Chasing His Kickass Luna Back novel Chapter 150

Chloe rises from her seat and comes around the desk to hug me. “And even then,” she continues, her arms wrapping around me, “maybe you shouldn’t let him back in. This is it, Abby, This is the sign you needed to remind yourself that he’s no good for you.”

I hug her back, finding a semblance of comfort in her words. But the fact of the matter is, it’s just not that simple. I keep thinking back to my wolf’s sudden appearance and disappearance, and what she had said to me. Part of me wants to mention that to Chloe. But for right now, I can’t.

Instead, I gently pull away and smile, grateful for my friend’s unwavering support. “Thanks, Chloe. Thanks for listening to me.”

Chloe grins. “Hey, what else are friends for? And if he shows his face here again, I’ll be sure to give him a piece of my mind.”

“Get in line,” I say, half-jokingly.

“So, what’s the plan now?” she asks, her tone shifting back to seriousness.

“Right now, my main priority is the restaurant,” I say.

“Good. Focus on yourself and your career, Abby. No one else; especially not men.”

I chuckle. “You’re right. No men. For now, I just need to focus on the cook-off.”

Chloe nods, a grin spreading across her lips. “You’re gonna win, Abby.”

…

John nods, looking a bit forlorn. “Alright, if you say so. Just hope the new one can keep up.”

“In the meantime…” I square my shoulders, feeling a rush of determination. “I’ll be working the line with you.”

John’s eyes light up, a grin spreading across his face. “Well, well,” he says. “Looks like Boss Lady Abby is back in business, huh? It’s like the old days.”

I can’t help but smile back. It’s been a while since I’ve consistently worked in the kitchen with John. And as I slip behind the line and get to work, I make a decision.

Maybe my sous chef for the competition has been right here all along.
