Alpha Ace and his Undercover Mate

I knew that voice too well, even though I've heard it so minimum since the day I learnt that she was still alive.

I grew anxious, because I knew that she couldn't have had better timing.

It was then that I realised that even after everything I said, I still couldn't have made it all better. But her, my mom, was the answer indeed.

She was the reason this whole mission existed in the first place, so it was only logical that her appearance would end it too.

Still, I grew anxious as I watched my dad tense. From the corner of my eyes, I could see Aiden tensing too, and an involuntary whimper escaped his lips. He has never met her, but his wolf would surely be calling out for her even without knowing her.

It all made me wonder how I've never known that she was still alive. As wolves, we should've been able to sense the life of our mother. Maybe we were so far deceived, that even late at nights when we thought w felt her, it was overshadowed by doubt and trust in our father's words.

Now, that very father of ours looked like he was on the verge of breaking down at the very sight of the woman he loved.

"Blake?"

Every head whipped to the source of the voice, and there stood my mom in all her beauty. My eyes went back to dad as he just stood there with a look on his face that would make a big man cry.

My eyes then travelled to Aiden, and all my anger for him vanished when his face mimicked dad's. We were twins and we went through the same thing, but I knew that he was always a little bit more affected by our mom's absence.

His steps were slow and she seemed glued to her spot too. Her eyes glossed over and her face daubed with a mixture of relief,
