Their Secret Obsession by Pippa Moon

Chapter 27: Good Cop, Bad Cop.

Kane POV

I knew this reaction was a possibility when I decided to take matters into my own hands and force my father’s hand. Did it feel good that I had gotten her drunk and convinced her being out mate was a good idea? Well, it didn’t feel amazing! But it felt a hell of a lot better than watching her father and mine force her to marry that jumped–up prick! So there was that.
