a really nice big, rare burger for Drew.” Rosa made herself smile broadly, then motioned for her employer to follow her as Brendan reappeared in the hall, followed by a large man hugging a moderate-size golden cat.
She was glad when Melanie did as she hoped and joined her, Liam and Noel in the break room. Given a choice, Melanie picked out a chicken sandwich among those laid out on one of the tables in the middle of the room, as did Rosa. That left burgers for the guys.
Including the large one for Drew, which Liam was holding. “I’d like to go say hi to Drew, if that’s okay with you,” he said to Melanie. “I can give this to him then.”
“Of course. And thank you both so much for bringing Drew a burger from Fastest Foods. It’s one of his favorite places when...when...” Her voice started to drop off, and Rosa recognized her signs of sorrow.
“When he’s not shifted,” she finished brightly for Melanie. “And when he is shifted. I get it. Let’s give him what we have now, and I promise that, when he’s back to his unshifted self again, I’ll go get him even more burgers there. Okay?”
She looked at Melanie’s brave smile and almost broke down herself. Rosa had had a few relationships now and then, but hadn’t met anyone she wanted to spend her life with. Melanie had, and she’d even gotten past whatever confusion she might have felt about falling hard for a shapeshifter.
She was clearly, deeply in love. And the man she loved was in distress. Ill. In the middle of a condition that no one knew anything about, so no one knew how to fix it. Fix him.
A wonderment about how she’d feel if Liam somehow became her veterinary patient flashed through Rosa. Ridiculous. Yes, she found him good-looking as a human. Kind. Sexy... No, she wasn’t going there. She wasn’t going anywhere with him, or with these ideas. She glanced at him, though—and saw that, for some reason, he was watching her.
She turned away and quickly stepped toward Melanie, then gave her a hug. “We’ll figure it out,” she promised, hoping she wasn’t lying about something as important to her employer as that.
“I know,” Melanie said hoarsely. “And thanks.” She turned to where the two men stood behind her, eating their sandwiches. “And thanks to both of you, too.”
“No problem,” Liam said. “Noel, you said you’d give us a rundown of how Drew’s been doing while you’ve been with him.”
