Lie To Me Alpha novel Chapter 32

"He's My mate"

There was a pregnant pause, my mom sitting without saying anything at all.

I sat there nervously with my eyes locked on my mom. The way she sat and eyes on me is killing me inside that if there is a hole I would find myself in it or better shrink in to an ant woman.

'How cool is that' I deadpan to Alera who only purr through our links.

Another thing I am just it's just me and her but not Cora or dad. It would be a total disaster.

When she moves to stand up I gulp my saliva wiping the sweat of my palms over my rhombus. My legs are going numb. She paces back and forth in front of me.

Then suddenly she asked "how far did you go with him? And how long have you two been together?"

I blink my eyes while my head going round and round in circle.

"Ma" I stutter "how far did you two go?"

"not far" she shut me up with a warning growl.

"You know what I mean Addasah stop playing dumb"

'gosh your mom is so scary when she can be'1

Alera whinny in my head. Tossing from side to side and wagging her tail nonstop. She was beyond nervous too and the way my mom act is freaking the both of us out.

I took long deep breath "nothing happens mom, we just kiss, makeout with our clothes on" I tell her hoping it would ease things "and tonight was our first date" I bit my lip

She stops then she looks at me and I know I kind of sound stupid. She closes her eyes with her fist clenching then unclenching them. I know my mom is trying so hard to calm herself

"Addasah, when I ask you before why did you lie?" she asks

"I didn't want anybody to know about it I just want to handle it on my own. He's my mate and so I thought he's my business alone not anybody else" I stood up throwing my hands in the air.

"I'm sorry if I didn't tell you but mom, you and dad have a lot of things on your hands now"

"they are not important" she retort quickly "you are more important to us."

"I am sorry mom and you know it's not just that. I also need time before letting anybody know"

she look at me with disappointment "Addasah if it wasn't for your grandma I wouldn't have known it"

"Grandma" I mutter.

"Yes! your grandma told me that you and Matteo were pretty close over the weekend, she knew you two were mates.

And if you think how, honey your grandma lives longer than any of us" I was more than speechless.
