My Fated Human Luna Chapter 151

4 Hard Decisions

Ruby POV

“Why the hell did I do that” is the first thought I have when I sit back down at my desk. I could hear how upset he was through the wall during his conversation with Connor. I couldn’t hear exactly what he was saying but he sounded angry. I debated whether to check on him and my desire to make sure my mate was alright won out. I shouldn’t have gone in there. I interrupted his call and what would I have said if he wasn’t on the phone? Gemma chuckles and I roll my eyes. “I’m glad your enjoying this.” “I am, it’s not often I get to see you frazzled. Besides, you want to be close to him just like I do.” I block her and turn to my computer. I start to type up my notes for our meeting when there is a knock on my office door. I already know it’s him on the other side when the scent of coconut invades my nose. I take a deep breath before I answer him. “Come in” I say. The door opens and I’m glad that I blocked Gemma. He is the most handsome man I have ever seen and I don’t need her comments right now. He smiles and I’m glad I’m sitting down. “Ruby, I’m sorry about that. My mom loves to talk to new people.” “You have nothing to be sorry for and your mom is lovely.”

“Yes she is. I’m very lucky to have her.” I see a flash of sadness in his expression. Before I can dwell on it his smile returns. “I try to call twice a day while she’s in the hospital.” “You’re a good son for doing that. Can I ask why she’s in the hospital if I’m not being too invasive?” “No, I don’t mind. She was diagnosed with breast cancer a month ago. Her oncologist wanted her to have intensive chemo for two weeks before she can start her outpatient treatments. She’ll be staying with me when she gets out of the hospital.” It breaks my heart to see the pain on his face as he talks about his mother. “She seems like she is in good spirits. If you ever need to be with her, please know that I will completely understand. Family is the most important thing we have.” “Thank you, Ruby. I really appreciate that.” We stare at each other for a minute before he finally speaks again. “Oh, I came in here to find out what I could do for you. I know you didn’t just come in to meet my mom.” I chuckle panicking inside for a reason to tell him.

was sick and Tabitha helped him.” “Of course, I do but you know as well as I do we can’t expose our kind to humans that we are not officially mated to.” “I love you for being a rule follower but there are gray areas when it comes to mates. You’re a very smart woman and I still believe he will be ours, so we need to come up with a plan for Autumn to meet his mother.” I think about what she just said. Even if we don’t get our mate, we can still help him by healing his mother. I can see how important she is to him and I

Maverick POV

you didn’t want to be disturbed but she is getting pretty angry when I tell her that you aren’t taking calls today.” I feel like she is enjoying telling Delilah that she can’t talk to me. She steps toward me again and I’m losing my patience with her. “If that’s all, Jennifer, you can go back to your desk.” “Are you sure there is nothing I can do for you?” A throat clears and she finally steps out

We both take a seat and listening to her speak is one of the sexiest things I have ever heard. I know Connor laughed when I described her as capable, but her being capable is attractive. It just adds to her beauty. I don’t understand what the hell is going on with me when I’m around this woman. I’m not saying I haven’t noticed pretty women, but this is more than that. I need to focus on work and what I’m going to say to Delilah when I get home. We work for the rest of the afternoon. By the time we finish it’s time to head home. “Thank you Maverick. I am definitely ready for our meeting tomorrow. I’m glad that my grandfather has recognized what an asset you are to the company. You are very good at your job” she says. The pride I feel is strange.

I set my briefcase down and head into the living room. Delilah is standing with two cups of wine and a smile that a few days ago would have made me happy. She is wearing my favorite red dress. “Hi Maverick, I got your favorite dinner and I have wine” she says as she starts to walk toward me. “Delilah, this isn’t a date. We need to have a serious conversation about the future of our relationship.” “Maverick, please I love you.
