Chapter 8
A month passed. A whole month. In some ways, it was the best month Bo ever had in his entire life. There was nothing about it that was overly wrong, and a great deal of things that were just right.
Work continued on as a constant, undeniable and variable as always. Sometimes he thought how strange it was to have a pattern made out of randomness, but maybe that was just how the universe worked now. He wasn’t sure of anything, except that he continued to work twelve-hour shifts with a variety of others who worked for Envision Healthcare. The days continued to be either stressful, or rather lenient.
And when work was over, or just before work was about to begin, that was when the fun happened. That was when he got to spend time with Ryker.
Sure, the alpha was an annoying jerk who didn’t know how to share, or rely on anyone, or have anything less than a huge overreaction, but Bo had come to expect that. Those were all things that made Ryker…Ryker. Nothing the alpha ever did was small. Even when it just came to eating, or walking, or just how he expressed himself; he ate with gusto and in great quantities, and he walked at jogging speed, and never spoke in anything softer than a husky growl.
That was Ryker. And Bo loved his qualities as they were and found them amusing to no end, simply because the alpha took himself so seriously with everything and didn’t realize how funny that made him.
But, at the same time, Bo couldn’t love Ryker. How could you love someone who kept their past hidden from you? But that was the only thing holding him back, the only thing standing in their way.
Everything else was beautiful and right, everything that anyone could have ever asked for in a relationship.
They ate together every day, always breakfast and lunch. At first, Ryker always stayed in the living room but then he slowly gravitated to sitting on the counter or leaning back against the wall while Bo cooked. He even seemed to be taking a bit of interest in cooking himself, although he just ended up getting in the way more often than not. Bo didn’t really mind, though. It was during those meandering conversations that he started to learn about the man who was his mate. And the things he learned were often not very important at all, such as the fact that the alpha insisted mushrooms tasted like feet and his favorite types of cloud were the thin wispy ones so rare in the Seattle sky; however, they were pieces of Ryker, and Bo cherished each one.
In the very beginning hours of the day, or very late in the waning hours of the evening before sleep, Ryker occasionally dropped puzzle pieces of his life. Bo collected them, following the fractured thoughts like breadcrumbs through the forest to wherever they might lead him. Eventually, he had enough to make up most of the
