All Chapters of A Baby for the Dragon: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Chapter Thirty-OneBethany: Now you know how it feels. Don’t worry, I’m going to give Nolan the family that you never could. We’re going to be so happy.How could she? The harsh pings of rain sounded overhead on the roof and it felt like the clouds were crying for me. The fight drained out of me and I held my phone to my chest, laying down on the floor. I let sleep claim me, taking me away from all of the hurt that I was feeling.***Spencer POV***“I got it boss, I’ll watch your place. Any way that I can get a sneak peek at your friend before you are through with them? I’ve always been curious.” Frankie asked and I let out a growl. “So that’s a hard no or a maybe?”“Go in there and I’ll skin you alive and use your hide to reupholster my sofa.”Frankie let out a chuckle. “Ah, don’t worry Spencer, I’ll stay out of your place and watch to make sure whoever you have stashed away doesn’t get out. Not that whoever it is could. I designed the security system myself.”I rolled my eyes at my s

Chapter Thirty-ThreeI spun around the room, closing my eyes. Allowing my dragon to rise to the surface, he let out a snarl and my lips pulled back into a snarl before I darted forward. She was still here. With my beast’s sharpened senses, I could smell her scent. Hear her heartbeat, a steady rhythm that drew me closer. Slowing my pace once I reached the kitchen, I walked down the hallway towards the backdoor. My mate was there, lying on the floor, her dark hair covering her face. The deep tan color had seemed to drain from her, making her took far paler than I liked. Her body was curled up and her I could smell the tears that she had cried earlier. She looked so small there, curled up with her back against the wall. She was wearing my shirt and nothing else. Her purse, shoes, and clothes lay on the floor beside her. Long fingers were curled around her phone, she was holding it in a loose grip but it made me wonder if that was what had caused her the pain that I had felt.Had she tr

Chapter Thirty-FiveSweet Andreena... I liked when he called me that. He had said it several times, but each time I heard him say it or thought about him calling me that, my heart did a little jump. I bit my lower lip, looking at the note. His handwriting was neat and careful, much like him. I traced my fingers over it before setting the note onto the nightstand and picking up the bottle of pills. Twisting off the lid, I grabbed one and put it into my mouth before grabbing the water bottle. I twisted the lid off, taking a small sip to wash the Tylenol down. He wasn’t wrong to leave it out, I could feel the steady pressure of a headache trying to build behind my eyes. I took another drink of water, looking around Spencer’s room. He had put my things on the dresser and near my feet, on top of the covers was a thick dark shape. I reached out and my hand came into contact with a soft, almost furry type material. Lifting it up, I realized that he had laid out a robe for me. Finishing of

Chapter Thirty-SevenThe longer that I was here with him, the stronger those feelings were growing. I was afraid that if I didn’t get away soon, then I was never going to want to leave his side. That I would give in to whatever he wanted of me.It would be so easy to be with him. To just give in to what I was feeling. Even thinking about leaving him made my chest feel tight in a way that I didn’t want to feel. It was too soon. It was too much. He kissed the top of my head and I felt something inside of me melt at the tender action. “Good, you need to rest. We won’t be going out tonight, but I can order dinner for us. I had Frankie pick up a few things for you. Anything you don’t like, I’ll have him return them.” “Thank you.” I whispered, wrapping my arms around him. I breathed in his warm scent, letting it soothe my soul. Seeing those messages from Bethany and Nolan had hurt so badly, but being held by Spencer was the balm that I needed.“You are welcome. I didn’t want you to wake

Chapter Thirty-NineI selected the show and looked over at the bedroom door. She was taking her time and I could hear her moving about my, no, this was going to be her space too when we stayed here.Our bedroom.I need to start thinking of this place as hers, too. Andreena was my mate and everything that was mine would now be hers. My money, my body. It didn’t matter; it was all hers.Standing up, I made my way back into the kitchen, grabbing a couple of plates and stacking them together. I grabbed us both a bottle of water before taking it back into the living room.Later, when my mate was resting, I’d put away all the stuff that Frankie bought for her. I did have to give it to him. Some of the things he picked were things that I wouldn’t have thought about.Sure, he had gotten her some comfortable clothes like I told him to. But he had also grabbed her bubble bath, chocolates, and soft clothing that looked far too fuzzy. He had sisters, so maybe he knew more about this kind of thing
