tien though we sent letters, it still was not enough. I wanted to touch him, hug tien, tell hinn how much I love him and see his eyes lighten with love.
1 sighed typing away on the computer before me. I had been working non stop. It is the only thing that helped me keep my mind off of my husband that was currently serving, our country
I was blessed to be able to work at home, because surely the sweats and socks were not appropriate for a workplace. The phone rings and I quickly reach beside me to pick it up, not caring to look at the caller.
“There‘s an author by the name Demiah13. She just started writing her first werewolf novel and I think you should sign her. She shows potential.” My boss murmurs into my ear as soon as I pick up the phone. 5
I sighed, getting off the bed. “With all due respect sir but I think you should inform this to another editor. I am booked as it is. I have not even finished editing the book you have signed me to.” I mumbled raking a hand through my tresses.
I tugged the shirt away from my body, suddenly feeling hot. I hear the unmistakable huff from Mr. Smith before he grumbles in agreement.
“Alright I will give this to another editor. Make sure to have the book ready by next week.” He says before cutting the call off.
I pull the phone away, glaring at the screen. “Asshole.” I murmur throwing my phone back on the bed. I was not even half way to finishing the book as yet.
My eyes stray away from the phone to look at the picture frame on the dresser. I blinked feeling my emotions go haywire as I stride over to it. It‘s a picture of Blake and I on our wedding day.
His lips are pressed to my cheek as I smile happily at the camera. My stomach squeezes. I could only hope that wherever he was, he was safe. I picked up the picture frame brushing my finger over the glass that protected it.
“I miss you.” I whispered. I nearly jumped out of my own skin when my phone blares again. I swiftly place the picture frame down on the dresser and stride over to the bed.
My brows furrowed when I grasp the phone and noticed that I did not recognize the number. I chewed my lip and flicked my thumb over the answer button before bringing it to my ears.
“Hello?” I asked cautiously.
“Is this Ashley Reed? Wife of Blake Reed?” An unfamiliar voice questions on the other end.
My brows furrowed in confusion yet something in the back of my mind told me something was wrong, “Yes.”

“He had been shot and is now in critical condition. The dortors are doing everything they can to save him
My entire body felt cold as I ran towards the hospital, bag, at my sides. I had just got off the plane about thirty minutes ago. I was lucky that I had gotten a flight so quickly
I didn‘t care that I felt jetlagged for flying for hours or that my face resembles a clown All I cared about was being at Blake‘s side.
A sob rakes over me as I enter inside. I had informed Blake‘s parents about what happened and they were on their way. Hopefully they‘ll be here soon, I don‘t think I can be alone right now,
Hopefully this was the right hospital Blake‘s captain had informed me. I sniffle striding over to the front desk quickly. The blonde woman typing on the computer clicks her tongue as she chews gum. Not once had she noticed me.
