My Surprise Mate

Dane called everyone to his office, both his parents and Ash and Colby.

The anger that flooded the room when he told them what Tatiana said was almost unbearable.

Zayd and Adria were the first to speak, “He will have to kill us if he wants to get to our granddaughter.”

I had never seen them so mad before and to be honest, Zayd was scary when he was pissed.

Ash and Colby both vowed to protect us with their lives.

Though I don’t agree with that.

The thought of people I cared about, innocent people, dying because my father is insane didn’t sit well with me.

But there is little I can do about it.

One-pot of coffee and five hours later we felt we had a good starting plan.

Ash was instructed to kick up the training.

Every healthy male 18 years and older, and any female that wants to fight would be required to train with Ash.

Dane had made a few phone calls knowing they wouldn’t have a positive outcome.

Should Apollo get word of Dane trying to recruit outside help, he could easily spin it to make it look as if we were trying to rebel against him.

Dane only called Alpha’s, which he and Zayd fully trusted and were close friends with.

“Call my brother.”

Adria sighed.

My eyes widened in surprise.

I had no idea she had a brother, which made me realize I really don’t know much about my newfound family.

“He will help.

As much as I hate to see him involved in this fight, we will need his help.”

Adria looked at Zayd, who only nodded in agreement.

Dane picked up the phone and dialed a number before putting it on speakerphone.

After two rings, a deep gruff voice answered, “Alpha White...”

“Hello brother,”

Adria responded, a smile creeping onto her face.

“ Adria! How are you?” Adria hesitated a second too long, “Sister, tell me Dane decided to take over the phone call, “I’m right here, Uncle Dayton. Sorry to have to wake you up. But we have a slight situation we need your help with.”

“I will be there in three hours.”
