My Fake Mate

Adeline’s one goal in life was to work in the famous Bio Research Institute as a scientist, but that dream ended when she was scammed and lost all of her money to pay for her final semester. She was broke, directionless and desperate. It wasn't until she met the Alpha of the Carmine pack, did her luck begin to change. He made her an offer she couldn't refuse— pretend to be his mate and he would make all of her problems go away. Being a fake mate sounded easy, right? But not for Adeline. She had to face challenges by both him and his family. Was she able to stick to the contract? Or would their plan spiral out of control? — “Now would be a good time not to suppress that sensitive body of yours. Wrap your arms around me.” I shoot him a dirty look at his approach. “If you wanted me to touch you, all you had to do was ask.” “Please,” He bent down closer to my ear as he purred, “Touch me, darling.” My Fake Mate is created by Heather Bond, an eGlobal Creative Publishing author.

Chapter 75: One Thing After Another

Adeline POV

Just as I was about to give up on my search, I heard the front door open and close.

John was home.

And he was the perfect person to ask.

After finding no information from any company about a meeting, I knew that the story Zale had given me had been just that, a story. But now I needed to find out what was the truth, then. And there was one person right here in this very house that would be able to tell me just that.

I quickly left Zale’s office, knowing that I had to catch John quickly. He often came and left without staying long. His primary goal had been to keep me safe, and he could do that without staying for long periods of time.

I also knew that he was seeing Leona often, and I was glad for that. It kept her a little out of trouble, and the quicker she healed, the sooner Zale would start to forgive himself for things that were entirely out of his control.

I left the room and headed into the hall, and I spotted him turning a corner.
