My Two Mates

Chapter 10

Chapter 10

"So Charles St. James is their father." Donovan was surprised. Tamara didn't give off any hints to that when he was at the clinic. Why would she hide that fact.

Reaching into his pocket to grab his keys he turned back and looked at the restaurant. "Deni wait here a minute I left the keys inside."

Deni watched him walk back inside the restaurant. Tamara walked up to him at the door. She could see by his stance and by the way Tamara's arms were flaring around that they were arguing. Deni wanted to go stand by her mate, the idea of him just being so close to someone he was once intimate with was driving her crazy.

Focusing so hard on the restaurant she did not see or hear a car park on the opposite side of Donovan's truck. She was startled when she heard car doors closing. She looked up two tall very large muscular men walked from the car. As they walked by one looked down at her and nodded. Deni recognized him but didn't know from where.

She stood quietly and watched as the men went in the restaurant and stood behind Donovan. That's when she recognized the one man he was Oliver one of Stephan's older brothers. Knowing that this was probably getting ready to turn into a fight, she took a step towards the restaurant but arms wrapping around her waist stopped her. She knew the scent before turning.

"Stephan let me go!" She tried to pull away but he pulled her tighter to him.

Picking her up he carried her to his car. "Get in!" He demanded.

"Why are you doing this. You know Donovan will hurt you."

"Deni get in the car!" He held a knife to her neck.

Not sure if he would hurt her or not she reluctantly got into the car. Stephan blew his horn signaling to his brothers as he pulled away from the restaurant.

Donovan spun around at the sound of the horn. Watching Stephan and Deni pull away, he ran out the restaurant jumped in his truck and went in the direction Stephan was driving in. He searched up and down, but couldn't find Stephan's car. Donovan stopped driving. He couldn't believe he let his self get so distracted that he practically handed her over to him. Donovan drove back to Deni's house.

"Stephan what are you doing"

"Baby I love you. I need you with me. Just stay with me tonight."

They pulled up at a few old homes that were tucked away behind a few burned apartments.

"Where are we" Deni looked around not recognizing this area.

"This is our home baby"

Stephan got out the car walked around and opened Deni's door. He reached in and carried her cradle style into the house not putting her down until they reached the bedroom. He walked in with her and set her on the bed.

Deni looked around the room. There were pictures of her on the walls. A crib sat in the corner. Deni was nervous this boy is truly crazy she thought as she took in everything that was in the room. "Stephan what is this"

"I told you this is our home. My brother Max helped me get it when you were pregnant. I was going to surprise you with it but my Dad ruined everything"

"Stephan please stop blaming your Dad, I fell, the baby was born early she was too small."

Deni turned to look at Stephan he was standing by the window shaking his head. His hands were clenched by his side. She could sense many emotions coming from him. She sat as she watched Stephan go to his knees and start crying. Against every instinct telling her to leave she went to comfort him.

"What's wrong" She put a hand on his back and started rubbing in little circles to calm him.

"I can't lie to you anymore Deni. All the lies are separating us that's why you're with that Alpha."

Deni put her arms around him. "Lies what lies?"

Stephan wrapped his arms around her he kissed her cheek, tears fell from his eyes. "Deni our baby didn't die from being premature. " Deni stared in his eyes. "My father killed her."

Deni sat frozen. Not knowing what to say, not sure how to react. Stephan pulled her tight to him "baby are you ok" She shook her head.

“You are making this up to make me feel sorry for you. Tell me you are lying. Your Dad wouldn’t kill our baby!”

"I am so sorry Deni"

Deni searched his eyes she could tell he was being honest. She covered her face with her hands and began to cry. “Oh my God.” She whispered "Why? Why would he do that?"

"Deni my Dad was an evil man. There's so much you don't know, so much I probably don't know. But now do you understand" Deni nodded and wrapped her arms tight around him.

"You lived with this. I'm sorry I left you when you needed me" She started kissing him. "I'm sorry I moved on leaving you and our babies memory behind. This is too much for one person to deal with. I should have been there for you" They both sat on the floor in each others arms crying .

After several minutes Stephan stood up reached his hand down to Deni and helped her up. When Deni stood up he wrapped his arms around her and they hugged and passionately kissed for the first time in months. Breaking out of the kiss Stephan decided it was time to open up more to her so he could start winning his mate back.

Stephan took her to the window. "You see the burned apartments there. That's where my family used to live. One night my mother and father started arguing. The argument went on for hours. I was there with them when I couldn’t take anymore. I left and came here.

Some time during the night my father some way trapped my mother in the bedroom and we think he set the place on fire. That was the night before he went missing. I saw him the morning after the fire. He arrived at the hospital to identify my mother's body and he left. My brother's Max, Oliver, and Luke went after him but lost him just outside of town. He never returned. If I would have stayed that night my mother would still be alive. I could have stopped him.

Deni looked up at him just to see him start crying again. “Oh Stephan, it’s not your fault” She stood up on her toes and kissed him. They stood by the window kissing and comforting each other.

Stephan looked at the bruises on her neck "I am so sorry for those." He started kissing her neck. His kisses where nothing like Donovan's, but she relaxed in his arms, she was used to being with him.

Stephan moved his hands to the bottom of her shirt and slowly started to raise it giving her full opportunity to stop him but she didn't. Once her shirt was off his hands started caressing her body. He started kissing her again as he moved his hands to her breast. "Stay with me tonight" He looked her in her eyes. "Please I'll take you home in the morning" Deni nodded. He quickly swept her off her feet. And carried her to the bed.

"I love you so much baby"

"I love you to Stephan."
