My heart raced as I processed Negan's question and its complexities.
Do I love Phoebe?
It was a straightforward question and needed a straightforward answer but I didn't have one.
Luckily, it seemed Negan noticed my hesitation and faked a cough, breaking the awkward air that had come from his question.
"I'm sure you'll figure something out, Kaene. You always do." He gave me a light fist bump on my shoulder, a smirk curling up his lips.
I gazed at him, my eyes narrowed at first until a slight smirk curled the corners of my lips.
Things between Negan and I would never be the same again but at least we were talking again.
"Alright, I guess I should leave you be." He suddenly clapped his hands, heading toward the door. "It seems you have a lot to plan on your own but I'm sure you'll do great. Good luck, Alpha Kaene."
I gave him a curt nod, watching as he opened the door and walked out of the office.
