The lighting, the space, the decor... everything was luxurious, aesthetically appealing and beautiful. For a second I stood there admiring it all, until I shook my head and walked toward the reception desk.

"Excuse me?", I said.

The three women exchanged glances and gestured to each other, until one of them raised her gaze to me. She was beautiful, with red lips and warm makeup.

"Good morning, how can I help you?" she asked me with a sweet smile on her face.

"Good morning. I'm Hester, from Central High School. I've been called for an interview at 10 am." I said.

The girl nodded and waved her hand as she typed on her computer. "You can wait in the waiting room for a moment. I'll call you soon for your interview" she said politely.

I nodded and turned toward the waiting room, which was a bit far from the front desk. Smiling at her, I walked over to the couch and sat down cross-legged.

I spent a couple of minutes in agony. I looked at many women with a haughty look on their faces a

    I had no idea why Bennett had said that. Fuck, I felt ridiculous when I learned what that idiot thought of me. However, I took a breath and looked at him without losing myself in his attractiveness. "You're wrong," I said seriously.He looked at me and leaned against the back of his seat like a true king. He took the folder in his hands and sighed, "I'm never wrong."I glared at him furiously, while my she-wolf whimpered in pain. It was obvious she was in pain from the way our mate was treating us. "Hester Winter Sandman..." he said in a low tone. "I see you got a perfect 10 on your evaluation. How?" he asked incredulously."Study days. No doubt about it." He heard my response and gave a sigh and continued to flip through the folder in his hand. He was mocking me? He spoke as if I hadn't gotten that result by dirty tricks. "High school isn't easy," he said mockingly."Yes, I know, that's why I work

    From Bennett's point of view.When I saw her walk into the office, I couldn't take my eyes off her face. That girl was beautiful, and her lips, so full..... Without bitterness, I didn't let my wolf control me and treated her like the greedy girl she was. When she left the room, she smiled sidelong at me, but I could still inhale her delicious scent, now permeating every inch of the office. Fuck, a wave of anger swept through my body when she stood up in that haughty manner and closed the door without even listening to me."But who dared that woman!" I shouted to myself. I couldn't understand what was going through my mind. I was furious and unsatisfied. She was acting like she didn't care what her own alpha said! She was a slut! Fuck, every day I'm more sure I made the best decision.Thinking about that, I looked down at the folder containing her resume. Hester had the best resume I had ever reviewed, but her actions always ruined everything.Ever since that presentation I kept t

    As I was rambling in my thoughts, the bus pulled up in front of the high school. I said goodbye to the driver and walked toward the campus with a funereal expression. However, when I looked up, I noticed many students murmuring and jeering at me. For a few seconds, I thought Delilah had spread rumors again, but then I realized it was because of my outfit. "Fuck, fuck, fuck, I forgot to change," I said to myself. I was dressed formally, and the guys didn't hesitate to laugh. I looked like a complete failure. I quickly went to my locker and got some clothes, but as I was heading to the bathroom to change, my phone rang. "Good morning," I answered, seeing the unfamiliar number on the screen. "Good morning, is this Hester Winters?" asked a soft female voice. "Yes, this is Hester," I said arching an eyebrow."Miss Hester Winter, this is Solange, the personal secretary of Alfa Bennett, New Moon Group. I am calling to inform you that you have been selected to work as assistant to the

    Any girl would be ecstatic to be Bennett's mate, however, for me it was nothing more than an endless nightmare. "Hester... Is this some kind of joke?" mentioned Max, a little paranoid. "I didn't...fuck. I stammered, not knowing what to say. "Shit, Alpha Bennett is your destined mate?" Damn! Do you know what that means?" Anna hinted. "What are you talking about?" "It means Bennett called off his engagement for you!" That's got a sneaky ring to it" Anna half shouted. In fact, Anna was a little right in her words.When I told Bennett that I was his mate, he simply disappeared and called off the marriage to the alpha's daughter.For a second, a faint smile tugged at my lips, but I heard Anna's voice again. "But... there's still something I don't understand.... If alpha Bennett called off his engagement with that girl for you, why then doesn't he make public the bond he shares with you?".I couldn't help but frown and look at Anna quizzically. "I don't think that's going to happen,"

    Bennett's smell was fucking delicious, like a million flowers with lavender and chocolate.However, after I inhaled a bit, Anna's voice snapped me out of my reverie. "You should give it back to him. He'd appreciate it," she said with a wink. I looked at her and let out a sigh. It was obvious she was getting the wrong idea of what was really going on. Without a word, I got up from my seat and walked back to my house. I couldn't wait to tell my mother that I finally had a job at the New Moon Group.She gave me a huge hug and kissed my forehead excitedly, "Does Lucas know?" she asked me excitedly. I shook my head, not knowing what else to say. At that, she picked up the phone and tried to call him, but before she dialed his number, I quickly stopped her."Mother, don't say anything to Lucas yet," I said. At that moment, she arched an eyebrow and looked at me in confusion, "Is something wrong?"."No... it's just that I want to tell him the news personally," I said. "Besides, he must

    On the other hand, when I finished filing the folders, I sat down at my desk and checked my phone. However, while I was surfing the net, there was a knock at the door. I quickly straightened up and looked at a woman entering the office. She was wearing a long fuchsia skirt and a loose-fitting white shirt."Good morning, Miss Hester. I am Dilana Monik, but you can call me Dil. I will be in charge of training you. In some of your tasks", said the woman politely. Soon, she started to show me some things on the computer. In fact, the woman explained to me that no one could have access to my computer or my data, because, if anyone else knew Bennett's schedule, it could jeopardise a lot of business. After a couple of hours, she finished explaining the most important things and smiled, "I think that's all for now.""By the way, many congratulations" she said. "Why?" I asked confused."Your new position is one of the most acclaimed by the young girls in the herd," said the woman with a s

    Sighing, I got up from my desk and walked out of my office into Bennett's huge office. I stood in front of the door and felt how my legs were shaking.With a sigh, I tapped the door three times and waited to hear him. "You can come in," he said. As soon as I heard him, I quickly turned the knob and opened the door to his office. When I entered the office, however, I didn't see Bennett. Had I not heard Bennett in the office? I scanned the place a little confused, but just as I was about to look into the room there, his gruff, serious voice came from behind me."What do you think you're looking for in there?" he asked. With a gasp, I turned and saw him there, sitting on his couch with a glass of wine in his hand. Fuck, the light from the window was streaming across his face, making his light eyes light up the room, and his features looked incredibly perfect from that angle. Even his scent flooded my nostrils like a perfect autumn. "Alpha Bennett... I... I came to return your suit

    I didn't even want to ramble on in my mind, so I looked away from him as my eyes reddened. Even if I avoided it, Bennett was my mate and his words hurt me. However, at that moment, the voice came through the door again, "Alpha, I can come in." said Solange. "Yes, you can come in," Bennett replied, causing my eyes to widen like two saucers.As soon as I heard that, I quickly straightened up and pushed Bennett away from me. However, as soon as I looked at Solange, she furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. "What are you doing here?" she asked me, walking over to Bennett's desk. "Did you not hear my question?" she hinted again.I didn't even need to answer. I just lowered my gaze and handed over my hands in embarrassment. However, just as she was about to say something else, Bennett interjected."I called her into my office" he said.When I heard him, I quickly turned my gaze to him and swallowed dryly. He had helped me? What the hell was going on? "I understand," Solange said as her s

    Bennett's growl made everyone fall to their knees on the ground at once. At that moment, my eyes fell on his face. His grim expression and the way his eyes turned black made him look fucking sexy. Thinking about that, I shook my head and snapped back to reality. "Are you okay?" Lucas asked.I nodded my head and looked at him with a raised eyebrow "Lucas? Why did you bring him? I called out to you!" I asked in a soft whisper.Lucas stroked my hair as he held my hand "I was at the Alpha mansion when I got your call".When I heard that, a solar discomfort crossed my chest. I couldn't help but think of Agatha, who now lived there, and Bennett, who evidently went to see her."Hester, why were you out of the house? You're still hot with fever" she hinted at me when she saw my silence.I looked up and smelled Bennett's delicious scent. But, before I could say anything, the old man's voice was heard. "Alpha, Bennett, please forgive us..." said the man fearfully.Bennett looked at the man a

    Immediately, four burly men approached from the parking lot. Two of them grabbed the girl's arm and tried to pull her away from me, while the other two guards grabbed me by the waist and dragged me away. The girl's screams, full of terror, could be heard over and over again. My mind was clouded for a few seconds as everyone passing by on the street began to approach to see the scene. "Let go of me!" I couldn't even finish my words when suddenly the old woman pushed me and I fell backwards to the ground. The pain in my back became even more intense as I tried to get up "Leave the girl alone!" I shouted angrily.Alpha Erik let out a growl and stopped in front of me "Who the hell do you think you are to threaten an alpha?" he insinuated, kicking my side causing a scream of pain to escape my lips.I didn't even say a word when he leaned over and grabbed my neck. "I don't know who the hell you are, but you just made a huge mistake. I'll make your life a living hell! I wasn't scared of

    After a few minutes, I got off the elevator and walked through the lobby straight to the exit, but, just then, Delilah's gaze landed on me. I tried to ignore her and make my way, but she ran up and stopped right in front of me with a smile on her face."Oh, Hester, is something wrong? Let me guess..." Delilah paused as her sneer became more and more evident. It was obvious that everyone in the company knew about Bennett's engagement. At that, I looked away from Delilah and tried to make my way over, but she stopped me again. "I know... Alpha showed you where you really belong. Gosh, have you seen Miss Agatha? She's a goddess, she's beautiful, she's got money, she's elegant, and besides, she's marrying Alpha Bennett. Clearly, there is no more room for trash lovers like you" Delilah said mockingly. Her words came to me like a big poisoned dagger, but I just shook my head and looked at her. "You can believe whatever you want. I don't have time for your bullshit"I didn't expect her

    The mere touch of Bennett's hand on my wrist made my whole body shudder. I immediately turned my gaze to him and tried to break free from his grip, but he tightened his fingers and held me steady. "Why are you so stubborn?" he asked looking at me with his deep, cold eyes. "I don't want you to touch me again," I growled, before I jerked my hand roughly and loosened his grip.I took a step back and pulled my body away from his, but he frowned and his gaze became calmer."You're still burning hot. You have a fever""That's none of your business. Go and worry about your wife, she's your future Luna, she does deserve all your concern." A roar came out of my throat without me being able to help it.I wanted to turn and run away from the office, but he grabbed my arm again and pulled me to his hard chest "You must calm down" he said, leaving his warm breath on my face. "Let go of me! I'm not going to calm down!" I screamed, struggling to pull away from his grip, but he only tightened hi

    When I finished showering, I stepped out of the bathroom and noticed that my body was shaking. I shook my head to calm down as I put on a dress and a pair of low heels. Part of me wanted to go back to bed and keep sleeping, but I needed to break away from this thing that was killing me inside. . Thinking about it, I combed my hair and went downstairs to the living room. "Will you go out?" my mother asked with a raised eyebrow. "Yes, I'll go to the company. I must finish some urgently needed work" I hinted, clenching my fists behind my back. "But you have a fever. You can't. "Don't worry. I'll be fine" I announced trying to calm my mother down. She nodded and I said goodbye before leaving the house. I took a cab and headed for the company.As soon as the car pulled up, my eyes widened at the decorations all over the place. It was obvious that everything was for Bennett's engagement. "We've arrived" said the cab driver, snapping me out of my thoughts. "Thank you very much", I s

    After talking to Lucas for a while, he let out a sigh and got up from the couch "Are you hungry? Do you want me to fix you something to eat?" "No, thanks. Where's my mother?" I asked, changing the subject."She's asleep. I didn't want her to be here when you came over" He said with a raised eyebrow."Thank you. I'll go to my room. I'll get some sleep" I said getting up from the couch without any encouragement. Lucas nodded his head, but before I took a step, I heard his voice at my back "Are you going to be okay?". At his question, I turned around and a smirk left my lips "Lucas... if you knew Bennett was going to marry Agatha, why didn't you tell me? He has to reject me in order to marry me" I asked curiously. "I know. And you don't know how much I thought about it. But, when I went back to training, Alpha Bennett talked to me" he said, leaving me surprised. "What?""Apparently there's a way to break the mate bond without you dying or him losing the title. But only he knows that

    From Lucas's point of viewWhat had happened to Hester? Where could she be? I walked in circles all damn night hoping to find her. However, when I finally got through to her, she sounded dazed, as if something bad had happened. "Did you talk to her?" my mother suddenly asked. "Yes, she... She spent the night with some friends. She'll be back soon" I said, lying. My mother sighed in relief and went back to her room. After all, we'd been up all morning waiting for Hester. I really wanted to talk to Hester alone when she got home. She didn't sound good on the phone, which set off an alarm in me. Thinking about it, I heard a car parked in front of the house. I quickly ran to the window and saw her get out of the car. I opened the door and waited for her, but, as soon as she looked at me, I was wide-eyed. Her eyes were puffy and her dress was wet. "Hester, what happened to you?" I asked, swallowing spittle.Her small body began to tremble as she took a deep breath "I just spent

    I wiped the handkerchief across her cheek and wiped them away. She froze for a second, until something brought her back to herself and she snatched the handkerchief from my hand."What are you doing?" "I dry your tears" I answered. "What for? Who cares what I look like? The only one I cared that saw me, doesn't care about me. He only saw me with eyes of lust" she added turning her face red again."Leave that man" I hinted. She let out a bitter smile and threw the handkerchief to the ground "I know he doesn't love me, nor does he care about our bond. But I don't plan to destroy him, I'll just walk away and get my life together. You can leave me alone" she hinted sure of her words.She tried to turn to walk away, but a smirk peeked at my lips "Do you really think Alpha Bennett will let you go so easily? He won't stop. He'll find you and lock you up. Only I can get you out of his malicious clutches"She looked at me without saying anything. She just smiled curtly and walked off into t

    How could I live now without Bennett? I had fallen completely in love with the man. Suddenly, all the memories of him came to my mind. His face, his body, the way I thought he treated me out of love.... It was all a lie. I had deluded myself into something that didn't exist. He was the alpha Bennett, a man without heart or mercy. Everyone was right: Bennett was cruel. However, as those thoughts entered my head, I felt my eyes sparkle strangely. "Stop the car!" I shouted.Despite that, however, Walter looked at me and continued driving. "Stop the damn car!" I shouted loudly.At that, Walter slammed on the brakes and stopped the car in a corner of the road.Without saying anything, I opened the door and tried to get out, but, just before I put my legs out, I felt Walter grab my arm. "Where are you going?” he asked as he approached me "This place is dangerous" he said as he approached me. I felt his breath hit my face, but I didn't push him away; rather I looked him in the eyes
