Chapter 23-3

Mike shook his head and led me out if the room. "Of course not boss."

Mike led me out of the infirmary and took my hand before taking me to a path that leads into the trees. "You should consider taking Mikko's offer to go somewhere safe."

I nodded. "I know. I didn't think Nikki would get hurt because of this."

"I didn't think so either." He looked down for a second before becoming alert again. "I'm not saying this to make you unhappy or to make you think that you're not welcome here."

I nodded even though he wasn't looking at me. "I know. I’m just afraid."

Mike stopped and looked at me. "I know. But now you know who's out there, trying to get revenge on Mikko. It's not just a possibility anymore Em. This threat is real."

I nodded. "I just need a couple of weeks to get my head around this."

He nodded. "That's fine Em. You just need to think about what's good for the pregnancy, not what's best for you, necessarily."
