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 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
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
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
It was late morning when I finally opened my eyes. The sun was already at its peak. I glanced quickly at the wall clock and frowned: fuck, it was 7:30 in the morning. I didn't even remember that I had to be at the company at 8 o'clock. So I quickly got out of bed and took a shower. For some reason, my heart was beating fast and my legs were shaking. The thought of going back to that place was driving me crazy. I shook my head and finished showering. I wore a semi-transparent dress and low heels. I also wore my hair in a ponytail and no make-up. I just left the house and took a taxi straight to Bennett's company. When I entered the building, everyone turned to me. Their eyes widened in surprise as they began to murmur. In a second, a group of employees approached me. At the sight of them, I took a step back and panicked; however, one of the women approached me with her eyes lowered. "Hester, we... We are so sorry" said the girl. -We misunderstood the situation. It is the first ti
Just imagining Bennett seeing me every day at work sent a shiver through my body. I immediately turned to him and frowned. "Alpha, I'd like to know if I can change offices," I said. "What? Why?" he asked with wide eyes. "I mean, I'm going to be his personal secretary now, I should have Solange's office, right?"He looked at me and arched an eyebrow, "That's it?".Before he could finish, I quickly interjected, "I know you're a busy man and everyone is at your feet, but I have conditions if I come back to work for you. I don't feel comfortable in that office, so I'd like to change it" I didn't even consider what he might say, but it was clear that he saw me through that glass every day and, knowing that, I couldn't work there. At my words, he was surprised "Uncomfortable? For what reason in particular?" he said. "Yes, in fact, I've felt that someone is spying on me in that office and I really don't like it, so that's my only condition," I added without wanting to digress. Bennett
In fact, it had been a long time since I had seen Alesso. The man was handsome and had a gentle expression on his face, which caused the women around me to stare at him in rapt attention.Delilah, on the other hand, crossed her arms and frowned, "It's a joke, isn't it? How can she be Alpha Bennett's personal secretary? She's a backstabbing bitch. Besides, Alpha Bennett's too smart to want a bimbo like her as his secretary. That's impossible," Delilah insinuated arrogantly. The women around her looked at her mockingly, but Alesso let out a soft grunt. He wanted to say something, but she stopped him. "Who are you? Do I pay you to come here and lie? What a low you have stooped". She added with a loud laugh. I thought Delta Alesso would respond, but the man just raised an eyebrow and stood silently watching her. "Leave me alone, Delilah" I said wanting to move towards the table and ignoring her "I don't have time for this".However, when I took a step away, she grabbed my arm and pull
Michael gave Alesso a sidelong glance and pursed his lips before turning his gaze to me. I gestured for him to sit next to me, but he smiled and shook his head. "I'd love to join you, but I've got a lot of work to do. See you later," Michael said, and walked away. I was a little puzzled by his response. But as soon as Alesso came back, I understood everything. Alesso was alpha Bennett's delta, so it was very rare for him to interact with the secretaries. Even we employees couldn't sit next to him. While I was thinking about that, Alesso's voice snapped me out of my trance "So, how is your first day as the CEO's personal secretary going?" he asked. I looked at him without forcing a grimace "Well, the same as before"."All the same? Shouldn't you be doing other things more... you know" he said winking at me.My pupils dilated at his insinuation.I was almost overcome with anger, but he spoke again."Alpha Bennett is a rather difficult man, and only his personal secretary could help
I had spent the whole afternoon sleeping, so I wasn't sleepy. I lay in bed and tossed and turned all over the bed. I tried to read a little to get to sleep, but I couldn't. My mind kept playing images of Bennett and everything that had happened. My mind just replayed images of Bennett and everything that had happened. As I thought in bed, an idea occurred to me. Bennett knew I would beg for my brother again, just as I had done the first time.If so, I would have to go to the company again and confront him. As I thought about that, a deep sigh escaped my lips. Fuck, fuck! This couldn't be happening. I spent the whole night thinking about Bennett's proposal. Shit, I'd have to become the alpha's bitch to get my brother's Gamma position back. On the other hand, I couldn't let my mother know everything that had happened. She still had heart problems and any worry could make her sick. Hours passed and the sun finally came out. My whole body was shaking and my eyes were heavy. I got ou
I spent a few days thinking only about Bennett and what he said. At night I would lock myself in my room and cry, while trying to spend as much time as possible in the library hiding the truth from my friends and my mother....Fuck, I longed for the old Bennett to come back and never have said those words to me. I couldn't understand why everything had to be like that, what was the reason the world always treated me like that? As I thought about that, I sat on the bed and looked at the mirror next to it. My eyes were puffy and my lips were purple; my hair had even lost luster and I was lost. However, a voice was heard from the dining room "Daughter, let's eat".I sighed, wiped the tears from my cheeks and went down to the dining room. It was the weekend and my mother was missing me spending so much time at home. "Didn't you look a little exhausted, didn't you sleep well?" my mother asked. I was about to answer her when her phone started ringing. She answered and her eyes sparkl
As I was in the cab on the way home, I went to the window and watched the whole ride.My mind kept replaying the words Bennett had said to me in the office. He seemed very confident in saying that I would go back to him, but a derisive snort left my lips. I would never go back to that guy, let alone everything he had said. Thinking about it, the car parked in front of my house and I thanked the driver before getting out. As soon as I entered the house, I greeted my mother and sat down next to her. "How did it go?" my mother asked."Good, a little exhausted. I just went to deliver something and I have the day off" I said feeling terrible for lying to my mother. She didn't ask many questions, but we did start talking a bit. I explained a couple of things to her and she understood perfectly. "I love you so much, Mom" I said giving her a huge hug. She smiled, kissed me on the cheek and hugged me back. Suddenly an idea flooded my mind and I couldn't help but ask "When you met dad di
I went up the elevator running away from Bennett, however, when the elevator opened at the reception desk, a shrill voice reached my ears."Oh, it's Hester Winters!" said Delilah with a mocking tone.I turned to look at her with an annoyed expression and let out an exhausted sigh. However, she let out a smirk and looked at me with disgust. "Gosh, I can see you haven't had a good day, have you?""What do you want?" I replied, not hiding my temper. "I want to know how it went last night with Alpha. I bet you tried to seduce him, as you do with all the men you meet, but by your face, I see you didn't succeed" she said, making the others present mock. For a moment I wanted to retort, but I remembered what Bennett had proposed. Was I, to everyone else, a slut who only slept with men for money? Did Bennett think of me that way too?I remained silent, as the voice of another employee was heard"Do you sound like you know Miss Hester very well, is that right?" the clerk asked Delilah."Of
From Hester's point of viewI thought about it all night and decided the best thing to do would be to quit. This man felt nothing for me, the bond was growing stronger every day and he just wanted to sleep with me like I was a slut. Thinking about it, I prepared my letter of resignation and left early for the company. When I informed Bennett of my decision, he looked at me stunned and mocking. "What makes you think I'm going to leak it?" He said with a cynical tone. "You need a secretary willing to sleep with you in exchange for money. I'm not that one" I replied fearlessly Bennett frowned and pushed the folder back toward me "Are you crazy?"Before I could respond, Bennett opened a drawer next to him, pulled out my purse and placed it on the desk next to my phone. I reached out to take it, but he pushed it away from my grasp "No, I'll only give it back to you when you tell me where you spent the night.""What are you talking about?" I asked confused. "You know perfectly well wh
From Bennett's point of view, After I dropped Hester off at her house, I immediately went to a club. Fuck, I was so mad at myself.I had tried to be gentle with her for so long, but her exquisite scent was unbearable. I should have told her my intentions from the beginning. However, my wolf was reluctant to be subdued. The reality is that this girl had something that made me admire her: not only her physique, but also the way she was, the way she spoke and thought.She was perfect in every way. However, I was an alpha, I didn't want to bond or fall in love with anyone. An entire pack and several extensions depended on me, and if I fell in love and the rogues knew about it, they could use it against me. With that in mind, I went straight to the club I frequented the most and walked to the bar. Since I walked in many women were looking at me with lascivious expressions, but I exuded a powerful aura that even I couldn't control myself. I ordered a bottle of vodka and began to drink
I walked down the street without looking back; I didn't care where I was going, I didn't even know where I was, I just wanted to forget the idea that my own mate was making me miserable. It was obvious that Bennett had always wanted me to be his sex slave. He never cared about me, and he never felt love for me. I thought he had bought me things, and even treated me better out of love, or because of your bond, but it was obvious that everything he did was to convince me to be his whore. Just thinking about it brought tears to my eyes and I couldn't help it.I did not understand why the moon goddess had put me in that situation, had I committed some sin in my past life?However, as I was walking, I heard a car approaching behind me. I didn't even turn around when I assumed it was Bennett following me.I picked up my pace, trying to avoid him, but he started honking his horn and stopped right next to me. "Get in the car" Bennett said to me from the window. I shook my head and continu
Didn't Bennett feel our bond? No, I can't keep thinking about it, hoping it was all a damn nightmare.I turned to him and sketched a smile "Is this a test" I asked, clenching my fists to keep from crying.However, as soon as I asked that question, a grimace of annoyance left my lips. I couldn't help but feel angry and disappointed at the same time Hadn't the moon goddess given me a slam dunk?"No, be my wife and stay with me. My wolf wants you every damn day" he said wanting to get closer to me.I reacted quickly and lowered my gaze by pressing my lips together to get away from his presence "Do you really not feel our bond?" I finally asked.
From Bennett's point of view, The bond with Hester was becoming more and more unbearable. She looked stunning in that dress. Her breasts looked perfectly round and her ass seemed to call to me. Plus, her waist was narrow and her face, like that of a goddess. At first I wanted to wait for the new treaty celebration party to end, but I couldn't take it anymore. So I bowed and took Hester to a hotel away from the herd. As soon as I wrapped my arms around her body, I noticed her heart begin to flutter nervously. I couldn't help but enjoy her reaction. She closed her eyes and sighed deeply as I brushed my nose against her neck and bit her gently."Ah" she moaned painfully. However, when I heard her moan, everything in me ignited "Fuck, you don't know how much you make me feel when I smell you" I said, biting her neck again. She gasped quietly as I tightened my grip on her waist and noticed her trembling body. Unable to stand it any longer, I turned my body and hugged her until I fe
