Marcie's POV

As I entered the house, I was really shocked at his attitude, but I had to avoid thinking about it.

I did not want to ruin my mood, so I waved it all aside.

I was still excited that I anchored the meeting very well regardless of not being informed in time.

I decided to call my friend and inform her about what happened and how he made me anchor a board meeting.

"Hello, Emily Martin," she mockingly called me.

It was not the first time she called me by my full name, but I knew where to get her from. I always teased her with Tom, her boyfriend.

As we both exchanged greetings, I then went straight to the point of why I called her.

She was eager to hear what I had to say since it was about Mr. Carsen and me.

"Could you believe that he made me anchor one of the meetings that was held today?" I said to her,

    Carsen's POV As we got to a restaurant, I asked Emily to wait for me in the car while I went in to see how things were being done there.When I got there, it was crowded with a lot of people everywhere. The smell of the humans was too much, and I did not want to be in such an environment.I knew that staying with them and watching their annoying behaviors could make me want to deal with them. I asked a staff member to take me to the manager of the restaurant as I wanted to discuss it with him."Sir, I hope all is well. If there is any problem, you do not have to go to the manager personally. We could handle the situation as well"; she probably thought that I had an issue with someone."Actually, I need to discuss it with him. But everything is fine, and you do not have anything to worry about." I made her understand that I was okay. I actually wanted to speak to the manager personally so that he could help me get rid of all these humans everywhere.The staff might have bee

    Marcie's POVAs I followed him into the restaurant, everywhere was clear, and the waitresses there attended to us really well.I wondered why he sent everyone away from the restaurant so that we could eat alone.I did not want to reason it too much, so I had to put all my focus on the meals that the waitresses were bringing.I noticed that the food he requested was too much, so I told him that I would not be able to finish all the food alone.He insisted that I eat the food, and then he stared at me as I was eating.I was not comfortable with the way he was looking at me. I felt like telling him that he was looking too much.I almost could not hold my spoon properly again, and then he started asking me if I was scared of him.That question really got me angry because I did not see any reason why he should be staring at me in that manner and still expect me to be comfortable.I had to reply to him harshly to prove to him that I was not scared of him at all. He laughed like a psychopath

There I stayed, shedding tears, thinking of what I had done to myself.Was it that he was joking with my feelings because I had realized that I actually had something for him in there?I kept thinking why he always acted weird anytime he treated me right.

I was on the verge of marking her, so I had to send her away.As she left disappointed, I did not know what to do; all I was doing was trying to protect her from myself.I sat down thinking of what I could have done and also trying to convince myself that I was not too harsh to her.I did not want to hurt her feelings on purpose; all I did was protect her.

    Marcie's POVI did not care about what people had to say about me. Everyone passing around looked at me as though I was putting on the wrong side of a cloth.All I needed at that moment was to clear my head and forget about the pains and stress Carsen has been putting me through.I ordered drinks and kept drinking as I found a bit of happiness with them.Two guys walked up to me, but I was uninterested in what they said. I was there for a reason and nothing else."Hey pretty lady, do you mind if we sit down with you?" one of the guys said to me.I was not in the mood to talk, so I shook my head in disagreement. He kept persuading me, and his friend was busy smiling at me."Could you guys leave me alone? I am not interested in what you have to say, and I do not want to sit with you," I responded to them."Hey ma'am, I hope all is okay over there," the owner of the bar asked as he was coming over to where I was seated.I did not want to embarrass the guys around me, nor did I want to be

I had to sit up to regain my strength and know exactly what was wrong with me.I saw a piece of paper on the dresser that was close to the bed; I decided to pick it up.There was a write-up on it, and it was from Mr. Carsen. It read, "I know you are awake now; before coming out, make sure you take the hangover drugs here so that you can feel a lot better.".I smiled all through as I read the message he left for me. He was such a sweet soul and can also be the worst demon as well.I loved the cool part of him and hoped that he could remain that way forever.
