Lukrezia

The wedding was taking place in Galleria, my family stronghold and our biggest asset; it was a big old mansion of Victorian era. Long walls and high ceilings, beautiful marbled entry with big Staircase that led to the first floor, God I loved the place.

Galleria was also a place that held so much memories and old emotions, i looked at it from where i was standing and nothing much had changed in the past three years i had been absent, Walking to the back of the dancing ball where the dinner was going to take place i saw the stuff.

I decided not to bother them with me and went back to the small villa we, my brothers and were staying, the place smelt of old wood, roses and fresh baked chocolate muffins, i realized that Adi Beckley, my best friend since forever now my brother fiancé is up.

I walked in and the sent came in my nose, I couldn't resist her sweets, she owned a couple of bakeries and restaurants, her family had a thing for food, they were healers of the pack and her dad, Justin Beckley was my father beta and his best friend.

She heard me coming and she lifted her head up, her dazzling blue eyes and her soft smile looking at me. I smiled back at her and she came for a hug. "Adi I am fine, i do not need you to worry about 'Me'."

Her eyes were filled with concern, she looked at me and she knows how I react to be suffocated she held my hand and her eyes soft and brilliant.

"just say the words and we leave, I already have tickets” on the hold", I laughed as I held her hand around my neck, she turned and we walked to the kitchen Iceland, she was the sister I never had, having only brothers, Adi was my soul and my crime partner, when she turned out to be my eldest brother mate I was over the moon, she was going to be officially a part of the family.

Everyone in the family and the pack adored the beautiful blond and my brother was taken by her since day one.

I remember we were kids, as my father had a disturbed relationship with my granddad, we did not grow up in the pack our first years of childhood, we came at the age of six years old, I remember walking in Galleria, the place was breathtaking, like a castle from a fantasy.

I remember Justin and his wife Olivia with their daughter Adilinda, standing in her hand a rose, the place stayed quiet as the tense between my grandfather presence and my father was over the roof but the feisty blond looked at me and walked pass the cold war between the alphas and gave me the red rose "I picked it for you, will you be my friend princess?" she said her voice so ever calm and soothing, I looked at her taking the rose, I looked at myself and i had nothing on but a bobby pin decorated with a gold rose on it, I took it of my hair and handed it to her, " my name is Lukrezia, what is your name ?" she smiled as i handed her the bobby pin and putted in her hair "Adilinda, but you can call me Adi" taking my hand and wanting to showing me the place everyone smiled and my father even broke a small smile to us and motioned to my twin to follow us, since that day her and I were glued to each other.

We sat there I peeked outside the window, Galleria stood mere kilometers far from the small villa, something in my heart ached and for some reason I just wanted to sleep.

One thing to know after what happened three years ago i find it hard to cry.

The bundle of emotions that overtook me was getting out of hand, I excused myself to my room, I needed a nap to forget, as I was getting up a voice came from behind me “you nap only when you are sad” I turned around and stood behind me a somewhat sleepy Pietro, wearing shorts and topless showing his broads shoulders and chiselling chest, I felt the she wolf behind me excited to look at her mate and a flicker of silver of envy over took me.

“ I just want to want to take a few hours before the wedding start that’s all” I stood heading to my room and as I walked by him I felt his hand holding mine “ you sure you okay princess ?” he said looking in my eyes and I could see the same emotion I saw earlier in my uncles eyes. “I am fine, don’t worry” I replied to him.

I will not let a certain man ruin my day, no matter what.

The answer did not do much to him, he did not believe me but he said nothing, looking me in the eyes as if he was scanning them for something the he said his voice calm and soothing “just say the word and he is gone okay?” now that was a bit much, I was getting tired of everyone concern but I did not reply I knew it will do close to nothing to the future alpha.

I nodded and he gave me a kiss on my forehead and let go of my hand, I walked to my room leaving them alone for their privacy.

Did dad say something?

    Adrian It's been almost three hours since she fainted in Hunter's arms. three hours of waiting for her to open her eyes, to talk to me, and to see her. Three hours of glaring at Atlas and him glaring back at me. Whatever is going on between these two, I do not like, not one fucking bit. they are too close to my liking. Add to the matter that she is close to his kids. Our offspring are not warm to strangers. We make sure they understand that they cannot protect themselves. But they were way closer to her than normal. Even if Luka was a friend, why would they be that close to her? my irritation peaked, however, when Hunter kicked us out of her room and allowed only the doctor to check on her. "This is your fault," Atlas says between gritted teeth, "if you just kept fucking quiet, she would not be here" "she gets attacked on your fucking territory and somehow you find a way to blame me?" I spit out. both pf our betas at our sides, ready to fight if needs be. He is about to say

I took a shower and scanned the marks I had now on my arms, I called the one person I knew who was an expert with similar attacks, my grandfather. being that he was a previous hunter himself, he had a history of supernatural attacks, he asked me to take pictures and give him an up to date follow-ups in case something happened, and I gladly obliged. I took a shower and changed into one of my light outfits, today it was a bit cold, so I wore a simple baby pink dress, knee length with a soft beige cardigan on top; I was drying my head when a message popped on my phone, Adrian: Meet me in ten, next to the oak tree behind the river. I cursed myself for being too damn stubborn, I should have changed the old number when I had the chance; why does he have my old number anyway?

    Lukrezia I felt him when he came, as pathetic as it was, my heart skipped a bit, damn you. I was hiding in the family wing the whole day, avoiding meeting him or crossing paths, atlas was understanding and said nothing, I played with the twins and they had all day to tell me all sorts of things, their games, kindergarten play dates, and all the toddlers babbling in the world. By the time dinner rolled around, I had had enough of hiding, I got dressed, a knee-long corset dress, with bell sleeves, and my medium-high heel, I was doing to that dinner. Maybe out of spite or blissful ignorance, I went with my favorite perfume, think something peachy with a hint of floral, and walked to the dining room, as I approached the door, I heard the alpha rather interesting conversation, «... and a dangerous matter that is, all I am saying, if bloodline has reminded within our community, none of this would have happened» To say I felt sick to my stomach of what I heard was an understatement, « an

In all her messy minds, her brother and twin looked at her and grabbed her hand, holding it, «it will be fine, have no worries, if he says anything, I will make sure he will regret it» Those words were assuring, but the effect they had was not as strong as she had hoped for, Deep down she was relieved her parents and brothers knew, but facing her mate was something she was not prepared for.

I stood watching over how peaceful this place was, and how life would have been ideal if my parents were still alive, how different it would have been for me.
