VIXEN/ROSE POVIt's 5am and yet I haven't had a wink of sleep.My mind has been puzzling me, especially since uncle insisted on me tendering an apology to Roman.I was going to beg him for the job back but he beat me to the punch for some reason.I keep wondering what might be going on in that man's mind, but unfortunately that might never happen.'Could it be that he is already making plans to defile me like uncle said'_ I wonder as a cold chill runs down my spine.' No..... He couldn't. He might be rude, arrogantly and thoughtless but he's not some crazy maniac who will willing make a bet to do something as dispeakable as this'_ I try convincing myself but fail miserably.As the dawn of a new day draws near the anticipation for my new job brings to hit me and I am forced to turn in an hour early.I arrived at his office at exactly 6:30am thinking that he would be impressed when he would walk in to see me, an hour later but how wrong I was.I enter the elevator leading to the 4 flow
ROMAN POVDay two of messing with Rose I am already ecstatic. Yesterday I frustrated all her efforts.To think I made her redo the paperwork I had already reviewed a week back, then go ahead to tear it right in front of her.In total honesty, she did a great job with the reports. I almost couldn't believe my eyes.I was practically speechless.I am not one to easily get impressed, specially when it concerns a woman, but for the first time in forever I felt quite defeated.It's like she was doing her best to challenge me, in her pointless persuit to provoke me.The first person I see is her on the hallway to my office. As always, her brown hair was combed back and allowed to fall freely. He make up, mild as can be.It almost looked like she only drew her eyes brows and applied nude lipstick.Today she is putting on a beautiful blue flowerish dress with long sleeves which suited her figure perfectly.Today, instead of putting heels like yesterday, she takes the safer option and put on l
VIXEN/ ROSE POVBurning curiosity, the type of curiosity that doesn't give one the opportunity to breathe.Earlier today, uncle has arrived at the office with his son, Kane. The one who is known to be the prodigal son.It appears they wanted to have a have a heart to heart conversation with Roman, that's why uncle Williams insisted I get coffee down the street, instead of the office cafe.Of course I did as ordered, no questions asked but unfortunately I just had to return a moment too soon.I heard Roman's angry voice echoing through the hallway. He appeared to be mad, which was pretty much expected consider the romuors I have heard about Kane being the reason why Roman and his ex wife separated.In all honesty, he reacted a lot calmly than I had anticipated.I kind of predicted that they would have a braul in which Kane would kick his ass for me.Well that's out of the question.And I was so looking forward to pretending to be sympathetic about his bruises." Such a waste of hope" I
VIXEN/ROSE POV" Oh my gosh! You look like a red potato" Brenda burst into laughter over our video call, after I inform her of Roman's assault on me " There is nothing funny about my present predicament" I inform in anger" You're right. But at least now you don't have to buy blush" She teases annoying me the more." I am so going to hang up on you" I inform in anger, making her laugh harder." I am sorry.

ROMAN POV" God!!!"" That woman dealt with you, man" Landon says in a fit of laughter, the moment we recap the board meeting from earlier " You had no idea how humiliated I felt. I couldn't even open my mouth from shame" I confess in shame, taking a sip from my glass of whiskey."I can imagine. I couldn't almost suppress my laughter anymore. Who knew she was so intelligent" He says with great amazement." I know right. She doesn't look the part but that woman is one hell of a brain box" I confess, still pluzzed by how she found flaws in my perfect proposal.Beautiful and intelligent!!!Two commendable characteristics in the same woman.Only problem is, she chose me of all people to compete with and all my enemies always lose.I would make her regret her intelligence that she would wish she sticked to being pretty, after all women were created to be of service to men, not to think." But not to worry, let's see how far that brain of hers will carry her with that project" I say with h
VIXEN POVThe feeling of emptiness. The unfillable void of disappointment.

Darrick is the alpha prince of our pack, the Maxim pack, my mate and the father of my three children.We have been through all sorts of huddles this past years, only for him to stab me in the back.
