*****Alpha Cain's POV****I have been working late in my office ever since that day. I needed to draft a good proposal for Alpha Ryan. The last project we did together was a success. As the goddess would have it. We stumbled on each other once again. This time I plan to seize the opportunity presented to me. I'm not letting go of anything in the world.I took a glance at the time as it was almost done. It was 9: PM. I guess this was perfect timing. All I need to do is tie up loosed ends and call it a night. Suddenly, I heard a sharp knock on the door. I creased my brow because I surely wasn't expecting anyone at that time. Fox had been busy with pack matters that we barely ever met. My gamma and delta are also busy carrying out other businesses, so I don't see any reason why anyone would come to my office at this time. Another knock on the door snapped me from my thoughts.“Yes, come in,” I replied. I took my face back to my work, and just then, the door slowly cracked open fro
******Alpha Cain's POV********An Hour Later****“Alpha Cain, I want you to be as honest as you can be with me. Do you not find your Luna attractive?”“She's a beautiful woman and I guess many men will want her.”“We are not talking about many men now, are we?”I took a steady glance at Ariana. Though I hardly ever come by, Ariana is someone who I could really rely on. She's trusted by almost everyone in the pack and very loyal to me. “Can I be honest with you, Ariana?”“You know you can always be, my Alpha.”“Well, the thing is, the Luna is, indeed, charming, but for some reason, I don't seem to want her.”“Strange. If she's your mate, why wouldn't you want her? Everyone wants their mate, Alpha Cain. Does your wolf reject her too?”“My wolf doesn't react to her. It's more like my wolf is scared to touch her.”“Alpha Cain, this is the first time I've heard of such. There's no way you are not feeling the mate bond unless she's not your mate. But then, even if she's not your mate, you
*****Diane's POV****“Arrrgh!” I thrashed my dressing mirror, hitting and throwing away every object I found around me. I was about to go insane. My head hurts, my heart hurts, my prestige hurts. Everything about me hurts at this very moment.I've been trying to shoulder the shame and disrespect I get from the members of the pack, but it seemed that still wasn't enough. It still wasn't enough for Cain to right the wrongs.“Arrgh!!” I yelled and continued thrashing everything in my room. My hands bled since I had hit the mirror with if. But I don't care what happens to my hands, my room or what the others who are probably hearing my outburst now care about. I'm simply enraged and passing out my aggression towards things in my room.“Luna, are you okay?” The Omega serving me asked from the outside.“Shut the fuck up and leave!” I yelled at her and rather continued with what I was doing. At this moment, I don't care what others think about me. I only know that I was fast losing my place
Working in Alpha Ryan's office gave me a sense of what it means to be fully independent and do something meaningful in my life. Unlike that goddess forsaken Pack where all I did was clean, cook and get punished for what I didn't do at all because of an over-jealous sister who did nothing but try to boss people around.I'm glad I said yes to walking with Aloha Ryan. I wonder how I would have lived my life. Possibly, I wouldn't have known what I was actually missing not working with him.“Miss, Rachel, I do have some documents to give to Alpha Ryan, but I heard he's in a meeting now with an important guest. Can you please help me with the submission when he's back?”“Sure, I can,” I replied with an enthusiastic smile. I had just arrived from scheduling a meeting with a client who would help us with setting up a new billboard for our businesses. Alpha Ryan had earlier told me that he would be welcoming a new visitor, but I have no idea who this visitor is or how long this visitor wi
******Gina's POV****While waiting for Alpha Ryan, I decided to work on a personal project given to me. Just as I was doing so, the door to the office suddenly flew open and Alpha Ryan walked in at once. “Alpha Ryan, welcome back. Were you able to agree on a new project?”“How did you know that was a project?” He asked curiously. “Well, that's because, generally, you never go to the meeting hall unless it's for something really important. But since you went to the hall today, and you earlier told me an important guest was coming, all I had to do was figure things out.”“Would you like to know who this important guest was? I mean, you will be quite shocked to know."I raised a brow, wondering what Alpha Ryan was trying to say. "A guest I will be quite shocked about? Now I'm curious to know who it is, because I really can't guess who it is.""Well, this guest is none other than Alpha Cain."At the mention of Alpha Cain, I instantly paused from what I was doing that very instant. "A.
*****Alpha Cain's POV****“Alpha Cain, don't you think that we are quite early? I mean, we should be the ones coming late since we made the proposal.”“I have my reasons,” I said to my gamma. Of course, I have my reasons, and it's clearly because I wanted to see her. I need to see her from the window as she walks into the building. I don't want to miss her for one minute.A few minutes later, a black Range Rover pulled into the company's building. I have the hunch that Diane was in the car. And just as I had thought, she came down from the car, putting on a beautiful short yellow dress. I clenched my jaw just seeing how exposed her well - curved legs looked like. I can't deny the fact that I was jealous of Alpha Ryan at that moment. I don't know what kind of relationship they have going, but seeing her come down from his car wearing such a provocative dress made me want to rush down and hold her tight by the waist and take her with me. She's everything I wanted. Goodness! Even my er
*****Gina's POV****Just as he grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him, I landed on his chest and my pink lipstick got imprinted on his collar. Not just that, the minty scent of his breath mixed with his aftershave and Cologne mixed made my wolf suddenly go weak on the knees. He wrapped his hands around my waist and peered down at me just as I looked up at him. I could see his gaze boring holes in my face and in my eyes. There's this tingling feeling I felt around him. At the same time, my heart was beating so fast that I thought it was going to pop out of my chest. He didn't say a word, but slowly shifted his gaze down to my lips. I froze at that very instant. I was having the feeling of what he might have in mind to do, but then I couldn't move away from him even if I knew. It was as if a force were holding me hostage in his arms. Just then, he began to descend slowly, with his gaze solely on my lips. At the rate things were going, I knew I wouldn't be able to resist him. And
*****Alpha Cain's POV***The days seemed to be getting longer. I don't know what I would do with myself at this rate. I want to see her. I wish to talk to her. I would like to feel her. Am I slowly going nuts this way? Was this because I'm starved? At that moment, I didn't think I cared for anything else. I only want one thing right now, and it is her. I desire her. I need to see her, I need to talk to her. Not doing that for the past one week made it impossible for me to contain myself. It was as if my air support were being cut short. I could hardly breathe. I want to breathe every air she breathes. I want to see her in front of me. At this moment, I don't even want to know what my wolf wants, but my desires are clearly mine as far as I can tell. A swift knock on the door got me raising my gaze to the door. “Alpha Cain?”“Yes, Rachel, have you delivered my message?” I asked impatiently. “Yes, I have Alpha.”“So… what was the response?” I asked. “Well, I got a reply that Miss R
