Katerina:I kept my eyes on Inna whose hands shook as she processed what I said. Her eyes looked around the pack members who were watching the scene with wide eyes, clearly not expecting this to be my comeback or what was happening as a reaction.Her eyes met Nathan’s and I knew that she silently pleaded with him to help her in this situation; however, I also knew that by our rules and nature, not even Nathan could say anything about this. If anything, I was surprised that she hadn’t realized that before looking at her son for help.“Who do you think you are to speak to your Luna…?”“You are not my Luna, Inna” I said, stopping the woman from embarrassing herself anymore in front of the pack members “I am aware that you haven’t processed that, but I do suggest that you do, because if not, I will be sure to force you to do so my way. For now, I am still respecting that you are my husband’s mother, and that you are in the position of being my own mother-in-law, do not force my patience”
Nathan:I walked toward my mom’s house with a heavy heart.Never in my life did I think that I would be forced to choose between her and my duties as an Alpha; but it seemed like life has taken a path that not even I expected. I knocked on the door twice, watching as Vitaly opened the door, already knowing that it was me. He kept his eyes on the ground, avoiding my eyes as he took a step back, fearing my anger. But I wasn’t angry with him, I couldn’t be if I wanted to anyway. “She is in the room, and I don’t know whether or not she would want to see anyone right now” Vitaly said. I nodded, knowing that he was right. If anyone knew that mom would be more than just a little upset with me right now, it was me, but she needed to know that I didn’t like doing this anymore than she hated me doing it.I walked toward her room, knocking the door twice as I heard her crying inside the room. She wouldn’t respond, not that I expected her to anyway, and I sighed opening the door, walking inside
Katerina:“Hello?” I asked, rubbing the sleep from my eyes as I answered whoever was calling. Nathan, who was asleep by my side, opened his eyes, frowning in confusion at who was calling this early in the morning.“Hello, is this Mrs. Katerina Kozlov?” A man asked.“Yes, it’s me” I said, sitting up. Nathan sat up, shaking his head in confusion before a smile replaced his forming frown.“I am Professor Jasper from…”“Professor Jasper? As in the one professor we knew majoring in business laws?” I asked, looking at Nathan who wrapped his arm around me. I allowed myself to lay on his chest, relaxing in his embrace as he ran his hand over my stomach, resting his chin over my shoulder as he did. “Yes, I am proud to know that I am remembered” he said, arrogantly. I had to fight back a rude comeback, as the reason behind remembering the bastard was that most of his class, my classmates, failed during taking his course; I was surprised to know that I have passed back then, but seeing as I had
Nathan:I wrapped my arms around Katerina, hugging her tightly before heading out of the house to the garage where I knew Carter would be waiting. The two of us still had a lot of work to do, and knowing that I had to check on mom before leaving was something that I didn’t miss. I didn’t know how she was right now, but judging by what happened last night, I wasn’t stupid as to believe that she would be having a tea party.My eyes caught sight of Vitaly who was walking out of the house, his eyes were fixed on the ground as he walked toward the garage. “Vitaly” I said, breaking whatever train of thoughts he was lost in. He looked up at me, his eyes widening in surprise as he realized that he didn’t notice my presence before he smiled.“My apologies, Alpha, I wasn’t aware that you were here”“I can see that” I said, nodding at him “how are you? How was your night?”“It was well, thank you, and I am fine, I do hope that you and Luna Katerina had a nice evening” he said, politely. He was
Katerina:I walked out of the house to check on the pack members while Nathan was at work.Knowing that Inna wouldn’t be approaching me, at least I hoped so, I knew that I wouldn’t be encountering any other problems unless the pack members decided to rebel while their Alpha wasn’t around.I knew that I still had to go out to get my things for university, but I still wanted to make sure that things were going well out here within the pack’s ground before I left.“Katerina?” Jade called, her smile growing when she saw me out of the house “Alpha Nathan has allowed you out of the house?”“He never locked me inside, love, it was me who didn’t like going out when he wasn’t around or hadn't given me permission to do so. Anyhow, how are you? How’s things?” I asked, walking around the field. I smiled at the pack members who were preparing the arena for their training later and at those who were clearing out the fields in preparation for tonight’s shift.“I’m fine, things have been calmer than
Nathan:I watched as Katerina entered the house with her head hung low.A small frown was on her face as she put the things she bought on the floor by the door, clearly not noticing my presence. Not saying a word, I walked toward her when she turned around to take her jacket off, heading to hang it before wrapping my arms around her from the back, resting my chin on her shoulder. She tensed for a second before leaning into my touch, her body relaxing somehow despite her racing heartbeat.“Do you want to tell me what’s bothering you?” I whispered, kissing her cheek. She didn’t respond for a few seconds before she sighed.“I saw my friends today, and things got a little heated, I guess. They’re upset about the fact that I didn’t invite them to the wedding and the fact that they never met you. Anyhow, don’t worry about it; it will die down in a few days” Katerina said, turning around to face me. She wrapped her arms around my neck, hugging me tightly as she buried her head in the crook
Katerina:Nathan purred at the sight of my white and gray wolf as he shifted to his black one.Slowly approaching me, I lowered my gaze to the ground as I submitted to him as my Alpha, purring when he rubbed his muzzle against my own.The two of us looked one another in the eye before my wolf decided to tease her mate by wiggling her tail before taking off, sprinting before he followed close behind. I purred, watching as he stood in front of me, his stance playful before he lunged over me, knocking me down.He rubbed his muzzle against my neck, his purrs getting louder before he licked my ear. I laid my head on the ground, enjoying the feeling before he got off me and waited for me to get up. His eyes met mine and despite me being in wolf form, I couldn’t help but want to shy back as I noticed how big he was compared to me.Taking notice of that, Nathan slowly approached me, his tongue licking my nose for a second before he laid down, watching the pack, looking at me as he called me t
Nathan:I kept my arms wrapped around Katerina as she curled in my arms, her chest rising and falling with each breath she took, her heartbeat calm, and her body relaxed, making me smile down at my sleeping beauty.I kissed her temple, tightening my arms around him “morning”Katerina’s voice was above a whisper as she spoke, her eyes meeting mine, and I couldn’t help the smile that formed on my lips when I saw her raising herself to kiss my cheek “good morning, malyshka”“When did you wake up?” She asked, looking me in the eye.“A while ago, I couldn’t stand the idea of getting up from bed while you slept. Plus, the pack members still need a while to fix up the arena outside after last night” I said, pulling her closer, kissing her lips, gently biting her bottom lip. Katerina hummed in response, smiling into the kiss.“The two of us need to get out of bed, my love” Katerina said, her eyes meeting mine. My eyes widened in surprise at her choice of words, and seeing as she didn’t notice
