Chapter 83

Dimitri:

I woke up to my phone buzzing, taking me off guard.

I rubbed the sleep from my eyes as I sat up, and I couldn’t help but frown when I saw it ringing, it was an unknown number. I sighed and answered, knowing that avoiding it wasn’t going to be leading to anywhere that was good anyway.

Normally, unknown numbers were secure lines, and if someone was using it, then. it was someone that we would have been associated with.

I put on my boxers before getting out of bed, careful not to wake Aurora before. putting the phone in my ear, knowing that whoever it was waited for a few seconds.

“You have three seconds to speak before I hang up.” I said, walking out toward the balcony as not to catch Aurora’s attention. The last thing that I wanted was for her to worry at an hour like this one, especially not after our long night.

You gave me a promise, and I am not going to lose everything that I had with you because you are having a fling with the woman that you hated.” She said, her tone cold. “She is my chosen mate, and if I chose to be with her, then it is not something that concerns you, Charlotte.” I said, and she scoffed. I looked back inside, my eyes catching sight of Aurora who was peacefully asleep on our bed, her heartbeat and breathing calm, letting me know that she didn’t wake up. My stomach churned, and something inside
