"Yeah, Mr. V. She's not lookin' so good when she left. Nuh-uh... She really thought you were gonna fire her!"

Vince groaned inwardly at Raquel's report via a phone call while he was on speakerphone. He didn't expect that his mate would be THAT devastated over their failed meeting.

"I swear, V, if she gets into an accident because she's crying while driving, I'll kill you myself!" screamed a far-off female voice that could be clearly heard in the background.

"Is that Diwa?" mumbled V from his imposing leather executive chair. He has now fully reclined so he can try to recover from his recent failure.

"You bet it is, Alpha! And I meant what I said! What the hell, you had to give her that kind of letter, huh? What were you thinking?"

"Di, just come to the phone and stop yelling! Geez, good thing we're in Roderick's closed office, or else the whole building's gonna hear you rage."

Vince had already stood up and was now putting on his jacket. "Good luck with that, R. She was never good at

    "Ok, so I'm not dreaming…"Siel spoke to her smiling reflection in the mirror.Her two children jumped and ran around excitedly in their casual outdoor clothes. They were now all ready for the "date" and were just waiting for their ride to arrive.Her smile widened as Nella entered her bedroom with a large baby backpack filled with James and Rose's snacks, toys, and extra clothes for this evening's outing. She wasn't even aware of where V planned to take them, but she couldn't help but be thrilled that the man agreed to what she wanted.* * *"If you really want to take me out tonight, I have to insist on bringing my twins along. I hardly spend any time with them, and I haven't been able to earn enough to even bring them to the local amusement park. Besides, I promised myself that if I'll ever start dating again, it has to be with someone who will accept and love my kids.""Done! And I know exactly where we'll go tonight. Make sure you all wear casual outfits. I promise that your babi

  • Her Christmas Wolf   CHRISTMAS TREE

    It had been a while since she woke up like this.Her early morning routine was the same as any other day, but the smile she had on her face, that she could not and would not remove, changed everything. Even if it was the middle of December and it was getting colder now, life was getting warmer and more colorful around her. Even the little babies she hugged in bed noticed and giggled at seeing her wide smile.“Happy mommy,” Rosie said, and Siel couldn’t agree more.Finally deciding to get up before she was late for the first day of her new position, she still wondered at how wonderful she felt. It was as if those memorable moments last night had brought back all the light that her ex had sucked out of her life.She was still dreamily thinking of how everything was now falling into place when she smelled something burning.“Oh no! The toast!”Too late… at least the smoke alarms didn’t go off.The babies giggled along with her as she tossed the blackened pieces of bread into the trash. N

  • Her Christmas Wolf   NOT FOR SALE

    "Good morning, Miss Camden. How are you today?" The handsome, polite young man at the main desk near V's office doors greeted her as if he were sincerely glad to see her. However, her mind was so clouded that she could only respond with a smile and a half-hearted greeting. "Good morning to you too… uh… Myron, correct?""Yes! It's nice of you to remember," he said with a smile.Well, he seems genuinely pleased to see me. Maybe because he's overworked like me, and he needs the extra help. But V doesn't seem to be that kind of boss. Or is he?"Uhm… listen, I need to see Mr. Riegel before I check on my job description. He said I'd need to talk with you about it, but I don't know if you mind me taking a few minutes before we start," she shyly told Myron."Oh, I don't mind, and it won't be a problem. He informed me that you might be a little late so I am quite surprised that you're this early. He also came in really early today, so please just go ahead since he has no appointments yet," he

  • Her Christmas Wolf   FIRST DAY

    Time passed quickly for her after their talk in V’s office.Myron was nice, attentive, and also very well-organized, smart, and prepared for anything for everything his position required. Vince’s Executive Assistant expertly ran so many tasks at the same time and yet he managed to optimize his present office systems which he will now let her use.Siel was practically awestruck by the end of his presentation.Despite this, she now understood why she was taking part of his workload.“Every document template is ready with name and customer, you just need to change dates and input the data, and the formulas will complete the calculations and sums for you. The minutes and emails are a little different, but you can format everything from font type, to size, and paragraph details. If you’re not sure about something, feel free to ask me. I’ll be happy to help you.”She understood what he was explaining and knew the tools but the system he had ready to streamline everything thoroughly amazed h

    The restaurant had a classy and relaxing oriental ambiance. The music wasn’t too loud, and even if it was a busy hour, it was large and expensive enough to guarantee privacy to all their guests.“Ah, Mr. Riegel, welcome! We are so glad to see you again.”“Thank you, Lu. For two, please,” Vince replied to the host, who guided them to a nice, cozy table.“Something to drink, Mr. Riegel?”“A Pinot Noir, perhaps? Or a good Merlot?” V asked, thinking of the perfect pairing for the duck.“We have Pomerol. Would you like that, sir?”“Ah, yes. Bring the bottle, please,” he said with a smile.“A… bottle?” Siel said, worriedly since she had very limited alcohol tolerance.V picked up on her tone and tried to reassure her. “We can order whatever else you favor, but I do hope you prefer wine. It would pair amazingly with the duck.”“Oh, yes, I do like wine, but I’m not used to drinking,” she admitted. “I only need to warn you, I get tipsy easily, and we do have to go back to work.”“Who said we h

    "Ok, that's enough, V, or I swear I'm walking out of here without you.""How can you when I'm still holding your hand?""Oh really? Do you think that's gonna stop me?"Vince opened his palm and interspersed his fingers through hers, then carefully but tightly curled up his hand into a fist. Now her hand was completely covered with his and their fingers were practically merged together."Try me…" his voice so velvety smooth despite the challenging look on his face.Siel now laughed aloud, feeling the kick of the alcohol. She enjoyed the pleasure of being led around by this suave and sexy gentleman who seemed intent to sweep her off her feet.But despite all the charm and attention, there were thoughts behind her head that were still continuously nagging her…Why me, when I have children? Why is he even that interested in my twins? They aren't even his, and he doesn't have his own kids!"See, you can't even pull yourself free…" chuckled Vincent as he reached for a couple more toddler ov

    It is said that once a man who has complete control of his emotions finally erupts and loses it, you better run for your life. And for the record, it was a good thing there were hardly any customers at the club that time since it was a weekday and not even anywhere near payday…“MA’HERON! PUT HIM DOWN! DAMN IT, NOOOO! I SWEAR, I’M NEVER TALKING TO YOU AGAIN IF YOU DON’T LET HIM GO!”“Sir, please… we don’t want the building security to come barging in on us… you need to control yourself, or you might be banned from this establishment!”“I’M THE DAMNED GAMMA OF THE SILVERCREST PACK! HOW CAN I POSSIBLY BE BANNED FROM OUR OWN BUSINESS!”“YOU ARE FRIGGING KILLING THE BETA OF YOUR OWN PACK, BROTHER! YOU JUST WON’T BE BANNED FROM THE SILVERCREST PROPERTIES, YOUR ALPHA WILL KILL YOU TOO!”“P-please… urrrggghhh… put me d-down… M… stop… ch-choking me… let me go… aggghhh…”At the moment, none of the people inside the club had changed to their werewolf forms. Good thing too, since their voices wo

  • Her Christmas Wolf   REVELATIONS

    Vince got to his office even earlier than usual even without sleep, hoping that his mate was ok. Unfortunately, he can't shake the feeling that something awful had indeed happened.I'm pretty sure, V, and if he just as much as yelled at her, I can tell you, I won't rest until he…"I know, Roth, but there was nothing we could do last night. Do you think I didn't want to stay with her? To even kill the guy? My calling the cops, would've made me feel better but I can't force my decisions on her! Not with how she reacted to my suggestion. I just hope…"Suddenly, he heard a soft, shy knock on the door."Yes, come in," he said, trying to look busy, as he was pretty sure he knew who was knocking.Her scent entered the room, announcing her presence before he even saw her. He kept his eyes on the computer, holding back his intense urge of running to her as soon as she opened the door."Uhhh… Good morning, sir."Sir? That's a bad start… Yesterday, it was still V… Dude, I tell you, something's w

    He heard his phone buzzing on the bedside table. Carefully, the Silvercrest Gamma reached out towards his vibrating mobile and checked the screen…Hmmm, should I answer or not, Lyon?Looks like someone is missing you like heck already, bro. Damn, it’s just been a day, M. Aha ha ha!Ma’Heron chuckled, the sound a low rumbling in his broad, firmly sculpted chest, as he answered the call, “Yes?”“Happy Anniversary and Happy Valentine’s Ma’Heron. Now, when do you plan to get your ass back here?”M could no longer hold back his laughter at the sound of his Alpha’s slightly tense voice. “I don’t know, V. It really all depends on someone who’s very important to me.”On cue, he felt the naked woman beside him suddenly hugging his nude body tighter. He couldn’t help but stare at the sparkling diamond and ruby ring on his beautiful mate’s finger. M’s small smile had become wider as the memory connected to that very gift began to replay in his mind…* * *“MA’HERON!”“ALEXIA!”At the back of his

  • Her Christmas Wolf   THE CHALLENGE

    Meanwhile, the Gamma and the visiting Alpha, as if in agreement, both started the challenge in their human forms…They began with the usual hand-to-hand combat, and even then, you could feel the viciousness and fury being exchanged by the two men. Both had obviously been well-trained, and their past experiences and present expertise could be seen in their every move and counter.“So, your mate, huh Ma’He? And her pack? Are you happy with what you took from me?” gritted the Alpha, now sporting a bruised and cut cheek.“I took nothing from you. All of it is mine - and hers - since we were born,” M said tonelessly, evading a kick to his face and landing two solid punches on Abner’s chestGasping from the hits, the Crescent Moon leader managed to find his footing, then jumped up into the air, aiming a kick at M’s head while screaming furiously, “She was going to be married TO ME!”M dodged the kick and yelled back, still in this strange monotone, “To someone who didn’t love her!”Wow, it’

  • Her Christmas Wolf   GEARING UP

    Everything was ready now…From the Silvercrest spot on the battlefield, Ma’Heron saw her walking regally beside Abner, head held high, hands to her side, stride as sensuous as ever. Her long, thick, and tousled dark mane perfectly framed her oval-jawed and serious face, making his mate look like a strong, determined amazon who was surrounded by her several male underlings.The only evidence of her brokenness was her puffy eyes; and the darkened, swollen skin underneath them.He also knew that underneath her black dress suit, the same one she wore the day she disappeared from work, he would be seeing more swelling and darkened patches all over her body. His assessment was all based on Myron’s recent report to him and the aches and pains that she tried so hard to hide from him during their linked conversations.Plus, the fact that she was even blanking out the visuals of their link, and he’s left with just a white “screen” when they talked, as if she was editing out images he didn’t wan

    “Oh, wait, there he is! You guys just go. I’ll follow you to the car in a minute,” V said to the others.“Are you coming, Luna?” Myron asked, smiling while tightening the straps of his laptop’s backpack.“No, I’ll wait for him here. I’ll just see you downstairs,” Siel offered, as she returned he fellow office worker’s returned his warm and friendly smile with a similar version of her own.From afar, the Luna could see, through the glass wall of the room’s balcony, how her mate approached M. Soon after, the clean-shaven Denar was now hugging the bearded Riegel.There’s just so much a person can take, Elena thought as she watched Vince holding his friend’s sobbing form because there was nothing else her mate could do at the moment. It’s amazing how a man that cold, collected, and calculated can be transformed by finding the one woman who’s meant for him. “Mates” is a term that’s definitely something far above the simple love that we humans are used to feeling. His surrender, his loyalty

  • Her Christmas Wolf   THE TORTUROUS WAIT

    The Elders glanced at each other with troubled looks, unable to do anything else at that moment. They all got up from their seats at the same time and prepared to leave. So did Abner, who approached the Silvercrest people with a smile on his face and a hand extended, except for the brooding Gamma whose brawny arms are tightly crossed as he stayed in his seat. However, V took his hand and looked him in the eye as he spoke for everyone in authority in the room, “We’ll see you at the challenge, Abner.”“I can barely wait, Alpha. Damien, Melo, Stephen, and Jenna, it was nice to see you again,” the sardonic visiting Alpha stated as he shook hands with the elders, while obviously ignoring Ma’Heron and dramatically opened the door then exited the room.“Please excuse me a moment,” M mumbled then left the crowd in a rush, trying hard not to show his eagerness at what he was about to do.After stepping out into the meeting room’s balcony, it took him only a few seconds to reach her…Alexia!

  • Her Christmas Wolf   MUTUAL AGREEMENT

    The whole room was waiting for a feminine voice to answer the call that Abner was making right then and there. At first, it was hardly believable that he would risk calling his hostage, but when the line didn’t answer they figured out that he had tricked them once again.Abner indeed used Alexia’s number, but it didn’t matter how many times he called her. He was sure there would be no answer since her phone was locked up in his suite’s secret safe.“You see? Too tired to answer,” the lying Alpha stated with finality, his cynical smile twisting his small audience’s stomachs.The elders knew, even before the start of the meeting that there was something very much off with his request. And despite them knowing, they didn’t have much proof to counter the untruthful Alpha’s allegations.Of course, the Silvercrest Gamma will still insist on his demands, and everyone expected that…“She is my mate and was marked by me. And I have her mark as well. If she can’t tell me that she is where she w

  • Her Christmas Wolf   THE CALL

    It was not old news for the Elders that Abner had continually been finding ways to force his canceled wedding over Alexia’s mate situation. Obviously, his intentions were rather shady in the past, as it was right now. After all, they were present during the dramatically canceled engagement/wedding party of Abner and Alexia three years ago so they were quite aware of this problematic issue.However, what the Elders have personally seen then was true proof that Ma’Heron and Alexia were indeed mates.“Might we ask, why is the Gamma’s mate currently on Crescent Moon premises?” Elder Jenna asked, intently looking at Abner.“Well, it’s very simple. One day, she had just finished her shift here in the same building and was walking to her apartment when we met. She was so pleased to see me that she decided to come with me to my packhouse. Since then, she didn’t want to leave me anymore,” Abner explained as he grinned widely, a perfect copy of the Grinch’s similarly looking grimace.“Is there

  • Her Christmas Wolf   INTRODUCTIONS

    On the 165th floor of the Silvercrest Enterprises Tower, from which the whole city could be seen, Siel was still listening to the end of Vince’s story. The last rays of the sun came through the glass wall and painted the other white walls on the sides of the chamber a yellow/crimson hue when Ma’Heron arrived. And with him, was the younger and slimmer Myron.“Hello, Myron! M, it’s nice to see you both again. I wish it was under better circumstances, though.”The Gamma nodded silently and respectfully at the Luna.“Hello, Siel! Wow, your first meeting as part of the pack! Are you nervous?” Myron said cheerily, which is his usual out-of-work personality which he hardly displays within their workplace.“I am, just a little bit… No, I’m actually… very… nervous,” honestly confessed V’s Luna.“Don’t worry, you’ll do great, I’m sure of it,” encouraged the CEO’s boyish-looking personal assistant. “It’s more of an introduction for you, so you don’t need to worry about it much yet. Besides, we’l

    Just then, M and Alexia arrived at the packhouse! They immediately joined the fighting without even shifting. They quickly got to V, who was still trying to make his way to Alpha Van der Meer…As soon as Alexia and M took their place by V’s side, the Dark Forest warriors moved away, not wanting to fight her. V saw this as an opportunity for the father and daughter to speak causing him to mindlink his Deltas and give his order of shifting their attention to the other enemy pack. Everyone, let’s lead our enemies away from Alpha Arnout and his daughter! GO! Let’s bring them all to Beta Aaron’s area so we can help him fight off the Crescent Moon pack as well! As V and his werewolves rushed off, the Silvercrest Alpha hoped for the best for his ferociously battling Gamma and his similarly continuously fighting mate …Unfortunately, Alexia’s father was not a forgiving man, even if his daughter had done nothing wrong to him at all.Attack them!
