Dimitri:
I watched as my mate’s smile grew brighter and her stance more confident than it had been earlier.
The two of us showed ourselves to the door as Elder Jordan followed shortly after, and I could tell that the woman seemed to be more impressed now than she had been before. If anything, it seemed that she was getting the answers that she wanted, and that was something that I was glad about.
“I wish that you would have stayed. You know, I would have at least had dinner prepared for you.” She said, and I shook my head. I knew that the elder’s maids were yet to cook. They rarely ever did unless asked or required to in such events, and I knew that it would have taken them a while before anything was ready. It was a tactic that they had and made to ensure that we stayed as long as they wanted us to. And that wasn’t something that I wanted.
“We have our daughter who has been home for a long while now, and I don’t want Aurora to start growing uncomfortable because of it.” I said, looking at my Luna. She looked at me with wide eyes, and I winked at her before turning to look at the elder who seemed to be more amazed than ever.
“I am surprised that the two of you managed to grow as close as you are. You know, for a man who wasn’t aiming to find a mate, the last thing that I expected was for you to be accepting her as much as you are.” She said, looking at Aurora. “I must salute you for the that you’ve managed your way into his heart. It is something to be praised for.”

“He is my mate and I am his. The two of us have managed to make our family whole the way that we want it.” I said, looking at my mate who smiled. Her eyes met mine and I ran my finger over her hand before taking it in mine, intertwining our fingers as I held her hand. And for the first time since the mating ceremony, I had to admit that I felt a bond that I didn’t think that I would before. The way that she looked at me and her beautiful smile. Everything about her was something that I was starting to appreciate, and I knew that it was something that she saw clearly. The way that she looked at me gave her out clearly, and I knew that even she understood that now, I wanted nothing more than to be happy with her.
“I am glad that the two of you have managed to work things out regardless of the difficulties.

that you must have gone through. As I know that they have been a lot more than one would have liked to handle or admit.” She said, and I smiled and nodded. Both Aurora and I bid the elder our goodbyes, and though I could see her mother looking at us through the window, the woman didn’t bother approaching us. She was annoyed that she couldn’t get to break my mate’s newfound confidence, and it was something that I aimed to build in her. Right now, the last thing that I wanted was for her to be hurt, and that was something that everyone was going to know.
The driver opened the car door for us, and I nodded at the man before putting my hand on my woman’s back, gently pushing her inside the car before getting in behind her. Her eyes met mine for a second, and though I knew that she would normally sit by the window, sliding toward it, this time, I didn’t want her to. I wrapped my arm around her, pulling her to my chest, and she smiled as
She looked up at me.
“I take it that we are no longer playing the ‘lovers‘ game?” She asked, and I smirked, leaning in to connect my l*ps with hers. The two of us smiled into the k*ss, and I pulled away to rest my forehead against hers.
“Well, that would depend, do you want us to play the game?” I whispered to her, running my finger over her bottom l*p. “Because I have a feeling that it is getting a little old for me.”
“Oh, really?” She teased,
“Yes,” I said, pecking her jawline. “I am thinking that we can start by moving on toward the honeymoon phase. You know, it’s a little past the time that we’ve done so, don’t you agree…?”
“Hey, hey, hey…” I said, my voice softening as I heard my daughter crying.
Aurora got up from bed, rubbing her eyes from sleep as she walked toward the nursery. while I carried our little one from her crib. Both her maids stood by the door, waiting for what I was going to tell them, but I didn’t deal with them in my woman’s presence. She was the one in charge of holding the house together, and this was something that I didn’t interfere in.
She nodded at them to walk out of the room, leaving the three of us alone, and I gently massaged my baby’s back, running my finger over it. She cried, and Aurora pinched the

bridge of her nose, trying to wake herself up a bit.
“Malyshka, you can go back to sleep. This is the fourth time you’ve woken up until now.” I said, shaking my head at her. It was a rough night for Angelina, and considering that she kept waking up every few hours, so did Aurora. And though I did offer to help her, she would refuse me doing so, and I knew that it was the normal thing to do. She was our baby’s mother, but I wasn’t going to have her dealing with everything by herself. I wanted to take part in raising our baby, and I wanted her to know that.
Angelina’s cries stopped almost instantly when she heard my voice, and when she looked at me, I couldn’t help but find myself loving her even more that I already did.
“You just wanted to hear daddy’s voice?” I asked, my voice softening as I looked at the little angel who lay in my arms. She looked at Aurora for a second and the coo that escaped her l*ps took my breath away as I saw her love for her mother. It was one that I was amazed by. She tried to move to Aurora, and I couldn’t help but chuckle before handing her to her mother. Aurora wrapped her arms around her, pulling her to her ch*st before walking toward her closet and picking out a feeding blanket which she covered her breast with before she pulled it out to feed our daughter.
“Does it hurt?” I asked, looking at our baby. She smiled and shook her head, making me smile.
“When she bites or sucks too hard, it does. But knowing that she is able to eat and nourish. herself only makes it better. And I know that it only a matter of time before she starts eating soft food then my milk wouldn’t be as needed for her.” She said, looking down at her. “It is one of the reasons why I want to cherish every moment that I can with her. Time is a thief, and I can’t help but find myself recalling her being smaller than even my arm, and now, she is growing older on a daily basis.”
I nodded in agreement, watching as she sat on the chair, holding her carefully as she made sure to keep her eyes on her.
“Thank you for today,” she said, taking me off guard. “I don’t know whether or not you meant any of what you said, but you don’t know how much it mean to me that you said it.”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“I meant every word of it,” I said, choosing to be honest with her. “But you don’t need to thank me for anything, You have done a lot more for me, and I hope that you understand that no matter what I am going to say or do, I am never going to be able to repay you for it.”
