    7 Healing


    Maverick POV


    The door opens and Ruby steps in front of me. I smile because it feels like she is protecting me from


    these three women, which I’m sure isn’t necessary. “Maverick, this is my sister Jade and my two best


    friends, Brooklyn and Autumn. Autumn is the healer we spoke about.” I reach out my hand, shaking


    each of theirs. “It’s very nice to meet all of you. Autumn, I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you


    doing this for my mother. I’m a firm believer that positive thoughts and believing that something can


    work can make all the difference in the world. My mom is the most important person in my life and I


    would do anything to make her well.” My mind drifts to all the pain my father caused her but I shake


    those thoughts away and focus on the here and now. “How is your father doing with your mom being


    sick”, Jade asks. “Jade” Ruby snaps at her. I ce my hand on Ruby’s forearm. “It’s alright, he’s not


    involved in our lives after the choices he has made”, I say to Jade. I don’t borate on what those


    choices were. “Thank you again, Autumn, for offering to do this.” “It is truly my pleasure to help in any


    way I can”, Autumn says. “I should head back to my office and type up a report about our meeting for


    the files.” “Maverick, we can leave around lunch time to head to the hospital if that works for you”, Ruby


    says. “That would be fine”, I say before I head back to my office.


    So much has happened this morning between dealing with Delh and that a**hole. I’m honestly


    exhausted, but I have things I need to get done before we make the trip to the hospital. I take a seat


    behind my desk. I try to focus on the files but my mind wanders to what happened in Ruby’s office. I


    look down at the hand that touched Ruby’s forearm. The feeling of her skin against my fingertips gave


    me a feeling of warmth throughout my body. I have never felt anything like it before. What the hell is


    going on with me? She is my boss and now is not the time to be worrying about how her skin makes


    me feel. I open the file and start to work on my report. I have known Stephen long enough to know that


    he probably would have punched that ba**ard in the face for the way he spoke to Ruby, so I know he


    will understand why we didn’t make the deal. Normally, I would be the one to let him know but I’m sure


    Ruby will be doing that now. Despite saying he’s retired, he still wants to know what’s going on with the


    company which Ipletely respect. I finish the report so I can give it to Ruby before we leave for the


    hospital. As I walk out of my office, Jennifer rushes toward me.


    What the hell is wrong with this woman that she won’t give up? “Mr. Colwell, can I have a moment of


    your time?” “What can I do for you Jennifer?” “Based on the fact that you won’t speak to Delh, I


    assume that you’re no longer engaged. I was hoping that we could go out for dinner” she says with a


    wink. “Jennifer, this is apletely inappropriate conversation. I have made it perfectly clear that I am


    not interested in you. That won’t change even if I’m not with Delh. I am your boss and the next time


    you invade my personal space or proposition me in any way, we will have a conversation with Human


    Resources. Do you understand me?” She steps back with a hurt look on her face. If I hadn’t been clear


    that I wasn’t interested I would feel bad right now, but I don’t. “Yes sir.” She turns and I’m hopeful this


    time she will listen to what I just said. Once she walks down the hall and out of my sight, I turn back


    toward Ruby’s office. That’s when I realize Ruby is standing in the hallway outside her door. How much


    of that did she just hear? I walk toward her and hand her the papers. She takes the report but says


    nothing for a long time. I stare into her beautiful green eyes for a moment before I finally speak. “I’m


    ready whenever youdies are to go to the hospital.” I’m grateful when she turns back and opens her


    office door. She walks in and grabs her purse. The others stand and look in Ruby’s direction. “We will


    meet you at the hospital, Maverick.” I nod and head out to my car.


    Ruby POV


    I want to kill Jade when she asks about Maverick’s father. I know as an empath she has a hard time not


    asking about things when someone seems hurt or upset. When he ces his hand on my forearm, the


    tingles that erupt travel right to my core. Oh my goddess, I have never felt anything like that in my life.


    Gemma growls and I block her. I can’t growl in front of this man. How the hell would I exin that?


    When he leaves my office, I turn to Jade. “Why would you ask him about his father?” “I’m sorry, I could


    just tell that there was something wrong and I couldn’t help myself. I know he doesn’t know it yet, but


    he is important to me.” I smile and pull her into a hug. “I know you didn’t mean any harm and I


    appreciate you worrying about my mate. I have a feeling I know what he meant by choices.” After a half


    an hour, I open my door with the intention of letting him know we are ready. When I see Jennifer


    approach him in the hallway, I can feel Gemma pushing to the surface. “I don’t want her anywhere near


    our mate,” she says. “I don’t either, but we need to let him handle this. He doesn’t need our protection


    from this woman. He has proved he is a very capable man.” When I hear her say that he isn’t speaking


    to Delh, I won’t lie, I feel hope.


    I feel both pride and anger listening to him tell her exactly what he thinks of her advances. I will never


    understand women that throw themselves at men that are clearly not interested. She reminds me so


    much of Tanya. If I see her even bat her eyes in his direction again after what he just told her, I will fire


    her a** on the spot. When our eyes meet, it’s so hard not to tell him what he is to me. I force myself to


    turn away from him. I walk into the office to grab my purse and take a minute to calm myself and


    Gemma down. Once he leaves, Autumnes to stand in front of me. “What the hell just happened?”


    “The secretary was hitting on him and he put her in her ce.” “That’s good that he shows no interest


    in her isn’t it” Brooklyn says. “That doesn’t stop Gemma and I from wanting to beat her a**.” They all


    burst out intoughter and I feel some of the anger fade away. I don’t mention anything about what was


    said about Delh.


    We reach the hospital thirty minutester. Brooklyn and Jade stay in the waiting room while Maverick


    leads Autumn and I to his mother’s room. When we walk in, his mother is resting with her eyes closed.


    She looks so peaceful and when I look at Maverick all I can see is love as he looks at her. “Mom, we’re


    here”, he says softly, and her eyes fly open. She smiles “the medicine really does knock the hell out of


    me.” I hate that she is sick and I’m hopeful that Autumn will be able to help her. “Autumn, this is my


    mother Gwen. Mom, you met Ruby before and this is Autumn the healer.” She shakes Autumn’s hand


    first. When I take her hand, she pulls me in for a hug. I chuckle and hug her back. When I pull back she


    smiles “you both are very beautiful youngdies.” “Thank you, Gwen,” we both say. “Are you ready to


    let me try to offer you some of my healing Gwen,” Autumn asks. “If it could help me stop taking this


    chemo I’m more than ready.” We both smile and I turn to Maverick. “For this to be done properly you’re


    going to need to wait outside Maverick.” He looks at me confused but thankfully he heads for the door


    without questioning me.


    Autumn POV


    Once Maverick leaves the room, I turn back to Gwen. “I know that what I do is hard to believe in, but I


    need you to do your best. I need you to keep your eyes closed until I ampletely done. No matter


    what you feel, do not open your eyes until I tell you to.” She nods and closes her eyes. I ce the head


    of her bed down so she is t. I start to pass my hands over her and begin to chant, working from her


    head down to her feet. I squeeze in behind her bed and ce my hands on either side of her head. I


    begin to chant and my hands begin to glow purple like they did the day I helped my mother heal


    Stephen. I close my eyes and I can see the spots that have been caused by the disease in her body.


    As my magic flows to each spot, they get smaller and smaller until they disappear. Thergest spot


    takes the longest, but I’m able to make it disappear just the same. I open my eyes and start to chant,


    moving my hands above her body again.


    Once I’m done, I use the bed remote to put her head back up. “Gwen, you can open your eyes now.”


    She does what I say and I see a single tear run down her cheek. “Are you alright?” “I have never felt


    anything like that before. Do you think that it worked” she asks with hope in her voice. I can’t just tell


    her that it did, even though I want to. “Faith and believing are part of the healing process, Gwen. I


    believe that you are healed but you need to believe too.” She takes my hand in hers. “I believe and I


    can’t thank you enough.” She looks toward Ruby. “Thank you Ruby, for bringing Autumn to help me. All


    I want is to have more time with Maverick and be there when he has his own family.” “You are very


    wee Gwen. I’ll go get Maverick”, Ruby says. “Wait, can I ask you something before you get


    Maverick?” Ruby nods and Ie to stand next to her. “Was Maverick upset today when he was at the


    office?” We both wait for her to continue. “It seems that his engagement is over. I hate to see him


    upset.” “No he seemed fine, Gwen”, Ruby says, offering her reassurance. I’m so happy to hear her say


    that Maverick is no longer engaged. I knew the goddess would never give Ruby a mate she couldn’t


    have. “Ruby, do you like my son?” Ruby has a shocked look on her face and I can’t help but chuckle. A


    knock sounding on the door saves her from the question. A nurse pops her head in and I’m thankful


    that we were done with the healing. Ruby heads to get Maverick and I’m sure she is grateful the nurse


    came in when she did.


    Delh POV


    The secretary shows me to the office. Once I’m inside he stands. “Did she say she would speak with


    him? He will listen to anything that woman says.” “Maverick interrupted me while I was pleading with


    her to help me. I don’t think she will be any help to us.” “You couldn’t just follow the n. You had to go


    out being the sl*t you are.” “You didn’t mind me being a sl*t when I was on my knees for you.” “Don’t


    tter yourself Delh, anyone can give a bl*w j*b. I’ve had much better. All I needed you to do was


    marry him so I could get a piece of thatpany when he takes over.” “I already told you that he isn’t


    in charge anymore. That b**ch Ruby is in charge because she is Stephen’s granddaughter.” Heughs


    “do you think what happened today with Mr. Bernard won’t keep happening. I’m sure her little delicate


    heart won’t be able to hang with the men of the corporate world. You want to be married to a COO and


    I want a way into thatpany. So you better start doing whatever it takes to get his forgiveness.” “You


    better hope he doesn’t find out what you have done. He won’t think twice about destroying you.” He


    grabs my arm and starts to squeeze. “I would be very careful, Delh. I’m not as soft as Maverick.” “Let


    me go, you’re hurting me.” He releases me. “Get the hell out of my office and call me when you have


    him back in your bed.”N?velDrama.Org content.
