Alissa's POV

I woke up to a warm feeling behind me.

I slowly opened my eyes and looked around. I was in my room.

Then, I carefully looked back and then saw him.

Luke.

I gulped and when I moved a little, Luke pulled me closer to him snuggling his face on my neck.

I slightly chuckled.

When did he even get here?

He was busy last night with work and I decided to sleep in my own room since I was still pretty embarrassed from what happened the other.

Anyway, I carefully removed Luke's arm on my waist and I made my way out of the bed.

For a moment, I looked at Luke and smiled.

He looks so nice when sleeping.

This is the first time I've seen him like this.

I then made my way to the bathroom and washed up because I want to go to the training hall.

My royal training isn't until later in the afternoon so I figured that it would be nice to train in the morning.

I got dressed in black sports set clothing and then paired it with black rubber shoes.

After that, I took a last glance at Luke before leaving.

I didn't want to wake him up since I know he's had a pretty rough night.

I carefully made my way out of the room and headed downstairs.

I saw Lucas by the living.

"Hey" I greeted him and he turned to look at me.

"Morning, sis" he greeted with a wink.

I chuckled.

"Off to the training hall?" he asked.

I nodded.

"Wanna come with?" I asked.

He nodded.

"Let's go" he said and we got out of the palace and walked our way to the training hall.

"How's the mated life?" he asked as we walked.

I immediately flushed red and Lucas burst out laughing.

I've been getting an awful lot attention since yesterday.

I was only able to get out of bed in the afternoon and of course, everyone saw my mark.

Even before they saw me, they've already seen Luke since he was going around yesterday so when I was finally able to get out of the room, word has already come around.

I still haven't gotten into the details with Lia because she had to do some important things with her brothers.

To be honest, I don't think I'll even be able to explain to her what happened. Much more go into detail.

Specially about the actual things that happened that night.

"Are you two getting along well now that you guys are officially mated?" Lucas asked curiously.

I shrugged.

"I think it's too early to tell but some things have definitely changed" I told him.

Lucas nodded.

"I'm just glad that you guys are making progress" he said and gave me a pat on the back.

I smiled a little.

"You know, Luke was miserable when you went to visit Sol" he suddenly said.

I looked at him curiously.

"He spent his days working 24/7 and just isolating himself or training until he drops" he said.

"He barely ate or slept. It was just like 3 years ago when you first slept" he added as he looked at me.

"Luke can be quite the stupid jerk, Ali. But that stupid jerk cares for you so much and just doesn't know how he should act around you" Lucas said.

"He doesn't want to lose you but he also doesn't know what he should do to keep you" he continued.

Lucas sighed.

I gave him a pat on the back.

"I get what you're trying to say" I told him.

"Thank you, Lucas" I said and he smiled at me.

We reached the training hall and made our way inside.

"Let me get changed in the back so I can join you in training" Lucas said.

I noddex and went to the back to change while I walked over to the side and grabbed the things we were going to use to train together.

I immediately noticed everyone glancing my way every now and them.

Of course by now, everyone knew and even though my mark was being covered by my clothes, Luke's scent mixed with mine would be what gives it away.

I tried to ignore the attention I was getting.

Not until uncle Rainer came.

"Hey" he greeted and ruffled my hair.

"Hi" I greeted back with a smile.

"I wasn't able to see you guys when you came back. How was your trip to Sol?" he asked.

"It was fine. Both Lia and I enjoyed it very much" I said.

Uncle Rainer smiled.

"I'm glad. I'm sure you missed your old pack" he said. Then, he looked at the things I got for the training. "Training so soon? Shouldn't you be resting?" he said. "I've gotten enough rest, uncle Rainer" I told him.

"Really? Healing takes time" he said and eyed my neck.

I chuckled.

"Stop. You're here to confirm the mark" I said and playfully pushed him.

Uncle Rainer laughed.

"You've been with us for more than a month, arguing with Luke back and forth and so many other things happening so hearing the rumors that you've already been marked is something I need see for myself before I believe it" he said. I shook my head in disbelief.

"You're quite nosy" I said.

"No, I'm not but is the rumor really true?" he said and we both laughed.

Then, I saw uncle Rainer's eyes look behind me and I felt a familiar aura.

I looked behind me and saw Luke walking over to us.

His hair was disheveled and he had the same clothes he wad wearing in bed earlier.

"It's not a rumor" he said and slid his arm on my ways gently grabbing me.

"We're officially marked and mated" he said with a yawn.

"Did you even bother to wash and brush your teeth, kid? You obviously just woke up" uncle Rainer pointed out to Luke.

"I had to make sure she didn't run away again" Luke said and eyed me.

"You should've woken me up" he said.

"You were obviously tired" I said.

"Still" he said and pulled me to him.

"Morning" he whispered and planted a kiss on my temple.

And that made my heart explode inside of my chest.
