Is a mistake from the Moon Goddess Chapter 463
I limped into the pack house. Every step was a struggle because 1 still refused Nix and Megan’s offer to heal me. I needed to smell of antiseptic and blood.
You are as dumb as Rowan is. Nix growled as I forced myself up the stairs. I walked slower than I needed to, but I really needed the pack to start gossiping.
An omega came over and offered his hand. “Thank you, Jeffrey.” I gasped as he walked me up the stairs.
His smile was soft. “You remembered my name?”
I smiled back at him. “Of course I did. You brought me my lunch a few times.” He nodded. “Why wouldn’t I remember your name, then?”
“Most Alpha’s wouldn’t.” He whispered it, like it was a secret.
I just laughed. “I’m not like other alphas.” The laugh forced me to pause, so I could cough. Blood spewed from my mouth but I wiped it off with my shirt.
“Are you okay?” His voice was soft, worried.
I nodded. “I just need to get to my office to get the last of my work done.”
“Last of your work done? Are you going somewhere?”
I nodded again and then started up the stairs again. I let my chin wobble a bit. “I am. I got approval to transfer out of the pack.” He gasped beside me.
“Why?” His hands tightened on me. “I know the omegas here were looking forward to having you as our luna. And now you’re leaving?”
I sighed and took a pause as we made it to the top of the stairs. “I can’t stay here, Jeffrey. Shannon is going to be your luna and I can’t stay here and watch it happen.” I was laying it on thick, but I needed him to spread it around.
“When are you leaving?” His question was pained.
I blinked, forcing a tear to drop. “Tonight.” I turned to him. “Can you do me a favor?”
“Anything.” He smiled sadly at me.
“Can you tell the pack? If anyone wants to say goodbye to me, they can stop at the house. I’m having dinner with Rick and Alannah. But anyone can stop in. If you could tell the parents of the pups. I used to help with their class and I want to say goodbye to them.”
He nodded. “It would be my pleasure.” We started to the office. I was completely worn out by the time we got there. “Amy?” Jeffrey hesitated as I shuffled to my desk and sank into the chair.
“Yeah?” I sighed as I closed my eyes to breathe for a moment.
“It’s been a pleasure to serve you.” My eyes snapped open as he bowed. He bent at the waist and almost hit his head on the comer of my desk as he came up. “I hope this move will give you everything you ever wanted.”
I felt the burn of real tears as I smiled at him. “Thank you, Jeffrey.” He turned and left me alone in computer. I pulled my laptop out and got ready. I connected my laptop to the desktop with an ethernet cord, and then once everything was ready, I started the
my office. I had to force the tears away as I booted up my program: I created with the backdoor password. Once it was running, I turned back to the office computer to fight off the attacks.
“Shit.” I realized I forgot to send Rowan a text. I quickly pulled out my phone and sent a quick I’m here text, then got back to work
I pushed out the attackers pretty quickly, so when the fax came in I hobbled over to the machine to grab it. I had just folded it up when I heard a smash from above. I smirked as I stumbled my way back to my desk
I sank into my chair with a sigh and looked at the screen. The laptop had made it to the mainframe, and was now copying everything. I smiled, but my victory was short–lived as another attack started.
I was bent over the keyboard when Vince stormed into the outer office. Panic bubbled below the surface as I looked at the laptop and saw that it was only about halfway done.
“Where is she?” He screamed, assuming Rick was in the office.
My eyes danced from the door to the screen. Fifty–seven percent, Fuck
The door slammed open to Rick’s office, and there was a silence. I moved my laptop closer to my work computer, so the screen was completely hidden from the doorway right before the door opened.
“Hello.” I called out. My eyes stayed focus on the screen, as if the attack was harder than it actually was.
Vince stared silently at me. “You are here?”
I looked down at myself and then back up at him. He flinched when he saw my face. “Yeah…”
