48 Birds Of A Feather

Tia.

Heading Diamond Corp was sudden and tedious, but I had to do it. I was the only person Luke trusted to allow to handle his business, and I understood why. Surrounded by the likes of Stacy, we had to be extra vigilant. I was the only one with a lot to lose if he got hurt. . Dealing with the board members was easy, but there were a lot of unfinished business and contracts to handle. It was as if Alpha Aesop stopped paying attention at a point. There was really no reason for him to do so, but he did anyway, and now there was a mountain of work to do, files to attend to, and I started hating the computer screen.

Luke was undergoing training for his takeover. He was already a trained alpha, but they wanted to sharpen his skills. He was training along with Caleb and Kirk I was glad he chose to keep Kirk as gamma in his ranks. The guy was an asset. Alpha Aesop had banned me from getting involved in military matters, and I was saddened by it. However, Luke still allowed me to help behind the scenes by running things by me and asking for my input, but my days of interrogating and torturing prisoners were over, and I missed my dream of being a garnma. I guess the goddess wanted me to be Luna, and here I was. Luke was yet to be sworn in, but I knew the time was approaching.

I was in my office when Alpha Aesop walked in with Monica unannounced. It was awkward, and I did not want to deal with him alone. I have never really had to deal with the man alone. Luke or Caleb was always there. Ever since the incident when Stacy tried to frame me and have me cast out, I have been wary of the man. I had not let it go, and I doubted I would. Somehow I suspected the man knew I was wary of him because he put in extra effort to make me comfortable, but I wasn’t a fool. The man was a sucker for his mate, so I needed to be on my guard. I could understand his relationship with Stacy; he would do anything for her, just like Luke would do anything for me. I think it was the bond thing. It turns hard men into softies where their mates are concerned. Luke was a very hard guy, stern and unapproachable. I have heard people gossip about us, about how they feel sorry for me that I have to deal with such a problematic guy, but Luke was a big Teddy with me, loving and caring, and he would do anything for me, so I would often smile about it. It was cool that I was the only one to experience Luke’s gentle side. I had even heard a woman wonder how I managed with him in bed. People couldn’t mind their business to save the world. I was at the grocery store, and she looked at my small stature and told her friend that she felt sorry for me. I was small, quite alright, but I could handle Luke fine. I could understand their concern. Of course, they will feel uncomfortable. I was five feet seven and a size six. On the other hand, Elisabeth was five nine and a size ten. She could handle a six-foot-five-inch man easier than I could in their heads. The thought of everything made me smile internally as I stood to greet my father-in-law and former alpha.
