"I'm not sick, ma'am, just a bit achy. I must not have slept well last night" Dukes wasn't lying, but it might have been pretty easy to know he wasn't telling the whole truth. The reality was that Dukes hadn't slept in two days, the full moon was like being on a caffeine drip for him, he became anxious and borderline jittery and sleep just didn't happen. The pain was building up in his chest and beginning to spread through his extremities. Dukes nodded to her, and it was lucky for him that she turned around when she did, a flash of immense pain crossed his face just as his was out of her sight. He followed, his heart beginning to thunder in his chest and his joints beginning to creak. Knowing he still had a few hours until he would actually change made Dukes not worried about hurting Teegan while he waited for the bus, but those were going to be a few painful hours.<br/><br/>Trying to stay composed, he followed her up the stairs, careful not to look at her ass. It's not that he wasn't sure Teegan had a great ass, he just didn't want to be disrespectful to her. Climbing the stairs to the office hurt quiet a bit, his joints not wanting to comply and an audible argument could he heard from his bones, creaking and groaning against Duke's muscles that were beginning to tear. Dukes grimaced in pain again, and sadly Teegan probably saw him this time as she turned around to make sure he was following her.<br/><br/>"Fuck" He thought to himself "How are you gonna explain this one, smart guy? Kiss this job good bye, she's gonna figure it out, you moron"
