Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

346-Done With Her 

My hands were holding onto this photo frame of Enya’s family. It was her, her father, and her mother. I heard Enya talk to Maynard and Christina, probably remembering some mem ory, but I couldn’t get my eyes off of her mother’s face. 

She seemed too familiar. 

‘Laz! What is going on?’ I thought maybe I should ask my wolf.

‘She was our mate’s mother?’ Laz seemed shocked, too.
