Unexpected Mate: The Cruel Alpha’s Little Wolf Chapter 83
The following morning... The Blackwood Estate had already returned to its usual rhythm. The silver ribbons had been taken down. The last of the flower arrangements were being carried away by the servants. Only a few white lilies remained in the entrance hall, their fragrance a quiet reminder of yesterday's celebration. For a brief moment, I found myself smiling. It had been everything Aurelia had hoped for. Perhaps... Even more. "Luna?" I turned to find one of the junior attendants waiting patiently beside the staircase. "The administrative block has prepared today's files." I nodded. "Thank you." It felt strangely comforting to hear those words again. There was work to be done. As I crossed the courtyard toward the administrative block, I noticed the estate slowly coming alive around me. Guards changed shifts at the main gate. Servants carried baskets of fresh produce toward the kitchens. Several gardeners were already replacing flowers that had

The celebration lingered long after the last slice of cake had been served. Children's laughter gradually faded as one family after another made their way toward the front of the estate. Servants stood by the entrance, thanking each guest as cars rolled slowly down the long driveway and disappeared beyond the gates. The silver and white ribbons still fluttered gently in the evening breeze. Fresh flowers lined the pathways exactly as they had that morning, though now a few petals had scattered across the stone paths, evidence of a day well spent. I stood on the front steps beside Kael, watching the final guests prepare to leave. Lily waved enthusiastically through the open car window. "Bye, Aurelia!" "Bye!" Aurelia waved both hands so vigorously I was half-afraid she'd lose her balance. "You have to come over again!" "I will!" The car pulled away, disappearing through the gates. For a few moments... None of us spoke. The estate, so full of life only minutes ago, seemed t

The afternoon slipped by more quickly than I expected. Laughter drifted across the gardens. Children darted between the games, their excitement never seeming to fade. The drawing competition ended in a spirited debate over whose wolf had the fluffiest tail. No one appeared particularly interested in deciding a winner. In the end... Every child declared themselves victorious. As the sun began its slow descent, the musicians softened their melodies. Almost as if on cue, Miss Agatha appeared beside me. "Luna." I turned. "I believe it's time." I followed her gaze. The enormous birthday cake was being wheeled toward the center of the gardens. Conversation gradually quieted. One by one, the children gathered around. Their parents followed soon after. Seven silver candles crowned the top of the cake, their tiny flames dancing gently in the evening breeze. Aurelia stopped in front of it. For perhaps the first time all day... She was completely still. Miss Agatha lit the f

"I think time moves slower on birthdays." Aurelia said with a sigh. "I believe you may be right," I said. She looked at me hopefully. "Can we wait outside?" Kael folded his napkin neatly before setting it beside his plate. "The guests will come to us." "But..." She hesitated. "I want to be the first one to see Lily." A faint smile touched Kael's lips. "I'm sure Lily feels the same way." That seemed to satisfy her. At least... For the next thirty seconds. A knock sounded at the dining room door. One of the footmen inclined his head respectfully. "My Alpha." "The first guests have begun to arrive." Aurelia was out of her chair before the sentence had even finished. "They're here!" She caught herself almost immediately. Turning back toward us with exaggerated patience. "I'm walking." She took one perfectly dignified step. Then another. The moment we reached the hallway... She broke into a run. I laughed despite myself. Her white bir

Together we stepped out into the corridor. Aurelia insisted on walking between us. She held my hand with one of hers. Kael's with the other. "I've decided something," she announced. "Oh?" Kael glanced down at her. She nodded solemnly. "Nobody's allowed to be serious today." A smile tugged at my lips. "Nobody?" "Nobody." She looked up at Kael. "Especially Daddy." "I see." "You always do the serious face." "I do?" She demonstrated it immediately, pressing her lips together and staring straight ahead. I bit the inside of my cheek to keep from laughing. It was... Uncomfortably accurate. Kael looked at her for a moment before one corner of his mouth lifted. "Is that better?" She studied him critically. "A little." "A little?" "Mhm." "You need to smile more." I glanced at him. "I'm inclined to agree." His eyes met mine briefly. "So the vote is two against one." "It is," I admitted. Aurelia beamed. "We win." He gave a resign

I woke to laughter. Not the quiet murmur of servants beginning another day. Not the distant footsteps that usually echoed through the manor before sunrise. Laughter. Bright and excited. Unmistakably Aurelia's. For a moment, I simply lay there, smiling to myself. Today. She was seven. A gentle knock sounded against my door. "Luna?" "Come in." Miss Agatha stepped inside carrying a garment bag draped carefully over one arm. "Good morning." "Good morning." She smiled. "I hope you slept well." "I did." "Excellent." She laid the garment bag across the chaise near the window before turning back to me. "I believe someone has been asking whether you're awake every fifteen minutes." I laughed. "Has she really?" "I'm afraid so." "Twice she attempted to come upstairs herself." "And twice she was persuaded that waking the Luna before sunrise was perhaps not the best birthday gift." I covered a smile with my hand. "That sounds like Aurelia." "

I thought long and hard about the marriage proposal. For days, I had turned it over in my mind from every possible angle. The council. The pack. The responsibilities that would come with becoming Luna. None of it was a decision to be taken lightly. The truth was, I wasn't walking into t

The next morning, the estate was unusually quiet. Not peaceful quiet. The kind of quiet that came after people had spent days discussing something they weren't supposed to discuss. I hated it. More importantly, I hated not knowing what was happening. I sat on the edge of my bed for a mome

I woke up before sunrise. For a moment, I didn’t remember where I was. Then I felt it. A small weight against my arm. Aurelia. She was still asleep, her fingers loosely wrapped around mine as though she had refused to let go through the night. Her breathing was steadier now. The fever

The next morning, I woke up with a sense of purpose. For the first time since the ceremony, I had a plan. It wasn't much of one, but it was enough. I was going to find somewhere else to stay. The room Agatha had given me was comfortable. Too comfortable. The soft mattress, the warm blankets
