LOVE ME AGAIN MATE
Chapter 27
Ana.
âSit down sweetheart, you are making me feel dizzy when you keep doing thatâ I ignore my dadâs comment and continue shifting from one point to another.
Three f u c k i n g hours. Itâs been three hours since my mate left and he is not back. What is taking Jace so long? He is not picking up my calls and I canât help but assume the worse.
âI will call him againâ I worriedly mumble, dialing his number and it goes straight to voicemail. âSee what Iâm talking about Dad? his phone is switched off.â I have called him about twenty times but non of my calls were picked. The phone going off is really a bad sign.
Oh! goddess. I tug at my hair and breath deeply.
Baby, sit down pleaseâ Dad grabs my shoulders and pushes me into a seat and I groan. He doesnât understand. â Take this.â Father hands me a glass of water and I sigh drowning it in one big gulp.
âDad, my instinct is telling meâ¦â I worriedly start, but he immediately cuts me off. So rude.
âHold on there, sweetheart. First, you are too young to have an instinct, and second, my men went with him and they would have notified me if anything went wrongâ I donât trust his men or anyone else around my
mate.
âAre you forgetting what happened the other dayâ I am about to stand when he pushes me down again.
Goddess! Am I overreacting?
I should trust my mate. He is strong and a hell of a fighter..
F u c k, even my own words are not convincing enough.
I knew I should have gone with him. My mate needs me, Dadâ I look at him with pleading eyes, and he starts laughing. What is funny so here? âHey, stop laughing at meâ I complain hitting his arm with my phone, âHey, stop laughing at mummyâ My son chimes in, and itâs only now that Iâm realizing he woke up from his nap.
F u c k me.
You should see yourself right now sweetheart, you just woke un you are
too weak to do anything he mumbles trying to stop himself from laughing. He is so cute.
Daddy said I should protect my mummyâ Liam defensively stands in front of me and I chuckle ruffling his hair. Of course, my Superman will protect me. Itâs never boring with him in the room.
Come and get me, my prince, show me what you gotâ Dad beckons him with his arms and my baby runs toward him with a cry of war. He will be a great warrior like his dad.
Three minutes later, I smell him and that has me getting off my sit as fast as lightning.
âOh, babe! you are okayâ I run to my mate as soon as he enters the front doors.â Are you okay?â I ask, inspecting him for any signs of injury,
âI am perfect, Seeâ He widens his arms and gestures down to his b*dy with a wide grin. â Come here, babyâ Jace holds me to his chest and I sigh wrapping my hands around him.
âI have been calling you without response, do you know how worried I was?â I mutter inhaling his heavenly scent.
âSorry baby, I left my phone in the carâ he mumbles k*ssing my head.
âIâm fine too Anaâ I look behind Jace to see Chase. What is he doing here? My trust issues are showing up again.
âDaddy, I am protecting mummy. See, I beat Grandpa upâ We turn around and laugh at the sight of Liam pinning my groaning dad on the floor.
âDa m n, he is cute!â Chase mumbles taking steps forward for a better look.
âThatâs my champion. Can I know what he did to her, sweetheart?â Jace says picking him up from Dad. I love the fact that they are getting along just fine.
âHe was laughing at mummy and⦠and he said mummy should sit downâ He enthusiastically explains and his father chuckles and winks at me. Dam n, Jace.
Woah! That was so bad baby, thank you for keeping her safe for me. yeah?â Jace pinches his cheek and he giggles with frantic nods.
Do you need help down there?â I stretch my hand out for Dad and he chuckles taking it.
LOVE ME AGAIN, MATE
saddens and I quickly embrace him.
âWe are here now Dad, we are hereâ I mumble patting his back.
âIs everything okay son? someone was about to come to look for youâ Dad smirks looking at me and I roll my eyes. Every mate will behave the same way I did.
âNo, I just said, I should have gone with himâ I quickly defend and Jace gives me that knowing smirk again. They are now ganging up on me.
âTell me you found somethingâ Dad hopefully asks and Jace nods with a slightly sad smile.
âWhat is he doing here?â Dad points at Chase with a frown, his demeanor completely changing.
âHe is a friend, Dad,â I tell him grabbing the backpack from Jace,
I can tell the contents of the bag will be another shocker to us. But I hopefully believe it will also lead us to the enemy.
âSo you are telling us we donât know her real identity?â I whisper staring at the countless passports she owns. This is just high-end crazy. Jace placed everything on our dining table and because of security problems, he excused Chase from the room.
âYes, and there is moreâ He pushes a camera and a bunch of our photos together in front of me and I gasp. This is crazy. How do you even threaten your own son? With the way I love Liam, I canât imagine myself doing anything to him.
That woman can really act. F u c k, I loved her so much because I thought she was one of the kindest people I ever met in my life.
âI found this file too, I am not sure I want to see what is in itâ He mumbles in a sad voice, and I gently squeeze his hand to offer comfort. This must be so hard for him.
âItâs okay son, Ana and I will check it outâ Dad assures him and he quickly gets up from his seat.
âMy dad?â Cra p! I heard Alpha was in the cells.
âHe is at the pack hospital. I will have him brought hereâ Jace nods and k*sses my head before leaving the room.
âJason Parkerâ I read out loud the name on the first document. Itâs a marriage certificate between Jason Parker and Cla⦠1
PAGAIN MATE
Do you know any of these names?â I ask Dad who appears to be deep in thought.
The name Parker sounds familiar, I just donât know where I heard it fromâ He keenly reads the paper and sighs pushing it away.
The next document is a title deed that shows the joint purchase of land in the human world. There are also documents showing the various properties and businesses the couples own. The last page of the file though, has a picture of Jaceâs mum and the other person in the photo has part of his head torn, making it hard for us to identify him.
âDo you think maybe there are chances of this Clara being Jaceâs mum?â I mumble staring at the blonde in the picture. How can someone have so many personalities? She is so fake.
She obviously has a lot sheâs hiding from Alpha. Poor man.
âWe need to find this Jason guy and we will get our answers. I will do everything in my power to serve you and your mum the justice you deserve honey. Whoever these people are, they wonât stay in hiding foreverâ I have never seen the determination in his eyes before.
Who is that woman and what has she been up to?
Who is she working for.
