Chapter 3: ∞ T H R E E ∞

"Yeah?"

"Come on, is there somewhere quiet we can go?"

"Yeah, I'll show you." She held out her hand, and he took it, letting her lead him to the edge of the pack house property. There, she let go of his hand, turned to him and winked. "Try and keep up."

Then, she was a blur, darting between trees and speeding forward. Cassius shook his head, amused, and followed behind her, till they stopped in front of her home. She smiled at him. "We're home."

Elizaveta took a seat on the front steps and patted the space beside her. Cassius sat and took a deep breath. Sensing his nervous-ness, Elizaveta took his hand and covered it with her own. "So, uhm, I don't know how to say this."

"Spit it out darling."

"My parents passed away years ago, and the only reason I haven't left, is because I've been looking for my mate. The only reason I'm Beta, is because my father was, that's how our pack works, the new Alpha doesn't get to choose his Beta, it has to be the offspring of the previous Beta. I've been wanting to leave Red Moon for so long, and you can't leave unless you have a valid reason, and now I do. I can leave, and stay with you, if you'll have me?"

"Of course you can stay here, дорогой." (trans: darling) Elizaveta leaned forward and pressed a kiss to his cheek, laying her head on his shoulder. "You don't even have to ask, and I'm glad you are. That way, I don't have to leave Sanguinem Luna, and my family."

"Thank you."

"You don't have to thank me. You're my mate, I'd do anything for you." The girl responded.

"And I, you."

The pair just sat there for a while, staring into the forest. Their supernatural hearing picking up the laughs and conversations happening at the pack house a few kilometers away. "Eliza, do you live here alone?"

"Luka and I live here. Mama and Papa live in the pack house as Alpha and Luna, but they'll be moving to another home because Nikolai and his mate Lyanna will be taking their place tomorrow, Nikolai used to live with us, but once he found Lyanna, he moved. Luka will probably move out, as Beta's get their own homes with their mates."

"You seem very sure that he's going to be the Beta." Cassius mused.

"Who else would it be? Our Beta's do not descend through their bloodlines, they are chosen. And Luka is the Alpha's second-born son, and the new Alpha's brother, who better?"

"You, perhaps?"

"Me?" Elizaveta laughed a little. "I might be the daughter of the Alpha, but I am a girl. And there are people who would object to having a female hold that much power and control in our pack."

"But they aren't the one who pick, it's your brother. He might choose you as Gamma over someone who isn't even his actual blood."

"Maybe. I would certainly like it."

Soon enough, the sun set and the sky was darkening slowly. The pair were still sat on the steps outside, Cassius leaning against the pillars, and Elizaveta with her head back on the wooden floors, looking up at the sky.

Someone walked out of the trees and towards the house. The familiar blue-green hair was recognizable from miles away. "ELIZA!" He yelled.

"WHAT?" She screamed back, sitting up and looking over at her brother.

"Hi." He grinned as he stood near her now. She scowled and flipped him off before laying back down. Cassius grinned at her antics. Luka looked over at the brunet and nodded his head before walking past them and into the house.

"You look tired, sweetheart."

"I'm not tired." She replied, before yawning. "Ok, maybe I am." She stood and held out a hand for her mate to grab, and once he did, she pulled him up.

"As much as I would love to spend more time with you, I have to get back to the guest house, where the rest of my pack will be waiting. They will want to know if I've found a mate, although I don't think they'll believe me if I say that the Alpha's lovely daughter is she."

"Tell them, and I'll come find you tomorrow at the pack house for breakfast, and show them." She leaned up and kissed his cheek. "Goodnight, Cassius, I'll see you tomorrow."

"'Night Eliza."
