Rejecting My Alpha Chapter 24
Dimitri POV It is late when I hear Augustus fussing.The sound carries through the quiet halls of my floor, soft at first, then more insistent. I am sitting alone when I hear it, and my attention immediately shifts toward the corridor.Athena's voice follows.Soft.Low.She is speaking to him in the same gentle tone I have heard her use countless times since she returned. I cannot make out every word from where I am, but I recognize the specific tone of her voice that is only meant for him. She is trying to soothe him.Usually, it works.Tonight, it does not.Augustus fusses again.My chest tightens.My wolf reacts before I can stop him.He is already awake, listening, his attention fixed on the sound coming from our son. The distress coming through the bond between us is immediate. It spreads through me until I find myself sitting forward, unable to ignore it.I tell myself there is nothing wrong.Athena is with him.She knows what she is doing.She has spent almost a year caring fo

Dimitri's POVI have been standing in the doorway for several minutes.I could have intervened the moment I walked in.These are my pack members, and what Gemma did is something I would address myself under other circumstances.I have never allowed anyone to mistreat the wolves under my protection simply because of rank. I would have stopped Gemma before she could make that omega lower his head in shame.But something in the way Athena moves stops me from stepping forward.She does not hesitate.She does not raise her voice.She simply stepped between Gemma and one of my wolves and made it clear that no one would be humiliated in her presence.The way she took a stand for my pack member, the way she protected him, does something in my chest.Something I do not have a name for.She is still protective what belongs to me.My pack.My people.And somehow, watching her do it feels different from anything I expected.No one notices me.My attention is fixed on Athena.She is sitting in my

Athena's POVThe first thing I notice when I step into the kitchen area is the smell.Fresh bread. Roasted meat. Herbs simmering somewhere in the outside kitchen.For a moment, I simply stand there with Augustus in my arms and let the familiar scents settle around me. There is something comforting about them, something that reminds me of mornings and evenings spent here when I used to live here.I have spent a year away from Blackridge, yet somehow the place still feels familiar.A she-wolf spots me from across the room and freezes.Her eyes widen before her face breaks into a smile."Luna."The word carries across the room, and within seconds, another familiar face appears from the kitchen.I smile softly as she comes toward me.She reaches me and immediately looks at Augustus."Oh, look at him."Her expression softens completely."May I?"I shift Augustus slightly in my arms, and she carefully touches his little hand."He is so beautiful."The warmth in her voice makes me smile.Mor

Dimitri POVThe first thing I want to do is question Athena.There are too many things I need to know. Too many questions that have been waiting inside me since the moment she walked into Blackridge carrying our son.But I am not reckless.One wrong question. One wrong word. One moment of anger, and she could decide that Blackridge is no longer a place she needs to remain.She is here for a week.Seven days.I can use seven days.So I keep every question behind my teeth and give her the space she needs to stay without feeling cornered.It takes more restraint than I am accustomed to.Especially when my wolf keeps reminding me that my son is only a few walls away.I notice him everywhere.Sometimes it is the faint scent of him drifting through the corridor after Athena passes. Sometimes it is the sound of a soft laugh carried from the packhouse. Sometimes it is simply the knowledge that he is somewhere inside the same roof as me.My attention shifts toward him before I even realize I a

Dimitri's POVMy wolf wants to see his pup.The need has been there since the moment I saw him. It has grown stronger with every second Athena has been inside the packhouse, separated from me by walls and a decision I have no power to change.I want to follow her.I want to walk inside and see Augustus again.I want to know what he looks like when he is close enough for me to see every small detail of his face. I want to hear his voice. I want to know whether he will look at me again.But Athena's cold attitude is clear.She made her position known the moment she called me Alpha Romanov.Whatever she intends to give me, it will not be easy.My wolf knows it too.He wants to push past every boundary she has placed between us.I hold him back.A soft scoff comes from beside me.Without even looking directly I know it is Gemma.Her eyes are fixed on the packhouse entrance, and there is something ugly in the way her mouth twists.She moves closer until she is beside me."After a year," sh

Dimitri's POVI cannot move.My body has forgotten how.My wolf is howling inside me, the sound so powerful that it seems to fill every part of my chest. Around me, the Blackridge wolves are still recovering from the instinctive submission that passed through the courtyard. Heads remain lowered. Shoulders are tense. Some of them look toward one another as though they are trying to understand what their instincts have recognized before their minds could catch up.I understand.At least, I understand enough.The pup in Athena's arms is mine.My pup.The words keep repeating inside my head, but they still feel too large to fit inside a single thought.Athena shifts him slightly against her chest.The movement draws my attention back to them.As if sensing my gaze on him, he turns his face toward me.For one brief second, our eyes meet.Those bright eyes look directly into mine.Something in me reaches for him.My wolf surges forward with such force that my hands tighten at my sides.Then
