The Orphaned Luna NxL

Chapter 4.

NOELLE'S POV.*

"Mr.Black! Welcome." We heard Jordan say

We snapped our head over to where he was, he was starring at us confused.

"I'm Jordan, and this is my mother Genevieve.. thank you for taking the time to come meet with us."

"Thank you Jordan, I'm happy to be here." He says back, our eyes locking again.

Out of all the days.. it would be today that I find my mate.. and not just any mate.. he's the royal alpha.. I was in shock.. I wanted to go run and jump in water to make sure I wasn't dreaming.. this couldn't be right. Me?! As the mate to the ROYAL alpha? Yeah no.. couldn't be me.

"Who is this?" He asks snapping me out of my thoughts still starring at me

"She's nob-"

"I didn't ask you." He says looking at Genevieve

I try and catch my breath

"I'm-im Noelle.. Noelle Abrahams." I said to him

"Noelle.. you're beautiful." He says eyeing me again

"Thank you, your highness." I respond looking down

"Don't call me that.. call me Lyle, after all you are my mate." He says looking me in the eyes

Genevieve and Jordan's head snap in our direction. The breath gets stuck in my lungs again

He called us mate!!' Kamora sings in my head, she's obviously happy

"What the fuck just happened?" We all look over to the man in the corner

Jordan's clears his throat "So.. shall we eat?" He says

"Noelle start getting the plates ready." Genevieve says with a snarky attitude

I start to head over to the kitchen when I feel a hand grab my wrist, sending millions of little shocks up my arm.. it made me jump, I look up to see Lyle holding on to me looking Genevieve's way

"I'd like it if I had a seat next to my mate." He spoke looking at Genevieve. "You'll have to find another maid, we can make our own plates."

"Yes sir." She responded. She looked down towards the ground.

I wasn't used to this.. to see Genevieve so submissive and not in control.. not since before Michael passed.. it felt good, like she was getting the karma she deserved. I turn my attention to Lyle, he was talking to the man in the corner and another middle aged woman. I still feel like I'm in a dream.. this gorgeous man... he's just mine? It doesn't make sense. Michael made it a point to teach me about the mating process. He explained what it would feel like when you found your mate. You feel this deep connection to them like you've know them forever. He also explained the marking process also, which was awkward by the way.. but nonetheless, he wanted to make sure I was well educated, including school. He wanted me to have the best, and I'll never be able to thank him for it.

"Noelle?" I look up to Lyle, losing my train of thought.

"Hmm?" I respond

He gives me a small smile and laughed "I said I'd like to introduce you to my beta Isaac, and my assistant Lydia."

"It's nice to meet you." I answer, giving them both a smile as I shake their hands.

"You're very beautiful!" Lydia says smiling at me

"Thank you!" I say back to her
