Nova’s Pov

I rushed to Amelia's apartment my heart rate escalating with each step I took. Tears streamed down my face as I replayed the night's events.

That man... those icy blue eyes... the way he'd commanded Julian to release me.

I wiped away tears, taking a deep breath. My wolf and I were still shaken.

There was no denying it – he was an Alpha. His presence exuded dominance, power, and control. I'd never encountered anyone like him before.

Four years in this city, and I'd never met another wolf. It was as if I was the only one of my kind, hiding in plain sight.

But he... he was different.

As I climbed the stairs to Amelia's apartment, my mind whirled.

Who was he? What was his name? And why did he seem so familiar?

My mind ran with different thoughts as I marched to Amelia’s doorstep.

There is something about him, that I can’t seem to fathom. Just what is it?

I pushed open the door, and Amelia enveloped me in a warm hug.

"Nova, what's wrong?" she asked, concern etched on her face.

I collapsed onto her couch, tears flowing anew.

"I had a weird night at work," I began, recounting the events.

The thoughts of how Julian had grabbed me sent shivers running down my spine.

My wolf growled in displeasure.

Amelia listened intently, her expression darkening.

“What! How dare he” Ameli spat holding onto me.

“I don’t know, since I delivered their order he tried to force me to have a drink but the man stopped him,” I say recalling how his eyes burned within my soul.

"That sounds terrifying," she said. "But this guy who saved you... who is he?"

I shook my head.

"I don't know. But... somehow, those eyes seem oddly familiar, I just can’t point it, where I’d seen him before” I say letting out a breath.

Amelia paused for a second, “He’s old?”

“No. He should be around his mid-thirties” I correct.

“Yeah yeah, Icy blue eyes, nerve-racking physique, why do I feel like I know who you are talking about” Amelia says with a mischievous smile dangling on her lips.

My brows furrowed in confusion as I stared at her.

She pulled back getting up and picking up her phone from the table. “It has to be Alexandra Di Mario, New York's hottest billionaire. Rumors have it that he’s ruthless, powerful, and has zero relationship records” she informs as she types on her phone.

“Di Mario Corp is the same company I had applied for two weeks back,” I say breathing out disappointedly.

I had applied for a job interview hopefully and impatiently been hoping for feedback but to no avail.

“Yes. Here, is this him?” She asks handing the phone over to me.

My eyes widened as I came into view with the same cold eyes gulping down a lump, even his picture exuded dominance.

“Of course, it had to be him. Something tells me that he is gay” Amelia states making me suck in a harsh breath.

“What!?”

“Well I mean, judging by the fact that he hasn’t been spotted with a single woman for his 35 years of life, isn’t that alarming?”

I shrugged not liking the idea somehow, even though it’s none of my business but come on, I mean, all that(the looks) go to waste?

“I don’t know why he saved me from his friend tonight, but I have this gut feeling that there is more to it,” I say sincerely recalling how he had burned his stare into me.

“What? Like he picked an interest in you” She says wiggling her brows with mischief.

I smacked her shoulder earning a growl, “Of course not. I don’t hook up with older guys” I state.

She narrowed her stare at me, “It’s not like you’ve been with any other guy I’ve tried to set you up with, and Mss I am going to say single forever, Alexandra is hotter than men his age” she says offering a toothy grin.

“You’re mean”

She chuckles, “You and Alexandra—“

I cut her off before she could end her statement with a glare that had her hands flying up in defense.

“Don’t even think about it”

She burst into a fit of laughter getting up, “Wel I am just saying, c’mon girl, live a little”

God!

How did we even become friends again?

“I am going to warm leftovers of pizza I ordered earlier, want some?” she yells disappearing into the kitchen.

“Yes please” I yelled back heaving out a sigh as I leaned back on the couch resting my head.

It’s been a long unfaithful night.

As I shut my eyes, those cold blue eyes snapped back to my thoughts making my heart drop, my eyelids parting open.

Gosh!

What is the matter with me? I am not supposed to be having thoughts about a man who only saved me out of his kid's heart, even though it's away from his pervert of a friend, I mean for all I know they could be sailing the same ship.

But that’s not the point, the point is I am safe now or not.

A ding on my phone has me growling as I reach for it.

What now?

I unlocked the phone and the first mail that came into view was an email from Di Mario Corp.

Dear Mss Sanchez,

We are pleased to inform you that you have been selected for an interview with Di Mario Corp. We would like to invite you to come in for your interview tomorrow morning.

Please arrive at our office by 9:00 AM. If you have any questions or need further information, feel free to reach out.

We look forward to meeting you!

Best regards,

Di Mario Corp.

I screamed in excitement bolting up and rushing to the kitchen.

“What hell Nova!” She hiss in annoyance.

“I got selected for the interview! Oh my god, I can’t believe it!” I hand the phone to her in excitement.

And soon she joined me in celebrating.

Okay, maybe today hasn’t only been a bad day.

    Nova’s POV I quickly got ready, my mind racing with possibilities. This job could change everything for Lily and me. I don’t know why I had received that email but it was an opportunity that I couldn’t afford to lose. Downstairs, Lily chattered excitedly with Amelia as they made breakfast. "Mommy, can we go get ice cream after school?” I smiled, kneeling beside her. "Sweetie, Mommy has a job interview today. Amelia will take you to school, okay?" Lily's face fell, but she nodded. "Sorry, baby. I promise I'll make it up to you tonight." I hugged her tight, kissing her forehead. "Love you, kiddo." "Love you too, Mommy," she replied, waving goodbye. As I watched Amelia drive away with Lily, my anxiety spiked. Di Mario Corp's sleek skyscraper loomed before me, its glass facade glinting in the morning light. My heart shivered in fear. What if I messed up? What if I wasn't good enough? What if Alexandra sees that I am not fit enough and it was a mistake ever con

    Nova’s POV My first day at Di Mario Corp. I wanted to make a perfect impression. Before heading to the office, I stopped by a quaint cafe to grab Mr. Di Mario's morning coffee. "One large cappuccino, please. No sugar," I instructed the barista. I checked my watch for the fifth time. 8:45 AM. I was cutting it close. The barista handed me the steaming cup. "Here you go!" I rushed out, careful not to spill a drop. I woke up late today, I had a long movie night with Lily to make up for our ice cream date and I am regretting it now. If only I had gone to bed early, I wouldn’t be in a haste. As I entered the Di Mario Corp building, I bypassed the regular elevators and swiped my VIP access card. The doors slid open, revealing a sleek, mirrored interior. I stepped in, checking my watch again. 8:55 AM. Just as the doors closed, I felt a sudden jolt. The elevator stopped abruptly. The doors reopened, and I stumbled out. Right into Mr. Di Mario. Coffee sp

    Nova’s POV I scribbled my signature on the last document, relief washing over me. Finally, done. But exhaustion hit me like a ton of bricks. Mr. Di Mario's plans to make my life miserable for the past week had succeeded. Piles of work, endless meetings, and impossible deadlines. It felt like punishment for the coffee incident. Shouldn’t he be over that for god's sake! It's too much to handle for my poor soul. I have barely been spending time with Lily since I began my job here and I can tell how it is hard for her to adjust to my new schedule but I was doing this for us. And thanks to Amelia’s help, she’s been quite sporty by taking and picking Lily up from school. I rubbed my tired eyes. 8 PM. Time to call it a day. As I packed up, I noticed the lights on in Mr. Di Mario's office. I walked by carefully, avoiding being seen even though i know he could pick up my scent. Curse you Alpha. I can’t afford to have a load of work assigned to me yet again, not when

    Nova’s POV I pleaded with Mr. Di Mario, "Please, I'm fine on my own. I don't need your help or want to move in with you." I cried out. But he ignored me, grasping my arm and pulling me away from my apartment. "Let me go!" I demanded, trying to pull away. Tears welled up in my eyes. "Stop struggling, Nova," Mr. Di Mario ordered, his grip tightening. "I won't go anywhere with you!" I protested. I know that life was hard for me and us. Trying to make ends meet has never been an easy job. The housekeeper had sent me a warning a day back and I had pleaded with him to let me get my first salary, which I would pay off and we both agreed to that, I don’t know why he suddenly came to evict me. My heart ached. Thankfully Lilly isn’t here to witness this. Mr Di Mario dragged me toward the car snapping me out of my train of thoughts. "If you want your job, shut up and follow me," he growled. My voice trembled. "You can't do this." Mr. Di Mario opened the car door. "Get in

    Alexandra’s POV. I pounded the punching bag, sweat dripping from my brow. Nova's face haunted me - her innocent gaze, her plump lips, curvy shape. My fists struck harder, trying to expel the thoughts. But they only intensified. I desired her, lust burning within me. Nova was attractive in every way - intelligent, fierce, and beautiful. My wolf craved her, sensing the strength and resilience beneath her fragile exterior. "Why does she have to be so stubborn?" I thought. "Why does she have to be the one?" I punched the bag again, my wolf growling in frustration. The memory of Nova's tears, and her trembling voice, only fueled my anger. "Dammit," I muttered. I couldn't shake off the feeling. Nova had burrowed under my skin. And I couldn't deny it - I wanted her. Not just her body, but her heart, her soul. My fists slowed, my chest heaving. My wolf's primal instincts screamed: "Claim her." I couldn’t claim her. I believe I am only infatuated with

    Nova’s POV I closed my laptop, finishing work early for the first time in weeks. Since Mr. Di Mario flew out on his business trip, the office has been blissfully calm. No constant monitoring, no condescending remarks. Just peace. Living in his house has been uneventful and I am happy it stays that way. We both are avoiding each other. I make sure to leave the house before he’s ready for work and I come back before or sometimes after him. I just need to stay away from him, as though living with him is nothing short of torture but I am going to make sure it remains that way for as long as I can gather my salary and buy an apartment. And I got to leave early, which meant I had time to get ready for my date with Marcus tonight. I hadn't seen Marcus since I left my job at the bar. We've kept in touch, but life got busy. Tonight was going to be a catch-up session. I was excited to relive old times. Marcus was more than just a friend; he was my confidant. He is one

    Nova’s Pov As we pulled into the driveway, my anger simmered. Alexandra had ruined my perfect evening. Or rather saved me! But that’s not the point. I don’t even know when he got back, I thought he was not supposed to be back until next week. I have his every schedule penned down and even though it is none of his concern, I still felt like a thief caught in the act. My cheeks heat up in embarrassment at how he had pulled me away from my almost kiss with Marcus. "Thanks for interrupting my date," I spat, storming out of the car. Alexandra followed, his expression unreadable. "You embarrassed me, Alexandra," I fumed, striding into the house. "Embarrassed you?" he repeated. "Yes!” We entered the living room, and I whirled to face him. "You have no right to meddle in my personal life," I fired. "You're my boss, nothing more. I'll go out with whomever I wish." Alexandra's eyes narrowed his jawline hardening. He was furious and for a second I could swear I

    Alexandra’s POV I paced in front of my mother, frustration boiling within me. "You don't understand, Mother. Nova is my fated mate.” I still couldn’t wrap my head around being fated to an omega. My mother heaved a breath her expression unreadable, “You can’t consider being with an omega, not with your condition” she reasons. I don’t consider accepting Nova and at the same time won’t reject her. I desire her, I’ve not felt such a deep connection and ease for years as I feel with Nova. She’s too innocent for me. I’ll burn her. “The curse? You don’t get it mum, Nova calms the beast within me” Her eyes filled with worry, “An omega can never handle an Alpha, especially not with your…condition, you’ll consume her, destroy her. I won’t let that happen” "I won't hurt Nova," I protested, my voice rising. "She's different. She's strong, resilient—" "Strong?" Mother's laughter was laced with bitterness. "You've seen what happens when an alpha loses control. Nova won't be able to hand

I kept running my gaze around the wall clock here and there so as not to get too engrossed.My mind suddenly wandered to Nova. Her smile crept into my thoughts, and I couldn't help but smile too. God! That woman would be the end of me. She made me feel the way I have never felt before—so real and compassionate. With Nova, everything is different—her smile, her laugh, the way she turns me on and satisfies me. God, it made me want to have her all to myself, all the time.I was glad I'd told her I loved her.

Please leave," I said firmly, even though my emotions were beginning to get the better of me. But Bryan didn't budge. "I know about you and Uncle Alexandra," he said, his tone accusatory. My eyes narrowed. "What about us?" "It's impossible," Bryan said, shaking his head. "You can't be married to him. It's not possible." My anger flared. "And why should you care?" I spat.

We’re not going to get fired; may I need to remind you who the boss is?” He defends.I could feel his hardness rub at my stomach, and I didn't need to be told that he wanted to go for another round before we left for work, and I would be lying if I said I wasn't turned on too.I smiled mischievously, moving on top of him. He grunts as my wetness gets in contact with his hardness.He sat up gripping on my waist as I moved slowly, my breasts jiggling, liking the way he was admiring my physique with his eyes.He reached for a bud pushing on it, and my head fell back.“Ugnh… Since you are the boss, then we may as well have some,” I state, a sly smile dangling on my lips.“Fuck baby… Yes, you look so fucking beautiful,” he states, pulling me for a kiss.He bit on my lower lip, his grip on my waist tightening, moving me a little bit faster.Our tongues were at battle

I teased, knowing how much he gets turned on by that.His eyes flashed with adoration and lust. Without another word, he guided me further down to my knee, his hot palm igniting a hot trill.His zipper came down almost quickly, and he pulled himself free—thick, heavy, flushed with heat, already slick with pre-cum that glistened in the low light. His cock was hard and angry, the tip swollen and throbbing like it had a mind of its own. He wrapped a fist around his length, stroking it slowly, his other hand tangling in my hair to pull me closer. I could feel his heat and smell the raw, heady musk of him—a scent that crawled inside me and curled around my brain like smoke."Fuck princess…

I didn’t have a valid reason to avoid him, yet I felt bad, seeing the glint of sadness peak over his face.It was hard to ignore.I looked away, avoiding his gaze, but he held me back, cupping on my cheek."How do you feel about me, Alexandra?” I asked, wanting to ease the tension that was brewing within me.I was a step away from telling him how I felt about him. "What do you mean, Nova?” He asks.I remain mute, unsure of what to say or how to express my emotions without looking dumb.I hated being put in this sort of situation, but my feelings for Alexandra were intensifying day by day."How do you feel about me?

My brows furrowed in confusion and curiosity, wanting her to go on, and then I leaned in, ushering her to say, "Yes.” “He’s Gay" Oh, come on! Not her too. I fought the urge to break into fits of laughter, huffing a chuckle before leaning back. “Trust me, he’s not.” She narrows her eyes at me, “How would you know that?” I shrug, fighting the urge to tell her that I have his essence dripping down my pants after our heated session before the meeting. A blush crept, and I hurriedly walk away to avoid suspicions. “I work as his assistant; I'm basically around him all the time; if he has eyes on any person, I'd know that,” I explain, forcing a tight-lip
