Accidental Surrogate

Chapter 389: Good morning, Cora!

Ella

“Really, Cora?” I say, nudging my sister with my toe. I shake my head at my

sister’s naked sleeping form, pressed against her mate under the single little

throw blanket that’s tossed over both of them. Seriously, how are they not

freezing?

“Auntie Cora is going to be so embarrassed,” I whisper to Rafe in my arms, who

smiles at me and makes me laugh. “We are never going to let her live this down,

are we, little baby!?”

Cora blinks awake then, looking blearily around her as she lifts her head. Roger

is still senseless to the world, fully asleep beside her.

“What?” Cora murmurs, still looking around for a moment before glancing up at

me and the baby. Then, as reality snaps back to her, she gasps and clutches the

blanket tight to her chest.

“Morning, sister,” I say, smiling wickedly down at her. “Missing something?” And

then I pull her bra out from behind my back.

“Ella!” she gasps, reaching for it, though I pull it away from her.

“What!” I laugh, enjoying every second of this. “It’s not like you were keeping it

safe – I found this ten feet away, tossed at the foot of the RV! It’s the first thing I

saw at the bottom of the steps!”

“No, you didn’t!” she growls in response, reaching for it again.

“Did too!” I laugh, tossing it to her now and shaking my head with glee. ” Soooo,”

I tease, “did you guys have a good nighttttt?”

Cora just glares up at me as she struggles to get her bra back on without

dropping the blanket. After she closes the clasp behind her back she smacks
