Chapter 5

"That's enough for today. Training is over," said Leonardo furiously, approaching us, "tomorrow you will fight me," Leonardo said as he stood in the between Luciano and me.

"I don't think it's necessary, Leonardo. Luciano is an excellent opponent, and I'm sure I will learn a lot from him," I said as I moved closer and chArturoged him. He wasn't going to let me intimidate by the big bad alpha, even less for being my mate.

“Don't chArturoge me, Aurora, and remember I am your alpha; you speak to me using my title with respect," he said thoughtfully.

"What's going on here," my brother said as he approached.

"Nothing, I think it's been a misunderstanding," Luciano said.

"Nothing Rocco, our alpha is being a bit impulsive," I said, smiling at him.

"Aurora, don't forget that Leonardo is our alpha, and he deserves respect," Rocco said.

"Sorry, alpha, I take my leave," I said as I stepped back with Luciano.

"I accept your apology, but don't let it happen again," Leonardo said as he threw me a sarcastic smile, chArturoging me.

I growled and walked away as fast as I could, the nervous of this cocky alpha and to think, That's my mate, why do you hate me so much, Moon Goddess, to pair me with such an idiot.

"Aurora, wait for me. I wanted to ask you if you know some places you could recommend, I don't know the area, and I would like to go eat," Luciano said.

"I will be free today; if you want, I can show you around our territory later," I said, being nice since he didn't know anyone else and he seemed very nice to me.

"I like the idea at 6 o'clock is fine with you; I'll see you in the common area of the packhouse; I have a guest room," said Luciano.

"Sure, no problem," I said, smiling.

After taking a bath and changing, I headed to the dining room to eat with Georgia, but she was still not there when I arrived. I took my plate and sat down to eat.

I am stunned by Leonardo's reaction when I was near Luciano.

He was like crazy wanting to mark his territory or his prey in the morning, but my bracelet is supposed to be masking my scent; I don't know why he reacts this way.

“Try to relax and not think about it anymore,” I thought, but when I smelled chocolate and coconut, I knew he was close. I didn't even want to see him, but it will be quite chArturoging to avoid him in his house.

"You are just the person I was looking for. I need to talk to you," Leonardo said.

"What a big deal, me, the big bad alpha wants to talk to me, "I said, smiling sarcastically.

"Wow, that smile is pretty intimidating. But I'll pretend not to notice it," said Leonardo as he continued to eat his plate.

"I need some details from you for the new women's training I plan to plan with you."

"I don't think I am qualified for such an important task, alpha. Maybe Georgia could help you with that, she knows more about the women in your pack than I do, and besides, I already have plans," I said, avoiding him.

" This is more important," he said seriously.

"I can't. I'm sorry," I said, ignoring him.

"I think you misunderstood me; it's not a suggestion, Aurora," he said as he looked at me and turned my face with his hand.

"Neither are my plans. I promised to help someone, and I plan to keep my promise. We can discuss this tomorrow at training" I pushed my chair back and walked away from the table, ignoring his angry look for avoiding him.

Does Leonardo think that he can order him around whenever he feels like it? He is a very wrong alpha or mate, and he is not going to boss me around.

I looked at my watch, and it was exactly 6 o'clock. I was ready for my walk with Luciano, and I chose blue jeans and a red sleeveless blouse. I left my hair loose with my curls in the air, as I like it.

As I walked down the stairs towards the common area, I could see Luciano, who was already waiting for me.

"Hey, Aurora, ready to go."

"Sure, we can take my car if you like," I said.

"I thought it would be more comfortable to go in mine, so I can get to know the area better if I drive," said Luciano.

"No problem, it's fine, let's go," I replied, and we left.

As we left, I felt a look and a chill; I looked back and saw Leonardo standing on the stairs looking at us; I didn't think anything of it and kept walking with Luciano.

"Something is wrong with you, Leonardo, and you look like you want to kill someone with your eyes; are you jealous, big brother," said Georgia at Leonardo sarcastically.

"You're crazy. Why would I be jealous? I still haven't found my mate, and there's no one around who's my match, don't be silly," he said, furious, and walked off towards his office.

"What happened? I thought I saw Leonardo pretty upset," said Rocco.

"I think my little brother has found the stone in his shoe," said Georgia laughing.

"I don't understand what you're talking about, Georgia, but I think it's pretty funny to see him like that."

I walked angrily to my office, slamming the door hard. I don't understand why I felt helpless; when I saw Aurora leaving with Luciano, she is not my mate; I would realize it when I was with her.

But I feel an attraction towards her, which I can't explain. It makes me mad that another man is with her, whether Luciano, Dominik, or whoever.

I have to control myself, and no one can know I'm having feelings for her. Still, I can't help it, she's gorgeous, and the way she fights, she has unimaginable strength and agility.

Now I understand why she is considered a prodigy. It would be an honor to have her as my mate, my moon, if she wasn't so stubborn, angry, tantrum, and not very condescending.

But who am I kidding? That's what I love most about her, and she doesn't get bullied easily and gives her opinion no matter what.

I can't think about her right now, I have too much work to do, I'll deal with her tomorrow, and she'll listen to me.

I took my cell phone and dialed my father's number.

"Dad, I wanted to inform you of the details of the meeting of alphas and Lunas. Everything is ready. I sent you the list of attendees, so you know who of your friends will come," I said to my father, the ex-alpha Leandro.

"Thank you, son, and I am looking forward to this meeting. I haven't seen my friends for a long time, and in fact, I was about to contact Arturo to tell him," my father replied.

"Perfect then, I'll leave you to continue with your plans. I still have a lot of work to do," I answered.

"By the way, son, you already had a chance to see Aurora; she became a great warrior, isn't there something you have to tell me," said my father.

"If you had the crazy idea that she was my mate. I am sorry to disappoint you. she is not. I do see that she has great qualities as a warrior, and which did not impress me. After knowing her character of bossy and temper woman," I said sarcastically.

"I see you two have already met, and you are very similar in that from what I see, you would have been a perfect couple, what a pity' said my father.

"It's the ok, son. I'll leave you. I won't keep you any longer".

I laughed a lot, knowing about my son's meeting with Aurora. The truth is that they are more alike than they think, but who am I to chArturoge our goddess? I opened my email and was checking the list of the attendees to the meeting.

When one name, particularly, caught my attention, Alpha Dario of the Highland Clan, I couldn't help the disgust I felt when I saw that name on the list. I took my cell phone and dialed the number of my ex-beta Arturo Aurora's father.

"Arturo, how are you," I said seriously.

"Boring Leandro, since we turned in our posts, this retirement thing is pretty boring," said Arturo.
