Chapter 6

The next morning Ant was still asleep when I snuck out of bed. I left him a quick note saying I had to pick up something from the office, but I would be home in time for the interviews. Cheryl had emailed me last night saying she lined up several candidates for the PA position. The great thing about Cheryl was that she was part of the pride, so I never had to hide from her.

I’d also told her about Ant and what he was, so like the great assistant she was, she called the mice and asked if there was anyone looking for a job as well. So we had a mix of lions and mice coming over starting at eleven. And while I did need to run to the office to drop off the keys to my apartment so she could handle the movers, it wasn’t the main goal of slipping out of bed early.

When Ant had fallen asleep in my arms the night before, I’d realized something… I’d not gotten his earring for our mating. If anyone, especially any lions, saw him and he was minus that, it would be a sign that we’d not fully solidified our mating.

“You’re not welcome here, Gavin,” he said firmly and went to shut the door in my face. Instinctively, I stopped it with my hand.

“Why not? And since when?” My eyes went wide with shock at his treatment. What the fuck was going on?

“I don’t serve your kind in my store,” Jacob sneered and his meaning hit me like a ton of bricks.

“You have got to be kidding me,” I snarled loudly. “You’re severing our relationship because I’m gay?” I was a good customer over the years. I always got something nice from his store for Cheryl for her birthday and Christmas. Plus, he had higher end watches there, and I bought two dozen for the executives of my company for Christmas a few months ago.

“Yeah, fags aren’t allowed here.”

“Listen here, you pissant,” I hissed as I pushed the door open wider and grabbed him by the shirt. “Are
