said, looking at me. “Thankfully, I have Alpha
Dimitri to remind that I would still look beautiful even if I do gain that much
weight.”
Elder Jordan laughed, and I smiled, wrapping my arm around Aurora, watching
as her eyes softened before she turned her attention to the elders. “How have
you been, Elder Jordan? I trust that you have been well?”
“I have been well, child.” She said, nodding at Natalia. “I see that you brought
over a human?”
“Beta lvan's mate,” I answered, and the woman nodded.
“A strong blood.” She said, and I nodded. “Her father is a Pakhan?”
“Del Gardi,” I said, shaking my head. “Capo dei Capi, a strong alley too.”
“Are they aware of who we are?” She asked, and I nodded.
“She saw us shift, her father already knew of who I was long before we started
working together. Our families go way back, and we have been allies for years
before a small fallout that I fixed.” I said, and she nodded in understanding.
“I am guessing that the mating would be bringing the families closer?” Lord Alpha
Sirius asked, and I nodded.
“Marriage in the human culture, but yes, it would strengthen the bond as two
families would unite. And considering that she is her father’s only heir, it is best
that she finds a strong husband to ensure their place in the family line.” I said,
and they both nodded as both Natalia and Ivan approached. “Natalia, Elder
Jordan.”

A pleasure to meet you,” Natalia

“Strong posture, and you do not fear the fact that I am a wolf.” She said, and
Natalia smiled.
“You wouldn't know even if I did.” She said, and the elder smiled. “Part of being
who I am.”
Elder Jordan nodded in satisfaction before turning her attention to Ivan.
