All Chapters of Fated to My Alpha Boss: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

Wendy ushered me into the elevator, waited for David, and then pushed the button for the lobby. “You absolutely need to attend to Theo,” she said. “You can’t let a tasty little piece of man like that sit all by himself.”“I already have somebody,” I pointed out. “And he’s got a girlfriend.”Wendy waved a dismissive hand. “Details,” she said. “Wait! That’s what you should do. You should fix dinner—”“Beans,” I reminded her, cutting her off before she really got going.“Oh. Right,” she said. “So, obviously, if we can’t grow coffee beans here, we’re importing all of the beans that we use for our coffee. I don’t think we’re having too much trouble with getting the beans from some of the nations, but there’s rumors that the vampire and the human coffee growers both have strong biases against werewolves.”She made a face. “Figures, the shifters don’t care, but the others do. Anyway, the beans coming in from the other countries are supposedly way more than the ones coming in from the shifter

At work the next day, Wendy met us, getting off the elevators. She looked like she wanted to latch onto Theo and instead held herself back.“I’m so glad you’re feeling better,” she said, lowering her lashes at him more than a little suggestively.He smiled at her, ignoring her hints. “Glad to be back,” he said. “That was a nasty bout of whatever. I don’t look forward to doing anything like that again anytime soon.”I crossed my fingers and said a silent prayer to the goddess that I wouldn’t have to sacrifice him like that again. But the fact that he was always around me definitely made it more difficult.“So,” Wendy started, hooking her arms through mine and drawing me into the office. “Have you decided what you’re pitching this morning at the meeting? ““I have a couple of ideas,” I said.“Wanna share?” she asked.I shook my head. “Not a chance. Sorry, but I’m going to have to keep these secrets,” I pronounced.She eyed me. “Hard-hitting news already?” she asked, giving me a gentle e

For the next four days, I tried to say something to Charles, but my attempts always seemed to get cut off by something else.One night, Charles got a phone call from his co-workers and came back beyond annoyed. Another night, someone in the building tripped the fire alarm, and we all ended up outside.All those feelings of being lucky and blessed that I found at the moon temple were quickly slipping away. We were inching closer to the moon festival and Gwen’s arrival, and I hadn’t had a chance to open the subjects that were most important to discuss between Charles and I before his mother got her hands on everything.Not that I would mind the wedding to Charles, but if Gwen was feeling the need for grandchildren, what if she talked Charles into it before I had a chance to talk to him? It would just make the conversation that much harder.Two of those four days Charles ended up out of town, making talking impossible. He had to leave to go take care of some things before the interviews

Charles woke me early, making sure that we used another of his new condoms before work. However this time, we focused on quick pleasure to connect, at least briefly, before we parted ways.I went out and did another interview with Theo tagging along. If he knew what had altered my mood, he didn’t bring it up, but he didn’t mention how happy he was to see me smiling again.My exuberance lasted all day, turning into pure joy when I came home and heard childlike voices through the door. Charles’s family had arrived.I hurried inside to find them all sitting around the living room with Charles, talking. Soren and Emily jumped up and ran to greet me, each giving me a quick hug.My heart fairly melted. This was what having a family was like. This is what I had missed out on my whole life. And when things were safe and my career was settled, this was what I wanted for Charles and me.I was so glad to have a partner who understood my need to wait. Maybe it wouldn’t be so bad if his mother pre

Jennifer’s gaze was sympathetic. “I know we dropped a lot on without much warning. Although I think Mother had this discussion with Charles earlier this week.”“They did,” I said. “And Charles warned me she might bring up stuff like this. But this was just a shock to the system.”“You’re okay with all of it, right?”“W-well,” I stammered. “I don’t know.”“You do want to marry my brother. Don’t you?”“Of course,” I said with no hesitation at all.“And you intend on having his children, right?”I bit my lip.She tipped her head back in understanding. “So that’s where the hang-up is. You do know that he’s an alpha and if you intend on being his wife, you will eventually have to give him children?”“That’s just it,” I said. “Eventually.”“You’re in your late 20s. And Charles is the same age. How much more time can you afford to take? Even if the alpha thing wasn’t a factor.”I crossed my arms, resentful. “I can take as much time as I want.”“No, you can’t,” she said. “We’d all like to thi
