Alpha Luka And His Human Mate

Chapter 11

Victoria's pov

I woke up extra early so that I could leave for work before anyone else woke up. Of course, I'll need to get a ride from Luka given that I don't have my car yet, and I would definitely get lost in the woods. But I decided to let him get some more rest first.

After applying my lipstick and tightening my hair, I made my way downstairs to grab something to eat. I tiptoed passed Luka's room as I went to get breakfast before waking him.

It took me a while to actually find the kitchen.. The house was too big for its own good. To my surprise, everyone except Luka and Caleb was already in the kitchen eating and talking.

Great.

"Good morning" I greeted, expecting a little manners, but of course, no one answered.

"Not too many at once please" I muttered sarcastically and actually received a chuckle from Lincoln.

I got myself a sandwich and went to the farthest end of the kitchen to eat alone. I noticed Twinkle's bowl was full and I thought it must've been Luka who filled it.

The scraping of a chair caught my attention and I noticed Lincoln was making his way towards me. For more tormenting I suppose.

"Hi" he said with a small smile. Okayyyy?

"What's the prank? I'm really not up for any games." I retorted unamusingly. He held up his hands in mock surrender with a light chuckle.

"I'm not messing with you" He looked genuine, but I still didn't believe him. "I'm just trying to make amends. I was being an ass last night"

I was silent for a moment but decided to answer.

"Yes you were " I muttered and he laughed loudly. It was contagious and I found myself chuckling too.

He was silent for a while before he spoke again. "I'm sorry for the way I acted last night. It's just that we don't have pleasant history with outsiders and it's literally in my nature to be overprotective of my people" I nodded in understanding.

" I get it. I would too if I had so many people I hold dare to me. But I assure you, I mean you and your family no harm, I'm just here until my house is fixed. I may even leave earlier"

"Well I hope we can put this behind us and start over. Caleb gave us a proper lecture about being kind to you. He said you're fun, I'll like to see that for myself"

I should really thank Caleb for sticking up for me.

"And don't worry about those two, they'll come around. But that protective gene runs through their veins more prominent than mine, so it might be harder" He continued while I finished my coffee.

I simply nodded as I checked the time, seeing that it was almost time to leave. It was a Saturday morning, which meant I'd get to leave work early today, so I planned to go spend some time at the diner after.

"I'll get going now" I announced with a grunt as I stood up.
