Chapter 21
~Tia~
I have to say, I never thought of the twins as being domesticated, yet here they are, cooking me a meal. I could truly get used to this. There is something about watching men cooking or cleaning that is a real turn-on. I love watching their muscles as they move and how they glide through the kitchen.
I hear a small gasp behind me, but I hesitate to turn around. This pack has not been overly friendly to me in my lifetime, and I really don't want to see what's behind me. The twin’s backs are facing me, but before they can turn around, a body wraps around Lincoln. “Hi babe! I missed you so much!” Aida turns to look at me while stroking Lincoln's front up and down. Andricia starts to growl in my head, and I can feel the anger start to build up. I try to keep my face emotion free because I won't give them the satisfaction.
"You should come with me.” Alpha Paul turns and heads down the hall. I assume I'm supposed to follow him, so I do, but at a slower pace. He opens the door to his left and walks inside. I slowly walk to the door and take a peek inside. This must be his office. There is a wall of huge windows across from me. A large oak desk is sitting against an adjacent wall. Across from that wall are a big screen on the wall and a bookcase filled with books and pictures.
Alpha Paul sits at the big desk and looks at me as if to convey that he’s waiting. I hurry into the room and sit across from Alpha Paul. I keep my head down and advert my eyes to any and everything. He clears his throat, forcing me to look at him. “I won't pretend that I know how it has been here for you. I always tried to look our for you the best I could because you just weren't treated fairly. That's when you were younger, though. Now, you are an adult,” He shifts in his seat. "What happened downstairs is nothing compared to wha't going to come. I know you are used to avoiding because that made things easier to deal with. These days you are going to have to do more. You have to be vocal and stand up for yourself. That is the only way to get trough this.” I can feel the tears gathering in my eyes. “I know you can be strong as well as giving. I don't want you to go through more than you need to. You are the Luna to be that gives you a powerful position of authority, so use it.” All I can do is nod in response since I don't trust my voice. “I will help you as much as I can, but you will need to establish your dominance yourself, even against my mate.” Alpha Paul winks at me. I guess he's right. I need to be bolder and more assertive, or I will be leaving rooms every chance I get. I need to establish who I am and what my role is in this pack. Alpha Paul gets up, and I move with him. He walks from behind his desk to where I'm standing. He puts his hand on my shoulder and looks me in the eye. “I'm interested to see what type of Luna you will be. I will leave now, feel free to stay in here as long as you like.” Alpha Paul squeezes my shoulder and strolls out of the room, leaving me to my thoughts.
