Alpha Dimitri By LS Barbosa

Chapter 114

Chapter 114 Aurora:

“Do you need help?” | asked, looking at Natalia through her dressing room door. She was quiet as she got ready, and though | knew that she was wrong with what she did, the last thing that | would wish for a person that | considered a friend that she would be enduring what | have.

“| don’t need anything, thank you.” She said, and | nodded. | looked at the maids and hairdresser, nodding at them to leave. And they took a step back, not saying a word as they walked out before closing the door. “Aiming to ruin my look too?”

“Why did you choose to back away from the wedding? Don’t get me wrong, but you were more excited...”

“| didn’t,” she said, looking away from me. “It’s lvan who distanced himself from me. When he saw that the two of us were getting in more conflict and when he saw that he was losing Dimitri’s

‘s friendship, he started distancing himself from me. He wouldn’t speak to me for days and the closer we got to the wedding, it was like he was choosing to not want me.”

“Don’t you think that he could be just as nervous as you might be?” | asked, taking a seat on the couch that was inside her room. She looked at me, she was already wearing her dress, as was |. We just needed a few things before we started admitting guests and her family were already starting to arrive. “The days have been hard on us, and | know that they are going to be harder. | don’t know where we are going, but | know that what we’re doing is wrong.

“Everything in our lives is wrong anyway. What makes this any different?” She asked, taking a deep breath as she tried to calm herself down. “Anyway...”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“| don’t want to be upset on a special day like this one,” | said, stopping her.

“What use does what the two of us want at this point? It is already obvious that things are turning to a different side that | never calculated for. Your Alpha has deemed an enemy, you see me as nothing more than your beta’s wife, and that beta doesn’t even want me. | can’t blame him either. | don’t know the kind of pressure that he’s under and | have a lot to deal with when it concerns my family and what they expect out of me.” She said, and | smiled. | knew how she felt at this point. It was a duty more than anything, but the love that one had for this duty was one that we couldn't get past or over. It was who we were and how

we were brought up. Sometimes, all we had to do was fight to accept it. [e)

“It makes all the difference. The two of us know that we are going to manage to change things, and the love that you and Ivan have for one another is not going to be dying because of a simple argument.” | said, looking at the woman. “The two of you have had. your setback, | agree on that. But that doesn’t mean that Ivan doesn’t love you. The man would rather die than see a tear falling from your eye and you know that.”

It

doesn't feel like it lately though,” she said, showing her true weakness. “I knew that he loved me, | felt and saw it. But as we got closer, it just got harder to believe it. Maybe it was just my imagination all along, or maybe...”

“Maybe the two of us got too under pressure for a long while.” He said, stopping her from finishing what she was going to say. Natalia froze, her eyes widening in surprise before she got up from her chair to look at her mate who held a flower bouquet for her. She looked at me, and | smiled.

“It is bad luck for you to see me in my wedding dress before the wedding,” Natalia said, tearing up. The man smiled and walked toward her before looking at me. He winked before turning to look at his woman, cupping her cheeks as he gently massaged her jawline.

“Well, considering that the wedding is only for your family to attend and that you are going to be my mate forever and always; | doubt that it makes much of a difference, does it?” He asked, making Natalia giggle. She looked at me for a second and | smiled, walking toward the door as | did.

“You had something to do with this, didn’t you?” Natalia asked, and | looked at Ivan.

Flashback:

“Do not play this game, Ivan.” | said, looking the man dead in the eye as he frowned in confusion. “What game, Aurora? The woman proved...”

“She loves you.” | said, stopping him. “And | know for fucking fact that you love her.”

“She got in between my Alpha and |, not to mention crossed her limit with you as the pack’s Luna. You know for fact that this alone can be enough to get the two of us killed, no

questions asked...”

“| didn’t ask you to be my lawyer. What happened, Dimitri and | dealt with. You don’t need to be fighting something that isn’t yours to be doing. But what you need to is be by your mate’s side. | doubt that you are going to accept her walking down that aisle, fearing that you are only doing this because Dimitri told you to.” | said, stopping the man. Having encountered him as he was walking outside while | was tending to the catering; | knew that | had to interfere to fix things before we were thrown off a cliff that we couldn't deal with.

And the idea of having to deal with Charlotte was bad enough for me. With Ademide being here, | knew that Alaria would be coming too. That was something that | didn’t want to cause a setback in, and that meant that | was going to have to deal with them while Dimitri spoke to Charlotte before they managed to set her with Luka.

“Do not be the second version of Dimitri and |.” | said, looking the man dead in the eye. “The two of are mates, lovers, friends, and significant others. Dimitri and | were set up and though | know that if | were to be asked, | wouldn’t change being with him for the world, but | know that | would be changing how the two of us started.”

“Don't take your most beautiful days and turn them into a nightmare that you are not going to forget.” | said, my voice softening as | looked the man in the eye. “She is in her dressing room, getting ready to go out. My recommendation to you is to go and talk to her.”

“Why?” He asked, shaking his head at me. “After everything, why did you choose to not want us to hate one another? Don't get me wrong, but | wasn’t the best when it came to you. and with what Natalia...?”

“What happened between Natalia and | was something that YOU shouldn't have gotten in the middle of. While it was wrong of me to include even Dimitri, but it is something that included him and our relationship as well, it was one of the reasons why | allowed him to be the one to put a limit.” | said, knowing that Dimitri was listening. “As for you, you and | did not get alone and it is for known reasons. You sided with your Alpha and | doubt that you would have chosen me over you friend. | would be in shock if that happened.”

“Now, | am going to go and talk to her.” | said, looking at the man as | crossed my arms over my chest. “Stir my words in your brain before going out. You know, you still have very long night and life ahead of you. And | doubt that you are going to want to start it on a rocky edge...”

End of Flashback.

“lam this pack’s Luna for a reason,” | said, smiling at her. “We'll be waiting for you outside. You know, your guests should be arriving soon...”
