Chapter 90

Chapter 90 Dimitri:

| walked into the pack, my stomach churning as | tried to control the anger that | felt at the situation that | was in.

| didn’t even know how | managed to get into it, but | knew one thing, whoever allowed this to happen was going to be paying with their lives for this. lvan’s eyes met mine from the distance and he shook his head, knowing that things were not going to be ending well. | knew that Aurora was in the pack, | caught her scent a while ago, and | knew that she wasn’t going to risk leaving Angelina anyway. And her taking her was not something that she was going to do, she couldn't afford it, and the woman knew that it was fatal to even think of doing something like this.

“What the fuck happened?” | asked him and he shook his head. | knew that even he was confused as to what might have happened. The fact that Charlotte didn’t come to the forest was something that | didn’t understand and how she managed to lead Aurora to the hotel was another thing that | was lost about. | wanted her to come for me to tell her that anything that | gave her was going to be taken away from her as | gave it, especially if she were to get her old life back with her father; if she wanted her titles back and if she wanted to get her freedom back, then she was to sign the papers. But the woman seemed to have other plans that | didn’t know of.

“| don’t know, Dimitri. | waited for her to show up, but her scent was not one that | caught anywhere close. | don’t even know how Aurora...”

“Aurora used a masking scent. It runs in her family anyway, but what | don’t understand is how the fuck Charlotte managed to reach her. And if she didn’t, how did she manage to find the hotel, you in the secret garden, and...”

“Do you think that she came here?” Ivan asked, and | shook my head, not sure how she would be able to do so. The pack members wouldn't allow her to approach the perimeter, but considering the factors that we had in our hand, | didn’t know what to and what not to trust.

“Alpha,” Damon said, calling me. | shook my head in question, and he showed me his phone. It was the security cameras revealing Charlotte entering the pack and then talking to Aurora. | closed my eyes and shook my head in question.

“As long as you fucking knew, why the fuck didn’t you...?”

“We only found out when Luna Aurora came back.” He said, and | frowned, taking “We a deep breath. “She was raging and when she left the pack without saying a word, | had to check the footage for anything that was unusual.”

“And where the fuck were you to begin with?” | asked, glaring at the man. He looked down at his feet for a second and | shook my head before turning around.

and heading to the house. It didn’t matter where they were to begin with, | didn’t. expect them to be doing nothing throughout the whole day, and | had to admit, | didn’t even know how Charlotte had the guts to enter the pack in the first place. But for her to be calling me should have been warning enough to me. The woman was not going to be leaving without leaving her own hurricane behind, and knowing her, | knew that she would aim to destroy everything in her path for the sake of her own benefit.

| walked inside the house and didn’t bother waiting to speak to anyone as | walked up the stairs to the nursery. | knew that Aurora would be there, and hearing her heartbeat in there, | knew that | was not wrong. However, opening the door, the last thing that | expected to see was her smiling. If anything, it was as if she wasn’t raging on me a few hours ago.

She looked at me for a second before putting Angelina in her crib. She fixed her dress before taking a step back and turning to our room through the connected. door. The maid’s room was a small one connected to Angelina’s, and though it was connected to ours too, she couldn’t hear a word of what was going on in our bedroom.

| looked down at my daughter for a second, watching as the maid walked inside. the room to take care of her, and | couldn’t help but find myself feeling the ache that | felt in my chest. | didn’t even know where things were going to go, but | knew that we were hitting a base that | wouldn’t have wanted to reach after | thought that we were trying to fix things.

| followed Aurora inside the room and was quick to close the door only to notice. that she wasn’t inside it in the first place. The water ran in the bathroom, and | closed my eyes, taking a deep breath as | sat on the edge of the bed, knowing that this was going to be a long night.

| was not one who liked to be fooled, and | knew that Charlotte not only played. me for a fool, but somehow managed to force an idea inside Aurora’s mind, and that wasn’t one that | wanted.

Aurora walked out of the bathroom a few pants and a long sleeved shirt. | knew thanutes later, wearing a pair of sweat she wore them to go to bed, but | wasn’t going to let her sleep without the two of us talking about this.

“Aurora...”

“| do not want to talk, Dimitri.” She said, stopping me.

“We have to fix this, we just managed to actually build something...”

“We built nothing,” she said, stopping me. “If | chose to trust you with something yesterday; it had nothing about building trust. It was more or less for my benefit and yours. At least you got to know who you have as the mother of your child, and | know who |

am. However, it is going to stay there...”

“Aurora, Charlotte only did this because she felt threatened when | didn’t allow her to enter the pack yesterday...”

“So, you went ahead to compensate by going to her hotel, didn’t you? You know, the one that you got for her.” She said, shaking her head at me. “Do you take me for a fool?”

“lam not required to answer to you, but | did believe that we were going to be able to have ONE subtle conversation as adults.” |

said, glaring at her. “However, since you are choosing to allow your jealousy to take over your rationalism, | am going to have you know that it...”

“Jealousy?” She asked, frowning at me. “I watched the two of you being together in front of me on what was supposed to be our honeymoon. | was carrying your baby, and you two did nothing but put me through so much pain, and the second. | THINK that I can trust you, | find you in that woman’s hotel. Do you it is just jealousy that | am on about?”

think the “Are you really that arrogant, Dimitri?” She asked, shaking her head in question. “Do you really believe that every woman is going to swoon in front of you simply because...?”

“| tried explaining my reason to you, but considering the fact that you are far too blind to want to see or listen to the facts; then so be it. See me as arrogant, as cold, and as the man that you want to see.” | said, stopping her. “I have no fucking reason to explain something to a woman who refuses to have a proper conversation without bothering to listen.”

| turned to the door before looking at the woman over my shoulder. “You can take the bed, | am going out...”
