***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
***Alpha Cannon's POV***Good thing I was able to trace the place. I had thought I wouldn't be able to find it, since I'm not used to this part of the country. Standing in front of the building where the new product launching will be carried out, I was amazed when I saw her name boldly written on the billboard. There was no picture of her, though, and I understood this was her choice. She must have wanted to hide away from me that badly. Seeing the crowd still trooping into the hall, it seems I'm not the only late one here. I quickly walked into the main hall and damn, the crowd wasn't what I had expected. From where I stood, I folded my arms on my chest and watched my mate, looking all glowing and beautiful in her long pink dress. I've never seen Clair dress up this way before and seeing her right now, I can't help but imagine her being my Luna and leading the pack with me. If only that was as simple as I was thinking. I quickly shook my head, dusting the thoughts out of my head.
