Alpha Draven's Regret; Chasing My Secretary CHAPTER 016
AvelinePutting everything that had happened behind me, I was already preparing to leave, closing off everything that I had started. I don't want to leave here with unfinished jobs that would make it easier to get called back. There was barely anything left, and in two days, I should have been ready and free to leave. That was exactly what I had thought, but it seemed that fate had other plans for me.At that moment, that was when Draven’s company rivals decided to strike. I buried my head in my hand immediately after the rumors started to get rampant, spreading around slowly at first, but the topic of discussion and middle of that rumor was none other than the Alpha, so it didn't take long for it to spread like wildfire. People were interested in this kind of discussion and rumor. It was another source of income for the media, and they seized that opportunity. It wasn't something that they would let slip right out of their palm so easily. The rumor spreading around was something

Aveline’s POV A day slowly passed after the conference that Draven had, a conference where I couldn't do anything but watch what he had to say, which is to claim the whole glory of my hard work all for himself and spared a portion of that, not for me, but for his sister, who barely lifted her fingers while the company was in turmoil and did what I couldn't do, which is sleep peacefully through it, barely looking bothered. I don't even want to remember the conversation that we had in his office where he spoke to me like every error in this company has always been my fault, no matter who did it, where it was done, or whatever. If there is just one benefit I gain from all the work that I have been silently putting in to save this company, it is the way almost every single worker now looks at me.While working on something, another thing out of the many that I needed to complete and close, so that I can peacefully make my way out of the company without any negative emotion making its w

AvelineI have accepted a lot from the Harrington family lately, but today was a bad one, like every other day, or maybe even worse than the others.When I secured the previous deal, I thought Draven failed to recognize my support and the role I played in doing it all because Emily had her way of putting herself in the limelight, but this time, it was clear that no matter how hard I tried, I would never get the recognition I deserve. First, Emily took the glory upon herself and now it's Sophie. I guess it's high time I stop putting in any effort. My deal with the family would soon be over anyway, so I guess there's no use in putting in any more effort. After all, I'd already paid all my debt to them; there was nothing left for me to do, so I just had to act like every other person. "Good day ma'am," a man with a brown moustache greeted me immediately I walked out of the building. "Yeah," I held the file across my chest tightly. "A good day it is."We were some distance away, he wa

AvelineWhy would he need my help with such? There are other people who he could have called to get the job done; the maids that he employed, for example, can get it done. What Grace was thinking seemed to be quite different from what I was thinking at that moment, given what she told me. She placed her hands on my shoulder. “You see, the reason why Draven might have called you to get this errand done for him might be because he sees you as the only person who can get the work done for him.” I know Grace is trying to make me see the good sides of everything; the only thing I know that she should know is that there aren’t any good sides any longer. I just hope she can see what I am talking about and see the logical side of things from now on. “I don’t think so any longer; there are other people that could have gotten this work done for him, and there is no good side to this errand he is sending her on. No matter how hard I think about it, I just can’t see it,” Roy said. Finally! He

Draven Draven was surprised by the way Aveline responded to him and threw questions at him. Lines appeared on his forehead as Aveline kept throwing questions at him in an angry tone. From her expression and the look in her eyes, you could tell she had gone through enough already, and she just couldn't take it anymore. It was evident in her face…in her eyes."You do not even hesitate to do something that would hurt me, and I keep asking myself what my offense was, but I can't even find one." She raised her index finger. "One!" "You are talking outside the box and it's not in a positive way," he fires back at her. "It's in a stupid and negative way.""I'm not mad because you chose someone over me but you don't have to treat me the way you do!" She pointed towards Emily. "You can do whatever you want with her, but why do you seem to treat me this bad, why?!" Draven squinted his eyes and took a step forward. His gaze was plastered on Aveline, but she did not seem to be fazed by the

AvelineThat's dumb and very stupid of me to think that Draven might harbor even a tiny seed of feeling that has a chance of blossoming. "What more does he have to do to me for my dumb self to finally realize that there is no single atom of feeling for me inside that rock-hard heart of his?" I asked myself immediately. We entered the room where Grace wanted to restyle me."The party isn't over yet; maybe Draven is just acting out of stress and not in his right senses like he should be," Grace said just like other times, coming to his defense. "Nah, I can't take it any longer; I am too exhausted for this. Trust me when I say that I have been drained," I said to her, shaking my head slightly. My voice was filled with conviction, and slightly, you could sense tiredness in it. For the first time, I feel like Grace finally understands me; she inhaled deeply and let out a slow exhale. "I know and I understand," she said, going on with her restyling. Putting effort into making me look as

AvelineStill staying in the bathroom with a shattered heart, shattered more into dust already, and a tear-covered face. I pulled out my phone and entered into my contact app, strolling through it. I was searching for a number—not just anyone's number, but my best friend's, Sabrina's, to be exact. I scrolled up and down endlessly searching for the number but failing to find it. I don't know why it was proving hard to do. Why can't I just find one goddamned number?! I was frustrated and pissed, I won't lie. After what was obviously a minute but had felt like an eternity, it was like my brain hadn't been working properly the past minute after hearing what Sophie had said, and it just clicked right now. I tapped on the search space in the contacts app, then inputted what I had saved Sabrina's contact with; before I even tapped the search button, her contact had already pulled up, and I just tapped on it and dialed her contact.She picked after the second ring, "What's up, Ave?" She

Aveline.Emily fell to the floor with a loud gasp and I saw blood flow from her right shoulder. Was this how she was determined to take complete charge of Draven's heart?It's not like she does not have complete control already, but…this is beyond my expectations, and I can't help but wonder.Why did she run in the first place?! What was she trying to do?!"What happened just now?!" A woman with blonde hair screamed beside me and I shot her a deadly glance. She bent her head low. "A bullet was sent into someone's body," I spoke in a low tone and she nodded. "I'm sorry for shouting that way," she apologized and I just nodded. My gaze went to Emily again. I warned her, but she turned a blind eye; she was plotting something against me, I know that, but I never knew she could lay down her life all in the name of shredding me and Draven apart. What if she did it knowing she would survive? What if?Different questions flooded my head, and I just gasped and swallowed hard; my knee

Aveline I started getting worried. Not because of Betty this time around, or Sabrina or even my company, _although those always got me worried daily_This time around, I was worried because of the She-wolf who had been helping me through my recovery. I had not seen her in a while now and it was not normal for someone who always came around every morning to check in on me and keep me company, she hadn't come in for three days. I had every right to be worried. Considering what I went through in the hands of Kade.'What if he locked her up in the cell because she did something offensive?' I thought to myself with a deep sigh. She was a slave after all, and slacks are not cut for slaves in the clan. 'What if they killed her?!' My heart beat accelerated at this thought and I placed a palm on my chest to calm myself. I had to think about the positives that could happen but there were barely any positives that could happen in this shit hole of a clan where the Lycans kill for the fun o

Draven’s office was occupied by three people, with Draven seated behind his desk on his usual office chair, while the other two occupants, Brian, his beta, and Scar, Aveline’s right-hand man, sat on the two chairs opposite where Draven was seated. “Let's not even beat around the bush, and let me get straight to the point. I called both of you here to fill you in on my plan to attack the Lycans and set Aveline free from their grasp.” His gaze moved from Brian to Scar while he spoke, paying rapt attention to the expression plastered on their faces. Just like he had expected, the only person that reacted to this news was his beta, Brian. “You know this is not something that we are supposed to rush into,” Brian said and leaned forward, placing his arm on the table, like Draven wouldn't be able to hear him due to the little distance between them. He continued before Draven could interrupt him, “These people are far stronger than we are; they are well versed in battle individually. It w

DravenThe day was a busy one for him, it was either that or he had been so buried in Aveline's absence that he snubbed work for weeks. And it was telling on him from the pole of files on his table and the trouping in and out of his secretary into his office with more complaints and questions. Must have lost track of time with the so much work he had to handle and he only realized that when he picked up a call from a client who wanted a detailed statement of his transaction with Draven's company. Draven ran out of his office when he saw the time. He had forgotten to pick Betty from school.He drove over to her school like a man whose wife was in the hospital.When he got there he was told that Betty already left and Kade picked her up.Kade was no stranger to the school. He always picked his niece from school before he decided to show his true colors and Betty always tagged along so the teachers didn't read any meaning into his meeting with the girls."You could have called me and i

KadeAfter his conversion with Julian, Kade decided it was better to act on his _with the last card he had to pull; getting Aveline's daughter, Betty._He had not shown his face since he got to Julian's clan and had his friend handle his business while he was away but everything was not going as planned so he had to take desperate measures."Hey, sis!" Kade greeted over the phone as he got in his car."Am I talking to a ghost? You have been gone for so long that I began to think that my dear cousin is now a ghost!" The woman exclaimed from the other end of the call."I had to handle some serious business and it took more time than anticipated," Kade replied with a calm voice."You got me worried. And your niece had been asking after you all week!" She replied. "I'm sorry I got you worried. You know what? I'm coming into town today, can I stop by the house for a good lunch? You know I've missed your nice dishes." Kade asked and just like he expected, the woman had no issue with hostin

AvelineI have not set my eyes on Kade since the last time he came to my room. It was hard finding out what happened between Kade and Julian because I was still healing and had been falling in and out of sleep.The she-wolf who has been helping me had suddenly been distant. She doesn't spend as much time with me anymore, claiming that I need my rest. So I had only the books she gave me for consolation. However, on this faithful morning, I woke up and I didn't feel sleepy after some seconds of being awake so I got down from the bed.My wounds were almost healed since I'd been resting well and taking my meds. I still felt weak but it wasn't as much as the first week and the pains had reduced to a faint feel.I staggered to the door and was surprised that it wasn't locked from the other side.Perhaps, this has anything to do with what the guards said about King Julian's order to let me be.Two guards were manning my door and they shifted their gaze to me when I walked out but they did n

Sabrina The days moved by so fast and the closer the date of her meeting with Julian drew near, the more anxious she became.How could she be in a meeting with a man who provoked her every being? The fact that Aveline was being held hostage in his clan was not doing anything to reduce the anger she felt towards the man."Hello, Aunty." Betty's light voice cut through the angry woman's thoughts and she stared towards the door."Hey, sweetheart. How long have you been there?" Betty was glued to the side of the half-opened door, staring at her mother's friend with so much adoration. It would be no surprise if Betty said she was looking up to Sabrina as a role model. The woman was fierce and still so sweet. She had a large heart but never hesitated to call out anyone who was in the wrong."Not long. I just came by when I heard you were going out soon." Betty replied with a shrug.Sabrina smiled as she gestured to the girl with open arms."Come here, child." Betty ran into her embrace.

JulianJulian found himself looking forward to seeing Sabrina again and it got him excited as he reminisced about the last time he got on her nerves. They were supposed to have a meeting concerning their collaboration."Kade is asking to see you, my king." One of the guards announced with a bow by the door just as Julian was about to leave the room."He's here for what?" Julian asked as nonchalant as he could be."He said he had been trying to speak to you since the evening of your return from your first meeting at Aveline's office. He's been going mad about it and threatening to break in if we do not let him in." The guard replied. Making Julian stifle a laugh."Typical of him. Let's hear what he wants to say." Julian stepped out, to meet Kade pacing like a hungry lion waiting for its food to be served."You want to see me?" He asked Kade who wore a frown."You didn't let me in your chambers? Why is that?" Kade asked, fuming.He was pissed enough that he was no longer regarded as t

KadeKade walked past the lady by the door of Aveline's room and stopped before Aveline who wore a blank expression. It was as though she was not scared of him but at the same time, he could feel something, it was not fear, no. It was disgust."What are you doing here?" Aveline asked him, cutting through his thoughts. The look on her face confirmed his guess. She was disgusted by the sight of him."Surely, you do not think that because I let you out of the torture house, I'm not going to get rid of you," Kade answered with a smirk.If she looked at him with such disgust when they weren't in the clan and he hadn't shown her his real colors yet then he might have been a little bit disturbed by it but now, he had gone too far to let a little frown from her hold her back.The humiliation he had received from Julian was enough reminder that he needed to awaken the banished vampire army before everything he had worked for would go to ruin. "Just take this as a uh... break. You will raise

Julian He returned from the meeting with a smirk that seemed to stick to his face. He caught himself smiling whenever he remembered the events of the day, which was him, provoking the human lady who looked like she wanted to claw his face."Boss, Kade's here." One of his guards announced with a bow. Making him catch himself smiling again.'Fuck!' "Let him in." Replied, resuming his usual unfazed expression. Kade walked in seconds after his guards left and Julian could smell the anger brewing within Kade. "Hello, my friend!" He greeted Kade like he usually would.Even though he always knew that Kade had other intentions."I am here for the update on the meeting," Kade announced, ignoring his greeting. Kade's anger was palpable. He never wanted Julian to have his shares but it was too late. Julian was not nicknamed a man of his word for fancy.He always got what he wanted and he knows what he wants."Meeting went well. Did well on my second day. They will be relying on my companie
