Billionaire Alpha's 99 Deadly Games

Chapter 75

"Hey, Kels, what's wrong?"

"Headache,” I lied, not bothering to get up from my sprawled out position on the couch. Maybe she'd think I was sick and stay away.

"I take it big brother isn't coming in today?"

I immediately sat up, realizing how out of character it must look with me being in his office so intimately. I hadn't even thought about it until now.

"Sorry, I just needed to lie down for a few minutes. And no, I don't think he's coming in today. He's, uh, fixing my car," I tried to hold to our cover story, but I felt like she saw right through it.

She sat down across the office from me, "It's fine, Kels, I'm not gonna rat you out to the bossman and doubt he'd care anyway. Lay down, relax. You look more stressed than usual. Is it because of everything we told you?"

"What?"

"You know, everything that happened the other day. It had to be a lot to take in."

"Was it really just the other day? God, it feels like a lifetime ago already," I said, throwing my arm over my face to blot out the light. I really didn't have a headache, but we had stayed up entirely too late and with the added stress of talking to his parents, I was beyond exhausted.

"So, you're okay with everything?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'm a big girl, I can handle it. I feel a bit stupid after knowing it all, but I'll be fine."

"So, I was in the tattoo parlor yesterday checking out Cole's new designs after seeing the fabulous job he did on yours, and he was going on and on about how amazing you are and how he loved your work. What exactly was going on during those fill in sessions?"
