Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond

Chapter 0527

"I don't think Cleo expected to come either Mother." Alpha Than bends down to pick up the blanket, before placing it back over my shoulders.

"I just wasn't expecting a visitor so early. I am Luna Medea.." She places a very well manicured hand out to me, I notice expensive rings staked up on her wedding finger. "Cleo.." I take it, shaking her hand.

"A pleasure. We are actually related.."

"Yes Alpha Than had told me.."

"Than, we don't use titles in this household." She smiles out at me, showing her teeth that were perfectly aligned....not one showing any hint of red lipstick which was on her lips.

This woman was a professional Luna, and I was feeling inadequate standing before her.

"What can we do for you?" She gestures for me to sit back down, where she now joins me at the table.

"Well, I was just passing by. Than and I met recently..." I stop myself from going further.

Do I mention his offering, has he even told her. Does she even know that I am pregnant.

She still classed herself as the luna, which means she still was hands on with parts of running the pack.

But how much exactly I wasn't quite sure just yet.

"Are you not well?" The back of her hand moves to my forehead where she checks my temperature.

"Cleo has been sleeping in her car all night, so I've offered her a place to stay for a few days." Alpha Than responds on my behalf.
