VIXEN/ROSE POV" So you mean to tell me that the entire report thing was just a roost by Roman to make your life a living hell, and in your pathetic attempt of payback, you got appointed by the board of directors to create a new proposal for Glamour Designs by tomorrow morning" Brenda questions confused as she tries to put two and two together about the Roman_Rose dispute." Right on the money" I inform massaging my temple from stress" Babe that is rough" She says and I have to agree" You have no idea. If I had known it would to come down to this. I would never have accepted that proposal in the first place" I lament.I honestly regret accepting to seduce him in the face place. I should have known it was a fool's errand.I guess I over estimated myself, or better still underestimated him. I knew he was a bad person with anger issues and pride issues here and there but I sincerely thought I could manage him like that.But how wrong I was. Roman isn't a man to begin with, he is a beas
VIXEN/ROSE POV" Beep..... beep.... beep...." Is the sound that wakes me from my slumber.I wake gingerly with a serious headache and horrible back ache.Last night I did an all nighter to be able to complete the proposal for the clients today." I need more rest" I grumble to myself before taking a look at my clock, only to get the shock of the century.It already 8am and I have to submit my proposal to the clients at 8:30am." Oh my God.... Oh my God.... I am late. Roman is going to kill me" I say in a fit of panic, running to the bathroom for a rushed bath.******************Bathing for me has always been a quite time consuming activity for me, since I have to every spot of my chubby self, but today that wasn't the case.I hurriedly freshing up and put on an easy to wear free grown before rushing to the office.By the time I arrive at office it is already 8:35, meaning I was five minutes late." Roman is going to kill me"_ My subconscious says, sending a cold shiver of fear down m
ROMAN POV" I don't like any of them" Mr Glamour confess and my joy knows no bounce.This is what I have been waiting for, what I longed for.Mr Glamour, also know as Flashy_Classy is a fashion designer who strives on flashy accessories to make his outfits look better.Normally, I should have told her that before handing the project over but if I did that I would have only saved her from the humiliation and that is the last thing I wanted.Her designs might be out of this world but the facts remain, they aren't good enough for the one and only Mr Glamour.I needed someone like him to show her where she belongs, and that's at the bottom with the rest of the other lousy omegas.The look on her face is precious, I can't suppress my happiness, anymore of this and I might burst into laughter." Is there a problem with my proposal, sir?" She questions nonplussed as she tries maintaining eye contact with him but fail miserably." Do you think there's any problem with your presentation?" He a
ROSE POV" Rose, will you be my girlfriend?" He questions with eyes filled with hope.Girlfriend!!!Do I really want to do that now?. After everything I have been through at the hand of love, do I still want to go through all that stress.What if I say no!!!What if he starts hating me?.What would I do if the only person who actually cares about me." Rose, what do you say about my proposal?" He questions impatient after a few minutes of waiting.' What to say? yes?'How can I bring myself to get intangled with a man I feel not for.Can I date a man I bearly know.I can't, I am not ready." Kane, the truth is I don't....." I start speaking but Roman's voice cuts in" Rose, come with me" He commands pulling me by the hand." Roman stop. What are doing?" I ask confused while trying to resist his pull. " Shut up and just follow" He commands in anger, pulling me out there by creating a scene.He looks mad, in fact he is fuming. His hair is a mess and his eyes are burning with unfountai
KANE POVI walk into my dark apartment with a cute skinny chick drowning in kisses. Immediately the doors are closed we proceed to take off our clothes, as the burning feeling of lust captures us in its embrace.Just when we are about to get down on the couch, I see a black manly figure leaking in the shadows, and immediately pull away.I hurriedly turn on the lights only to see Dad standing there silently." Dad, what is the meaning of this?" I ask with great displeasure as I hurriedly put on my pants, and the cheek with me scrambles for her clothes as well." Why did you stop. Continue" He commands, making himself comfortable on the couch" Babe, who is he?" She questions, hiding behind me in shame." My dad" I inform simply " Gosh!!! I am so sorry sir" She says dressing herself." Pa what are you doing here?" I question in anger" I want a chat" He informs simply.So typical of him to impose his will on me." Not now pa. I am busy" I inform rolling my eyes" That was not a request
ROMAN POVI am an idiot.Two bottles of wine, was that too much for me to handle.Now that I think of it, I doubt if I am still worthy to call myself a man.I still can't believe it took a slap to knock me back to my senses.What was all that nonsense about not wanting to share her with Kane.Could it be that I actually have feelings for her that I am yet to comprehend.Could I be in love with her but don't want to admit it?.No, that can't be the case.It's the mating bond that is messing with me.It couldn't be love, she is a barren Omega.I can't have that, I want kids and I want a woman that my people will be proud to call luna. " Take it easy the wine man. You might earn another slap if you continue like that" Landon teases with a laugh.Why exactly do I still keep this idiot around as a friend when he is so utterly useless.Why exactly did I tell him about Rose's slap in the first place." Remind me never to tell you anything important that happens in my life again" I voice wit
ROSE POVToday really isn't my day.I had a bad night last night and today which happens to be my day off I am stuck having to deal with the likes of my annoying psychologist who seems a little too obsessed with weigh loss.I am scared, Roman has been extremely nice to me for some reason. Today he even thanked me for coffee.Me, Rose, an Omega for coffee.It's so serial.I seriously thought I was going to loss my job and would have been right to do that, cause it was all my fault, I had no right to slap him in the first place.It's a dilemma, I am constantly looking over my shoulder from fear.To make matters worse, Kane wouldn't speak to me, he is practically ignoring my call, and wouldn't even acknowledge my presence a little. Guess he must still be angry about how last night end.To think I didn't even bother to call him last night.Talk of bad luck.I am so not getting fed up of all this stress surely there must be another way." Rose, I asked a question" My psychologist, Mr Roger
ROSE POVThis day has been horrible from on trouble to another. At this point I am tired of everything.My head is a mess. I need some air, but unfortunately, I can't have that right now, because I have some work to do." Are you alright Rose?" Mark (a fellow comperigime) questions an hour into our sealing of the already prepared drugs. " I'm fine" I lie.Honestly, I am not fine. I have been thinking about my life recently and honestly it's weighing me down." I know you. You are always lively and happy. What's wrong?" He questions and I immediately burst into tears.Normally, I like to keep my feelings buckled up on the inside but there's just this concerned look on his face that crumbles all my walls." I'm not good enough" I confess, bursting in tears. My chest feels like exploding any minute now from frustration." Let's take a break" He suggests pulling me by the hand to a nearby room, for a private conversation "Take a sit" " Let it all out" He commands patting my back, as he

I whisper, tears welling up inside,Darrick's voice barely audible, "I lost her," he can't hide."Rose, forever," his eyes well up, tears fall like the rain,"I'm sorry," I offer, useless words, but all I can obtain.Darrick shakes his head, resigned, "It's my fault," he confesses true,Self-blame in his voice, a sorrow that we both pursue.I take his hand, comfort offered, "We both made mistakes," I say,Shared guilt and regret, our hearts heavy, lost along the way.Darrick's gaze drifts to Roman and Rose, happy and free,While we're trapped in regret, a pain that's all we see."Let's leave," I suggest, escape this heartache and sorrow,Darrick nods in agreement, we turn and walk away tomorrow.Away from what could've
