Surrogate For Alpha Dom
Chapter 390
Chapter 390:The Temple
Ella
It is, indeed, a long climb. Cora and I are panting by the time we get to the top,
and even though Sinclair took Rafe from me halfway through the hike I have to
take a moment to catch my break when we pull ourselves up to the final level.
Roger has the indecency to look a little smug about the fact that he barely looks
winded and Cora gives him a little shove on the shoulder as she works to take a
few deep breaths and wipe the sweat from her brow.
Even as I work to bring my heartrate back down, I absolutely marvel at the sight
before me.
The Goddess’ temple, like the one in the city, is built completely with white
marble. But unlike the one in the city, this one looks…ancient. Vines grow in
ropes all over it, looking almost as if the structure is part of the forest itself,
having grown up organically from it. The temple is tall and wide, the pillars in
front drawing my eyes upward to the slanted roof which curls into a dome. At the
very peak of the dome is a golden crescent moon, reaching up towards the sky,
glinting in the bright sunlight.
“Wow,” Cora says, standing straight next to me and likewise marveling at the
temple. “Mom has some… impressive property.”
“I know, right?” I mutter back, crossing my arms and shaking my head. If
someone had told me, when I was a little girl sleeping in my creaky little orphan
bed, that my mom lived here…
Well. I probably would have believed them.
But I was a very imaginative child.
“Um,” Roger says, looking anxiously at Cora. “Shall we?”
I smile at him, seeing that he’s eager to move on but also that he wants to give
her room to process this experience. It’s more intense for her than it is for him,
and I think that it’s very sweet that he realizes this. Roger really has come leaps
and bounds as a person from when I first met him.
Sinclair comes to stand next to me and I grin at him and then turn to my baby,
taking his hands and speaking to him quietly, asking him how he likes it here
and if he’s ready to meet his granny for real this time. Rafe claps and gurgles
