LENA.

I decided to do something special for Alexander since he had been helping me out in the house. He has also been spending the night with me. I knew our relationship wasn't official yet and it might never be. But, at this moment, I have decided not to think about it.

I wrote some love letters for him. I didn't have the money to get him a physical gift but I could write him letters that would show him how much I appreciated him. Getting to his office, I looked around for the best place to place the letter.

While looking around, I heard footsteps heading toward his office. Turning around, I got his scent which meant he was almost here. Damn, shouldn't he be in class right now? Instantly, I went and hid under the table. It was supposed to be a surprise!

I held my breath so that he wouldn't get my scent. Then I prayed he wouldn't stay long in the office.

“God, I can't stand her anymore. I am only doing this because I pity her. All this affection is for pity alone. Yet, I can't

    ALEXANDER. Later that night, I got texts. “Hello, our new daddies!” The text had too many emojis. I wasn't even joking right now; there were excessive ones. Okay, I wasn't ready to deal with kids. “Send me your mama’s Cash App. I'm gonna send you money. Just text me whenever you need it. Also, only ever go straight to the point.” I used my full stop effectively, conveying the message clearly. I was going to support them financially only. I walked over to the kitchen to grab coffee, my favorite drink, especially when I was stressed, like today. Work closed up early because of the door that I smashed. Apparently, Royce thought the moon goddess was telling him to give the workers the rest of the day off. The most unserious Alpha ever, yet he still managed to come out the best time. Now Jamie’s jet project was ours like a freaking charm. I didn't get to see Lena for the rest of the day. Just then, my laptop peeped and I knew it was the kids. They must be so happy; it was the least I

    LENA. “You must really think you are special, huh?” My chest was poked suddenly and when I turned around I was met by the two young women from the reception the other day. Royce had saved me from them that day but today it looked like no one was going to save me. “Special?” I asked sighing. I was merely waiting for my coffee this morning while thinking of the pile of jobs in front of me. I was also supposed to be at Jamie’s house by eleven to sign the jet project. Getting there wasn't the problem, being with him was. I still didn't know why he requested me of all people. “Yeah, because you got to speak with Jamie and Mr Monaco wants you to work directly with him. He hates partnership!” She spat. I didn't know her name but she had brunette short hair and the second girl was the one I saw at the front desk the other day. “You don't have to bully me, I have kids already. Two of them. I am not someone Mr. Monaco can be interested in,” I sighed. I just didn't want to be involved in t

    ALEXANDER. She literally said it to my face that she wants to be with Royce. And I don't give a dime about that. I walked to my office, ignoring her. I left her with Royce because I didn't care. I was literally getting my hands on Jamie’s project because of her. I hated that man so much, I have vowed never to be on any of his projects. I didn't care anyway. I sat behind my desk, constantly looking up at the door, but no one came. She didn't come with me. Where did she go? Didn't I tell her to come wth me? She was supposed to be working with me from now on. Why was she so stubborn? I tried to ignore her and concentrate on working; it was the only thing that could fully take her off my mind. To work and work and work. However, she was the only thing that kept popping up on my screen. I hated this. I hated it so much. I got to my feet and started to pace around the room, thinking about what to do. How would I make her come to my office without having to force her? I placed one finger

    LENA. Jamie walked out of the office, and I swear, I trembled. His steps were slow and dangerous. He was glaring at me when I turned to him, and he looked like a little devil. I knew that this was it, and this man was going to order the downfall of the company that I just joined. Royce might be acting all chilled, but I know deep down he already hates me, and I know deep down there would be no need to be scared. Alexander will remember me because he never wanted to see me again. I stayed still, shocked by the new development. This was it. This was my doom, and no one was going to save me from it. “Royce, who is this little chipmunk?” His devilish eyes didn’t leave mine, and I was left to look at the marble floor. I couldn’t even raise my head because of what I did. “She does look like a chipmunk.” Royce laughed, and I wondered if he ever took anything seriously. “Her name is Lena.” Alexander’s cold voice sounded, and for a second I thought that he was mad because Jamie called me a

    ALEXANDER.“She is no one!” I had to say those words to Jamie even when she meant the entire world to me in this moment. Perhaps I was playing too fast in my mind, but a man knows what he wants when he sees it. I wanted Lena. Jamie didn’t seem to believe me. He stared at her strongly, his gaze unwavering. He looked upset at the same time; he wasn’t reacting, and that seemed to baffle me. Why was he staring at her like that? To stop him, I pulled Lena away from him. Yes, she had gone ahead and said some words she was not supposed to say to him, and that made him step forward toward her, and she didn’t even look scared of him. Slamming her against the wall, I could feel anger surge through me, and even I couldn’t explain why I was feeling so much anger in this moment. “Do you even know who the heck he is?!” I was glaring at her now, and she was indifferent about it. She didn’t look like she cared, but I wanted her to. I was going to protect her, but she needed to be careful. I was mer

    LENA. He told me to think about it. He really wanted me to sleep with Alexander? Why did he even come up with that idea? I sat in my side of the office. I was brought here after Royce dismissed me, and since I had issue with those girls, no one was willing to speak to me. The rumour that I was seducing their bosses had spread like wildfire. Yet, I was shocked because I was used to this type of setting. I had been bullied my whole life. Every time I go somewhere new, I subconsciously start to expect bullying.I was the team leader, yet no one had walked up to me to fill me in on the pending jobs. They were either talking among each other or not saying anything at all. “Where is she?” A man's voice sounded from the door and even before I raised my head to see who it was, I already knew. Then with a grunt he walked over to me and before I could say a word, he grabbed my arm and pulled me from the chair like I weighed nothing. He towered over me, making me seem like I was short when I w
