My Surprise Mate

Dane slipped his hand in mine as I walked beside him back to the packhouse.

My mind was whirling with questions that I doubt anyone could answer.

We quickly checked in on Kyra before making our way upstairs to his office.

Zayd sighed as he took a seat, "Well, Dominick didn’t tell us much more than we already knew."

I couldn’t tell what Dane was feeling right now, his face showed no expression, but his body was coiled tight with anger.

"At least we know the vampires won't be helping Devin"

I tried to sound confident even though I didn’t feel it right now.

We were interrupted by the phone ringing, and I tensed as Dane answered.

He slowly handed me the phone, mouthing to me that it was Apollo.

I took a deep breath before answering, "Hello?"

"Holly, how are you? Is Kyra okay?"

Apollo’s voice boomed through the phone.

"We are fine, but I should be asking you that.Have you fully recovered?"

I questioned as I stared down at the floor.

"I have, thank you.Don’t worry about me.You haven’t seen or heard from Devin, have you?"

"No, we haven’t.I don’t understand why you didn’t fight back.Why would you allow them to hurt you? And why would they want to anyway?"

I couldn’t resist anymore.I needed answers, I just had to be silence that flooded through the line had my anxiety spiking.I hope I didn’t just mess up by asking him these questions.

"He is my son...my only son.I couldn’t hurt him in any way.As far as why they want to...well, that isn’t important.As long as you and Kyra are okay, that’s all that matters right now."

His voice sounded strained, and I could tell he was carefully choosing his words.

"You could have used a command on Nyla...then she wouldn’t have been able to stab you.And Apollo, I do think why they would want to hurt you is important.I’m worried about you."

Agitation laced my words.
