Married My Ex's Alpha Uncle by Aurora Starling

"Yeah, what would you do without me?" He teased.

Silver and only Silver.

My phone chimed at that moment, and I scrambled for it. My heart was racing as I looked at the screen, hoping that it was Silver. I had Shirley's number blocked for right now, so I knew it wasn't her. At some point, I'll talk to her Shirley, but not right now. My priority was It wasn't Silver, but it was the next best thing. The only window I had to Silver.

Rebecca: I finally got her out of bed and ate something. She's still a shell of herself and tears keep escaping her eyes when she thinks I'm not watching. But it's progress.

My heart ached for my wife; I wanted to hold her and tell her that it was going to be okay. I wasn't going to let anything bad happen to her or our marriage again. Nobody would ever come between us.

I replied to the text right away.

Me: Do you think she will be ready to talk to me soon?

Rebecca: Maybe. I told her that you and Shirley aren't mates.

Me: I wanted to be the one to tell her.

I couldn't help but feel a bit aggravated that she heard this information from Rebecca and not from me. But I was also relieved that the misunderstanding was cleared up.

Rebecca: Sorry, but she needed to know the truth.

Me: I'm coming over.

Rebecca: Not yet! Give her some more time!
