Chapter fifty five
When he got to his sprawling mansion, he sat inside his car for several minutes, thinking about how he could tell his mate the news he just heard.
A few minutes later, he gathered the courage to climb out of his car. He made his way into his house, dropping his keys by the side table.
"Darling, I'm home,'' Drew said.
He could feel her aura around the house but he didn't quite know where she was. He made his way to the kitchen but it was empty as there was no sign of her anywhere. He moved towards the library, where she was usually found since she loved reading a lot but she wasn't there either.
Drew was beginning to get worried but he remained calm since he could still feel her aura radiating around the area. He made his way towards the bedrooms, pulling his shoes in the process. When he got there, he found her inside the bathroom submerged in the bathtub. He knew she couldn't have heard him due to the tap being on. He decided to surprise her, he shed his clothes as he made his way into the bathtub.
He climbed in soon and he was happy when he saw the smile on her face. He could tell that she was surprised but she tried to hide it.
"Hey, honey.'' Drew smiled.
He kissed her cheek, drawing her closer to himself. Laura gripped his shoulders, moving closer to him as the water spilled out of the tub onto the ground.
"Hey mate. How did your day go?" Laura smiled.
She kissed him, drawing his lower lip into her mouth. She sighed when his hands began roaming over her naked body. She grinned at his shoulders tightly when she felt two of his fingers make their way into her fold.
"Drew.'' she gasped.
"You like what I do to you right?" Drew chuckled.
"Oh yes yes.'' Laura sighed.
She felt another finger go into her to meet the rest as she ground her ass into his perked erection that was begging for attention.
"Stay still honey, I'm going to take you from behind,'' Drew said.
Laura gasped when she felt his erection enter her from behind. She wasn't expecting it and was simply prepared for Drew to flip her over but this was completely new to her and the best part was that she loved it.
"Are you okay love, please tell me if it's too much,'' Drew said.
He bit a portion of her ear, loving the tremor that went through her body. Drew growled as he felt her release coming on steadily.
"Yes, I'm fine. Go harder.'' Laura gasped.
"You asked for it but don't say I didn't warn you.'' Drew chuckled.
He pounded into her, taking her by surprise but she held on like the strong woman she was. Drew was proud of her, for taking it all in. Laura gasped, gripping his shoulders tighter, almost drawing blood as she felt him release at the surface.
"Come for me my darling.'' Drew smiled.
Laura screamed, moving through her release as she came down from her high. Drew found his release soon and together, they lay there reveling in bliss.
"The water is getting cold, let's wash up and find something warm to wear.'' Drew smiled.
They bathed each other, taking their time as they revealed the love they both shared. They climbed out of the tub soon with Laura wrapped in a fluffy towel. They made their way into the room as Drew bathed the room in an incandescent glow.
"Okay, spit it out. What's wrong Drew?'' Laura said.
Drew knew she had an inkling that something was going on with him but she remained quiet, waiting for the right moment to tell it him.
"It's hard for me to say, Laura,'' Drew said.
"I don't care, say it anyhow you like. We've faced far worse things before so I'm not surprised anymore.'' Laura said.
She made her way to the kitchen to get a cup of coffee. Drew tailed her, thinking of the best way to tell her the news. They soon sat down on the high-backed kitchen chair, sipping cups of steaming hot coffee.
"Do you know anything about your parents besides what they did?" Drew said.
Laura was silent for a few moments as she mulled over his question. There was nothing to know about her parents except for the work they did. She didn't understand where the question was headed but she knew it couldn't be good.
"No. Asides from their job, I don't know anything else,'' she said.
"Jack and Killian called me earlier today to give me some news about them,'' Drew said.
"Oh my gosh, what’s going on?" Laura gasped.
They had trained her and put her in school for the earliest part of her life.
"It's bad news Laura,'' Drew growled.
Laura stood up abruptly, snatching her cup of coffee off the table. She didn't know what had gotten over him to talk like that but Laura knew that Drew always had a reason behind his words.
"Now, tell me what is wrong?" Laura said.
"Please, sit down.'' Drew sighed.
Laura reluctantly sat down because she was dying to know what they had discovered concerning her parents.
"Your parents were involved in the production of poisons,'' Drew said.
Laura stared into space, not looking at anything as her mind went completely blank. She wasn't expecting this and the realization left her speechless.
"I... That's horrible, so that means my father did add poison to the drugs he produces?" Laura gasped.
"Exactly and we need to stop him immediately before it's too late,'' Drew said.
"But how, they are dead remember?'' Laura sighed.
She was miserable upon hearing Drew's words. She didn't understand why her parents could be so wicked. They had been the most loving parents she could ever wish for but now, she didn't even know what to call them.
"We're working on it. We'll get an answer to that soon. But baby, that's not all.'' Drew said.
"Another bad news.'' Laura sighed.
"This might be hard for me to say but no this, I never want you to stop thinking that I don't love you. I do and I will for the rest of my life.'' Drew vowed.
"I love you too Drew but please, just spit it out,'' Laura said.
"Your parents are not your biological parents,'' Drew said finally.
***************************
"Your parents are not your biological parents.''
Hearing those words from Drew's lips had Laura staggering back. Her cup of coffee came crashing to the ground as she stared into space. Her mind was a whirlwind of thoughts as she tried to understand what Drew was driving at.
"Come, let's go sit down,'' Drew said.
He led her to the living room and they both took a seat. Drew held her close to his chest because he knew she needed it coupled with the fact that she was shaking and in dire need of comfort.
"Baby, please talk to me,'' Drew begged.
Laura was jittering as she tried to calm her racing heart. Her hair was getting white at the top, something Drew knew was caused by her high emotions.
"What can I say? There's nothing for me to say.'' Laura said.
"Just tell me how you feel. I know it's hard but I need you to talk even though what you'll say might be gibberish, just talk.'' Drew said.
"When did you discover this?" Laura asked.
Drew could tell that she was desperately trying to stay strong but she was failing as her eyes brought forth tears, spilling down her cheeks.
"About the same time Killian and Jack told me about your parent's involvement in poisons,'' Drew said.
"I think it makes sense now. Alpha Jed’s attitude these past few days has been worrisome now I see where his attitude is coming from.'' Laura said.
"Baby, I need to ask. Do you have any idea of who your parents are, anything at all that could help us get them?'' Drew said.
Laura thought long and hard about this but she couldn't remember anything. It seemed her mind was blank when it came to that. As she thought about it, a flash of memory hit her like a thunderbolt. She remembered an incident that occurred between her and her parents when she was much younger.
"Yes, I remember an incident. I was about seven years old when I discovered I was an Alpha I remember asking my parents about it, seeing that they weren’t Alpha on their own.'' Laura said.
"What then happened?" Drew asked.
"My dad looked at me funny while my mum said something unintelligible. I didn't understand it then but now, I guess they were hiding something from me.'' Laura said.
"Do you have any idea what this night will be?" Drew asked.
Laura shook her head, gripping her hands together. She felt cold all of a sudden and it wasn't related to the temperature. She felt like she didn't have anyone to call her own and the only person she had now was Drew.
Drew rose from his seat, going over to where he placed his phone earlier. He decided that she needed to call her mother and ask for answers. He knew it would continue to eat her if she didn't find the answers to all her burning questions.
