That only angered her more as she flared her nostrils and came up to me and plucked the file out of my hands.

“Get up, now!!”

I let out a sigh. “Dru, I am working-”

She shook her head, “You work 24 by 7. Now, I want you to get up and come with me outside right now. Everybody is asking for you.”

“Let them. If they find their mates,
