Alana (POV)I woke up took a shower and changed into fresh clean clothes. I found a note on a table in the living area from Gabe. He explained about the high-tech alarm system he has and that he had no choice about not missing an important meeting with a new client. I decided to check out the kitchen and plan to surprise Gabe with a home-cooked meal. It was the least I could do with all he has done for me. The food in the freezer was so full of meat. Not much more than meat. The main fridge looks like it was recently stalked with fresh food like vegetables, fruits, milk, and other things for meals. I looked in the pantry and saw bread, peanut butter cereal, and even sweet things. It all looks like it was just bought. I took some meat out of the freezer and a couple of potatoes along with other things for a salad and set out to cook a nice dinner for Gabe and me.Later I heard the front door open as I was setting the table. I heard keys being set down in a bowl on the table near the fr
Gabriel (POV)I meant every word. She is my mate. I will wait for her however long it takes. Since she hit her head during the crash after the kidnapping. She believes the dragon she saw was all in her head, that she had imagined it all. Of course, one day when the trust is built up between us, I will need to clarify the fact she had indeed seen a dragon and that it was me. I will need to tell her about my brothers and me and how we have come from a dying world to begin a new life to save our species. But now is not the time.I ate all the meat which I appreciated her cooking with seasonings, but how could I tell her I usually eat meat raw? She would think it strange. The only time I ate cooked meat was at business luncheons or dinners out. At home it is usually raw. Until I can let her know the truth, I will have to get used to the meat being cooked.I helped her clear the dishes and clean things up even though she kept insisting she could do it. We took our drinks into the living ro
Alana (POVI woke up feeling satisfied. Being in Gabe’s arms made me feel safe and secure. I snuggled closer against him and smiled. Making love with him was incredible. It was nothing like I have ever experienced. Not only did I feel my pleasure, but it was also as if I could feel his as well. Then when we reached our climax…Oh my god, it was like nothing I ever felt. Like I could feel his along with mine. I never screamed in pleasure before in my life. Then when he kept hitting my g-spot…Wow, Is this man really my bonded mate? He is so handsome, kind, and considerate. He keeps calling me his mate and I feel butterflies inside whenever I think about his touching me. He keeps promising to keep me and my baby safe. It takes someone special that accepts another man’s baby like this. Even if that other man is crazy.I feel Gabe’s arms tighten around me and kiss my forehead. “Are you feeling hungry?” He spoke against my hair.“Yeah, I actually am.” I stretched against him, “Seems I worke
Gabriel (POV)“Show me your back,” she demands of me. How can I show her something that has no marks of bullets whatsoever? The moment the first shot rang out I had to shield her, bringing my dragon scales out to repel any bullets away from Alana. She is already my mate completely, but will she be able to handle the truth about me? Will she run? Will she accept me?I took off my jacket and turned around. I felt her fingers at the holes in the shirt I still wore. Her fingers touched my skin. “How?” She whispered.I turned around to look at her. Now would be the time to tell her the truth about me.“I need you to sit down and I will explain everything. But promise me to have an open mind and what I tell you cannot be told to anyone.” I looked her deep in the eyes, “I need to know I can trust you, Alana.”She nodded and she let me guide her to the sofa and sat down. I stayed standing and began to pace in front of her.“Are you someone who believes in aliens?” I began with the question.“
Alana (POV)Gabe turned out to be a good cook. Of course, he had a big slab of raw beef. But he made a great ham and cheese omelet and toast with tea. Since I became pregnant, I stopped drinking coffee. When he told me who, and what he was, I was scared and ran to the bedroom locking the door. I threw myself across the bed curling into a ball and cried like a baby. Of course, I blame my hormones for that. But I also did a lot of thinking and thought about how he never hurt me, he only protected me and even saved my life more than once. And really if he and his brothers wanted to conquer Earth, they could have done that years ago when they first landed.Thinking about it now, it does seem as if they only want to live a normal life. Then I pushed and searched his feelings through the bond and found what he said was the truth. But he held back. So, I made my decision but before I gave it, I wanted him to trust me enough to tell me everything. So, I unlocked the door and walked out, and I
Gabriel (POV) I didn’t want to leave for the office. But it seems an emergency meeting was called, and I had to leave. As the meeting was halfway through and with a lot of arguments, I begin to have an uneasy feeling deep down. The later it got the worse the feeling became. It became so uncomfortable I knew something was wrong and I knew it was the bond between my mate and me. I was suddenly feeling her fear and knew without a doubt she needed me and now. “Excuse me, gentlemen,” I begin. “We need to continue this at a later date.” I didn’t wait for an answer, I just stood up left the conference room, and headed toward the stairs. There was no way I could get to her in time taking the car, so I had no choice but to turn and fly. As I climbed the stairs to the roof of the building the feeling began to feel more urgent, so I hurried up the last flight of stairs. I burst through the door on the roof and transformed quickly into my dragon form shredding my suit and shoes to pieces. My
Gabriel (POV)"Come on you can do this," I said to Alana as she pushed hard on a contraction. "I'm tired," She cried leaning back against my arms and panting.I kiss her forehead and murmur in her ear, “I know you are, baby, but you are strong, you are a Spencer. This is our child. I love you. Now on the next contraction do as the doctor says and give it a big push.”Doctor Joyce Ramond is from what I hear the best OBGYN there is. I would only want the best for my mate. She lifts her head and smiles. “The baby’s head is already through. That was the hard part. One more strong push and the little one should be out.” She looked at Alana. “On the next contraction give it all you got.”Alana nods and at that moment begins to grunt and push with all her might.“That’s it, baby, you are almost there,” I say as I watch as the baby comes rolling out. “It’s a girl.” I almost shout as our daughter is born. “She is beautiful just like her mother.”Alana lays back down panting and I kiss her gen
Property Damage- Book Two‘You’re Fired!’I keep hearing those words over and over again in my mind. I still can’t believe I got fired for that little accident. I mean I didn’t mean to spill the hot coffee on the lap of an important client.So, now I am back at job-hunting, and I have only enough in the bank for my half of the electricity bill. So, my auto insurance was canceled on me. Yet, I need to keep driving to different job interviews. The only thing is, I never get callbacks.Today, I was running a little late for another job interview. I noticed an older style in pristine condition, a red mustang beside me in the other lane. What I noticed most is the driver. A handsome man with dark hair in a business suit. When he looked over at me, I smiled at him. He gave me a slight nod and turned his blinker on to enter my lane. I purposely slowed my car just enough to let him go in front of me. My good deed for the day. I smile thinking of his handsome face. If only I hadn't been late,
