Chasing His Kickass Luna Back novel Chapter 147

Karl

As I watch the train speed away, a new form of emptiness settles in my stomach.

Abby is pissed at me; I know that. I know that what I did with Adam was messed up, and I guess I hoped in some sort of naive way that she would never find out. Well, she found out. And she’s furious. Hell, she might not even want to see me ever again.

“You’ve got to fix this,” my wolf growls, his voice stern in the back of my mind.

“You think I don’t know that?” snap back internally as I begin to make my way back to the car. “But at this point, I don’t even know if Abby will listen to me anymore. You saw how pissed she was this morning.”

“Make her listen, then. She’ll cool off and will be more willing to hear you out with time.”

“And what until then?” I ask. “What the hell am I supposed to do while I wait for her to miraculously ‘cool off’?”

My wolf pauses for a moment. I put the car in drive and pull out of the parking lot, and that’s when he speaks up again.

“You can start with that awful secretary of yours,” he finally says. “Show Abby where your loyalties lie. That secretary has been a point of contention since the beginning.”

As much as I hate to admit it, I know that my wolf is right. Gianna has been a problem, even more so now that I know what her true motives are. If she really has had feelings for me all these years, I would have to wonder whether these feelings of hers ever impacted certain things.

In fact, I remember Abby mentioning on multiple occasions that she had to make an appointment with my secretary just to see me; which, now that I think about it, was never true.

At the time, I thought that Abby was just misremembering things, or maybe exaggerating because she was angry. But now I know better. Gods, I should’ve listened to Abby from the beginning.

Was Gianna trying to sow discord in little ways like that, even back then? Trying to make Abby unhappy with me?
