Damon's POV

“We have two hours before going downtown to meet with someone else.” I said.

Emily had been acting weird, and I knew why.

“Okay.” She replied.

I stood behind her, but close to her. We were going to the twentieth floor of The Damon Empire. The elevator ride would take about three to five minutes.

“Do you have questions?” I asked.

“Not really.” Emily replied. “Am I taking this job from someone else?”

“She's interim.” I answered her, clearing my throat. It was the truth.

“I don't know if I like the sound of that.” Emily replied.

I chuckled. For someone as stubborn and strong-headed as she proved to be she also had a really soft heart. I just knew life with her was going to be very interesting.

“You're mine, Emily. That's no one's job but yours.” Finally we arrived on the floor that housed my office.

I had two prospective buyers coming in.

We were thinking of expanding our exporting territories and so, we invited them to see if we can start sending oi

    Emily's POV “What does that mean?” I asked Damon, alarmed. I couldn't have heard right. It's not possible. I know I was still yet to like him, it didn't mean I'd be prepared for the bombshell he just landed on me. “What do you mean? Is that even possible? How? Why? When did you decide that? You had to lie to me saying we were meeting some other Alpha? Are you serious?!” I could no longer take control of my own tongue. Just a minute ago, I was content with being fascinated by the wonderful golden fishes that swam above us, little did I know that the biggest fish was me. I'd taken the bait to be led where Damon could do whatever he liked with me. “You haven't even heard what I've got to say.” He said, begging me to sit still. For some reason, we didn't have company, and I was grateful for it. Cause right after the outburst, came tears. Just when I thought my life was beginning to get out together, Damon decides to leave me. But that's jot how it works in packs, according t

    Emily's POV “So how did you guys meet?” Adrian asked, beaming from side to side. “Never saw her once.” The chic next to him quipped. Maybe she was one of those girls they groom to be Luna. It's understandable that she hadn't seen me in her space. I looked to Damon to save the situation, but he looked away. For a second, I questioned if that was the same person who'd just been begging to know me better. “We met not too long ago.” I started, swallowing hard. I was pressured to start thinking of all the sweet terms to coat being an orphan, shipped to the palace as a maid, and ending up as the Alphas contract wife right after Luna passed. “Oh, I know about that. It's been a while since Damon and I went on our vacations, about six months, and he didn't mention anyone special, talk less of someone he was going to marry.” Adrian said. He was a talker, which would have been good if the lady with hawk eyes wasn't trying to pry my skin off my bones with her eyes. “Oh, that's

    Damon's POV “What is wrong with you?!” I screamed at Emily as soon as the car door closed us from the outside world. “I don't think I know what you mean.” She replied, looking out her window. “I think you do.” I said to her, “And I'd very much prefer if you looked at me while we're having a conversation.” “I did not think this was gonna be a conversation.” Emily said. “I can't believe you.” I said. “How did we get here?” I asked “I'm sorry.” She apologized. I didn't expect it. She picked at her nails, and looked so hard at them while at it. But her calm was suspicious. Then I heard her sniff. “Babe?” I called out to her, passing my hand over her thighs. “I don't mean to be that way.” She added. “I know, I know, babe.” I put her head on my shoulder. “It just seemed like you weren't so proud of me.” Emily said. “Come on!” I rubbed her back, “That's not possible.

    Emily's POV As I entered my room, I wondered why Dathan acted the way he did. I was gonna have to see him, talk to him. In truth, things had begun to get a little webby between us, but it didn't take away the fact that I was indeed Damon's. Nervously, I changed out of my work clothes and rang the kitchen for my food to be served in my room. If I'd thought about it quickly, I'd just have gone to sit with Damon at the dining, cause dining alone in my room was going to raise eyebrows. “Where are you off to?” Damon's voice broke into my thoughts. I snapped out of my reverie and looked back into the mirror I'd been staring at for minutes, before I blanked out. I could see Damon through it, one hand on the door handle, and the other akimbo. “You look dressed for something else.” He added. “I just thought I could, you know..” I stalled a bit, considering the pros and cons of telling him the truth, “I thought I could check on Dathan.” “But you've had a busy day.” He smiled and ban

    Emily's POV “Come on.” Dathan says weakly. “Why are you even mad?”. “I need my scarf as soon as she helps you up.” I said through my teeth, as quietly as possible. I looked at Zyna and forced a smile while at it. It's not that I was sad to see her, or angry or anything, I just would have appreciated it if Dathan had run it by me. “I never saw anyone so pissed because their friend showed up.” He chuckled. I gave him a very nasty look. So bold of him to crack jokes when I'd just risked my reputation to save him. “You know that's not why I'm angry.” I replied, picking my phone up in the most insuspicious way possible. “Well, now you have answers to the questions you were asking me.” He said, holding my hand then leaving it. I locked eyes with him, and tore my gaze away instantly. “Oh! And thank you for being here for me. I'd rather you not mention that I have seen my wolf to anyone in the house.” He said, another confidence I had to swear to. “Bye.” I said curtly,

Looking away, not because her cheeks were terribly red with embarrassment, but also because I wanted to give myself some sense of suspense. “Damon, please just go back and wait for me on the bed.” She chuckled nervously. I heeded this time, for both our sakes. “Was that so hard?” She asked sarcastically as she re-entered If anyone had told me that this was all I needed to do to turn things around with Emily, I'd have done it right after the wedding. For two months, I'd lived in a hell I created for myself.

    Emily’s POV “Rise and shine, beautiful.” I opened my eyes a little, to see Damon's white set of teeth sending the sun rays in my direction. “What morning is it?” I grunted. “Wednesday?” He asked, laughing. “Do I have to go to work?” I asked, stretching my luck. For the past two weeks, I'd been my husband's personal assistant. Largely, it's been about arranging his affairs, organising his schedule, picking up after him. I didn't think it would be something I'd enjoy, but so far, I have. “Well, the clients can go to hell then.” Damon said and next to me. I knew he was being sarcastic. We had people from the UK coming in, and there's no way we could miss the mouth watering deal I saw on the paper just yesterday. “You aren't serious, are you?” I asked, my face half buried in the bed. “As long as you are not.” He said, snuggling close to me. “Ugh. I hate Wednesdays!” I replied. “I think you hate everyday you've gotta get up early and go to work.” He laughed je

    Emily's POV I don't know how I ever thought that icing Damon out and being his PA was gonna work. We arrived at the office and I did everything I let him do for me previously, by myself. I got my own door, let myself out of the car, stayed while the elevator took him up alone, pushed the elevator button by myself, opened his office door and sat right where I was supposed to be. “How many people do I meet today?”He asked me. “I'll check that right now and get back to you as soon as possible.” I said, with my phone in my hand. I scrolled through endless pictures of hot model guys, on purpose, so if he decides to snatch the phone out of my hands, he'd be riled up by what he sees. Contrary to what I thought, he didn't even move an inch from his chair. I finally got bored and set the phone down, making sure it was within sight for him. “Mr Murray by ten am, Mrs O’Connor by midday, and a staff meeting by two pm.” I read out his schedule. “You're also expecting a call from the m

    Emily's POV The day dragged on, after the eventful Mrs O'Connor. I rejected Damon's lunch offer, so he went ahead without me. As I sat alone, in his office, staring at where he used to be, I wondered what was really going on with the both of us. “Let's go home.” He said as he entered. It was still midday, well, some minutes after. The main man, the client who was coming in from the UK hadn't arrived yet, and he was planning to close. “Why?” I asked, surprised “I'm not in the mood for any more work.” He replied. “Well, I've still got a lot to do,” I countered, “Sir.” I added for the much needed effect. “You stop working when I say you should.” He growled at me. Damon was vexed. If I hadn't initially noticed the veins that'd begun to pop a little too much, I noticed the slit appearing in his eye,how his grip on the table had begun to dent it, the smell of his feral breath. “I'll start packing.” I said weakly. Damon made me wish I had my own wolf. I know I always
