My Fated Human Luna Chapter 154

7 Healing

Maverick POV

The door opens and Ruby steps in front of me. I smile because it feels like she is protecting me from these three women, which I’m sure isn’t necessary. “Maverick, this is my sister Jade and my two best friends, Brooklyn and Autumn. Autumn is the healer we spoke about.” I reach out my hand, shaking each of theirs. “It’s very nice to meet all of you. Autumn, I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you doing this for my mother. I’m a firm believer that positive thoughts and believing that something can work can make all the difference in the world. My mom is the most important person in my life and I would do anything to make her well.” My mind drifts to all the pain my father caused her but I shake those thoughts away and focus on the here and now. “How is your father doing with your mom being sick”, Jade asks. “Jade” Ruby snaps at her. I place my hand on Ruby’s forearm. “It’s alright, he’s not involved in our lives after the choices he has made”, I say to Jade. I don’t elaborate on what those choices were. “Thank you again, Autumn, for offering to do this.” “It is truly my pleasure to help in any way I can”, Autumn says. “I should head back to my office and type up a report about our meeting for the files.” “Maverick, we can leave around lunch time to head to the hospital if that works for you”, Ruby says. “That would be fine”, I say before I head back to my office.

So much has happened this morning between dealing with Delilah and that a**hole. I’m honestly exhausted, but I have things I need to get done before we make the trip to the hospital. I take a seat behind my desk. I try to focus on the files but my mind wanders to what happened in Ruby’s office. I look down at the hand that touched Ruby’s forearm. The feeling of her skin against my fingertips gave me a feeling of warmth throughout my body. I have never felt anything like it before. What the hell is going on with me? She is my boss and now is not the time to be worrying about how her skin makes me feel. I open the file and start to work on my report. I have known Stephen long enough to know that he probably would have punched that ba**ard in the face for the way he spoke to Ruby, so I know he will understand why we didn’t make the deal. Normally, I would be the one to let him know but I’m sure Ruby will be doing that now. Despite saying he’s retired, he still wants to know what’s going on with the company which I completely respect. I finish the report so I can give it to Ruby before we leave for the hospital. As I walk out of my office, Jennifer rushes toward me.

personal space or proposition me in any way, we will have a conversation with Human Resources. Do you understand me?” She steps back with a hurt look on her face. If I hadn’t been clear that I wasn’t interested I would feel bad right now, but I don’t. “Yes sir.” She turns and I’m hopeful this time she will listen to what I just said. Once she walks down the hall and out of my sight, I turn back toward Ruby’s office. That’s when I realize Ruby is standing in the hallway outside her door. How much of that did she just hear? I walk toward her and hand her the papers. She takes the report but says nothing for a long time. I stare into her beautiful green eyes for a moment before I finally speak. “I’m ready whenever you ladies are to go to the hospital.” I’m

forearm, the tingles that erupt travel right to my core. Oh my goddess, I have never felt anything like that in my life. Gemma growls and I block her. I can’t growl in front of this man. How the hell would I explain that? When he leaves my office, I turn to Jade. “Why would you ask him about his father?” “I’m sorry, I could just tell that there was something wrong and I couldn’t help myself. I know he doesn’t know it yet, but he is important to me.” I smile and pull her into a hug. “I know you didn’t mean any harm and I appreciate you worrying about my mate. I have a feeling I know what he meant by choices.” After a half

her a** on the spot. When our eyes meet, it’s so hard not to tell him what he is to me. I force myself to turn away from him. I walk into the office to grab my purse and take a minute to calm myself and Gemma down.

Autumn and I to his mother’s room. When we walk in, his mother is resting with her eyes closed. She looks so peaceful and when I look at Maverick all I can see is love as he looks at her. “Mom, we’re here”, he says softly, and her eyes fly open. She smiles “the medicine really does knock the hell out of me.” I hate that she is sick and I’m hopeful that Autumn will be able to help her. “Autumn, this is my mother Gwen. Mom, you met Ruby before and this is Autumn the healer.” She shakes Autumn’s hand first. When I take her hand, she pulls me in for a hug. I chuckle and hug her back. When I pull back she smiles “you both are very beautiful young ladies.” “Thank you, Gwen,” we both say. “Are you ready to let me try to offer you some of my healing Gwen,” Autumn asks.
