The Rejected Daughter Of An Alpha novel Chapter 30

"I'd say that's more than fair. I just want you to be happy."

"I just want you. I don't want to wait anymore. It's killing me not being able to be with you. And I hate keeping secrets." I say and he pulls me into his arms.

"I get you forever. I can wait a little while longer if it means that your mom is happy. She's a big part of your life and I don't want you to think that you have to hide to hide or make our relationship public just because of me. I'll always be ready for you."

"I love you for that. If you want to tell your family and team tomorrow, we can. I'll tell my mom early in the morning and we can gather them at lunch. I really don't mind."

"I would absolutely love that idea. But not as much as I love you." he says and places the smallest kiss on the tip of my nose. I place one on his and unwrap myself from him so that I can go downstairs and see my mother. I am truly lucky to have gotten this man as my life partner.

Cassie's P.O.V.

My mom and I went back to my room after dinner and sat down on my bed. My mom had a perpetual smile on her face and I had no idea what my next move would do to that smile.

"Momma?" I ask in a gentle voice, unsure of how to approach the subject.

"Yes, baby girl?"

"I have something to tell you."

"Come in." The sleepy voice of my mate mumbled. I opened the door and when I walked in, I was almost completely overwhelmed with his amazing scent. He must have smelled my scent because he looked up in a very sleepy manor and said my name. "Cassie? Baby, what's up?"

"My mom took the news very well. She was also concerned that we were hurting or not resting as well being apart. She insisted that we sleep in the same room. Strictly sleep, that is. She doesn't want to be a grandmother just yet." I say with a smile from the end of his four-poster bed.

"Well, then why are you still all the way over there. Come here I'm tired and want snuggles." He says, rolling over and lifting the blankets on the other side of the bed. I walk over and lay down under the blankets and he pulled me into his arms. I snuggled my head into the crook of his neck and sighed in content. It took very little time to fall into a deep and restful sleep.

When we awoke the next morning, we couldn't help but lay there in each other's arms in peace. When we finally did get up, I went to my room to get dressed and since it wasn't my day to train today, I decided to surprise everyone and put on a dress. But if I'm going to wear a dress, then there is no way I am wearing shoes.

The dress I decide on has a red plaid skirt and no sleeves because it's stupid hot out here. I put on my favorite ring, that my uncle got for my mother when they were younger, and an anklet that I got shortly before we left Oregon. I throw my hair in a pony tail and walk downstairs. I look up as I make it to the bottom of the stairs and see Axe talking to his mother with a smile on his face.
