Chapter 42

~Kehlani~

After a strenuous training session and strenuous cleanup, I leave Jayden and Brooklyn to head to my office. When I walk in, Melanie and Jax are in there waiting. “What are you two doing here? I know we didn’t have a meeting.” Melanie and Jax look at each other and seem to be mind-linking. “Uh guys…..do you want to include me in this conversation or what?” They both look at me and look apprehensive. I raise my eyebrow and wait for someone to speak.

“Well….see….we were talking and…..” Melanie starts but is so flustered that she can’t get the words out. Jax clears his throat and sits up on the couch.

“Look, Red. There seems to be something…..weird about Jayden.”

“What in the world are you talking about?”

“Well while you two were sparring we noticed a few things.” I take a seat at my desk.

“Noticed things like what?”

“Well, no one has ever lasted that long with you before,” Melanie says.
