“Good morning,” I said as the guys walked off the elevator and towards their offices.

Brendan, Alonzo, and Zane each smiled at me, but Linden merely grunted and nodded an acknowledgment.

It had been that way all week. Things had been ok on Friday, then the baby shower over the weekend, and when I came in on Monday morning, Linden was cold and distant.

After five days of minimal interaction, I still had no idea why.

“Linden,” Zane chided.

Linden merely flipped him off and stormed to his office.

Brendan sighed. “Sorry about him.”

“What did I do wrong?” I asked, turning to stare at where Linden had disappeared.

“You didn’t do anything,” Zane replied. “He’s just being an asshole.”

“If you say so…”

Zane smiled, then continued towards his office. Alonzo followed a moment later.

Brendan leaned on the counter surrounding my desk. “So… I know this is early, but we’d like to discuss how you feel about your position.”

The blood drained from my face.

He stood abruptly and held out his hands, waving them as if to ward off bad thoughts. “No, no. We’re not firing you, nothing of the sort. But we do have some things we need to discuss. Can you meet us in the back conference room at four? I think an hour will be plenty.”

“I…I…” I swallowed, then nodded. “Ok.”

“Good,” he replied with a smile. “And you should call your mate and ask him to make dinner plans because I think you’ll find the meeting to be good news.”

“What mate?”

He blinked. “Your boyfriend then?”

I shook my head.

He tilted his head to one side. “I could have sworn I saw you cuddled up to an alpha this past weekend, sitting on a lawn in the Sunset Hills neighborhood.”

I wondered what he was talking about, then remembered that was the area where Jace’s papa lived. I laughed. “No. That was my cousin. We’re… close. But it’s all platonic. I’m not seeing anybody.”

“Really?” he mused, dragging out the sound.

“We were only out there for a few minutes though. I’m surprised you saw us.” Then another thought hit me. “What were you doing out there?”

He laughed. “I bought my parents a house in the area a few years ago. I offered to get them something bigger or newer, but they insisted that a simple house in a quiet neighborhood was all they needed.”

“I see.”

He rapped his knuckles on the counter. “I’ve got a full day, so I’ll see you at four.”

“Four,” I echoed.

My stomach twisted into knots as soon as he was out of sight. He’d indicated that the discussion would be good, but would their definition of good, and mine, be the same?

Even if it was good, what would happen when I left?

I tried focusing on my work, but by the time lunch rolled around, I was so on edge that I ended up driving down to the pizza place Owen managed so that I could talk to him while I ate.

I only felt marginally better when I returned, but he’d reminded me of my promise to stay a
