CAMILLE’S POV :
But I couldn’t let her know, there’s no point, so I shooked my head.
“Is everything okay, dear? I know you have been smiling sincerely since I came here but the smile didn’t reach your eyes and speaking of your eyes, it looks like you have been crying” she asked, concern etched on her face. “Talk to me”.
I shrugged and looked away, not saying anything, I knew she meant well, but this my thoughts and fear wasn’t meant to be shared. I had to come up with something so I told her I just missed my family and all, I’m glad she bought the story and didn’t push on further.
She sighed as she watched me eat the food finish and placed a hand on my shoulder. “I’m here for you, no matter what. You can talk to me about anything.”
I nodded, turned and hugged her. I don’t want her to worry herself too much over me, she has already done enough for me and she’s still doing more. I thanked her for the food and offered to take the empty tray of food to the Kitchen but she declined telling me she would do it and I should get some rest.
So followed her to the door, locking it after she left and going to bed to try and get some sleep.
ALPHA AIDEN’S POV :
I woke up early in the morning, just as the sun was beginning to peek over the horizon. I stretched and yawned, feeling the muscles in my body loosen as I swung my legs out of bed. After taking a moment to collect myself, I headed to the bathroom to freshen up.
Once I was clean and dressed, I made my way to my office. It was a spacious room, with large windows that allowed natural light to pour in and a mahogany desk that was neatly organized with all of his necessary documents and supplies.
I sat down at my desk and began to work on some paperwork. I was deep in concentration, my pen moving quickly across the page as I signed and filed various documents.
Just as I was finishing up, there was a knock at the door. I looked up, a little surprised. It was unusual for anyone to disturb me while I was working.
“Come in,” I called out.
The door opened, and a member of the pack stepped into the room. I recognized him as one of the younger wolves, a member of the pack who had recently come of age and turned 18.
“Alpha,” the young wolf said, bowing his head respectfully. “I apologize for interrupting your work, but I was hoping to speak with you.”
“Of course,” I said, setting down my pen. “What can I do for you?”
“I was hoping to discuss a matter of importance with you,” the young wolf said. “It concerns umm my mate.
“Go on,” I said, leaning back in my chair and crossing my arms.
The young wolf hesitated for a moment, he looked nervous. But then he took a deep breath and began to speak. “Alpha, I have met my mate,” he said finally. “She is a human, and I wanted to seek your guidance on what to do.”
I raised an eyebrow, clearly surprised by his revelation. “A human mate, you say? That is certainly unusual. But I understand that the bond of a mate is strong, and it cannot be denied. Does she know what you are, and is she willing to keep it a secret and join our pack?”
He nodded. “Yes, Alpha. She knows what I am, and she has agreed to keep it a secret and join our pack. She is willing to accept our ways and live among us.”
I considered his words for a moment, then nodded. “Very well. If your mate is willing to accept our ways and keep our secret, then I see no reason why she cannot join us. However, you must be prepared for the challenges that may come with having a human mate. The outside world may not understand or accept your relationship, and you may face discrimination and persecution because of it.”
“I understand, Alpha,” he said, as i sensed a feeling of determination wash over him. “I will do whatever it takes to be with my mate and to make our relationship work.”
“Then I will support you in your decision,” I said.”But be warned, there may be those among the pack who do not agree with your choice. You must be prepared to defend your mate and your relationship, and to stand up for what you believe in.”
“I understand, Alpha,” He said with a smile on his face. “I will do everything in my power to ensure that my mate is accepted and protected within our pack.”
“Then go with my blessing,” I said, giving him a nod of approval. “I have faith in you. You have always been a loyal and dedicated member of this pack, and I have no doubt that you will do what is best for both your mate and for our pack”.
“Thank you very much Alpha” he bowed and smiled widely as he left the office and I going back to work.
After sometime, I checked in with my Beta and told him to go check on the Luna as I was occupied.
“Alpha” he called out into the link.
“Yes any change?” I asked him, as I continued finalizing some papers.
“The Luna is awake and doing well, she will be coming back soon” he said as I thanked him and the link was shut.
“We need to talk” oh finally someone showed up. I’ve been waiting for him to blast my ears all along, I don’t even need him too anymore.
I could feel my wolf pacing back and forth, furious at the way I had treated our mate, he hasn’t said anything yet but I’m sure that’s what he wants to talk about and I however, have no remorse for my actions.
