Bella’s POV
I woke up to Dom whispering in my ear. I yawn and stretch my arm looking up at him with a smile. Then he said the most shocking words to me I found your father sweetheart. I’m sure I look like a deer caught in headlights. I can’t believe he found my dad. Omg he found him. Our mate really is amazing Serenity says. Agreed.
He hands me the paper with the photo attached. Well now I see where my green eyes come from. He owns a law firm just downtown and I made an appointment to see him in a hr Dom says. I start to panic a little. A hour! All these questions go racing through my mind. Am I ready? What will I say? What if he doesn’t believe me? What if he doesn’t want anything to do with me? I screamed out. BREATH! Serenity yells at me. I stop and take a deep breath when I feel Dom’s arms snack around me. The comforting smell and sparks calm me down. It will be ok baby girl l. I will be with you the whole time.
~Time skip~
We have arrived at my fathers office and I feel like I’m going to throw up. Dom takes my hand and we walk inside and up to the 32nd floor where is office is. The receptionist give Dom a flirty smile and then give me a dirty look jealous look. w***e he is mine! Serenity growls in my head. I roll my eyes at her. I’m here to see Alex Cradle I say. Name she says Arabella Cradle and Dominic Stanford. She give me a funny look then presses the button on her phone and says Arabella Cradle and Dominic Stanford here to see you Mr. Cradle.
We sit and wait. I feel like my stomach is eating itself and if It wasn’t for Dom holding my hand I would of bolted out the door due to fear.
My thoughts of bolting are interrupted by a tall man about 6”3-6”5 walks in. He looks just like the photo. Dark brown hair, sharp jaw, the same green eyes and gorgeous smile. He stops when we make eye contact. Anna? He said. I looked shocked that he remembered my mom. No, I’m Bella. Anna is my moms name though. He has a look of shock on his face. Why don’t we talk in my office he says ushering us into his office.
He sits behind his desk and Dom and I sit and stare at him. It was silent for almost 5 mins until I broke the silence. So I think you know why I’m here. My name is Arabella Marie Cradle. My mothers name was Anna Lauren Spencer. I was born 18.5 years go. He just looks at me. I glance at Dom a d he squeezes my hand in reassurance. A smile creeps across Alex’s face. You look just like your mother. I never forgot about her. I looked for her for years after we meet. He stands up and walks over right in front of me. Can I hug you? He asks with a smile on his face. I stand up and hug my dad. It feels so nice and before I know it tears are running down my checks. Alex this is my mate Dominic Stanford. Call me Dad Bella please he says with a hopeful look on his face. I will try I said shyly.
We finally sit down again. There are smiling faces all around. So...how did Anna die he asked sadly. I take a breath, remembering the events clearly in my mind. Our coven was attacked by a group of witch hunters. My mom ran to the coven hall we’re I was with my best friend Sara. She arrived just as the hunters did. They shot her several time with billets laced with hemlock. I screamed and sent a wave a power out killing them insight. Dom wipes a tear away from my eye gently. This was the day that everyone became afraid of me and my life went to hell. I didn’t even notice that Dom had picked me up and placed me on his lap. She stroked my hair cooing softly.
I’m so sorry he says with a look of pure sadness in his eyes. I dry my eyes and look at him sadly. The past is the past. I try to keep moving forward. It’s how I got to where I am today. We exchanged phone numbers and he said he will be in touch and come visit when we get settled back in our pack. Oh our pack. I’m going to Luna!
