Luka (Moroz Brothers Book 2) [COMPELTE]

VIOLET 12

I watched my mate walk off with his brothers, I was left there waiting in the front, with Patty as she needed to sit down, and that we weren't really needed in the fitting rooms. "Are you feeling ok?" I asked her and she nodded and rubbed at her belly before smiling and patting the side of her.

"I heard you already got a dress and it's pretty." She told me and I smiled and nodded. "I am not one for dressing up and weddings, my parents didn't like human traditions too much. They've passed on so I like to respect their memory by not doing anything they wouldn't like... but I am glad that Luka is doing this for you."

"Doing it for me? You mean he doesn't want to be married?"

"Well, Vlad didn't care one way or the other, so I guess Luka is the same way. I know... if he is anything like Vlad, he is going to do anything you want to do just to make you happy. The Moroz brothers are like that... even Ivan and Dimitri if no one is watching."

"I have heard stories of Ivan..." I told her and she smiled softly and reached to pat my hand.

"You think he is an ass, I know. I thought the same thing. It's just his outer persona. He... he's not so bad when you get him into a serious situation. He is protective, he loves hard... even if he doesn't show it too much." Patty told me and I just nodded slowly and looked the way I could hear laughing.

"He told me... Luka, he told me that if he loses it that I should let him go."

"I have seen him lose it. He's quite scary, that's coming from me." She laughed before nodding slowly. "I was a captain in the North American Alpha Kings enforcers... I have handled vampires, wolves, hybrids, and witches... and Luka scared me mostly because it came out of nowhere. I mean... well you know him. He's quiet, he watches others, he doesn't seem to let things get to him... but then his wolf..." She moved to crack her neck and I hummed. My wolf was pretty calm at all times... she liked to sense things, she loved babies and my family, but I was never a fighter, I didn't train or play fight.

"I know he is a big wolf-"

"He is the biggest wolf I have ever seen." She told me and I just nodded and looked around. "Vlad says he is like a bear. He doesn't like to be woken up, or made to do anything." She added and I nodded slowly. "Though I bet that if you asked him to wear a pink tie to the wedding he would do it."

"It doesn't have to be anything but black." I told her and she nodded and looked over my face before she jumped and then giggled. "Are they moving?" I asked knowing there were two babies in there.

"Yeah, kicking each other, kicking me... they calm down when I am around all four brothers. We have a dinner... we tried to make it every night, that way we talk all about our days and stuff... but Ivan ruined that, so we made it once a week and everyone has to be nice... when we're eating dinner and dessert they kind of... I want to say they swirl, there is no pain, no kicking... it's nice." She whispered the last part and rubbed over her belly like she was getting back to those moments. 

"So he and Ivan do get along some times?" I asked and she laughed but nodded.

"When Ivan is in a good mood, and Luka is in a good mood it's perfect."

"And Dimitri?"

"He's a sweetheart. He might be led astray once in a while by Ivan, but he sees the good intentions behind it at first, or he thinks he needs to do it because they're twins. I have been with them for months now and I can tell you first hand that Dimitri doesn't ever think of any of the mean things that happen."

"So Dimitri doesn't really look out for Luka? He kind of gave the idea to me that Dimitri was very protective of Luka..."I turned my head when I heard someone coming this way and I smiled and nodded at Vlad as he came closer. He got to his mate, his queen and he bent down and kissed her before kissing the belly.

"Are you telling secrets?" I heard him ask and I smiled and looked away, if he was whispering and being sneaky about it I shouldn't interfere.

"I am sharing my life with my sister in law. How to survive living with you all. It's like being back in the enforcers. Dirty laundry, dirty dishes, more food than we can eat but still none goes to waste." She giggled as he got closer and kissed over where I assumed he had marked her.

"Do not listen to her, we have maids and cooks." He told me as he stood back up and straightened out his suit. It was nice, fit him well, and looked like a regular suit. Nothing too special.

"I am sure. Am I supposed to... I don't know, bow or use formal titles?"

"No." Patty said right away just before Vlad opened his mouth to say something. I looked from her to him and he just shrugged.

"What you like to call us, you can call us." He told me and I nodded. "You're family, the one time you have to address us is in your ceremony, saying that you are one with our pack, but even that is a formality." He added and I nodded again before hearing another curtain move to open and I looked over and smiled wide as Luka walked towards me.

He had on a dark suit, white button up, and a black bow tie. He waved his hands at himself and i nodded. I couldn't help but looking into his eyes. The longer I did the bluer they got, and then there was another curtain sound, and another followed almost right away.

"Very dashing, we all clean up nice." I heard Ivan and I just stood and straightened his tie.

"Bond, James Bond." I heard Dimitri and I looked over at them and they were wearing the same as Vlad, very fitting suit and a regular tie.

"Now... for the best man, who is it?" Ivan asked and he bounced his shoulders as if was going to be picked and I just pressed myself into Luka's side.

"Dimirti... Vlad..." He looked at them and they both seemed to share a look before shrugging. "Vlad is king." He added when they didn't step up. I saw Patty nudge him and Vlad seemed to nod as if taking it on. She hit him again a little harder.

"I would be happy to." He told Luka and I smiled at him, then Patty and then up at my mate as he nodded slowly.

"I wasn't even an option." I heard Ivan almost whimper and I looked towards him. "Does that mean Vlad is doing the bachelor party?"

"No bachelor party." Luka cut his eyes to him and I just looked up at my mate, willing him to stop glaring and look down at me.

"I do... I can't be with you tonight. It's the rules. No bride and good time." I told him knowing that I would be either at home with my sisters, or with one of my sisters, and I didn't want him to be alone so I would have suggested him being with his family while I was.

"So we can party... just a little bit." Dimitri gave us both a smile and I knew he might have something nice planned where I was sure Ivan was plotting something. Their smiles were so different... Ivan looked like he was getting one over on us, and Dimitri looked hopeful.

They were twins but there was no way they could ever be the same person... or mistaken for the same person. Besides being fraternal it didn't seem like they were too much alike personality wise and I could kind of tell from breakfast, and the walk over, and right now... that they were not planning the same kind of party.

"You can have some fun, come on baby brother." Ivan got in his space, putting his arm around his neck and whispering something. That something made my mate push him off fast, his hands went a little wild before he got in Ivan's face like he was going to say or do something, and then he started to growl.

"Ivan." I saw that he wasn't backing off, he was smirking, glaring at his own brother like he took offense to his offense and I watched Dimitri say his name a couple more times before he took his arm and pulled him away from Luka.

I grabbed Luka, getting him to look at me and he was still seething and I made him focus on me for a couple seconds before he pulled me in close.

I could kind of hear what Ivan and Dimitri were talking about, Ivan was saying something about advice, and s*x and virgin.

"Ivan." I heard Patty call out and I saw them both stop talking and she walked over to them and I looked over to Vlad who was pinching the middle of his nose and he had his eyes closed. "shut up. Whatever party you're throwing better be a good one for me the babies. Got it." She asked and he looked at her, his eyes softening  a little as he looked at her belly before he nodded. "Good. This is a happy moment. If I cry Ivan Moroz I am stabbing you for it."

"Yes my queen." He smiled and I knew that smile... Luka had that smile. There was something they, my mate and Ivan, had in common. He wanted to make her feel ok, like she was understood. Luka did that the other day when we were talking about the ceremony. I know he didn't care one way or the other, so his smile was just to make me feel happy.

"Good."

"We should get rid of the strippers then." Ivan whispered as soon as she turned away from him and I heard curses, and it felt like it was a joke coming from him, but my mate kissed the top of my head and told me we were going to head out as soon as he was done.

He went into his curtain, Ivan was laughing, saying he was kidding, and the brothers all went to get dressed and paid for their things separately. Luka was first and he reached for me with his hand out as we walked and met up at the door heading out.

He was angry, but he kept his composure with me. I held his hand, we got back towards the resort and I smiled at my brother Sorin. He nodded and then focused back on getting to the elevator.

"You're going to be ok tonight." I told him knowing I couldn't stick around even if I wanted to. I did want to, I didn't want to be away from him for even a night, but knowing that he was going to have to spend time with his brothers made me worry a bit more.

"I will be yes." He told me and he took a deep breath.

"Luka-"

"I need to run before they come back." He told me and I just nodded. "You can stay and get the rest of the things taken care of-"

"I want to come with you. I know  a good trail humans around here don't use this time of year." I added and he nodded slowly and he moved in and held me tighter to his side. "Are you going to have a good time with your brothers? Even Ivan? I am sure that Dimitri wanted to do something … and if Patty is there it should all be ok."

"If you won't be with me, then we can all get together and talk about what comes after tomorrow."

"You mean... when we leave?" I asked and he nodded slowly and looked around before the floor dinged.

He got to the small suite that his aunt and uncle were staying in, he pushed open the door and we were both inside. He moved to put his suit up and he announced we were here before getting up and heading to the end of the room and pulling me closer to him as he sat with me.

It didn't take long for his aunt to come out, she announced his uncle was showering now that she was done, she wanted to see his suit, and she cooed over how nice it looked, how nice he will look in it tomorrow, and then his brothers were pushing in and Patty called out that she had to pee.

I watched as his brothers talked about tonight, how they would get dinner, how they could go for a run, have a drink together, eat dessert... and then Ivan went and said something about advice again, I knew what he meant... and so did Luka.

He was up and heading to the door before I could even get up. I looked at Ivan and shook my head before getting out of the room and on his tail.

As soon as he knew he was out of sight, he shifted. I ran after him as he growled and paced, and I just got to the end of the tree line. He paced, and I watched him as a human and he seemed ot start to relax, he followed my scent in the breeze and settled up beside me and i took my time running my fingers through his fur.

With his heat and mine... we were out there for 2 hours before he shifted back. His brother Dimitri had come out with extra clothes, he told me that my sister Amara had come to collect me and was waiting for, and that he would take care of Luka.

I took his wolf face, kissing the tip of his nose, and then backing away.

"I can't wait to marry you tomorrow Luka." I whispered and he started to shift back, he pulled me close, getting his hands around my hips and pulling me right up to him. I gave a little gasp but melted into his kiss.

I opened my mouth, kissing him just as much as he was kissing me. He was passionate... needy, and I was back down on my feet when he pulled away slowly. "Go and have fun with your sisters."

"Fun that includes hair masks, face masks, a bunch of beauty treatments... and probably a lot of girl talk."

"Better than mine."

"You'll have a good time." I promised, looking over at Dimitri to make sure he heard me promise him that and he smiled and nodded slowly. "I am going to go before I really see you all... naked." He laughed and since I had yet to see him nude, I turned and dashed off, keeping my eyes forward and not looking back.

The first time I would see my mate naked would be on our wedding night.
