Their Secret Obsession by Pippa Moon

Chapter 49: What Did He Tell You?

I had debated not saying anything, but since she had woken to find we were mated, I could sense she was looking for a reason to bolt, and I wasn’t about to give her one.

“You ok, petal?” I asked, walking by her to where her mask sat on her makeup desk, motioning for her to come and sit. I kept my eyes trained on her face, watching to see what her next move would be. I meant what I said earlier.. She was mine and was all that mattered to me. Maybe I did care about what Mike had alleged she had done, but I knew better than to believe him entirely. There had to be more to this!

“Wanna talk about it?” I asked, moving my fingers up her neck to her ponytail, giving it a playful tug. My eyes never leaving hers in the mirror.

“Wanna talk about what?” She asked, arching a brow at me, trying to call my bluff. I loved her sassiness but now wasn’t the time.

“That you wanted information and offered him something in return.” I expressed, my eyes still locked on hers, not liking seeing her get upset, but I wanted to put this bed along with any thoughts on bolting and enjoy the night with. her, like I had planned.

The bastard had left out some information- as I suspected. She moved quickly to wipe her tears away before they fell, evidently not wanting me to see, but she was not quick enough to hide them from me. I noticed everything when it came to my Queen! Spinning the chair around
