HER NEW HOME.

{For this chapter listen to Lovely by Billie Eilish}

It took them two hours to arrive at Midnight pack. She was totally stunned and amazed by all the buildings and structures she saw in the pack. It was absolutely impressive. It took them an extra hour to arrive at the pack house. The alpha's house is referred to as the pack house.

Getting to the pack house, Alessia was absolutely blown away by what she saw. It left her even more stunned than before. It was like she couldn't believe her eyes, she was looking at a castle. Imagine a majestic fortress towering high above the surrounding landscape, its grand walls adorned with intricate carvings and embellishments. The castle's turrets reach towards the sky, creating a picturesque silhouette against the horizon. As she stepped inside, she was greeted by opulent halls filled with rich tapestries, glistening chandeliers, and ornate furniture. The castle's history whispers through every stone, transporting you to a time of knights, royalty, and enchantment.

Dylan's gamma had sent word out to the beta Adrian Amory who was managing the affairs of the pack in Dylan's absence that their alpha was coming back to the pack with his mate. Adrian informed the elders, all staffs in the pack house, Dylan's parents and the pack at large. So when they arrived, the workers or staffs were already gathered in anticipation. They lined up in a neat row, their uniforms crisp and their expressions eager. The air was filled with a sense of excitement and respect as they await the arrival of the alpha and Luna. The sun casts a warm glow on the castle courtyard, highlighting the grandeur of the architecture.

Suddenly, the sound of approaching footsteps echoes through the courtyard. The alpha and Luna gracefully make their entrance, exuding an aura of power and grace. The workers bow respectfully as they pass, acknowledging their presence.

With utmost care, the workers begin the task of taking Alessia's belongings up to her room. Each item is handled delicately, as if it were a precious treasure. The workers move swiftly, ensuring that the Luna's room is prepared to her liking, with attention to every detail, so as not to offend their alpha.

Throughout the scene, there is a sense of reverence and dedication from the workers, as they carry out their duties with precision and efficiency. It's a testament to the respect and admiration they hold for the alpha and Luna. Well their alpha because they were yet to know their Luna.

"Alright, everyone, you can now return to your duty post" Dylan dismissed them. Alessia smiled at them. Then in unison, the workers bowed deeply again, their movements synchronized as if they were part of a well-rehearsed dance. And they left.
As they left, Dylan was ready to head upstairs with Alessia. But just as he was about to turn, he noticed something unexpected. The elders, his extended family, and his brother Aiden came down to greet him and Alessia. But here's the twist: there wasn't exactly a friendly history between them. They had a strained relationship, and it was clear that they weren't exactly thrilled to see each other. Despite their feigned smiles, there was an underlying tension in the air, as if they were trying to taunt Dylan in some way. It was a scene filled with mixed emotions, where Dylan had to navigate through the complexities of family dynamics. Quite a challenging situation, to say the least.

"Adrian informed us that you'll be back today with your mate". Aiden said with a beautiful but fake smile on his face. Aiden is indeed good-looking, but perhaps not as strikingly attractive as Dylan. Aiden has his own unique charm and features that set him apart. He has a strong jawline, piercing eyes, or a contagious smile. While the alpha may have that undeniable magnetism, Aiden has his own appeal that draws people in. 'Seems like good looks runs in the family' Alessia said to herself. Alessia greeted them with a  beautiful and charming smile on her face although she could feel that Dylan wasn't fond of this people before her.
When Aiden laid eyes on her, he was absolutely blown away. He couldn't help but be captivated by her beauty, charm, and undeniable sexiness. It was like time stood still as he took in every detail. The room seemed to fade away. The air was filled with a mix of anticipation and desire. Aiden's heart raced, and he felt a rush of emotions coursing through him. It was a moment that would forever be etched in his memory, a scene filled with intense attraction and a hint of something more. Lust? Yes that should be it. 'How did Dylan's mate turn out to be incredibly beautiful?' Aiden questioned himself. They had all believed that Dylan's mate would be unattractive and really ugly. But there she was with a face of an angel and body of a goddess.
