AELIA REVA
" Welcome to the Pack, Mate." He lets out in his deep, husky voice. Dear Lord, I'm mated to an Alpha.
Wait for a damn minute. If he's the Alpha and I'm his mate then it means that I'm his Luna.
Oh Dear, dear Goddess.
"Aelia Wh- Oh," Tyler's voice pulls me out of my trance and I move my head to the side to see Tyler looking at me and Ulric with a defeated and hurtful gaze.
"Tyler, do you need something?" Ulric asks in his demanding Alpha voice making my knees go weak. His expression was void of any emotion, his charming smile no longer seen.
He looks at both of us with his defeated eyes and points his hand between us looking with furrowed eyebrows.
Before Tyler could say another word, Ulric beats him to it.
"Yes, you are thinking correct. We are mates." Ulric says giving me a glance full of love and care that makes my heart beat at an unnatural rate and I look away from him, staring at my shoes as if they are the most interesting thing I saw today.
I still can't believe I'm mated to an Alpha. Like, come on. It almost feels like the goddess is playing a prank on me.
"Well, congratulations Alpha Ulric and.....Lia." He congratulates us but I can sense it is half-hearted.
Now I feel bad for allowing him to get close to me a few times over my stay here. Poor guy. But he made it clear last night that I'm not made for him and I agreed.
I felt nothing but a little bit attracted towards his look and gentle manner but now that I've found my mate I can't think of any other man romantically.
"Thank you, brother. Now if you don't mind. I just found my mate after such a long time. I would like some privacy."
Ulric orders Tyler in his commanding tone wanting us to have some alone time.
"Sorry if I sound invasive Alpha but Maria wants Lia to start her shift," Tyler says lowering his eyes while talking to Ulric.
I mean I would prefer to not lock eyes with an Alpha, especially if that Alpha is Ulric Knight.
"And why would MY MATE need to do that? Why does she even need to work here." Ulric asks him as if he is disgusted by the fact that I work here.
To earn money duh.
"I just came to this town, I need to start working if I want to earn money," I say to explain to him a little offended by his comment.
Ulric seems to notice my mood.
"I did not mean to offend you, love, it's just that, you don't need to work now Aelia. We are mates, we're equal." He says to me tenderly caressing my left cheek
"I still want to so it's okay. I'll be down in a minute Ty." I say to Tyler smiling softly at him.
"Sure Lia." He says to me winking in my direction making Ulric growl. Tyler flashes down using his speed seeing Ulric's expression.
"Ty...Lia....So you guys on nickname bases or something." Ulric lets out in a tone full of jealousy and envy.
