My Surprise Mate (Book 1+ 2) novel Chapter 54

We were awakened by the bedroom door flying open.

Blaze instinctively let out a growl as he jumped from the bed, ready for a fight.

As my eyes adjusted, I saw my dad making his way to the bed, "Princess!"

I jumped from the bed running to him and flinging myself into him, almost knocking him over.

"Dad! I’m so happy to see you!"

Dad squeezed me tight, "I’m so sorry I didn’t make it to you in time."

Dad slowly set me back on my feet, brushing tears from my face.He pulled me back to him, giving me a bone-crushing hug again.

"It’s not your fault, dad...my mate did everything he could for me." I turned to look for Blaze only to find him standing right behind me.

He slipped his arm around my waist before leaning over and kissing me on top of my head.

"I’ll always do everything I can for you."

He whispered near my ear, but I know dad heard him when a small smile graced his face.

Blaze reached his hand out to my dad.

"Come here," dad said, chuckling as he pulled Blaze in for a hug too.

I heard the rushing of feet coming toward the room and immediately started to panic.It sounded just like when we tried to escape.

Blaze realized what was happening, giving my dad a look.

They both stood protectively on each side of me, "It’s no one to be afraid of, princess, I promise."

Dad told me gently.

"Oh my god! My baby!!" my mom shouted as she rounded the corner into the She pulled me to her, patting my back.

As I pulled away, I saw Ash and Genesis hugging Blaze.

"Let’s get y’all home," Dad said as he led the way out of the room.

Dad walked in front, with Blaze and mom on either side of me behind him and Ash and Genesis following close behind us.

Dominick was waiting at the front door for us, "Are you sure you wouldn’t want to stay the night? It is really no problem at all."

Dad shook his hand, "Thank you, but we would like to get home as soon as possible.We have much to discuss."

Dominick smiled politely, "I understand.I’m sure I will be seeing you soon."

He stepped to the side as he opened the front door.I recognized the SUV parked right in front as one of ours.

Ash slid into the driver seat as dad opened the back door for the rest of us.

Blaze and I climbed into the back seat, leaving mom and Genesis to sit in the middle.

As we pulled off, I sighed, feeling safe again, before something that was said popped into my head, causing my heart to start racing again.

"What about Devin?! He’s in the cells at Dominick’s!" I sat up straight.

The last thing I wanted was for him to escape somehow and have to worry again.

Blaze pulled me closer to him as dad spoke, "Dominick will ensure he gets brought to our pack.You have nothing to worry about anymore, princess."

Dad’s calm voice and words helped ease my own worry.

I leaned over, laying my head on Blaze’s shoulder while he rubbed my arm, lulling me to sleep.I woke up on a soft bed and immediately sat up straight.

My heart pounded in my chest as I looked around.

My room...I was over my waist.

He looked so peaceful...and so incredibly sexy as he lay there.I shook my head; get it together, Kyra; now isn’t the time to be having thoughts like that.I carefully lifted his arm as I slid from the bed and tiptoed to the bathroom.I walked out to find him still sleeping.

That’s good; I know he must be exhausted.
