I CHECKED MY OUTWARD appearance in the men’s bathroom mirror one last time to see if it matched the chaotic emotions I was feeling on the inside. I looked calm and confident, not the frantic nutcase that I hid beneath my suit. “Suit porn,” as Wesley referred to it that morning before I received my summons to Sebastian’s office. It felt like a summons anyway.

As I rode the elevator to Sebastian’s floor, I thought of all the things that he might want to say to me. It was obvious by the tone of his voice that he’d overheard about the balcony incident. Did he think I was too dangerous for his brother? I’d never had a reaction quite like the one I had with Jason and it was a bit unnerving. Hell, I couldn’t remember a time I’d gotten in a fight with someone, let alone threaten to kill them. I was positive that was why Sebastian wanted to see me. He didn’t want me seeing his brother any longer.

It would cost me my job, because I wasn’t giving Wesley up. I meant what I said when I told him that I was in love with him. I wanted him in my life, and more so, I needed him. My mom did gather us around after the wedding festivities ended, Wesley too since he was considered part of the family, and let us know that her cancer had in fact returned. She was calm and confident as she discussed the treatment plan that was ahead of her. She did not waver for one second in her belief that she would kick its ass.

I could tell by the expressions on my brothers’ faces that they had also known something was going on with my mom. I was positive that they were just as frightened as me, but no one more than my dad. The look he wore told me that he was terrified of losing my mom. They’d already been through it once, but it was minor in comparison to the battle ahead of her. I had to have faith that my mom would be okay because I couldn’t accept the alternative. So, yes, I knew that I would need to lean on Wesley when doubt would creep in and try to lay me low.

I entered Sebastian’s office with my head held high and shoulders back. I would not look like an intimidated coward in front of him, even if I was shaking like a leaf on the inside. I was prepared to defend my actions and manfully declare that I wasn’t giving Wesley up. Manfully? I hadn’t gone so far as to type a resignation letter, but I was prepared to do it.

“You had a lot going on this weekend, huh?” Sebastian said once I sat down. He wasted no time getting down to business. “I’m very sorry to hear that your mom’s breast cancer has returned, Tom. It sounds like she’s one hell of a fighter with a positive attitude.
