Chapter Ninety-Eight: My boss is a what?

Charity and I stood in front of the open door to Aaron’s apartment. We had finished breakfast and I had helped her clean up the mess that she left in his kitchen. The pain re lievers had kicked in and my headache was almost all gone.

“Are you sure that I can’t change your mind?” Charity asked, worrying the hem of her shirt with her fingers. “I’m worried that your guys will blame me for you leaving.”

“Dude, they won’t blame you for me leaving. This is a me thing and no, you can’t change my mind.” I said, pulling her into a hug. “Besides, it’s not like I’m leaving forever. I’ll be back in a few days. I can’t afford to stay away from work any longer than that.”

“You better. You can’t leave me here alone. I’ll come and find you.” Charity squeezed me tighter before stepping back and looking at me. “Being mated looks good on you, though. But I get it, you’ve had a lot thrust onto you. I’ll be here when you need me.”

I stepped back, tugging my purse to the front of me and digging around my bag until I found my keys. “I know and I will. But I’ve got to go. I know that if I stay here, I won’t be able to sort through my feelings about them with with out everything being all sexy fun times, and while those are

great. I, I just need some time to breathe.”

“I mean, you could just stay here with me. I’m sure Aaron wouldn’t mind another super hot chick hanging out at his place. Or, or you could stay at my place?” She sug gested, a hopeful look in her eyes. Charity was giving me puppy dog eyes and it was starting to wear down my re solve but I knew that I needed to get away. If I didn’t, I would always wonder if what I was feeling was real or was it just the bond that I shared with my mates.

“Thank you, but I’m pretty sure that they would come over here if I did that. I’ll stay at my parent’s lake house for a few days. Then I’ll come home. I just need some time to process, well, everything.”

“You know, you could always just not think about it and enjoy the sex.”

“I could, but I have a feeling that they would move me into their pack house and never let me leave the bedroom. And I would always wonder if it was all real. Plus, I don’t think my boss would be cool with me never coming into work again.” I said, looking down at the dark, polished hard wood floors.
