Adrian
She was here, i knew that i knew i had to be prepared to see her again, god i have missed her terribly i have lived with the pain of her absences now for years, three exact, the only pain that felt like this was my mother’s death, and the day i left her behind in galleria on our mating ball, but I will not lie, seeing her unmated brought joy to my dark soul and relief, she was still mine…
I knew Lukrezia since i was eight, my mother was a healer of her pack or so i thought for most of my childhood, my story was complicated and my love to her was a the only thing that helped me overcome my pain towards the loss of my mother.
I always thought i was just a normal kid, but i was not that, i was hard to get around i was not following orders and i was as strong as the alpha son spencer, we were close but i felt a strong competition towards him, my abnormal behavior caught the attention of the alpha whom seemed too aware of me and treated in somewhat special way than any other pup
All I knew is that my father was from another pack, a strong warriors who stood for justice, died when a rogue attack the pack, and my mother not wanting to stay in a place without her mate, decided to return to her own pack and rise her son there. But to my dismay it was more than that.
It was on my 15 birthday that i knew what i was exactly, i shifted to my wolf with spencer and he was as shocked as i was, he went and told his father and he helped calming me down from the crazy emotions i was feeling he held me down to the floor as i was ripping my clothes of from the heat that was burning through my veins and blood that covered by body as my claws ripped my skin open and healed in a second, i did not understand what it was but it was painful, my mother looked at me in shock and i felt she had all the answers for the madness i was in.
It was the following day when I woke up, the alpha stayed with me afraid i might hurt someone, as i woke up he was standing in the corner of my room, his eyes calming and his scent of smoked woods filling the room, i could sense it, smell every scent, but it made no sense i was too young to shift.
He walked to me and held my hand looking into his sleepless eyes, «how are you feeling champ?” He said looking into my eyes, i did not have a reply, but i answered him, "okay i guess" he smiled "get dressed and lets have breakfast. as he opened the door and left the room i heard voices outside, one i recognized as my mother, the other oe was to another woman it was the luna, what was happening ?
I dressed and went down as fast as i could, in the small living room was my mother, Alexandra, the alpha and the Luna, she stood as she saw me, and run over for me to hug, " you have no idea how worried i was" i was tempted to hug her back but i wanted answers, i let go of her hug and looked her in the eyes, she was sad " I know you want answers you have right to know who you truly are."
I did not understand what she meant, what was that she held my hand and walked me to the table, she sat down, the truth was too big to handle.
"your father was Alpha Rafael Romano, Alpha of the black roses pack, i was his Luna, and you were burn two years after we met, he was visiting for business to the pack." she signed, looking at her hands as she talked, lifting her head her eyes swelled from tears and sadness, my heart thudded he was murdered by his brother, you father and his brother were both alphas, which is something rare to happen, after your father death i was kicked out of the pack and hid my pregnancy from them and came back here"
I could not believe what i was hearing i was an alpha, not just a normal wolf, the alpha did not look shocked of the news, i looked at him «how much did you know alpha?" I asked him, I viewed him as a father and respected him deeply.
He looked at me and smiled "since the day your mother came crying and beaten up by your uncle" he said his eyes flashing a dark golden color, "did you know my father? " I asked him, he chuckled, we go way back, since he even met your mother, we trained together and worked together, and when my own father kicked me out for accepting my Luna it was your parents that opened their house to me." the Luna held her husband hand and looked rather sad, she turned her head and looked at me "your father was a great man, we were waiting for you to get of age" there is a lot you need to know and a lot have happened since your father died"
"When we came back and we found your mother in the pack we did not understand Rafael was a dear friend to us." said the Luna, anger obvious in her voice.
you will know everything at the right time, now we need to hide your identity, till the right come" he said smiling at me.
I was the lost alpha, and deep within me I wished I stayed hidden, a lot have changed since that, knowing how my life would change after that night and how my faith was intertwined with one princess and how breaking her heart for her safety was destroying me inside.
Lukrezia I sat in my bed, remembering last night, it was the rehearsal dinner and all the attended guests were here to celebrate the groom and bride, I wore a long beige and gold dress with embroideries all over it with straps hanging low on my arms. it showed my broad shoulders and my neck, I sat in the room getting ready for the dinner, my hair was curled in loss waves, with two strands pulled back, I went with long gold earring with hanging shimmering straps and a simple bracelet to match it. My makeup was light and mainly nude, the only exception was the winged eyeliner that made my sleepy eyes the star of the show, with soft gold eye color and pinkish nude my look was done, I looked at myself in my reflection and I was pretty amazed, I looked good, my gaze fell down my neck and I saw the empty spot on my neck were my mate should one day mark me, I felt my heart hurting at the memories that flashed in front of my eyes, it w
Adrian I was in my room as I remembered last night, She looked as beautiful as ever, I watched her as she walked out of the small villa and walked her way to galleria, the scent of wilds roses and rain came to my nose and looking at how curvy and meaty she got in the best three years was doing magic to me, she looked stunning. I followed her until she reached the front house and then entered, some fuckers were stripping her with their eyes and I was right behind them, a growl filled by pure possessiveness left my lips as I looked at the idiots who dared to look at her, she was mine and mine alone, some recognized me and were shocked, others just ignored, I was here based on the former alpha invitation, I still wanted to know why he had invited me still, at first ii refused, then I was overcome with homesickness, I wanted to go back there, to see my mother grave, my old house, and most importantly to see her… She did not p
Lukrezia I woke up to adi rushing to the room, i slept but i do not long for how much, the wedding was not going to start until late in the afternoon, enough time to get everything and everyone in place when time comes. My head felt heavy, and my eyes were wet, fuck was i crying in my sleep? I looked away covering my face with a pillow, the sun was still up so there was still time, I wondered if what happened yesterday was just a dream, that he did not just show himself after three years and confused the hell out of me. "skyler"... Adi said, barely a whisper, I removed the pillow and set up. it was real. he was here and very much real, i looked at my friend and she looked like she had something to say, the look on her face was not one of good news so i prepared myself for the worst. "What is it ?" I asked, getting off of bed."well, we have a bit of a situation, the maid of honor could not make it and the bride is going crazy, she asked me to see if you are interested in taking t
Lukrezia. I sat in the room with my mother, looking at the dress, then tempted to try it on but convinced otherwise. I needed a shower, I went to my bag and felt my mothers eyes watching my every move. She did not say anything, she just stood there and looked at me, waiting for me to say something, i was not going to ruin this day, i swear elina would set us on fire if the wedding is not happening today. Did dad say something? I finally said, i knew dad was pissed, not that he was here no, he still did business with the romano that was not a secret, but the fact that this was supposed to be a close gathering, with mostly family members and very few alphas of old connections and relations, and i knew for sure it was granddad that invited him No, your dad is pretty pissed, it took
Adrian I knew the salvatores as I basicly grew up with them, Elina and Philip falling in love was on of the things i grew envy to have. I stood infornt of the mirror lost in memory lane as every emotion, dream and memory visited me in this place, that deep down with in me will always be called home. My life with my mother was rather simple, it was always just the two of us, as a child i did not cause much trouble and was always for her, the loss of her mate was still so ever raw in her eyes that i did not understand it until much later, but the way she spoke of my father always brought me curious of the idea of being in love. Then she came, the whole pack was excited to welcome the Alpha again, I was merely eight years old and mom was invited inside Galleria, which was normal considering she always took care of the alpha family as the chief of medical stuff in the pack hospital.It was a cold evening and my mother had a last minute emergency, she looked at the luna that excused her
AdrianThe wedding started already, I got my tuxedo out and prepared by one of my men, what was she going to wear, she looked different the more I thought if it, her hips a bit wider, her hair thicker and her eyes dreamier... fuck the thoughts of her have been eating me alive since last night, what was I doing.Leaving her that night was the hardest thing I had to do in my life, my beautiful gorgeous mate, she surely has changed her skin was brighter her figure fuller, the sway of her hips yesterday was killing me, made every ounce of blood go south, goddess may this day end on a good term.the truth of the matter was as follows, there is a business deal I need to finish, there has been a rumour that some alphas are dealing in some shady business from slavery to illegal activities, as the Romanos and the Salvatore were of old blood it was our duty to hold balance within the packs, something the Salvatore’s have been doing without my family involvement since my father died, but is start
LukreziaI shouldn't have worn the stupid dress, for one it was just too much, I felt exposed, my arms my chest naked and most importantly my neck naked, which was not a good thing.I was happy to see my uncle and his gorgeous woman hand in hand sealing their vows of love to one another, yet it hurts, i felt my wolf sadness and my heart ached for her, for us both...My head was low and i was unable to lift it up, i knew some eyes were on me, and i had no intention of facing them, i was just standing looking pretty.'say it and he will be kicked out, come on smile a bit' to my utter shock my twin voice came through the mind link and i was thrilled, smiling wholeheartedly at his direction. when i raised my head in his direction everyone else looked at the same direction, my parents and brothers were thrilled.Hunter was a good diplomat, what my eldest brother lacked in negotiations and relations, was all covered by Hunter. Last i knew he was in east Verso for some deal my dad was havin
LukreziaThe night has settled and the party started, we danced sang and enjoyed everything having brothers here was amazing, even though i had shadows looming.We weren't fancy, we enjoyed being loud and very very normal growing up away from the pack in our early childhood made us strongly bonded to one another. Even though my grandfather did not enjoy us being in his own words too loose he did not comment on anything, we had a slow dance of the bride and the groom after the omegas made a quick work of clearing the main ball room where the ceremonies took place. I danced with my father and brother and chatted a bit, When the final song cane and i was ready to leave the area I found myself cradled in the arms of a man i once thought he forgot how to embrace me."What are you doing?" I asked, my voice barely audible, his hands roaming my body as if he was holding to his dear life, his face unreadable. " you owe me a dance from last night, remember?" trying to get myself from his hold
