Chapter 5

~Carsen~

I raked my hands down my hair as I watched her retreating figure. My teeth clenched as I remembered how delicate she was when I pinned her to the wall.

I was in my office doing some work when I inhaled her scent—that chocolate mint scent laced with a fresh woody smell. It was chaotic, and before I could even pinpoint a thing or two, Rowan took over and pinned her to the wall. His eyes glazed with so much possession that he didn't want to let go.

Her eyes were alluring and I knew she was checking me out, but what jerked me out of my reverie was the hidden human scent.

When I called her my Mate and the reaction she gave was proof that she had no idea what that meant.

Fuck!

I jerked back, but Rowan wanted to pull her closer to him.

I pushed him to the back of my mind and spoke rudely to her. First thing first, get her out of the office and then look for a way to get her out of this company. She can't work here, not when I know that every time I come her scent would be a distraction to me and my mate.

Selene did me dirty.

She gave me a human as my mate and she knows how much I hate those species.

Look at my mate for example, She's petite and she has a sharp mouth.

‘Pick this up and give it to Mr. Darren. This document is urgent, just arrange it and place it on the table,’ her words rang in my head.

See how rude she was.

She doesn't even know I'm the boss here and she tells me to pick them up. I looked at the documents lying on the floor. The door of my office opened and Logan walked in.

His eyes lit in confusion as he stared at the papers on the floor, “Sir, what happened?” He queried.

Of course, he could inhale the blurry scent of the human that came in here just now

But he doesn't know how intoxicating her scent is.

She wasn't his mate, after all she's mine.

“Pick up those papers, arrange them back and drop them on my table,” I ordered. He didn't ask any questions and did what he was told to do.

A sigh escaped from my lips when Logan walked out of the office. My eyes never left the door, the way she swayed her hips when she walked away, giving these sassy vibes.

That small mouth needs to be taught a lesson, she needs to make good use of that tiny mouth.

‘To suck my dick,’ That thought came into my brain and I could feel my dick twitch.

Dammit!

I need a very strong alcohol, something that could take my mind off her.

Just as I was about to call Logan to get the car ready, my phone rang. I pulled out my phone from my pocket, on the screen was Darren. His face popped up as soon as I clicked on receiving.

“Hey,” he said over the phone, grinning. I pulled on an aloof expression.

“Yes?” I raised my brow and then Sasha showed on the screen. My gaze landed on her bulgy tummy, which was already big. Her cheeks were bigger than before and it looked like she had gained more weight.

Just two days and see the wonder Darren had done to our beautiful Luna

“Hi, Sasha” I greeted and she sent me a warm smile.

“Hi Carsen, how's the city? Hope you aren't stressed?” She asked, of course, the mummy bear.

“I’m fine, Sasha, why are you getting so worried? You ought to take care of our soon-to-be Alpha,” I said, switching the conversation to be about her. I wouldn't want her to get worried sick about me when she's in this condition.

“Who says the child is going to be a male? I have an inkling this is a female,” she interjected with a frown on her lips.

Darren kissed her cheeks and then moved to the nape of her neck, I closed my eyes, tired of watching their PDA.

“It doesn't matter, bear, whether the child is a male or female. The child is going to take over the power after me, that is if the child wants it. I won't force our child if our child isn't interested,” he coaxed and she seemed to be content with his answer and then I heard them smooching.

“Okay, I think it's time for me to end the call so you guys can continue with your lovemaking,” I groaned, feeling very jealous that I can't even be with my mate.

It looked like Darren saw right through me,he muttered something in Sasha's ears, she muttered sorry and excused herself so we could talk.

“Now talk, Carsen, how's the city treating you?” He queried with a stern look.

What was I supposed to tell him, that ever since I got to the city I've been having sleepless nights? Their noises were getting to me and I had the urge to just snap a neck or two to fill my bloodlust and to top it all Selene decided to be cruel and sent my mate to me , who I later realized was a human.

I'd be grateful if she gave me a witch as my mate and not a human but then Selene is so unpredictable and cruel.

“Far worse than I'd imagined,” I grumbled.

“How is the business going?” He asked, getting straight to the point. I'm sure he doesn't want to delve deeper.

“We’ve been able to mellow things down. Give me three months. I'll be done with all the necessity then I'll be out of this company,” I muttered.

I just can't wait to get out of this place.

“Is there a way for me to sack someone working in your company even if he/she didn't do anything wrong? Or perhaps the person was rude to me?” I asked.

Darren didn't say anything, he just looked at me for a while. His brow raised up as if he was waiting for me to continue talking.

“Spill it Carsen, I know something is bothering you. Spill it, or you won't like me finding out whatever is bothering you?” He stated and I could hear the underlying threat underneath his tone.

This bastard!

He wanted to use the Alpha shite on me.

I closed my eyes and inhaled, “I found my mate—” I paused my words.

“And…”

“She’s human.”
