14. CANDACE

 

Candice's POV

 

Did Alpha Devon just ask me if I was okay? And then ask if I worked here. And I detected softness in his voice.

 

Of course, his aura is suppressing but the love I have for him is greater than that aura. He is so handsome, I can't help but fall harder. I danced into Susan's office to find her in the corner, looking pale as a white sheet.

 

"Suz, what's up?" I asked carefully. "Are you okay?"

 

"I... I'm fine." She whispered. "Has he left?"

 

"Who? Alpha Devon?"

 

She nodded too quickly. I laughed softly. Was she afraid of him?

 

"Are you afraid of him? What's there to be afraid of? He's just like you and I and everyone else." I praised.

 

She glared at me. "You only say that because you're obsessed with him."

 

I gasped aloud, touching my chest as if I was hurt. "Obsessed?"

 

"Mmhmm." She nodded.
