The Luna and her Quadruplet Pups by Jane Above Story

Chapter 20

Chapter 20 Ethan is Disappointed

How is this possible? Ethan thought desperately. I was so sure Elise Carrington was Jane. I was so sure the beautiful she-wolf I met in Eve’s Atelier was my long lost mate. I know she smells different, but she’s a perfume designer, it would be only too easy for her to fake the scent change.

Still, there was no denying the DNA report in his palm, which stated in no uncertain terms that the two samples he submitted were not a match. Elise Carrington was not Jane Blackwell, no matter how alike the two women looked… no matter that she appeared to be mother to three other children who looked so like him, and no matter how many lies she spun. It didn’t make any sense, if she wasn’t Jane, then what explanation was there for her actions? How could this be?

Ethan was so distraught he stumbled straight into a bar and began downing drink after drink, drowning his sorrows and contemplating this strange turn of fate.

Meanwhile Jane took advantage of Ethan’s absence from the hospital to visit sweet Paisley. An emergency surgery arose just before Paisley was scheduled to go under, so her procedure was delayed a few days until the next opening could be booked. They were keeping her under observation until then just to be safe, and

Jane couldn’t stand the idea of not seeing her baby one more time before the big day. Ethan scarcely even left Paisley’s side, but her forged DNA results seemed to have done the trick. In that way the fraudulent document killed two birds with one stone, giving her a precious moment with her daughter, all the while protecting her true identity.

“Are you scared?” She asked Paisley, using all her willpower not to climb into bed with the pup.

“No.” Paisley shook her head, “I’ve had lots of surgries afore.”

This blithe statement cracked Jane’s heart right open. “Brave girl.” She crooned. “Is there anything you want or need, anything I can do for you?”
