Call me Alpha (Aiden and Ashira) novel Chapter 19

"Do you think Aiden changed his mind?"

Seth's question is the same as mine. I don't know what happened but Aiden didn't talked about it earlier and all I know was that I can't meddle with his order as the Alpha. We agreed on that point already so I'm not sure what's happening right now.

But why is Titus thanking me if he hadn't receive a great news? Which I can think none other than his position gave back to him.

"Can you call him again?" I asked Seth and sat on a chair beside where he was seated. He nodded then shifted to pick his phone in his pocket and dialed a number. I can sense his breathing stopped when the first ring was heard.

"It's ringing." he said and handed me the phone. I took it quickly and put it on my ears. I'm not sure what I'll say but it's clear that I want information from him. My hand is slightly trembling as I wait for him to answer.

A few rings and Titus picked up the call.

"Hey again."

"Titus, it's me." I said in almost a whisper. I'm afraid Aurea can hear our conversation and I needed to be careful with my words.

"Luna." he greeted, acknowledging me at last as his Alpha's mate. I felt a warm hand caress my heart from the regard. It's what being an Alpha's mate is. Everything about the pack starts to embrace me and I always feel glad and warm from it.

"Yes. Uh, what happened? Seth was saying something." I regret the words that I said. I should have pretended I am involve with the news even though I'm confused what part is it.

I put my palm on my head and rubbed on my hair. Damn. I should clear my head or else I'll blow things up myself.

"Thank you so much, Luna. Beta Nick just told me I can have a few more months to keep my position. I knew you can convince Alpha Aiden and really grateful for that."

Seth hissed but also sighed in relief when he heard what Titus said. Me on the other hand was still confused as I absorbed the news from him.

Aiden didn't tell me he considered my suggestion but now that he did, I'm happy. I'm pleased that he let my words through to his rough barriers though I don't know what pushed him to change his mind.

I sighed silently and smiled at Seth who grins at me as well. Finally, we can breathe fresh air without worrying about what to happen next. I can feel the relief that embraced us both at the moment.

"Oh, you're talking about that. I'm glad I could help." I pretended I forgot about our deal, trying to hide the fact that I'm clueless about any of Aiden's plans. It would be awful for a Luna to be unaware of pack happenings though I was okay with it. If Aiden didn't want me in, I won't push myself deeper.

Seth smirked with how I handled my first mistake. I felt light, like a stack of brick was taken off my chest. I wanted to call Aiden and thank him for changing his mind but that would be absurd because I'm keeping this a secret from him.

"I apologize for everything I said yesterday, my Luna." Titus' voice was sincere and I immediately forgave him in my head. I already did even without an apology from him.

"That doesn't matter anymore, Titus. But I expect you to do your side of the deal."

"Of course! I won't say a word. And if you have questions about your, uh, abnormality, you are welcome to visit anytime."

I saw Seth nodded with his words, he probably have his own set of questions about stealer like I do. I'm actually eager to know more.

"Well, can we come over now?"

Seth turned his head to me and his expression was taken aback. I know he's shocked that I wanted to come over but it's better to know more earlier than later.

'Ash, today's the ceremony.'

I rolled my eyes at him. He always reminds me that and I'm grateful but right now I needed to have answers.

'I have nothing to do now. We have hours to wait for the ceremony.'

'But why so sudden? Can't it wait for tomorrow?'

'I'm planning to tell Aiden about it after the ceremony. I needed to know more to prepare for his questions.'

He grimaced but nodded. I knew what he thinks. What's the point of helping Titus if I'll end up confessing to Aiden, right? But I realized one thing when Aiden and I talked at the lake.

That whatever happens, we'll talk things over.

So Titus got lucky for his preposition. But that also helped me to come out of my shell, and also see another side of Aiden.

He can be mad at me and I can be to him, but we always want to be next to each other. Even if he hates me or I hated him, the resolve would still be the same.

"Right now? But I thought you will be introduced to the pack tonight."

"I am. But an hour or two won't hurt. I still have time."

Titus paused for a short while and I looked to Seth with questioning eyes.

'Why is he hesitating?'

Seth shrugged his shoulder before I heard Titus spoke again.

"If you wish, Luna. I'll wait for you at my home?"

I beamed and nodded even if he can't see my reaction.

"Yes, we'll be there now."

The call has ended and I quickly stood up after giving Seth's phone back. He followed me as we stormed out of the room.

"I wonder where Titus can found information about stealers." Seth said as we walked down the stairs.

"Ssshh!" I said and looked around. I widened my eyes at him and he utter a mute 'sorry'. I'm avoiding Au to hear us because another mind that knows means another explanation and persuasions. Seth is fine right now and it's best that Aiden will know next.

"Do you want us to take a car or run at the woods?"
