Accidental Surrogate for Alpha

“Wait, what!” I exclaim, not believing my own ears. “You got your job back?”
“It sounds like somebody very important called in some favors for me.” My sister confirms. “They even gave me a raise to compensate for my troubles.”
She doesn’t need to say more. There’s only one person with enough power to undo a command issued by Dominic Sinclair – and that’s Dominic Sinclair himself. “I can’t believe this. Why didn’t he tell me?”
“You mean you didn’t ask?” I can imagine the precise look on Cora’s face. Stunned and reeling at once.
“I mean, not after that first time.” I relate, wondering if I should have tried harder to help her. Did I misperceive my importance to Sinclair, or the power I hold now that I’m carrying his child?
“Well apparently that’s all it took.” She relates, her voice full of elation. “Thank you, Ella.”
“Don’t thank me,” I object. “I’m the one who got us into this situation to begin with.” I remind her ruefully.
“Of course you didn’t.” She refutes. “Listen, I don’t know how it happened, but either I made a mistake or…”

“Why would they?” I fret, not wanting to believe my sister messed up so badly, but not seeing any logic in the alternative.
“I don’t know.” She confesses. “But that’s not important now. It’s all going to be okay from here on out. You get your baby, I get my career… the only thing we need now is to find a way to get revenge on Mike.”
“That was a much easier problem to solve before he fled halfway across the country.” I share. “I’m not sure how I’m supposed to enact any sort of plan against him when he’s so far away.”
Cora suggests, a note of teasing in her voice – the same one children use on the playground to tease each
I don’t even need to think about it. “I don’t want him to think I’m high maintenance. He’s already helped me so much.” Glancing at the closed door Sinclair disappeared behind, I sidle back towards the entrance, lowering my voice
