***Clair's POV***“Miss Clair, he's here.”I quickly stood up, waiting to meet him. As soon as the door flew open, he walked in gently. “Welcome, Mr. Rojas, it's nice to see you again. “It's nice to see you, too, Clair. Are you okay with me calling you that, with the honorifics?“Of course. It improves our work that way.”“Ah! I like what you just said.”We quickly went through the agenda for the new product launch, which will be taking place the upper week. Since Rojas is now part of the company, and he's new, it was only right that I have a quick conversation with him about the work. This way, things will be seamless. It took us two hours to finally come to a decision about how the launching should be. Just as we were about to wrap up for the day, I suddenly heard the voice of my secretary outside the office. I wish I understood what was actually happening. “Do you think there's something wrong outside?”“I think so. I apologize for this, I'll go check out what it is immediatel
***Clair's POV***“Clair, I understand that you've actually never had a proper date way before now, but then you need to know this. It takes less than a second for anyone to fall in love. Especially when it's love at first glance. What Alpha Rojas must have felt for you was love at first glance.”“What are you talking about? Alpha Rojas doesn't feel that way about me?”“Why do you think so? Everyone could tell that he had something for you. According to what the people at your company said. The way he looked at you when you both were walking was just everything. Not just that, Alpha Rojas is known to be a man who actually isn't concerned about how others see him. He has no appetite for women.”“Since he has no appetite for women, why are you making it sound like I had suddenly become the woman who aroused his appetite?”“Because you are my darling. You just don't have eyes to see. Everyone talks about you in the pack. Now, I'm not surprised why Diane got so mad. But she was mad at the
**Alpha Cannon's POV***I sat in my office chair all day, tending to some project work at hand. Even while I was doing this, I couldn't help but think about the coming of Alpha Damian. I mean, we will be having a business relationship in the near future, but I think I was too fast to tell him everything that happened in my pack. If it were to be someone else, I'm sure I wouldn't have said a word, but with him, I couldn't seem to just overlook things. I felt like he deserved to know everything that happened to me. I just can't shake off the questions of Alpha Damian. If I didn't know better, I would have said that he was a private detective who came to interview me about everything that was going on in my pack. Helplessly, I explained every detail of what happened in my pack. My goodness! Since when did I become that close with Alpha Damian that I had to tell him the secret in my pack?”But then, come to think of it, he's not, actually someone I should be worrying about. He has prov
***Alpha Cannon's POV***I quickly rushed into my car and headed to the destination Andrew had earlier told me about. While on my way, I quickly called Andrew a second time. “Andrew, you must not let her leave. Tell her I'll pay for every time wasted. Do you understand me?”“Of course, Alpha, I'm patiently waiting for you.”The reason I had to head there was to see this photo myself. I wanted to confirm whether truly what Andrew said was true or not. If it was actually true, then…I trailed off as I was in a terrible state. I've become so anxious that I barely don't know what to do with myself.I arrived at the said place in an hour's time. Thankfully, as soon as Andrew saw my car, he rushed towards me. “Would you like to see the photos?”“Tell her to come in. I would like to see the photos and have a conversation with her.”“Alright,” Andrew quickly got out of the car to send for the lady in question while I waited patiently in my car. Some minutes later, the girl in question s
**Clair's POV***Ever since the incident with Alpha Rojas and the lady named Clair, Alpha Damian had instructed somebody to guard outside my office. This way, they'll be able to handle whoever dares to intrude. As usual, Alpha Rojas and I were planning for the launching of my new lipstick. This was important to me, and the fact that the Alpha was willing to sponsor as compensation for what happened that day was actually soothing. Since I couldn't stop him from wanting to help me, then I can as well accept his help with open arms. “Thank you so much, Mr. Rojas, for all your support so far.”“Oh you don't actually need to thank me at all. I did what I did with my whole heart. And we are business partners, so of course it is only right that I render my support.”I simply smiled at him. Feeling so delighted. “Once again, I want to apologize for all that happened that day with Diane. I'm well aware of the embarrassment you felt. I promise such a thing will never happen again.”“You don
***Alpha Cannon's POV***I sat in my car outside the restaurant, watching my mate have lunch together with another man. I watched them from my car as they both share a glances, laughing at some point, a look of sadness at other moments. How could this be? Did I arrive too late? When I finally located her office, I was so glad that the only thing I thought about at that moment was to walk into the company and ask about her with the card in my hand. It would be easy for me to get her attention since I was in possession of her business card. Everything was all planned out and going well, until I suddenly caught sight of her, coming out from an office with a guy. Immediately, I stepped back and quickly hid in a corner to see what was happening. Though I could tell that she, for some reason, sensed my presence, or so I thought, due to how she stood frozen and turned around. I quickly pulled away so she wouldn't set eyes on me. After some seconds, I took another peek and noticed she was
***Clair's POV***Teresa, who was surprised by what I said, slowly walked away from their bed. “Are they asleep now?”I whispered. Teresa gestured for me to keep shut and pulled me out of the room with her. After she successfully shut the door, she quickly turned around to face me. “Did I just hear you right? How dare you call yourself a bad mom. Just why would you say such about yourself?”"Today, I promised that I was going to close early from the office and be there to tell them a bedtime story. I was the one who gave the promise and still the one who failed to keep to my promise. Aren't I pathetic?"“You don't sympathize with yourself at all, do you. If I were to be in your shoes with all this work in place, I'm sure I would have passed out since a long time ago.”“Still, that doesn't justify the fact that I don't really have time for my kids.”“You don't have their time now because you're a busy mom. You have no idea just how strong you are, do you? It's not an easy fit, tryin
***Clair's POV***Finally, it was the day of the launching program. While Ramona was helping me fix my makeup, I couldn't help just how nervous I was feeling at that moment. Goddess help me. This wasn't the first time I was launching a product. “Miss Clair, you're feeling nervous again,” Ramona said as she examined me through the mirror. “Yes I am. I don't understand why I have to feel this way.”“It's not like it's the first time, though. What I mean is, in every product launch, you're always nervous. I think it's a good thing because you put in all your effort, and you wanted it to come out excellent.”“My goodness, how did you know that, Ramona?”Ramona is such a nice girl that I truly hoped that she'll be mated to an Alpha or a Beta at least. This is because she had the attributes that a Luna should have. This is why I'm sure she'll do such a fine job if she were ever to become a Luna, because she has all what it takes to be one. “Thank you, Ramona, you will always have a speci
**Clair's POV**# A Month LaterMy sex life with Cannon only got better. I can't even begin to describe just how loving Cannon had proven to be. If I ever were to be told that things would actually turn out this way for me, I never would have believed it. I mean, how did I fall this deeply?I looked in the mirror and heaved a long, deep sigh. Since my dad had found in out about Cannon and me, I had expected him to scold me or Cannon, but he rather said he already knew about what happened and there's no way he's blaming Cannon who unknowingly made me suffer or me who kept the secret about Cannon being the father of my kids. Things didn't end there, Cannon also proposed a marriage to me through my dad. Since Alpha Damian was my dad, he made him understand that he wanted his mate back. At this point, I can't deny the fact that I was head over heels in love with Cannon. But at the same time, I just don't want to let Alpha Damian feel that I'm abandoning him. Though he might not say it,
**Clair's POV ** I woke up only to realize just how free I felt. I felt so much relief that I opened my eyes and looked at my environment. To my greatest shock, I wasn't in my room. Where is this place? Gradually, it became clearer to me that I wasn't in my bed. I slowly stood up from the bed, only for me to realize that I was in Cannon's bed. At the same time, the thought of what happened before now came, clouding my memories. When I realized what a slut I had been last night, I let but a shocked gasp and shook my head. It must have been crazy for me to act that way. What the hell was wrong with me? Shit! I wonder what Cannon must have thought of me. But then, thinking about the hot sex we had instantly made my core burn. I had always thought the sex we had the first day was the best, but I just realized that it was the sex I had now that was mind-blowing. I bit my lower lips just thinking about how he licked and sucked me. Not only that, I can't help but think about how he
**Alpha Cannon's POV*** When she begged me to take her, I felt like the moon goddess had just answered my dying prayers. Without waiting a second more, I jumped on her. She looked startled when she saw this. “Hey baby, you have absolutely nothing to worry about. I'll make you feel better than you've ever felt. Do you trust me?” Though she didn't say a word, I could see in her eyes that she trusts me. That was all I needed from her before I spread her legs apart. She looked into my eyes and swallowed hard. Her innocent eyes bare holes into my very soul. She looked like she was going to have it for the very first time. But of course. I can vouch that she's never had anyone asides me in her entire life. The first night we spent together can't be counted as one, since what happened between us was more like a contract of love making. None of us invested our heart and soul into it, since we had no idea that we were doing it with ourselves. “Clair, I want you to know that you're
**Clair's POV** I had said I was going to control myself, but I found myself moaning out loud helplessly. Cannon ate me like his life depended on it, while I moaned with every contact his flesh made with my folds. “Aaaa,” I moaned out as he peeled me further open and lavishly rubbed his tongue at the center of my folds and then, he began to pick at my folds with his lips. I rolled my eyes to the back of my head. I couldn't contain myself as he continued to eat me with a careless abandon. I thrashed my head from side to side and bit my bottom lips, trying to suppress my moans. The more I tried to hold back, the more pressure he applied on my center. “Aaaa…gently please!” I cried out, but he just wasn't going to listen to my plea. My moans only charged him up and made him devour my center. As he continued to devour my center, it got to a point I began to feel pleasure and pressure in the pit of my stomach. No doubt I discovered that I was about to climax, and so I held on t
**Clair's POV **“My goodness!”I exclaimed as I quickly turned around to face him. It was indeed him. He looked not at my face but at my chest with a slightly dark gaze. This made me take my gaze downwards to my chest, only for me to realize that the robe had slid down my chest and my boots were now exposed. Shit! I quickly reached for the robe to cover myself. I was shocked when Cannon suddenly covered the distance between us in one swift move and held my hands in place. “What are you doing?” He asked, staring at me with a confused expression. “What do you think? I'm trying to cover up,” I said between my teeth. “Why would you want to cover up in front of me? Have you forgotten our agreement? Is this how you intend to please me, perhaps?”The moment he said the words, I opened my mouth wide in utter shock. Why did I not think about what I had said before now? “I…" I trailed off, not knowing what to say to him. Just at that very moment, I took my gaze downwards, only to that,
**Clair's POV**I stood in front of the water bath. I still can't believe what I'm about to do. How did I get this far? “Ma'am, on earth you're done, please let me know.”I took my gaze toward the direction of the lady who stood at the entrance of Cannon's bathroom door. “You don't have to watch me. I'll be very much okay on my own.”Alright, Ma'am,” the lady said with a smile before exiting the bathroom. I shut my eyes and took a deep breath the moment she was out of the room. I can't even begin to describe what all this was. All I knew was that I'm feeling so awkward. This is just like the first day I had sex with Cannon for the first time. I remembered that back also soaked a warm bath. The only difference was that Roxanne watched the whole process of my bath. Unlike now, where I wasn't under anyone's supervision. No matter how normal I'm trying to feel, it still doesn't change the fact that I'm giving myself out to Cannon in exchange for the cancellation of a battle. I can
**Alpha Cannon's POV **I paced from one end of my office to the next. I was worried sick about what I had said earlier. “Alpha Cannon, you shouldn't stop pacing for crying out loud. I'm beginning to feel extremely dizzy right now, you know. Please, calm down and let me think.”“No, you don't understand, Andrew. You know for a fact that Clair isn't someone who will back down from something like this.”“My goodness! This is why you never should have said that to her. What are we going to do now if she comes up with something else.”“That's the problem.”I'm afraid that Clair might have something else going on in her head. Whenever she leaves angry, what she comes back with is always shocking. When she left after I asked her to stay here in the pack with me, she shocked me out of my wits when she rather came back with Alpha Rojas. While I was contemplating on what to do, I suddenly heard a knock on my office door. I took my gaze towards Andrew, who equally stared at me in shock. My
**Clair's POV **“A condition?”“Yes, a condition. Are you ready to hear it?”“Well, why don't you bring it on,” I stated, prepared to hear what he had to say. Just then, he slowly walked over to where I stood. Judging from his slightly dark expression, I was having the thought that I might not actually like what he was about to say to me. Just as he got close to where I stood, he suddenly stretched out his hands towards me. I tried to move backwards a bit before I could do that. He grabbed a hold of my waist and pulled me towards him.“What do you think you are doing?”I asked, breathing heavily. This action of his has tuned my wolf into disarray. Why was he suddenly doing this? Does he have any idea how badly what he was doing affected me?“I don't know why I'm the only one with this feeling. This is unfair. You're my mate, and you should at least feel a little passion for me, just as I feel for you. How can I be the only one to suffer for this? It's so unfair,” he whispered as he
**Clair's POV ***I looked up at Rojas, I felt terribly bad for what I was about to say, since I was the one who moved the motion from the very beginning. “Rojas, I'm sure you'll be wondering why I came to you and not saying anything for a while now. That's because I still don't know how to start talking about what's on my mind.”“What could you have had in mind? You know you can always talk to me, and I'll hear you out.”“Well, the thing is, I want to put a stop to the fight about getting back my kids.”“What? Why would you stop? Don't you wish to get back your kids anymore?”“Of ourselves I do, but then after a second thought, I realized that I actually can't fight him for the kids no more what I do. It's obvious that he's only willing to let go, and I'm not going to fight about this as well.”“My goodness, Clair, do you realize that you have just succumbed to him? Is that what you want?”“Believe me, that's not what I want, but the situation is far more complicated than I thought.
