“Yeah. Lots of change today, but Achilles is chill, and that means that the others are good.” Renner was nervous.
“You don’t look so good. Are you heading into work?”
Renner nodded. “That’s a great idea.”
She went to change into her work clothes, grabbed her laptop, and drove to work. She needed to breathe air that wasn’t alpha-scented. She remembered to put on her Albert seeming as she drove.
She got into the office and smiled at the flowers for Rhymbia. There were also other presents, and Renner went through them all before boxing them up. It seemed that Rhymbia’s appearance on the show had gotten her several admirers, and several of them worked for the foundation.
She sent a query text to Rhymbia and got a relievedYes, please bring them by.
There was a knock on the door, and Altar walked in. She was the head of the foundation, so it was appropriate when she said, “Renner, what have you been up to?”
“I have just been here catching up on physical mail, and I am going to deliver Rhymbia’s mail to her.”
Altar paused. “But, you, Renner. What have you been up to?”
“Um, nothing?”
“So, it wouldn’t have anything to do with Lady Fen begging for your contact information so she can apologize.”
Renner blinked. “No. I mean, I told Thanatos he had to get her to do it, but I never thought she would.”
“So, you are out as your nearly omega self?”
“Uh. Yup.”
Altar’s face got serious. “How is your shoulder? I can’t believe you went out to lure him into action.”
“He wasn’t going to leave without shooting someone. He thought he killed her, so things will be quiet for her now.”
Altar blinked. “You put yourself in the path of a bullet.”
“Well, the gun was the creepy part and holding the illusion of Rhymbia in a wedding dress.”
“Damn. We knew something was up when you showed up in that pale, subdued dress.”
“It was easier to cast the illusion over a dress of similar fabric.” Renner sighed. “She’s good. I am good. I even got my wound healed. So, everything is fine.”
“Check your phone. Rhymbia has made an appointment for you. And, as Rhymbia is off work this week and you can work remotely, I want you to.”
“Yes, Altar.” Renner nodded and checked the phone. Yup. There it was. An appointment in an hour. “What the hell?”
Altar smiled. “We thought it would be better that you try to get yourself back to full capacity as soon as possible.”
“I am at full capacity now.”
“Not Albert. Persephone. She needs a life of her own that doesn’t revolve around cats.”
Renner sighed. “I like the cats.”
“I know, but there is more to life. Laughing, loving, even fighting and making up. There are things that will satisfy part of your soul.”
“Is there anything left?”
“Yes. You have a mighty soul and a bigger personality. Show it to those who want to love you, and see how they react.”
“Right. I have to get going if I am going to make that appointment. Text me if you need anything.”
