Unscentable

Chapter 43 - Unscentable

Piper POV

Standing outside her store with Izzy, Brandon and Edward because it seems that man was going to go everywhere that Izzy went. Also meant that Bradley got to have one of his Alpha Unit with her and Brandon the whole time as well.

Thankfully, this seemed was enough security for the man to allow her to go wherever she wanted with Brandon.

They were currently waiting on Devon, so she could have that meeting with him about taking over Izzy’s position to be the actual Manager, not the Assistant Manager, though Izzy was still put out about this, unhappy she had to relinquish her new-found job title and promotion. Devon, who was stuck in
traffic, was now running late.

Izzy had gotten into an argument with Edward about it back at the hotel before they had all left. It was what had woken her up at 2pm today. They were arguing about Izzy wanting to stay here and work at the store, running the store, that it was her first real big promotion and how she had worked so hard to get where she was.

Though she had heard Edward agree with her, he had also told her he had responsibilities in Montana and was needed there, that he couldn’t be out here all the time. That Bradley needed him, he was an integral part of the leadership that helped to run Drake Industries. That she would be given a very
important role herself within the company.

She’d yelled about how she didn’t want to be just given something because she was to be his wife, that earning a living was better than inheriting one. The man had just stopped and stared at her. Piper had seen it, a brief flash of full annoyance and a little anger in him, he had inherited his position within the pack, not earned it and Izzy had just paid him a massive insult. Not that Izzy knew that.

Brandon had looked right at her and shook his head. He knew Edward was not human and lived within Bradley’s Pack, and that Izzy, as Edwards' Mate, would need to move to the Pack. He seemed to understand all of that already. Likely Aspen understood it. But their argument was really starting to get out of hand.

Edward was prowling around their hotel suite trying to explain this to Izzy, but Izzy was really upset that Devon was going to be getting her job, and she was loosing everything she had worked hard for, for not only was she loosing the position here as a full store manager, she was just now realising that she was also losing her position in Portland at Pipers store because Edward was flat out refusing to allow a long distance relationship to see if they would ‘work out’ in Izzy’s words. He’d told her he already knew they would work out, that he was not going have a long-distance relationship. It was completely unacceptable and that she needed to come to Montana.

Demanding her to move had been the wrong thing to state and Piper sighed, saw Izzy’s reaction to being told what to do. She hated nothing more than that. Her father had been trying to tell her what to do all her life, control her, and now here was Edward doing the same thing. She was going to have to save his butt a second time.

“Enough.” Piper had finally snapped “Izzy, I will build you a store in Helena, Montana, close to where you will be. You can run it.” she had to find a way to end their arguing before it turned horrid and Izzy canned their relationship and broke their bond and Piper could actually see her doing it.

Izzy had turned to stare right at her, more than a little shocked by her statement. But it was Edwards' relief at her words that made her wonder if Edward was also realising he was losing his Mate, then he just walked across the room and hugged Izzy. “I can deal with that.”

Izzy had tried to shove him away but he’d simply held on to her until she stood there and accepted him, hugging her, submitted to him, very dominant he
was, had to have his way.
