“I don’t think that anything will change if Alpha or Luna finding out what has Agatha done”, Lotta said.
“What do you mean it won’t?” Victor asked.
“She’s done something awful to you, it doesn’t matter what’s her title, she has no right, and she needs to pe punished.”
“You are damaged for good!” Viktor was pissed.
“Oh, please, for them I’m just a worthless omega”, she was bittered.
“You know that’s not true, and you had a choice, damn it, Lotta, you still do!”
“No matter what I do, what I I’m, Agatha won’t let me be, how can’t you understand that?” She was trying to explain.
“You worth much more than she, especially now, when they see what you are”, Viktor said.
“No!” She yelled.
“No one mustn’t know, I forbid you to tell them!”
“Why?”
“Because you won’t stay here that long?” He found her weak spot.
“If you’re my friend, you will understand.”
“I’m your friend, and I’ll always will be, but I don’t understand Lotta.”
“You are the best warrior I know, much stronger than me, and healer also, this pack needs you, I need you in my life”, he said.
“I don’t know what I’m any more”, she said with a broken voice.
“You need time, maybe “, he said calmly.
“Mabe”, she said quietly.
The music and loud cheering were heard from the pack house, which was a sign that celebrating had begun and that Drake was there.
They looked at each other, significantly.
If she shows up there now, it will be strange and Agatha will have her suspicious, if she doesn’t Alpha will.
If she runs into Drake, she will have an anger attack or worse.
Either way, it wasn’t good, and Victor needed to be there.
“I think you should be there”, Viktor said to her.
“Why are you hate Agatha so much?“Lotta asked him, out of the blue.
“What are you talking about, I don’t hate no one”, he said surprised by her question.
“Is she your mate then?”
Victor took a deep breath, and sat on the ground, looking somewhere far.
It was like he was thinking about something and Lotta looked at him, trying to figure it out.
“My mate is dead Lotta.
She died in the last fight with the rogue’s attack.
She was the enemy.
Maybe that could be changed, but I was there too late, and couldn’t help her, so...”
“Anyway, the answer to your question is no, Agatha is not my mate, at least so far as I know”, he finished.
“I’m so sorry, I didn’t know, forgive me”, she said with sympathy.
“You couldn’t have, so you are forgiven”, he said.
“But you act so strange when it comes to Agatha”, she said to him.
“Like you want to rip her head off, especially now.”
“He smiled a bit.
“Now, I could do a lot of things, but no, that’s not the case.
“She just makes me feel weird, and I don’t like it, that’s all”, he said.
That made Lotta think.
That could explain a lot of things, but she wasn’t sure yet, so she would leave it for now.
It was time for them to appear at the party.
Tonight, Lotta needed to serve the family, well, Drake, to be exact.
“I believe you already have a plan in your head?” Viktor teased her.
“Well, you know me so well”, she laughed.
“Let’s go then”, he said and they headed up toward the pack house.
They both needed to change their clothing so that no one would figure out what happened a while ago.
Drake was more handsome than he was before his trip, two years ago.
He was taller and more muscular, so no girl didn’t want to be near him, but he was serious, sitting with his family at the table and talking about unimportant things.
That wasn’t a night for work, or a title that needed to be given, no, he has just arrived.
Tomorrow is a new day.
Alpha Martin liked her and her late parents, but his wife was hard to deal with sometimes, so he would allow her some things, but he always thought that he made a mistake degrading Lotta into an omega.
Lotta was so much more than that, and she couldn’t be seen all night.
That was strange, though.
“Isn’t Lotta supposed for serving us tonight?” Alpha asked his wife Mary, but Agatha answered fast instead of her.
“Oh, I guess she got herself forced too much, I’m sure she will show up in the morning”, she smiled a bit nervous, fixing her long black curly hair, while her blue eyes glowed with satisfaction.
She was acting, and no one couldn’t tell, anyone except her.
“Oh, not at all, I just had some things prepared, I’m here sir, as always”, Lotta smiled, as she brought them plates with food on them.
Agatha’s face went pale, and she couldn’t believe that it was Lotta there, like nothing happened just a few hours ago.
Lotta’s green eyes were shining also, but not from satisfaction, but from feeling that she was so broken and disappointed at the same time, so she was trying everything to stay calm and not burst into tears.
She wouldn’t give them that satisfaction, especially not to him, who was looking at her with those black, shiny eyes, that she had dreamed of for 2 years...
She must admit that he was handsome as hell but dangerous as a devil himself.
“Oh, I’m very pleased that you made it, but you can join the party after you finish, it was a long day for you”, Alpha Martin said.
“Oh, you have no idea sir, but I think I will just rest, it has been a long day for me”, she was trying to be polite, but the truth was Alpha was always kind to her, and she knew that it wasn’t all his fault, but he could decide, he had the last word.
“I think she could be joining us at the dinner”, she heard Drake’s deep voice that made her shiver.
Lotta almost dropped the tray when she heard him saying that. “Then, every omega could sit out the table with us, which isn’t appropriate, don’t you think , brother?” Agatha’s tongue was vicious as usual. She couldn’t stand Lotta’s closeness. “She has the point, Drake”, Mary agrees with her daughter, as usual. Martin cleared his throat and caught. “Lotta isn’t like other omega’s”, Alpha Martin said. “And yet, you made her as one , father”, Agatha was ruthless. “I made a mistake, just to please you and your mother”, he was embarrassed. “Enough!” Drake’s strong voice made them in shock, even Lotta. She just stood there, not knowing what to think, or feel anymore, all she knew was that she wanted to leave. “Is that true, father?” Drake’s voice was calmer, but still firm and serious, just like his face. “Yes, son, but you were there, it was before your 18 birthday”, Alpha Martin said. “I thought she was doing it for other reasons, that you were trying to help her like you shou
Lotta was looking at him as if she could kill him, she was so mad. “You may win the battle, but not the war”, she told him. “How will you be with a woman that despises you?” Without love, or ...” She bit her lips, not wanting to continue, which made him laugh. “Oh, I’m not worried, my precious”, he said and approached very close to her, so she could feel his breathing. “I’ve seen how you reacted to my touch, and I’m sure you will be very hot in bed, our bed”, he whispered, while he gently caressed her cheek. Lotta’s face was never that red. She wanted the earth to open up and swallow her, now. He was much taller than her, and so hot, and yes. She was attracted to him, but that was a bond that all mates had, it doesn’t mean that love will be there and strong enough. But she wanted that, once... A long time ago, before he left, without an explanation, before she realized why she was so bonded to him, but now she did. They were mates, destined ones, and nothing could change
Lotta’s POV What an arogant man! Who the hell, is he?! Talking to me like that and telling me what to do with my life, not to mention that he wants to marry me, like I’m his property! “You are his mate”, she heard Tessa in her head. “It doesn’t mean he can do what ever he wants with me!” Lotta said to her. “Ohh, you are mad about a kiss.” “You must admit, it was a great kiss”, Tessa teased her. Lotta touched her swollen lips, still warm from his gentle kiss. Tessa was right, he liked the kiss, and the thing was she wanted much more than a kiss, and that was what made her angry. Oh, God, why him? Why now? The bond was too strong, even then, she could feel it, but she could never imagine that Drake was her mate. She was always intimidated by his appearance, always, and she thought that there was no way that he would ever look at her, he was so much above her as she always thought, and a future Alpha. At that time, she was broken and couldn’t tell what would happen to her l
“It was you all the time!” She raised her voice. “I can’t believe I was so stupid to see it”, she said. “Tell me, damn it!” She yelled at Viktor. “Yes, it was me”, he admitted, and in his voice was a relief. “So, you were pretending to be my friend?” She was bittered. “I’ve never pretend, I’m your friend Lotta and I always will be, regardless of Drake, or what you think”, he said. “I didn’t do it because he’s a future Alpha or because I will become his Beta, I choose to be your friend, because of you”, he said. “You’ll be his Beta?” “Great reward”, she said. “It’s not what you think”, he told her. “Really?” “How is it then, Viktor, because I would really like to know”, she was upset. He took a deep breath before he started to talk. “Drake and I were always the best friends, you could always see us together”, he said. “Yes, I saw you, but I thought it was because you are his father’s best warrior, and he needed to train”, she said. “That too, but we grew up together, and
“I’m not sleeping with you !” She said, upset. “He smiled, with satisfaction on his face. “You aren’t, at least, not yet”, he said, calm. “What they’ll is that supposed to mean?” She asked him. “You will move your stuff into your new room, at the main house.” “I have no peace when you are here in the pack house alone, with free males that running around”, he was serious. “Oh, and near you I’ll be safer?” She was sarcastic. “You know you will, at least until I became an Alpha because then you are moving with me, into our room”, he said. “You are crazy, I’m not going to do that”, she was firm. “Stop being so childish.” “You know I won’t do anything you don’t want me to, otherwise I would do it a long time ago, damn it!” He was frustrated, but he kept his calmness. She was quiet, thinking about what he just said. He was right, he could have her that same night at the garden if he wanted to, and she would let him. Shit! Why he must always be right?! And, so damn hot! God.
Lotta’s room was next to Drake’s, only a wall separated them, and, for her, it wasn’t enough. She didn’t feel safe, not because she thought he would hurt her, no, it was the opposite. She knew that he could be trusted, but she was afraid because she had a hard time controlling herself near him. Her room had everything she needed, and more. The closet was filled with her clothes, old and new, in her size. Drake thought of everything, she thought. It was strange for her to get used to all this, especially, because she had no idea how to behave. She couldn’t be there doing anything, it wasn’t her at all, not to mention that Agatha was on the other floor with their parents, and she knew that it would be impossible to avoid her. She didn’t try to, everything she wanted was to be left alone, but considering Agatha, that would be hard. It seemed like Drake felt that something was wrong between the two, so he made sure that she stayed alone with him, in his part of the house. She ne
She was looking at his lips that were so warm on her. She was drawn to them like enchanted, wanted to kiss them so badly. And she did. She kissed him passionately like she was a drowning man who was fighting for air, and he responded with the same passion. She was holding his shirt, wanting to tear it apart, and he caressed her hot body, with his warm, big hands. It felt so good, it felt right, to both of them. His lips were all over her neck, and when he exposed her shoulder, she froze. She remember those awful scars that she had on her back. He mustn’t see them. She stopped, fighting with herself, to let him go. They were breathing heavily, knowing the reason why. Their desire was too big, and both of them knew it. “I’m sorry, I was carried away”, she whispered, fixing her shirt. She was uncomfortable looking him in the eyes, especially because she felt how excited he was when they were kissing. “I gues that makes two of us”, he cleared his throat. “Look at me , Lotta
“Suzy, look at me and tell me who scared you”, Lotta said slowly, with a calm voice. “Alpha and Luna have another Omega to serve them, Lisa is her name, she’s older than me, and sometimes we meet here because Alpha Drake has a different schedule”, Suzy Said. “And? Lotta asked. “And, the kitchen is shared, so Miss Agatha has her demands. She is very picky, so she comes here often to tell Lisa what she wants to eat and when”, Suzy said. “I can’t imagine what she has told you, but, you don’t have to be afraid of her, understand? Lotta said. “I heard stories...“, Suzy said but stopped, and looked at Lotta’s eyes. Lotta’s heart pumped faster because she could imagine what she had heard, but now that wasn’t the point. “What ever that was, you can forget it Suzy.” “You work your job here for Alpha Drake as usual, without worries, for that I’ll take care of”, she said. When I come here, you just act normal, because I’m not someone that judges or demands.” “When I need your help, I’
