within a second and strung his belt at the same speed. Connor left the room and shut the door behind him before walking down the hall.
Leaving Connor in their bedroom really annoyed her . He just learned they were going to increase their family by one more and were about to celebrate in the mind-blowing way . He wasn’t in her mind so she could think privately. This person had better have a good excuse for making me get out of bed… Walking through the silent hallway, Sarah passed t he bathroom and power room to her right and to the left is w h ere her study room and Connor’s workshop resided . The hardwood flooring felt cool and comforting on her bare feet. Entering the kitchen, dining room and living room , Sarah had to turn the lights on because it i s still very dark in here. Luckily everything remained in its place so she didn’t accidently stub her toes. Once the lights were on , the room was in order except for their packs that they left by t he empty fireplace. Connor and Sarah didn’t ha ve time to put them away after they had to wash all of the clothes and the house. The only thing they had time to put up was the painting that Kara made for them . I t was a picture of Sarah’s mate and her flying during the final dance two days ago . His costume was the Greek God Pan , where as hers was a Wood Nymph. They put it on the wall behind the sofa. Everything looked in order as she made her way to the front door. Sarah unlocked the deadbol t and the doorknob and sighed. She opened the door. Their early morning visitor was none other than Connor’s mother, Jenny. She was wide eyed and very awake at this early hour . Her dark brown eyes scanned Sarah and her smile seemed pleasant. Jenny had her golden hair hanging loose and down by her shoulders and she looked stunning as she stood calmly on the entryway. She wore a red top and light blue jeans. She was also carrying what looked like a picnic wicker basket. Jenny was taller than her , but not by too much. “Jenny, what is it? Is something wrong?” Sarah asked in a light tone. What she really wanted to ask was ‘ What are you doin g at my home so early in the morning without any warning?’ She smiled brighter. “I’m sorry for the intrusion and for being so early, bu t I’ve had much to deal with .” She sighed. “I had a lot on my mind yesterday and I didn’t get any sleep , honestly .” “I know what you mean. It was a lot to take in, but Connor wouldn’t have allowed us to tell you if he didn’t think you could handle it…” Jenny’s eyes widened and she shook her free han d. “No, no, no. I t wasn’t that , it was about something completely else entirely.” Sarah calmly waited for her to continue, because she didn’t make any sense at the moment . “It wasn’t about your secrets, but it is about you.” Her brow furrowed and Sarah felt self - conscious. “Me? What did I do?” Jenny smiled and asked “May I come in?” Jenny’s eyes shifted behind Sarah and she had a strange motherly look that made her smile genuine. She had a look of relief of a burden that has finally been lifted after such a long time. “Sure.” A deep and strong voice said from behind me. “ What’ s the occasion for your visit, Mom. Do you have more questions you need answered ?” Sarah looked back as Connor walked up behind her wearing a pair of black pants and his hair was brushed back. His godly chest , v isible to all. It would have been a great morning … Sarah thought and sighed on the inside. Jenny retorted with “Yes, I do have more questions , but my visit is a little more specific at the moment .” Connor and Sarah stepped back as Jenny entered their cottage. She walked straight up to the empty dining room table , put the basket on the table and turned around after Sarah shut the door. She walked to Connor ’ s side as he looked down at his mother from several feet away. Jenny looked strangely at Sarah for a moment, but they
