Chapter 118
Charlotte:
I watched, with a heavy heart as Dimitri walked inside the house.
His eyes met Aurora’s and the man nodded at her. The two of them clearly sharing at message before she looked at me.
“How about you come and see my daughter? I think that it’s been a while since that’s happened.” She said, and though I couldn’t understand what was going on. I chose nod as I smiled. Ademide frowned in confusion, and though the wedding was going as smoothly as it was supposed to, I could tell that the woman seemed to think that something was going
on
“Where are the two of you off to?” Ademide asked, approaching me.
“Uh–uh, I doubt that I, the pack Luna, am going to explain to you, a human, where I am going to go, with one of my guest if I should add, in my home?” Aurora asked, mocking her. Ademide took a deep breath, taking her place as she took a step back. “Good, now leave my sight as I did not call for you. I was merely going to hang out with an old friend. As you might remember, the two of us did go to the same…”
“Do not play me for a fool, we all know that you hate one another to the bone.” Ademide said, stopping Aurora.
“That is what you wish to hear, to know, or to keep in mind. Either way, neither one of the facts that you want to believe in are true. The two of us have nothing against one another and Charlotte is not a person that I want to be in conflict with. And if you are talking about the small conflict that the two of us had, I am going to have to ask you, have you never had. an argument with a friend before? Because I think that we all do at a certain point.” I said, and Ademide laughed.
“Conflict? You came and stole the man that she was with. You chose to marry him and have his daughter.” She said, not bothering to care whether or not guests were around. Her words. seemed to catch the attention of a few people, and she looked down at her feet, clearly embarrassed.

“That is what you want to think, Ademide.” I said, looking at the woman who frowned in confusion as she looked at me. “The two of us have never been as close as we are now, and think that you know for fact that it was always destined for the two of them to get married. The last thing that I would be doing is stealing my friend’s man and vice versa. I’m not really sure who you are comparing me to, but I know that it is not me.”
Elder Jordan looked at the two of us, and the woman crossed her arms over her chest, frowning at the sight. It wasn’t like a wolf to be getting in conflict, no matter how small, with a human. And I knew that this wasn’t going to be something that she was going to ignore. This elder in specific had to dig her nose everywhere, and that was something that we all knew.
Alaria and Luka, taking in the scene, shook their heads at Ademide before Luka put his hand on his mother’s back. Both looked at me and Luka shook his head, to his mother’s dismay, but I never felt more alive than I was. Though I knew that this wasn’t going to be left with consequence.
“You are indeed right, I must have not chosen to hear the rumor that have spread around.” Ademide said, looking away from me. Her eyes were fixed on the ground for a few seconds. before Aurora put her hand on my lower back, nodding at me to walk with her. Murmurs. started around and most of their center was on Ademide, the woman who was pretending to be the kind and innocent step mother who never liked conflict.
Dimitri, who stood by the staircase, nodded at me and winked at Aurora before clearing his throat as he motioned for the music to start again. My heart, however, thumped against my ribcage as if I were plugged in higher voltages than my b*dy should be able to handle. I took a deep breath as I tried to calm myself, but I knew that this wasn’t going to end well for
- me.
“Well done,” Dimitri said from behind us, taking me off guard as he snapped me out of my thoughts. Aurora took a step back, standing by his side as he wrapped his arm around her. He k*ssed her temple and I shook my head, knowing for fact that I was at loss for words and action. I had a lot to be dealing with right now and the last thing that I needed was for me to find myself in such a situation where I was going to be stuck between ice and fire.
“I am going to be dead the second my father lays a hand on me. And I don’t even want to know what rumors are going to be spread around about the topic, the light that Ademide put on me with the elder, or what Luka would do if his mother manages to still convince him to be my ‘husband.” I said, voicing my fear out. There was no point in hiding it when I knew that the two of them were going to be one of the reasons things were happening the

way that they were. My hands shook and it took everything in me to force my b*dy to calm. down as I knew that things were going to be getting out of hand if I didn’t calm down.
“Neither he nor Luka is going to get a hand on you. As for the elders, let us handle that situation.” Dimitri said, making me frown as I tried understanding what he had on his mind. “You are under my wing now. And IF one thinks of hurting you, he is hurting the whole pack. I think that this should be a fair deal and bargain to repay for what you just did.
“What if it doesn’t work? What if they still…?”
“Then we go to war,” Aurora said, stopping me from asking. “The arrow has been shot, and I know for fact that it is going to hit a target with what we’ve just done.”
“Only the target will not be us,” Dimitri said, smiling down at his mate. “Now, you have two seconds to decide. Do you still want to go down, or are you on our side…?”
