Having settled in the room and leaving her things, she decided to have a bite to eat in a restaurant on the first floor of the hotel, and to think over today again.The main goal for her today was to visit the municipality. And only then she will be able to make herself a gift: walk through the capital's shops, look into them and ask the price.Everything turned out better than Alina expected. The bureaucracy here was not as bloated as in her world. Alina made an appointment with her boss for tomorrow. On the same day, she asked me to sign up for the questionnaire for the specialty, immediately after the meeting with the boss, they are waiting for her.She made a preventive appointment with the head of the department, obviously realizing that her case was extremely rare and it was better to ask the decision maker for advice. In the meantime, she is waiting, you can do what any woman loves: shops, shops - the names are different, but the essence for a woman is the same.After four hour
The next day, Alina was pleasantly surprised by the speed of the educational bureaucracy in this world. She was pleased that the staff took her question seriously, the head of the education department quickly made a request, endorsed her documents and sent it by courier for verification and an answer to her non-standard situation. She will be informed about the answer by phone, and she will be able to pick up the already prepared documents. She also passed a survey on her profession, and they promised to give her an answer along with an answer about evening school. Alina decided to please herself and take a walk around the city. She had a great day, visited the history museum, walked in the park, looked at the townspeople. There were many vacationers and walkers in the center: couples, families, companies. But she walked around the capital not at home, but in an unfamiliar world. Only now, comparing her usual capital and this new one for her, Alina clearly understood that this was h
Alina immediately liked the house, and the surroundings, reminiscent of the old districts of the capital, where mostly local residents lived, who knew their neighbors well. If only here the houses were lower, and there was more greenery, which added comfort.“There is a good apartment building here, and the area is quiet, there are many families, the prices are low, since mostly people live. I will show you a small apartment for one, and, if you want, there are bigger options for families.- Great, let's see. And don't forget about prices, this is an important point for us.They looked at four apartment options, all that were free. Apartments could be rented or bought. Stefan specifically chose the option of the house most suitable for Alina, which spoke of his professionalism. The only thing, Alina was unpleasantly surprised by the prices. An apartment of similar footage as their family apartment cost almost twice as much. And the prices in similar areas around the city were about th
Alina decided to dedicate the following days to getting to know the capital, walking and visiting important places. The day before, she and Stefan looked at apartments in the city in the old district and next to the tenement house, in a small square, Alina noticed such a wonderful showcase of a jewelry store.The showcase of this salon looked so magical. This is how she imagined the salon of a master jeweler: beautiful wooden elements, a chic wooden door, a large showcase.Alina wanted to come in and see the room inside, see the master's products, talk with the seller. And perhaps even meet the master himself. In the center she went to a couple of jewelry stores, but they were so modern, bright, shiny; yes, just chic, but faceless.And Alina really wanted magic: a mysterious interior and beautiful decorations that are created in one copy and have their own history.Having ordered a mobile, Alina thought that in that life she was an experienced driver. It is worth finding out about dri
She said goodbye to David on a good note. She was delighted with another small victory and she decided to walk on foot, admire the capital. After all, this Moscow was strikingly different from that one.Houses with a maximum height allowed in the city of four floors, but more often there were two and three floors. A large amount of greenery: lawns with shrubs or small trees, various flower arrangements.Often she met tiny squares with benches, small parks, open patches with the same flower arrangements. Soon Alina realized that she was approaching the center, as establishments only for werewolves began to meet. The streets have become wider, the few shops still more luxurious.Alina was an adult woman, although in the body of a young girl, and she understood that such a difference was not the oppression of people who were more numerous in this world, it was a natural selection that exists in nature, and which should be reckoned with.And do not become like infantile girls and young me
Mom met her on the mobile, and they quickly drove home. Valentina did not look very good: circles under her eyes, nervous movements. Alina immediately realized that a difficult conversation lay ahead.Dasha, according to her mother, was at home and was waiting for Alina. She really wanted to know everything: about the college and about the capital. Alina left her things in the room and decided to immediately go down to the kitchen. Drink tea, as suggested by my mother, and talk.- Mom, let's first tell you why you are so nervous and where the circles under your eyes come from. Are you sleeping badly?Dasha went to school this week. Every day comes and says that today is worse than yesterday. Alina, she is being bullied there. I talked with the teacher and with the director, they will not be able to help, - and there was so much bitterness in the words. “We have a coeducational school. There are classes mixed with werewolves. So they incite the rest, and spread all sorts of nasty thing
Alina described in detail everything that she managed to do in the capital. Dasha immediately took the information about the college, but at the request of her mother, she did not watch yet, but listened attentively to Alina.They also discussed a possible part-time job for their older sister. And here Alina's mother opened her eyes to many things. It all started with a conversation about a part-time job in a jewelry store.“Alina, you will be very lucky if you are hired as a sales assistant in a place like this. I'm surprised you didn't get rejected right away. But for the first three months, you will be there more like a salesman's apprentice than an assistant. You will need to be taught a lot. Spend a lot of time on you. Therefore, you will receive very little at first. Are you ready to work practically for free for several months?— I want to work with stones and jewelry, so I will calmly wait three months.Not three months, but more. At first you will be a student, then you will
Dasha planned to collect things, for which she decided to order various boxes at home. Mom had a possible meeting with the director and a trip to the real estate office.Alina herself was going to help Dasha with the collection and go to the center, looking after decent clothes for work. It was also possible to buy in the capital, but things of the same quality cost almost twice as much there. And Alina hasn't even earned anything yet. She has only been spending. And I wanted to keep costs down.The former Alina did not have suits and the rest for work, her clothes were divided into everyday and going out.Dasha has already told Alina that she loved to dress smartly. And being the wife of the head of the clan, she could afford it. The former Alina loved parties, going to events, to premieres. But it was with her husband, without him she did not go anywhere, she had such an upbringing. Due to a good education, Alina had something to talk about, she knew how to behave in society, since
Epiloguethree years laterAlina sat at the table in her office and carefully read the letter. Surprisingly, she did not at all expect that Federico's mother, Anna-Maria Maggi, would write to her. She wanted to show it to her husband right away, but she could not resist and read it. In the letter, she asked not to immediately tell her son that she wanted to improve relations, because she had not been for so many years, and Anna-Maria was afraid that her son would not accept her.It turns out that quite recently Anna-Maria found out that her grandson, the heir to the Madzhi family, was born to her. That is why she could not resist and decided to write to her son's wife, that is, to her, Alina. Yes, Federico could be very stubborn about some things and would obviously be against the communication of his wife and runaway mother.Anna-Maria asked to enter into her position and still establish communication, at least through correspondence, where she could receive at least some information
Alina smelled simply divine, because it was impossible to hide the truth from him, she wanted him just like he wanted her. Federico laid her on the bed, and yet he caught a hint of uncertainty in the smell. What is this? Why does she doubt? And, yes, she is a person, and the world of smells is not as accessible to her as it is to him. After all, Alina cannot be afraid of communication with him, her first husband was a werewolf.Soothingly, he began to cover her fingers with kisses, gradually rising up her arm. The tongue ran along the wrist, then made a path along the forearm, getting to the elbow. Feeling the trembling of his beloved, he leaned over to kiss her, but Alina rested her hand on her chest, stopping him.What are we doing, Federico? What is our connection to you?He laughed.“Have you still not read who is true to us?” I am now finding my soul mate, you, Alina, - he kissed her on the palm, since he could see everything even in the dark. The hand felt an object that was com
Francesca immediately realized that Alina was upset, although she tried to hide her condition from her family. It's good that the daughter was sleeping, she was surprisingly fine-tuned to Alina and her mood. Surprisingly, werewolves really felt the mood of others better. Moreover, although Alina tried, it was difficult to hide such a state. She was too angry, and her nerves had been naughty in recent days.Her assistant quickly organized fragrant tea, seated Alina and kept her company, offering to have tea and chat like a woman. Alina was glad to be distracted, especially since she asked about the trip, and about the conversation with her ex-husband. Francesca was sincerely worried about little Angelina and did not want to lose such a ward at all. Still, the rest of the werewolves had a reverent attitude towards alphas, especially girls. Alina calmly answered her questions, but the latter was clearly agitated:“And why did you come so upset, señora.” You don't have a face. If everythi
Outwardly, Alina was calm, but inside doubts began. They calmly sailed to the island, exchanging rare phrases, enjoying the beautiful weather and the bright sun that flooded everything around with light. It would seem - an idyll, but Alina did not let go of the worm of doubt.“And why did I offer him, that's because the curiosity of a woman. But I really want to understand who they are, these werewolves. And who else will tell me and show himself a werewolf? After all, you can’t ask a stranger, I definitely wouldn’t dare. If you have already got into the world of two-in-ones, you should understand who they are. But it could be him, Federico. He touched me, and more than once. And if I check, remove the smell, and it turns out not to be him? And Nikita has already found his true mate. So, Lord Severin, or what? That will be horror! So, don't think about it for now."Alina squinted at her companion, realizing that she was getting to know Federico more and more, and he no longer seemed s
Italy, Naples, estate of the Florio family“And why did you do it, girls?” Aurora, it was you who knocked out your sister! Nathan was really angry. - I clearly told you that you sit quietly and do not interfere anywhere until my arrival. And what do I learn from Olaf, you ask me? You, Aurora, with the help of your sister, who distracted the rest of the guard, escaped, and, going to the Council of Families, officially filed a complaint from the Severin clan against Alina Astakhova about the theft of blood and about the trial of the theft of the heiress. Did I understand correctly? After all, this was not even a personal complaint, but from our clan?Aurora lowered her eyes, ashamed of having acted so rashly, but after just a few seconds she looked up and, looking angrily, exclaimed:— Yes, she is a brazen and cunning thief. You were always on her side: “girls, help Alina get comfortable, I will be glad if you make friends, Aurora, be more flexible.” Why should I be good and flexible. S
Russia, Belgorod, the office of the head of the Severin clan“Come in, Leroy, make yourself comfortable,” the lord and nephew were gloomy and collected, which clearly indicated new problems, and they did not agree on a meeting in advance, “let’s not beat around the bush, just read it.”From the abrupt movement with which he pushed the text towards him, the head lawyer of the Severin clan and the uncle of the head of the clan, Leroy Falua, realized that the case was urgent, and delved into reading. After skimming through the first paragraph, he stopped in shock, reread the beginning more slowly and thoughtfully, continuing at the same speed until he had read it completely. He closed his eyes, calculating the information, in a minute he was ready for communication, deciding to clarify:- Is it a precise information? Can it not turn out that we are simply being lured out of the country at such a tense moment? Nathan, I don't understand how this could happen. I can't believe it, I just ca
The next day, Alina decided to talk to Veronika, whom she had not seen for almost a year, but she remembered as a wonderful person. Alina was still afraid to trust someone completely, but she could ask for advice. Yes, and Veronica can clarify the issue with a psychologist. Is it really that important, and who better to turn to in her situation. Alina herself thought that it was worth finding a human psychologist. And then these werewolves, as they found out about her alpha daughter, looked at her in a different way.And she also decided to ask that opinion about werewolves, truth, and in general this whole situation with marks. Her mark scared Alina very much at first: she felt marked, belonging to someone she did not yet know. The feeling that you no longer completely belong to yourself and that you can become someone's property, even without a special desire, did not inspire her. Yes, she was told that for the true Alina she would be the most precious creature, who would be loved,
Alina sighed, closing her eyes. How did she not take this moment into account, and did not forbid the master to talk about her daughter. He did not know that these girls, and indeed anyone in general, should not have been told about the baby once again. She opened her eyes, realizing that all three girls were sitting and looking at the master in surprise, as if they did not believe what he said. Alina immediately realized that she had seconds left until they sat in a stupor and did not take her seriously. She immediately got up and rushed out of the living room, feverishly remembering in which direction the owner of the estate and Senor Maggi had gone half an hour ago.Turning to the right, Alina heard the exclamation of Aurora, the more agile one, yelling at her to stop immediately. Yep, now! She rushed down the corridor, turned and, stopping next to a man who was clearly an employee of the house, asked him where the invited guest, Señor Magi, who she needed immediately. He pointed w
Her little girl felt her mother's mood and did not immediately come off Alina for the next two days. Her daughter turned out to be a feast for the eyes: a pretty, white angel, with slightly curly hair framing her head, and was very active, developing faster than those children that Alina knew from her world. Most likely, the double essence of the baby affected.Angelina was born in October, and she was only two months old, but the reflexes were like those of a four-month-old child. Alina had seen enough of the little ones, her younger sister had girls, both healthy, in terms of development they fit well into the standards and pleased her mother. Angelina was more mobile, had excellent reflexes, and ate for two in general, as Alina believed.The master's call brought Alina out of the state of a caring mother, reminding her that life does not stand still, and Florio's family urgently asks for a meeting. Alina remembered that the master had asked during the trip to the countess what day
