My Pet Mate

Chapter 37

*Adam's POV*

Usually, waking up next to Anna feels incredibly peaceful. During that short moment in the morning, there are no worries. There is just us. Just Anna and I.

So imagine the panic I felt when I heard two other voices when I woke up.

"Oh come on Owen, they look adorable together." A female voice whisper yelled.

Crap... that's Anna's mother!

There was a grunt, "I told the boy I'd be watching him. I'm kicking him out."

I kept my eyes shut and pretended to sleep. 'We're fucked.' Cade not so helpfully pointed out.

"Owen!" I heard someone, Anna's father, being slapped in the chest, "She's 23 years old! They can make their own decisions."

"They've been together for a couple of months according to Anna. That's not a long time Tia." Owen defended himself.

'What do we do Cade?' I frantically asked.

'They can't decide what we do with out mate. Let me take over, I'll take care of it.' I felt his bloodlust rise as Cade responded.

'We're not killing her parents!'

"As if we weren't doing things like this after a few months of being together. They look comfortable and happy, just let them be young and in love."

Tia is officially my favorite person on this planet besides Anna.

Another grunt came from Owen, "Whatever, when they get down for breakfast I'm talking to the both of them."

'We're jumping out of the window and we're running.' Cade came up with a plan.

'Agreed.'

The door closed and I heard the hushed voices head downstairs. When I deemed it safe, I opened my eyes and looked at Anna. She was still peacefully asleep, not knowing that I had just received the death penalty.

'If we're dying anyway, let's spend the last moments cuddling with out mate.' Cade suggested.

Not a bad plan at all.

I pulled Anna closer to me, placing my head in the crook of her head and taking in her scent. It immediately helped me relax and I let out a content sigh.

It didn't take long for Anna to stir and open her beautiful eyes. Two emerald orbs still filled with sleep met mine and a lazy smile appeared on her face.

"Morning beautiful." I said softly before kissing her temple.

A sleepy giggle escaped her mouth, "Mornin'"

Nothing else needed to be said for a few minutes. It always takes a while for Anna to fully wake up and I know she likes waking up surrounded by my warmth without the pressure of having to talk.

Anna eventually stretches, reminding me of a cat as she turns on her back and smiles, "What time is it?"

I quickly check her alarm clock, "7:23."

"Hmmm... you should get out then. Mom and dad are probably already up." Anna suggests as she faces me again.

I tense slightly, "Yeah... about that. Already too late for that."

My beautiful mate frowns, "What do you mean."

"Your parents were in here a little while ago. We got caught. Cade and I are escaping through the window in a bit so we won't be killed." I told Anna.
