All Novel Sweet
Chapter 62
Alora POV
"What's all this?" Medea asks as she steps into the dinning room. Her eyes gazing in wonder at the breakfast banquet I prepared for her return.
I had been working on this since the early hours of the morning.
I was unable to sleep knowing that she would be back this morning. My levels of anticipation mixed thickly with anxiety and a secret feg of excitement of what she may be able to tell me. For what she must know.
She was the ruling Luna at the time with Alpha Damon as her mate, ruling by his side. Nothing like this would have happened without her knowledge. She was the closest person to actually being able to ask my dead parents themselves. Medea appreciated home-made baked goods and I needed her on side today, to finally get the answers that I so desperately need.
"I wanted to make you breakfast..." I beam up at her as I place the last tray out on the table.
Medea had an art for reading body language. I needed to be careful, I didn't want her to brush the topic aside, to think I couldn't handle the truth.
Yes I was still under the doctor's care and recovering. But hopefully any day now he will sign me off.
I was starting to find the regular doctor appointments frustrating and preventing me from mentally moving on. I needed to stop being reminded of what I did on a daily basis.
I was feg tired now but I don't care, the mess of the flour will have all been worth it.
"Is it just us this morning? This is enough to feed half of the pack."
"I went a little crazy I know, but I didn't know how things would turn out."
"Well this is a lovely surprise to come back to. You will make a fine Luna my dear."
She takes a seat at the table, helping herself to some of the croissants I freshly baked this morning and the fruit salad I prepared.
I have created the perfect environment and now was the perfect time to start asking questions.
Just as I am about to start questioning her, Than walks in.
He yawns and rubs at the back of his neck as he enters, stopping to wrap his arms around me from behind and kiss me on the tip of my shoulder.
"Good morning beautiful. Last night was...sexy." His voice enters my mind, my cheeks blushing from the memories of last night.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
He looked crazy hot himself this morning. Grey sweat pants hanging on his hips and a black vest that shows his muscular body.
"Morning...I've made breakfast. Is now a good time?" I reply back through the mind-link, turning in his hold to reach up and kiss his neck.
"Good time?" He inhales my scent, a soft rumble filling his chest from my closeness.
"To ask Medea about my adoption certificate?"
"I don't see why not." Than had been very supportive since I found this certificate.
He reassured me that we would find out together, our first port of call being his parents.
The wedding dress was now gone. Freya had returned it back to Kaia's old place. Than wanted to burn it but I think it serves a purpose of reminding me of what could have been, if I had succeeded. Without him by my side I really don't know how I would have coped. He has been my anchor in all of this. Always by my side, no matter what.
I take a deep breath in preparing myself for the news I have had sleepless nights over recently. Such information will change what I thought about my life forever.
A part of me wants to go back and not to have followed Freya to Kaia's. To not have put on that dress and checked the contents of the boxes.
But I can't change that now, all I can do is move forward with the support of Than, knowing we are in this together.
"Medea, I wanted to ask you something?"
"Yes dear..."
My fingers fumble as I reach into my back pocket and pull out the certificate that I have carefully folded.
"I was going through some of my parent's boxes and I found something that I wanted to talk to you about."
"Sounds intriguing." She smiles at me as she reaches for the jar of jam, her mouth already chewing on pastry.
Why was this so difficult. She is my mother-in-law, the woman that has been like a mother to me over the past few years...albeit I've been asleep for most of them. I should be able she says so herself. O talk to her about anything...
