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
The reality is that mate's bond with an alpha was the strongest and I couldn't imagine what she was going through, but I couldn't accept or reject it either. Thinking about it, I looked away and looked at Alesso. "You're right. If I'm helping her, it's only because she's my Gamma's sister, Lucas" I said without showing any emotion.Alesso made a disgusted face and drank some water from his glass. We were both silent for a second until I spoke again "Tell me, what are you doing here?""I came here on a matter of your ex-fiancée's pack," he said, capturing my full attention. "What's going on?" I asked with a completely nonchalant expression."The young Alpha of the herd is back, so his father is going to hand over the title of head Alpha of the herd to him," said Alesso. My face became relieved as I looked at the table. Gunter was my ex-fiancee's older brother. The reality is that the man had health problems because of his bad decisions, so his father, the alpha, had sent him abroad
Hester and I left my office and walked to the lift. As she pressed the button for the employee lift, I had an idea. "You can use my private lift," I said without expressing any emotion.At my words, she turned to me and opened her eyes in complete surprise. I looked at her for a second until the private elevator opened, stepped in and gestured for her to come in with me.She shook her head and quickly moved to my side. In fact, the employee lift was always full, so using this one would allow her to move around the company better. "Thank you, Alpha" she said, looking down. The lift went down to the first floor. We both got off and she bowed to me in respect. "Thank you very much for the job, Alpha. I promise I'll do my best to make sure you have no reason to complain" she said with a smirk on her lips. When I heard her say that, I nodded and she immediately headed for the taxi rank. I watched her drive away and got into my car. "Where to, alpha?" my driver asked. I looked at hi
Without hesitation, I stormed towards Delilah and confronted her. "Who the hell do you think you are to spread such a lie about me," I shouted with clenched fists. At that instant, she turned to me and looked at me smirking, "Oh, but look who's here. Our delta's new favourite and Alpha Bennett's personal secretary," she said.Hearing her words filled me with anger, so I didn't even think about it as I reached out and slapped her hard on the cheek.At that moment, I could hear how everyone screamed in shock. However, I was pleased to see Delilah's reddened cheek. She swayed, placing her hand on her cheek. "How dare you?" she insinuated. "You're into..." she started to say. I didn't even let her finish when I quickly interjected, "What? How dare I? You have falsely accused me! How can you always be so cheap? I should have done the same and published pictures when I found you fucking my boyfriend!"Although I no longer cared about Freddy, I knew exactly what his starting point was. A
As soon as I got back to the company, I went straight up to my floor. I didn't even look at the employees mumbling around me; I just stopped in the hallway when I got off the elevator and saw a couple of alphas coming out of the meeting room. "Gosh, Alpha Bennett is a determined man. From the beginning he's been looking to lead the Midnight Sun pack.""But doesn't Alpha Walter disagree? I don't think he'll let it go so easily. He asked me what agreement those men had come to" I heard one of the alphas mutter.I looked at the two alphas with a raised eyebrow as I wondered what would have happened in that meeting.On the other hand, I stood outside the room waiting for Bennett. When all the alphas came out, I finally saw Bennett come out of the room.I felt a rush of joy as soon as I smelled the delicious aroma of my mate. I quickly ran to him with a wide smile. "Alpha..."Bennett looked at me and motioned for me to follow him to his office. Without a word, I followed his footsteps i
At that moment, I stopped dead in my tracks. Fuck, what had I done? I felt a wave of shame run through my chest. I quickly sat down on the bench and looked down. However, Walter's voice came through "Can you see that? It's huge" Walter said, catching my attention. At that, I scanned all around me, but found nothing "What are you talking about? I don't see anything" I said. "No? I see huge fear and jealousy everywhere" he added mockingly. My eyes widened like saucers as I ran my gaze over him. Walter let out a derisive snort as he shoved his hands in his pockets. "I see that your fear is bigger than you are. It's a mistake, don't you think?” he exclaimed, pausing slightly. I wanted to ask what he meant, but he interjected. "If it causes you so much distrust, drop it and come with me" insinuated Walter. I blinked awkwardly as his words reached my ears "What... what are you saying?" "I said come with me and leave him" he repeated again as he extended one of his hands towar
Before I could finish, Walter sat down next to me and leaned into me, making me step back and lean against the back of the bench. "You look beautiful, do you dress like that for him?" he asked. My cheeks turned completely red at his words. Indeed, he was right, but how could I tell him? Shaking my head, I cleared my throat and looked at him "You... are you the son of Alpha Damian, Agatha's brother?" I finally asked."Yes, Alpha Damian is my father" he answered changing his soft expression to a mournful one. "Your sister... she..." I said, stopping my words with a slight pause. The reality was that I didn't know how to talk to him now that I knew who he really was. Besides, he was the stepbrother of the woman who wanted my man. "And what's the question?" he hinted sounding serious."I want you to tell her to stay away from my mate" I said clenching my fists boldly.At my question, Walter arched an eyebrow as he leaned against the back of the bench "That's not a question, and why
I was completely shocked when I heard him say that. At first, he came out of the meeting room with a dangerous and cold aura, but now he spoke to me kindly, and even smiled confidently. "Are you coming?" he hinted again.I pursed my lips and looked around the meeting room. Everyone still seemed busy and Bennett said he didn't need me. At that, I just turned to Walter and nodded. I walked quietly behind Walter as the employees looked at him curiously. "Is he alpha, Walter?" muttered one of the secretaries. "Oh, he's very handsome" "I've heard he's a powerful and cruel man""Heaven, he even murdered his own mate to keep all the power for himself""It's absurd, I hear he hasn't met his mate and wanders from herd to herd in search of her"As Walter and I entered the elevator, a myriad of rumors were heard. The reality is that I knew nothing of the rumors about Walter. In fact, the only thing the company could verify was that Alpha Walter and Alpha Bennett are rivals. Faced with th
When the clock struck 8:30, an idea occurred to me. I quickly pulled out my phone and dialed one of the most famous restaurants in town. I wanted to make a reservation for Bennett and me, after all, tonight was ours. As soon as I made the reservation, I noticed a great relief and got up from my desk to walk to the door of the meeting room. I knew the meeting would be over any minute, so I waited for Bennett to invite him to dinner as soon as he came out. A couple of minutes passed when suddenly the door to the meeting room burst open. The first to come out was a man in a dark suit with short hair. Although I didn't see his face, I was impressed by his broad back and enormous stature. The man radiated a strange, strong power, and I stood still watching his back for a second, until he turned to me. My eyes widened in surprise when I saw his face "Luan?" I whispered. The man looked different, with an arrogant and cold aura, contrary to how kind he seemed to be to me. "How did y
But, just then, Derek's phone started ringing. Derek looked at Bennett, who nodded his head in permission. Quickly, Derek picked up the phone and answered the call "Yes. I'll pass him the phone" Derek said, handing the phone to Bennett.Bennett looked at the phone, placed it roughly over his ear and looked back at me."Go back to your office" he said. At that, I nodded and walked toward the office door. However, as I was about to open the door, I heard Bennett's voice behind me. "What!" shouted Bennett angrily. His shout made me gasp in fear. I had no idea what was going on or that they were talking to Bennett. But it was clear he was furious. "Why the hell do you want to move up the meeting? Have you threatened the other Alphas?” hinted Bennett angrily. I didn't want to listen any longer, but opened the door, but before I could take a step, I heard Bennett's shout again. "Do whatever you want! But if you dare to touch her, I will deal with you myself. Don't forget who I am an
Bennett knew exactly how to drive me crazy. I wanted to give myself to him right there as he caressed my body under my clothes. I moved my waist to brush against his huge bulge as his tongue roamed my mouth. I was lost in his devouring kiss when suddenly I noticed his hand sliding down to my thick thigh and grabbing my panties snapping them. I gasped as I felt one of his fingers caress my folds; a feeling of pleasure and desperation coursed through my body. "Fuck!" I gasped awkwardly as I felt his finger caress my clit. My heart started pounding so fast that I didn't even wait a second before I got off his lap and leaned right between his legs. I didn't look away from his face as my hands grabbed his fly and unbuttoned his pants. A sigh escaped my lips as I pulled down his pants and Bennett's huge cock popped out right in front of my face. My eyes widened like saucers and my skin bristled. It wasn't the first time I'd seen my mate's cock, but it was undoubtedly perfect. A
Bennett was silent as he looked at me with an annoyed expression. I couldn't understand what he was thinking. What if Agatha manages to fall in love with him? What if Bennett leaves with her? What if he abandons me or exiles me from the pack? Fuck, I felt my stomach churn at so many questions. I shook my head and moved a little closer to Bennett. "Mate, I don't want you to be mad at me. We can work out anything. But please don't let that woman come near you" I said that as I laid my head on his chest. The reality is that I didn't want to lose Bennett. He was my mate and the second chance at love that the goddess had given me. After all, Freddy had broken my heart, but now everything was starting to shine again. I wanted to keep my mate in my life no matter what it took. He was my man and I was completely his. "Stop thinking so much. Concentrate on your work and your studies" Bennett hinted as he began to stroke my hair. The simple touch of his warm hands on my head created a
However, even before I could nod, Agatha's eyes widened in terror. "What? Why? Why is the Midnight Sun pack going?" she asked with terror in her tone of voice.At that, I raised a confused eyebrow. She really was terrified, but why, wasn't it her father's pack? "Is Alpha Walter's presence important" Bennett said indifferently. Agatha shook her head quickly "No, it's not important. My father can represent the pack. It is not necessary for Alpha Walter to attend tomorrow's meeting" she said awkwardly. As soon as Agatha said that, Bennett's eyes turned black, he clenched his fists and glared at Agatha. She cleared her throat and lowered her gaze "It's... it's Alpha Walter" she said fearfully. "So what? This is my pack. Alpha Walter can't do anything here" Bennett said.My eyes widened like saucers when I heard him. For a second I was confused; after all I had read something about alpha Walter. Although the title of alpha belonged by blood to Agatha's older brother, they gave the t
