My Surprise Mate (Book 1+ 2) novel Chapter 24

I sat in shock at his words.

Dane’s thumb gently caressed the top of my hand as he waited for my reaction.

“Is she still here? How do you know for sure that she is my mother?”

The questions began flooding out of me as my mind raced.

Dane sighed as he pulled me close to him, I’m sure in an attempt to calm me down some.

I pushed away from him, “You didn’t think you should have come to get me or brought her here to meet me?”

There were so many emotions running through me that I wasn’t sure what I felt.

Anger seemed to be the most prominent though.

“Is she still here Dane!?”

I shouted at him as I stood up.

He followed, “No.

She left, but she said she would return tomorrow.

She wanted to talk to me first.

She said it was something she needed to do before she saw you.

I don’t know why, and she didn’t explain anything to me.

She just asked me a few questions before arranging to meet tomorrow morning.”

I still seemed to be having a hard time wrapping my mind around all this.

“But how do you know she really was my mother?”

I asked a little softer.

A smile spread on his face, “Because she looks just like you except for her eye color and chocolate brown hair, the same body build, everything.”

I sat back down on the couch, “She didn’t tell you anything though?”

I didn’t understand why she would show up and not say anything.

Not even want to see me yet.

“Her name is Tatiana Sparks, and she is the missing mate of the Alpha King.

”

His eyes studied me as the news set in.

“So, the rumors are true?”

I whispered in disbelief.

“ Seems that way,”

he chuckled.

My eyes shot up to meet his.

“ This isn’t funny Dane,”

I could feel my anger starting to build again.

It seemed like lately I was either crying or pissed off.

He lifted his hands in surrender, “lI know babe, I’m just surprised, is all.

I didn’t really believe any of the rumors, let alone that you were a key player in them.”

He kissed my forehead as his arms wrapped around me.

I relaxed in his warmth, in the protection I felt from him.

I tilted my head up and let my lips crash into his.

My hands snaked around his neck as I moved to straddle him.

I melted into his touch, not wanting him to stop.

But of course, he did.

I groaned as he pulled away, breaking the kiss, “I want to babe, I do, but you're supposed to be on bed rest.”

I let my head fall to his shoulder as I cuddled up against him.

Asmall smile crept across my face as I realized things Ican still do for him.

I gently started placing kisses on his neck as I let my hands travel all over his body.

I sat up as I tried to pull his shirt over his head, “We can’t Holly,”

I could tell he was struggling.
