My Surprise Mate

After being released and making it home, Dane was very attentive, to say the least.

Though I was healed, I still felt weak.

True to his word, Dane had taken a week off.

He had originally said a few days, but after being home for two days he made the decision to take the whole week off.

I tried to convince him not to.I told him I was fine, and that I would have Adria and Genesis if I needed help with anything, but he wasn’t listening to me.

Kyra had become quite a handful now.I loved watching her.

Dane was right when he said she was a fast crawler.

There is no keeping her in one spot anymore, and the first time she pulled herself up while holding on to the couch I cried.

Yes, big ugly tears.

She is growing way too fast.

"And she is out,"

Dane told me, chuckling as he walked back into the living room.

Kyra had decided for the last couple of nights that she didn’t want to go to bed unless it was Dane putting her to bed.

"Have you heard from Apollo?" I asked him as he sat down next to me.

"I talked to him briefly this morning.He is still out searching for Devin.We both agree that if he is still alive it won’t be for long.Most wolves die shortly after their mate is killed."

To my surprise, Dane didn’t seem to be worried about the fact Devin was still out there, if he was, he was doing a good job hiding it.

"Most...Devin isn’t most.What happens to the ones that don’t die with their mates?" I questioned.

I felt Dane tense beside me, "We'll deal with that if we have to."

I didn’t but that isn’t what I asked.

"Not what I asked.What happens to the ones that don’t die with their mates, Dane?" I repeated my question.
