Alpha Luka And His Human Mate
Chapter 31
Victoria's pov
I woke up to an empty bed, the spot beside me no longer had Luka. I felt slightly disappointed, but then the events of last night came rushing back. That's when it hit me. He must've gone to get the work done.
I stretched the sleepiness from my body, checking the time to see that it was 11 am. How did I manage to sleep that long?
I quickly brushed my teeth and put on suitable clothing, not even bothering to fix my hair as I ventured off to the kitchen for breakfast--I mean lunch.
"Well look who decided to get up today" Lincoln snickered as I entered the living room.
"Oh shut u-" I stopped mid sentence, when three unfamiliar faces turned to face me.
"Well hello" I greeted politely, attempting to fix my hair. Why did I choose today to look like crap?
"You're right Lincoln, she does look like our Ella" The lady said as she approached me.
"Your Ella?" I asked, feeling confused.
"These are Ella's parents, and this is her little brother, Mark" Lincoln introduced, pointing at the young man beside him.
"Younger brother," Mark corrected. "I'm not little."
I giggled at his cute effort to seem older. He didn't look a day past 15.
"It's nice to meet you." I offered shyly, shaking their hands. "I'm sorry I had no clue you guys were here. I would've made myself more presentable" I muttered, slightly embarrassed.
I assumed they were the visitors that Luka had yesterday. It made me wonder why he didn't tell me.
"That's okay love. We don't mind, we're in your home after all" The woman said, taking me by surprise.
"You know?" Wasn't it awkward to know that their dead daughter's mate has another mate that looks like her?
"Of course we do. Luka filled us in yesterday. That's what he invited us over to talk to us about. We were supposed to meet you yesterday, but it got late so we had to leave. By the way, I'm Rose and this is my mate, Edward"
Edward shook my hand firmly, but I could see the longing in his eyes. I must've brought back so many memories for him.
"I'm sorry" I blurted out before I could stop myself. Great, now they're gonna think I pity them.
"You don't have to be sorry dear. We've come to terms with everything. Luka is so much like a son to us, so we're just happy that he's happy" Edward assured, giving me a side hug.
They seemed like such nice people. How do they do it? The wound must still be so fresh, yet they seemed so joyful. I lost my aunt years ago, and it was still such a touchy subject for me.
Mark took my hand, kissing it gently with charm filled eyes. "It's my pleasure, ma lady" He cooed, while I stifled an awe. Just as I was about to answer, Mama bear appeared from the kitchen, holding cookies in her hand.
"Victoria! You're up, lovely. I see you've already met Rose and Edward." She said as she gave me a cookie. "I'm sure Mark has something he wants to say to you."
