Accidental Surrogate for Alpha

#Chapter 394 – Family Reunited Ella

I get tenser and tenser as the minutes pass, and I can feel Sinclair behind me likewise desperate to know what’s going on behind that closed door. A priestess comes by after a little while, offering us tea or seats, but we decline both because we’re very aware that we’re definitely not going to be able to relax until that door opens. Which it doesn’t do for a very, very long time.

“What are they even doing in there?” I ask, especially when I hear a little muffled shout come through that makes me go quite still. Sinclair chuckles a little and I spin to look up at him, not understanding what he means –

But then, when I see his raised eyebrow and the smirk on his face, I realize…

“Oh, EW!” I say, swatting at him with my free hand, the one that’s not holding the sleeping baby. “They are so not-”

“Roger would,” he murmurs, smiling at me and still laughing lightly.

“Cora would not,” I say, vehement. “ This is mom’s house.”

“She didn’t seem to mind about such activities outside the RV, where dad could have seen, were he to glance out the window.”

“Yeah, but that’s your dad,” I say, rolling my eyes and returning my focus to the door. “It’s different.”

“The Goddess is all-seeing,” Sinclair says, and I can feel him shrug. “She’ll spy if she wants to – what’s the difference between having s3x in her temple as opposed to anywhere else -”

But I hiss at him to shut up, looking around anxiously to make sure he wasn’t overhead. Chuckling, wrapping his arms around my waist again, Sinclair pulls me back against him. “If the baby weren’t here,” he murmurs low into my ear, pulling my hips back against him…

“Enough out of you,” I chide, though I can’t help the smile that tugs at my lips. Because…well, my mate is very difficult to resist. Even in an inappropriate religious space dedicated to my mom.
