Marcie's POV

I had been in the storeroom for a while working my ass off. Everywhere was so dusty, and all the files, books, documents, and appliances were looking so unkempt and not in a good position.

I wondered where to start working from. The job that Mr. Carsen has given me did look like what two people could do alone, talk more of what a single person would do.

I had been trying my best to clean up the dust on the appliances, and I was already getting hungry and tired.

How could I be sent down here to suffer for no reason at all? I was trying to help him forget about what happened, but it seemed that anytime I tried helping him, he got angry.

I kept cleaning as fast as I could so that I could try my best to finish it before the end of the day, which I knew was impossible.

At some point, I had to take down a set of files, clean up the shelf, and then take them down to sit on the floor and clean them up.

The worst part of it all was that I was really lonely. No one was actually pas

    Carsen's POVI was having a drink outside while Rowan kept tormenting me and disturbing me.At this point, I regretted ever letting her into my car. Besides, she was looking very dirty and untidy."You mean after you had stressed her in the office, right? You were the one who made her untidy," Rowan said to me.I just wish I could shut him up because he was making it look as though I was evil and wicked to her.If I was actually the way he made it seem I was, I would not have driven back to pick her up.At some point, I decided to ignore him and focus on the drink I had in front of me. I tried distracting myself from hearing anything he was saying."You did not even bother to check if she reached home safely. What if she had slumped on the floor due to the stress you put her through?" Rowan kept disturbing me.With the words he said to me, I was actually worried about her because she was really tired from the look of things, and for her to sleep in the storeroom, the work was actually

    Marcie's POVAs I got into the bathroom, I was really emotional because I could not believe that I looked like a madwoman.He saw me looking so dirty and could not even let me know about it. He had to let me into his car so that I could feel embarrassed.For the little time I have spent with him, he would not let any stain or dirt on his car talk more of letting someone dirty into his car.For him to do that, he had it in mind to frustrate me, and that was the exact reason why he dropped me at the bus stop instead of taking me to my area.He actually wanted to disgrace me because he knew fully well that a lot of people would be at the bus stop and a lot of passengers would also be inside the bus.I quickly took my shower and put my clothes inside the washing machine. As I got to my room, I noticed that my phone was just stopping to ring.I checked my phone and realized that it was Carsen. I was so angry and wondered why he would be calling me, causing a lot of embarrassment for me.I

    Carsen's POVAs she was lamenting and saying her mind to me, I wanted to act as though I did not care, but seeing her shed tears really got to me.Her tears really hurt me, and all I could do was walk up to her and embrace her tight.I did not want her to speak further because every word she said to me was from her soul.She tried to pull away from me, but I did not want to let go of her. After all the struggle, she had to relax and keep crying on me.I could feel her tears on my chest as my clothes were already wet from her tears.I was really cold and did not know what to say to her. I let her cry all the pain out."Now that you have succeeded in making her shed tears, I hope you are satisfied by now," Rowan started questioning me.He did not understand that I felt hurt more than he thought he was.All he had in mind was to get mated and would use every opportunity to attack me for not marking her ever since I found her.I felt more relieved as her tone went down until she stopped s

    Marcie's POVAfter we broke the bond, he went ahead to tell me certain things that I would not try to do.I guess he was just saying it because he was in really tight corners. I cannot imagine myself telling him that he did something that I do not like to me.What if he was not saying it from his heart? He would just use it as an opportunity to oppress me more as he always did.He had always wanted to see me angry, but this time around, he acted differently, and I felt and saw in his eyes that he did not want to see me cry.After our conversation, he carried the papers of the interview along. According to his words, he did not want me to leave his company.I was on the verge of leaving his company, but seeing him in my house actually changed my mind.All I knew was that I would not yet conclude because I could not trust him fully.I have gone through a lot of things ever since I came into his company, and every single frustration I had was actually from him alone.As he took the paper

    Marcie's POV As we got to the location of the meeting, he then said a word.We had spent some time in his car without speaking to each other, and that got me sad and jealous at the same time.He might have found someone of his standard, or if he is married, which I am not sure of, he would have decided to go back and remain faithful to his wife."We are here now," he said to me as he tried to pack his car properly.The location was very large, and everyone I saw looked wealthy and high class.I started imagining what I would be doing there in the midst of all those CEOs."Am I going to wait for you in the car, or am I supposed to follow you there?" I had to ask him because I had no idea what was going on."All you just have to do is follow me," he replied. He was just being too professional to me, unlike the times we argued among ourselves as though we were kids.I was happy that he now knows the difference between an employee and a slave, but I was also sad that I would not get to t

    Carsen's POVI wanted to speak to her, but I did not know the exact words to use. I was really nervous as I drove her in my car.The memories of how I went back upstairs to meet her but still did not do what was in my mind kept flashing in my head.Her scent was also playing its own role in the car, but I had already started getting used to it, and I controlled myself anytime I was with her.As we got to the location, I had to inform her that we had arrived, although my heart kept skipping and beating really fast.I did not want to seem scared of talking to her, so I had to tell her to follow me as she started asking a lot of questions as usual.Getting there, there was a lot of crowd in the reception, and they were mostly pathetic humans.I did not want to have anything to do with them, so I went to a seat that was a bit separated from theirs.They have really done a lot of things to me that I can never forget about, and I do not see myself having anything to do with them.The only r

    Marcie's POVI did not know why Mr. Carsen was overreacting, but I had to keep quiet as I knew I had done nothing wrong.I should be the one to get angry because he embarrassed me in front of a stranger.I was no longer a small kid, so I do not see any reason why he should stop me from talking to people, whether during working hours or not.Besides, I could interact with my colleagues during working hours as he had termed it, so I did not see it as an offense even if he was right.After I refused to tell him who the man was to me, he kept a long face and did not say a word to me.All through the ride, it was as silent as the first time we came. I did not bother to say a word to him as well because he embarrassed me in front of people.As soon as we got to the office, I came down from his car immediately and started going inside the building.I greeted my colleagues who were asking after. They were already thinking that I was his new personal assistant due to the way I always worked fo

    Carsen's POVI was really pissed with Emily for interacting with another man and also acting rude to me when I confronted her.I guess the punishment is to teach her a lesson not to be ever rude to me and also to respond to my questions.She kept my hopes high as I wanted to know exactly who the guy was to her."Why do you keep treating our mate in such a wicked manner?" Rowan asked.He would always want to make me look like the bad one in everything. She was always wrong, but Rowan kept supporting her because he wanted to be mated as soon as possible.I had to remind him of what his mate did that made me punish her.It was the first time in a very long time that Rowan supported me.It was only because I told him that our mate was talking to someone else and we both are not aware of what they discussed.Rowan became angry with her and then he supported me for a little while.I believed that if I punished her, she would learn a lesson and avoid having anything to do with men.I sat dow

    Marcie's POV I was doing my best to explain things to him, but he refused to listen. Instead, he yelled demeaning things to me, prompting me to slap his face. He dared me again to see what I would do, and I lifted my hand to slap him again, but this time he seized my hands in the air. As he did this, he placed my hands behind my back but above my head, causing me to lean against the door. I was still dissatisfied with the first slap I gave him, and I want to give him another so that the next time he learns etiquette.I lifted my free hand to slap him for the second time, and he caught it as well, performing the same thing he had done with the first. I was now pressed to the wall, gazing into his eyes and asking what he wanted to do. "What is going to make you keep quiet for some time?" he asked me as he kissed my lips. I felt excitement run throughout my body, and I wanted more of him and his kisses. He raised his eyes to gaze at me, but I froze, gazing into his so

    Stephen's POV In the city as a whole, my company, my business, and my brand were the biggest and one of the most respected brands we have in town.I struggle to maintain the name of my company and have received a lot of awards in the name of my company as well. The only competitor I had was Darren, a CEO of a company who was also big but not as big as mine.He was coming up, but he was not really a threat to me. I always knew that anytime he came up with an idea to step up his game, I would also step up mine immediately. It dawned on him that I was the biggest, and I had no competitor at all. I had struggled for a very long time to keep my company where it is, and I would not let it fall no matter what came around. A board meeting was scheduled for different CEOs across this city and also some outside the city. It was a big game, and it was actually a time for me to prove that my company was the biggest in and out of the city.During the board meeting I was given a lot of re

    Carsen's POV After I had called her on the phone and made sure she was inside, I decided to go see the manager of the hotel. I needed that to run some business with him, and he was the perfect partner for that. He had everything I needed and wanted in a partner, so I felt it was best for me to partner with him. That was another reason why I chose his hotel for the meeting, which I told Emily that we would be attending, and to my advantage, there was a meeting scheduled. As I got to his suite, I met him relaxing and reading a magazine. I went ahead to make him know that I was present there, and so he kept doing what he was doing to give me the full attention that I needed. "Hello Mr. Carsen, it is nice seeing you today. How are you doing? I hope you are well. I heard you logged into our hotel, and I'm so happy to have you here," he said to me. "Thank you, Mr. Kelvin. I am also happy to see you, and I want to tell you that your workers are doing a great job, and you have the best

    Marcie's POV I was in my room trying to arrange my things and unpack my bag when I heard a knock on my door. I already knew that it was Carsen because it was just the both of us in the apartment. I left what I was doing and went to answer him. As I got there, he began asking me if there was anything I needed. "Emily, I just came to know if you are okay and comfortable with the environment. Do you need anything to eat, or do you want anything at all?" he said to me. It was obvious that he was aware that I was not really happy, and I think he came to make it up to me in his own way. One thing about him was that he never apologized to me even though he was the one at fault. The highest thing he does is to look for a way to cover up his sins. "I am okay, as you can see. I have already eaten before coming here, and I do not think I need anything at the moment," I said to him. "Alright, Emily, I was just asking because I will be going out to attend to something. In case you need an

    Treasure's POV I had my men go hunting in search of these pathetic creatures because I needed to prove a point to Mr. Vaughn Alexander Sterling and not only that, also because I was back in full force to make them pay for what they have done to me, to my family, and to all humans at large.I needed their whole traces wiped off if possible, and I needed them far away from human beings.They were all wild animals, and the city is not for wild animals, talk less of the village. Their home remains the jungle, where they can meet with their fellow wild animals and not the city.Another thing that got me thinking was how they could transform into human form and also transform back to their real form. It seemed as if they were making use of African voodoo, but whatever it was, I would find out one way or the other. The only thing I needed was a large number of them in my custody. If possible, all of them as a whole.I had not yet started going out personally, not because I had peop

    Carsen's POV As I was driving around, I decided to go see my people because I knew that I would have to spend some time with Emily.I needed to figure out what happened about the dismissal of the old wolf who was missing.As I got to the headquarters, I had them call Bruno for me because he was the only one I was familiar with."Please call him really quickly. I have a lot of things to attend to," I said to them, and waited in front of the headquarters.As I was waiting for him, I watched the little children play around and also watched how everyone lived so peacefully, unlike humans who will always create scenes out of nothing."Good morning, sir," I heard the voice of Bruno greeting me from behind.I turned around, and there I saw him, and we both exchanged pleasantries."Alright, Bruno, I have a lot of things to do right now, but I decided to come here to know exactly the state of everything. Last night, you told me that an old wolf was missing, right?" I said to him,"Yes sir

    Marcie's POV I waited for him after I had finished with my morning preparations. I did not hear anything from him after the last time we spoke. I wondered if he had forgotten that we had meetings to attend or if he had changed his mind about me going with him. If it was that he decided to go alone, he should have at least called to inform me rather than keeping me uninformed. All I did was pack up everything I needed and also dress up to go with him. I did not want to call him on the phone because if what he was going to say was so much more important to him, he could have called me. I was already bored, so I decided to check out the things I had packed earlier. I added some new things and removed some as well. I went into my room, and then I heard my phone ringing. I knew it would be no other person than him. I picked up the call, and then he told me to take the day off because he would be coming to pick me up later in the day. Maybe I did not hear him clearly the last ti

    Carsen's POV As I was driving, I decided to call Darren to tell him about everything that had happened.I found it really necessary to inform him about our little hunt for our hunters."Hello Carsen, what's up with you?" he said to me as he picked up the call immediately."I am okay, Darren. How are you doing? How is the pack, and how is our beautiful pregnant mate?" I responded to him.I was playing along even though I knew that he probably was expecting me to go straight to the point as usual."Your response seems a bit different, but by the way, everything is okay over here. I got a message that you guys caught some werewolf hunters," he said to me. It was obvious that he could have called to know what was happening, as he had already gotten the information from elsewhere.It was a good thing that I called him because he was fond of calling me at the wrong time."Actually, you got some wrong information about that; we caught one and not some," I responded to him.He was cu

    Carsen's POV His hesitation made me talk about a decision that I was sure would make him talk fast. I had no time to hear all he was saying and to receive insults from him.I patiently waited for Bruno to get me these garden shears so that I could make him feel the pain of his life as he and his fellow werewolf hunters had decided to make it hard on us.Yes, we are not the same species, but that does not degrade us in any way, nor does it stop us from living out our lives in happiness.Besides, the city is for no one in particular and if they had decided to mind their business and stop poke nosing into people's personal lives, they would not have discovered anything at all."Tell me what you want to use it for; you cannot tell me that you are demanding a pair of shears and have nothing in mind to do with it," he kept lamenting while I waited for it to arrive."As I told you earlier, when it arrives, then we will bother to get to know what it should be used for.
