If Bennett spilled the coffee again, I was sure I would be fired. Sighing, I walked into the office and placed the cup on the desk in silence.

Bennett didn't even look up, he simply picked up the cup and took a light sip before placing it back on the desk.

I stared raptly at his expression, trying to imagine what would happen, but he placed the mug back on the table and pursed his lips.

"You're an idiot," he said softly.

When I heard those words, I clenched my fists with all my might. Fuck, was this man really like this all the time or was he just like this with me?

"Do you want me to ask someone else to make your coffee?" I asked with a deep sigh.

As soon as I said that, he crossed his arms and leaned back against the back of his seat as his eyes roamed over my face. I could feel his gaze roaming my entire body, as if he could read my thoughts.

"This is a serious company. Each one of my employees fulfills a specific role and my secretary's role is to make me a damn coffee when

    Without further ado, I exited the elevator and went to Bennett's office to hand him the file. As soon as I arrived, I approached his desk and extended my hand. He took the file and reviewed it in front of me with an annoyed expression. "You'll be with me at the meeting today," he added. As soon as I heard him say that, my eyes widened like two saucers. Solange was the one who went along with him to the meetings, so I had no idea what to do on those occasions. On the other hand, I knew that she talked with Bennett during the meetings, but she had been with the company for several years and knew the workings of the company well.Thinking about it, a shiver ran through my body. "Is something wrong?" he asked coldly, looking at me. I shook my head and shook my hands. "No, not at all, everything is perfectly fine, Alpha. I'll go get my bag" I said bowing in respect.He waved his hand and I quickly went to get my purse. I was in such a hurry that I didn't even have time to fix my hair,

    The meeting soon resumed, but it wasn't a few minutes later when my phone started ringing. All eyes were on me, so I pulled out my phone and silenced it. Apparently, my mother had picked the worst time to call me. She didn't even want to look at Bennett, as her heavy gaze swept over the back of my neck. The phone continued to ring a couple of times until Bennett gently turned his gaze toward me. "Answer your call," he said. When I heard that, I turned to him and opened my eyes in surprise. "What?" I asked.He didn't give any answer, just looked at me and pursed his lips. I didn't even want to say anything else, I knew his expression indicated annoyance, so I just picked up the phone and replied to my mother"I'm in a meeting," I whispered. "Oh, honey, I'm sorry. You had me worried. If you'll be out early for dinner?" she asked. "I'll try," I said before hanging up the call and putting the phone away.When I looked back at those present, they were all looking at me with surprised

    For a second I thought Bennett was going to punch me in the face, but when I came back to reality, I only felt his breath on my face. "What did you just say? Do you want to break the bond?" he asked in a thick, strong voice. His temper was dangerous, but when his scent reached my nostrils, I felt a relief. Fuck, how could I face him if just having him around made my world fall at his feet?I quickly shook my head and concentrated. It was the first time our bodies were so close, so I struggled. "Yes, I do" I stammered, lowering my gaze. At that moment, he opened his eyes fully, pressed his chest against mine and let out an annoyed grunt"Ah, yes? Why didn't you think of that when you came over to humiliate my family and my fiancée's family!"His angry words made my whole body shudder; however, all my attention fell on his last sentence. "I didn't... I couldn't control my she-wolf. If I had, I would have never gotten close to you and I would have just broken the bond" I said clenc

    My world was spinning out of control when he was around! I couldn't think, I couldn't even concentrate on anything!This bond was not healthy. However, I could understand his teasing, so I just frowned and raised my lips in a soft smile. "You mean you have no problem with me living my life the way I want to?" I asked. He scoffed at me and smacked his lips "Should I have? You're deluded!" he added mockingly. "Well, that sounds great to me" I said nodding my head. "I just don't want you around Freddy" he suddenly added. I opened my eyes wide and frowned "I've already said it, I'm not interested in Freddy, he's the one looking for me and asking for forgiveness for cheating on me with another girl. Why repeat it? It's obvious you think I'm a liar and that your brother is loyal."However, at that moment Bennett looked at me with danger in his eyes, it was obvious that he hadn't liked me talking like that about his younger brother. "I forbid you to insult my brother in that way! Are y

    On my way home, I turn to Michael and frown a little intrigued. He turns to me and smiles "Is something wrong?" he asked "How do you know Alpha Bennet?" I asked. "What are you talking about? Everyone knows him, he's the alpha of the pack and the CEO of New Moon Group" Michael replied mockingly. "I know, but he's a man who doesn't talk to his employees or pack members, and now they're talking to you?"At that moment, Michael let out a smile "Oh, you mean that? I don't know, I'm the director of the finance area, I guess he likes how I run the department" he said before pausing "And you, how do you know him?""What?""It's obvious that you guys are on good terms. You even interrupted me in the middle of a conversation with him and yet he said nothing. Another time, that will be an insult our alpha, you could even be punished" he said, making my eyes widen like saucers. I couldn't help but frown at his words. Then I remembered the time Bennett scolded me when I left his office withou

    The next day, my eyes felt heavy. I was very exhausted, I hadn't slept well lately. I got out of bed and took a shower. When I got out, I put on comfortable clothes and went to class.As soon as I got to school, Anna ran up to me. "Damn, what bad news" she said. "What's wrong?" I asked, arching an eyebrow. "Karla won't be back for two months. She's staying at her brother's dorm, it looks like she's met her mate" said Anna, sitting down on the bench next to me. "That's great!" I said.I was glad Karla met her mate, but, at the same time, I hoped she would have better luck than me. After talking a bit, we both went to class, but during the break she couldn't help but ask me about Bennett, so I told her everything that had happened."What, you mean he didn't reject you?" Anna said. "Apparently, he doesn't want to lose his alpha title," I said. "I think he lied to you. It's obvious that he can't contain himself to the bond and that's why he doesn't want to reject you. Besides, he'

    At one point I thought Delilah was just pretending, but it was obvious that she was in love with Freddy, which was quite funny to me. "Why are you doing this? I love you" She said sobbing. "Stop it, I don't want you to come near me again! If you don't want to get fired from the Alpha's company for that project that everyone knows didn't cost you anything" Freddy shouted.At his words, Delilah's eyes went wide. She reached out to take Freddy's hand, but he quickly pulled his hand away."Please, Freddy, you can't. You can't do this to me. You can't do this to me, I worked too hard for that job!"When I heard those words, I couldn't help but let out a smirk Hard work? This had to be a joke. "What? All you did was steal another girl's project!"Everyone around him immediately started muttering. On the other hand, I was quite surprised that Freddy had said that. Did he really believe me when I said Delilah had stolen my project? "What are you talking about? I would never do that! Who t

    Classes resumed and Anna and I parted ways. After a few hours, we returned to the garden and met Max, who came over and kissed Anna gently. I loved seeing them so adorable together. "We're going out this Saturday, you should come with us" Max said, sitting Anna on his lap. "This Friday?" I asked with a raised eyebrow."Yes, is that okay with you?" asked Anna with a pout on her lips. "It's fine with me" I said shrugging my shoulders. "Perfect, I'll talk to the rest of the guys" said Max pulling out his phone. When I heard that, my eyes widened like two plates" What are you talking about? What friends? Wouldn't it just be us?" I asked. "The guys... It will be less awkward" he said looking at Anna. She took my hand and smiled "It's just a group outing, besides, you can invite your friend. Michael, right?" I asked confused."Michael?" I asked confused. "Yes, you said he also works at New Moon Group. You should invite him and become friends with him, after all you will need him"

    Did Alpha Bennett just apologize to me? Was he for real? I never thought I would hear those words come from the lips of the darkest alpha in the shifter world. However, as I was rambling, a familiar voice was heard entering the bathroom. "Oh my God, what have my eyes seen? I shook my head and saw Anna's beaming smile approaching me, "What? What are you talking about? "Don't play dumb, I just saw Alpha Bennett come out of this bathroom. Was he here with you? Did he say something to you? Is that why it took you so long to touch up your makeup?" she asked, asking more than five questions in one second. "What are you insinuating?" I said.But before I could answer, she came closer and started scanning my neck with her eyes. In a second, her eyes widened like two plates."I see, you don't have any wild marks on your body? And from your smile, I see that he has apologized to you, hasn't he?"How... how do you know? Did you even hear him?""Heavens, Hester, I heard it all. I hid in the

    While I was wandering in my mind, suddenly Bennett's voice brought me back to reality "You are wrong, I didn't do it for that reason, I just want to correct what I did wrong. I know I behaved unfairly with you and I shouldn't have done it" he said with a low and indifferent tone. For a moment I was enraptured contemplating how her lips moved, but just at that moment a loud knock on the door brought me out of my head. "Hester, are you still there, are you all right?" Max's voice came from the hallway. With a gasp, I lifted my head and looked toward the door. Without hesitation, I put my hands on Bennett's chest and pushed him back. "Fuck, he's my friend.... You need to hide" I said in panic. At my actions Bennett opened his eyes in surprise and grabbed me by the waist to join my chest again. "What, are you afraid that he will see you here with me? Why are you behaving like this?" he said with an indifferent expression. When I heard his question, I looked him in the eye and felt a

    I could feel the heat of Bennett's breath on my skin as his hands squeezed my waist and arms.I wanted to lean my head against his chest, but I restrained myself and snapped back to reality. With a gasp, I opened my eyes and noticed his lips kissing my neck before he pulled away."Ready" he said in a deep tone. I quickly looked at myself in the mirror and was stunned. I knew that alphs had the power to heal serious wounds with their saliva, but it only worked on someone they really loved. From thinking about it, I felt my heart pounding. To my surprise, the claw marks had disappeared, making my eyes widen in surprise. Seeing my expression, he let out a mocking laugh and shook his head "Something to say?" he said, leaving his warm breath on my skin. Fuck, even his breath generated a million emotions inside my body. He was like a fucking oasis that I would go to for the rest of my life. "Thank you" I said as I still kept my eyes on the mirror. I couldn't believe that he had heal

    The closeness with Bennett was more than my she-wolf could bear. She screamed in excitement at the mate bond."Bennett... what are you doing?"I asked him in a cracked voice. He looked at me silently and forced me to look up. His gaze was dark and his expression dark. Our bodies were so close that I knew he could feel the bond as much as my wolf. On the other hand, my heart was about to explode in my chest when he suddenly grabbed my waist and pulled me closer to his chest. Fuck, I felt like magic was floating around me. I wanted to close my eyes and let myself be carried away by his exquisite scent. But I shook my head and held on. As I wandered in my thoughts, he lifted his other hand and caressed my arm with his fingertips.My whole body shuddered at his touch. However, his eyes roamed my body making me feel a little uncomfortable. He could see my black dress, which fit me perfectly."Wow, I see you can dress that way too" he said moving his fingertips gently across my skin.

    I couldn't understand why I kept bumping into Bennett. It was as if the moon goddess wanted our bond to remain. Not wanting to think about it, I shook my head and focused on my new friends. "So, what shall we order for lunch?" hinted one of the boys. Soon we started ordering food and, within minutes, four waiters arrived with our meals. "Fuck, this was delicious!" said one of the boys. "That explains why only the high ranking ones come here". Hearing his comments, we all laughed and then a waitress handed us two white wines that Max had bought.Max took one of the glasses and, with a huge smile, took the cork and shook it sharply. The bottle opened and he poured the first glass of white wine. Then he poured the rest, but with one wrong move one of the glasses spilled and soaked my dress and my face.At that, we started laughing and Max apologised "Shit, Hester, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry." "Don't worry, I'll go clean myself up in the bathroom" I said with a chuckle.At that m

    After getting ready, Anna and I went down to the living room to say goodbye to my mother, after which we both got into the car."And Max?" I asked. "Oh, didn't I tell you? He just left to pick up his friends" Anna said with a pout on her lips."His friends?" I asked confused."Yes. Did you think we would leave you alone? I think you should have invited Michael. He is a..."Before Anna finished talking, my phone started ringing. I quickly pulled out the phone thinking it was Michael and answered without looking at the screen. "Hello... just..."I hadn't even finished speaking, when suddenly, a deep voice came from the other end of the phone "Why did you refuse to come back to the company?".When I heard it, my heart raced and I felt sick to my stomach - was it Bennett? I turned my gaze to Anna, who gave me an intrigued gesture. "Who is it?" She asked in a low tone.I opened my eyes like saucers and my expression was suspicious "Anna...it's Bennett..." I whispered to her. She opened

    From Hester's point of viewThe days passed slowly and I still didn't know how I was going to tell my mother about my firing and what had happened with Bennett. She was so happy that I was working at the Alpha's company, that knowing the truth would break her heart.In the face of that, every time I left school I would hide in the library or go into town alone and stay in one of the desolate parks. I didn't want to make her suffer any more and saw no other option but to lie. However, I told Max and Anna what had happened at the company.At first, Max was furious and started swearing at Bennett, but Anna calmed him down and they both stuck by me through it all.That evening, when I got home and was getting ready to go out for the evening, Anna and Max had been begging me for days to go out with them, but my discouragement prevented me from doing so. However, that day they had made me swear not to let them down, so Anna went with Max to my house to get me. "Hester, you're ready now"

    I had been thinking for days that something was wrong. I couldn't understand the reason why Hester had betrayed me.Even though Solange had a good argument, something inside me kept bothering me. I couldn't help but keep thinking about it, so I calmly reviewed the records of the employees' bank accounts. As I was looking at them, my eyes widened like saucers when one of the records caught my attention."Five million dollars?", I thought to myself.I quickly looked at the account owner's information and sighed, "Solange?". Apparently, she had received five million dollars five days before she fired Hester. Thinking about that, I grabbed the phone from my desk and called my beta. "Alpha, is something wrong?" Derek asked. "Derek, take care of investigating everything about this bank account. I also want to know who is the owner of the last transaction made" I said. "Of course" hinted Derek before hanging up. I immediately sent him the account details and waited. I sharpened my elbo

    From Bennett's point of view,I never thought Hester could go this far. She had not only ruined my engagement to the alpha's daughter, but she had also lied about my brother, and now she had sold out my project. It was obvious that she was very greedy and malevolent. I wanted to confront her and wipe that cynical smile off her face, but she was so fucking beautiful and my wolf wouldn't let me vent my anger. The reality was that it had been almost five days since I had kicked her out of my company. I was so furious with her that I yelled at her in front of everyone, regardless of the humiliation I was causing her. I just didn't want to see her again. How could she betray me like that?As I was thinking about it, I was sitting in my office with a frown on my face. I had come out of a tedious meeting and I couldn't help but look over at the glass compartment and feel terrible. I had spent every day of my last month watching her work in her office. She was meticulous in her work, knew
