Chapter 39
Merrick's POV
********This chapter contains adult content****************
Phillip and I step out of the room to give Ella some privacy. It was obvious that she and her father had a lot to talk about. I follow Phillip into the small kitchen when we set down the tray of food he had made for Ella.
"That could have waited, she just woke up," he grumbled.
We have been here for two days and most of that had been spent by Ella's side. We still hadn't talked about what had happened back in town or the fact that our fathers were lovers. I felt a distance from him and I knew that I needed to apologize but he wasn't giving me an opportunity.
"Phillip will you please talk to me. You know I didn't mean it", I pled.
"You did mean it and you are not wrong; you are her husband. But I am also her mate. I'm yours too." he growls.
