Running (Walker Series Book 2)

Chapter 25

Sage's POV

After the whole panic attack things and the kiss I got from my boss, I have been restless, party because of the kiss but mostly because of the disturbing message I got before the panic attack.

The message came in through an unknown and untraceable number and it sent shivers down my spine, only one person can send such a message and I know who it was from.

He was coming for me or at least that's what the message said but I need to talk to Aisha.

After the whole panic attack, I rushed out to go meet her in her office and lucky for me she was there.

I stormed into her office pacing around, she just looked at me in a questioning way

"Sage what's wrong"? She asked concern lacing her voice.

"He's coming for me" I breath out running my hands through my hair

"Whoa calm down, are you sure? I mean does he even know where you are"? She ask getting up and standing in front of me.

"I don't know but I got a message which definitely is from him and that Winston came to our office today he had this mischievous look which only meant trouble" I explain to her in one breath.

"Hey calm down okay, we're not even sure this message is real" she says holding my shoulders "it might be a prank, probably one made by Winston" she explained.

I thought about it and reasoned she might be right, that old man is up to no good, especially with the way he was looking at me.

I breath out and went down to sit on her sofa while she followed me, she sat across from me

Now I had another problem, that stupid kiss I got from my boss.
As much as I don't want to think about it, I can't help but think of it.

For some reason I don't feel disgusted about it, I mean it's the first time I've had any kind of intimate moment with a man after Dante and his friends.

"Are you good" she asks me

I just nod "yeah I'm fine, just freaked out a bit, I need to head back my boss doesn't know I'm out" I tell her, she nods and I get up and walk outside.

I want to tell her about the kiss but I don't know if I should because I don't even know what it is.

I'm fucked.
Today's not my session, I'll talk about the kiss with her when I'm more relaxed, that is if it even bothers me to that point

____________________________________________

It's been a week since the whole kiss thing between my boss and I and I can tell that he's been trying to avoid me, I don't know why but it kind of bothers me.

I dreamt twice about him, and it's not the Dante kind of dream, it the kind of dream that keeps me hot and bothered, making me feel things I haven't felt for anyone before.

Ever since the kiss, I feel awkward and hot whenever he's with me or I see him.
It's been on my mind and these days I find him extra hot and handsome.

He just takes my complete attention whenever he's in the room, I don't like that I'm feeling this way but I can't help it.

I put extra attention to how I look to work, I try to dress to impress but not just to impress anyone but my brown eyed, Greek god looking boss.

I feel like a hormonal teenager just thinking about it.
Today we're having a meeting which I'll be making a presentation for.

I wore a white top and my black fitted pants, I think about looking different for a change maybe then my boss will notice me and stop avoiding me so I just let my hair loose.
