Carsen's POV"Bruno, as I said, you all should be on your guard. I will be going to attend something real quick, but I will be back before the rain begins because I also want to witness whatever would happen," I said to him, and then I went into my car and started driving to the hotel.As I got to our apartment in the hotel, I did not see Emily in the sitting room, and she should probably be in her room.I decided to go into my own room first of all before going to knock on her room's door.I knocked the first time, and there was no movement, and then I knocked the second time. It was obvious that she was asleep, so I decided to leave, but as I was going, she came to answer the door, so I stood there."Oh, it is you," she said as she saw me in front of her door."Yes, it's me. I came to check up on you to know if you are okay. Do you need anything at all?" I asked her."No, I do not need anything for now. I am fine, and if I need anything, I get to order it as you said, right?" she sa
Marcie's POV Carsen asked me to stick beside him and to avoid talking to anyone at all, and I did exactly as he had told me, starting from when we were going down the stairs in the hotel.I did not know that he was that popular to the extent of workers in the hotel coming to greet him one after the other."Hello Mr. Carsen, good morning," a guy walked up to him and greeted him, also having a handshake with him. He greeted the guy wholeheartedly and also discussed some things that I did not hear clearly, but as soon as the young man started involving me in the conversations, Carsen had to cut everything short."Alright then, I guess we will see later. We need to get going so that we do not miss out," Carsen said to him."That is okay, Mr. Carsen. Have a nice day. Young lady, I did not get to know you, but I guess we will see each other some other time and maybe introduce ourselves properly," the man said to me, and then I smiled in order to please both parties."There is no furthe
~Carsen~My gaze was on Darren, who caressed his furrowed brows, his eyes squinting as if he were calculating a thing or two.With that action, it was obvious that he was worried about something.He lets out a sigh.“D, what's wrong?” I asked as I leaned on the wall. Darren stood up from his office chair, packed a stack of papers from his large mahogany desk, and walked up to the shelf on his right and placed the papers neatly there. He shook his head and turned to look at me.“Those damn humans,” he cursed and gritted his teeth.Oui, they are at it again.“What’s the matter this time,” I asked, my gaze sweeping around the dimly lit room painted in dull colors, not like I mind it's totally Darren's kind of thing. The windows were closed, but still I could see that lonely deer ready to be killed for supper.My gaze swept back to Darren; his dirty blonde hair was gelled to the back. His chestnut brown eyes seemed dull, and baggy circles were underneath, clearly stating he had overworked
~Marcie~I walked out of the exam room with Sarah beside me. Her vibrant aura radiated from every inch of her figure; she exuded warmth and confidence. Her bright smile and bright eyes seemed to light up the entire hallway, and even though the exam we had wasn't all that, Sarah just had a way to make things feel good and hopeful.Standing beside her, I felt almost doll-like with my petite frame structure and delicate features that made me fragile. I was what I would call average-height, but because I was beside Sarah, people would describe me as short, and that's because Sarah was gifted with height, and I wasn't. I took my mother's height; almost all my physical appearance was from mom and dad—only won with my stubbornness and eyes. I had his eyes—those unique multicolored blue-gray eyes which I'm grateful that I inherited.Sarah, being enthusiastic, pulled me into an embrace with her ginger hair stuff into my mouth as she crushed me. I could barely breathe as she carried my petite b
~Carsen~My eyes glazed as I listened to the monotone voices in the meeting room. Another pointless decision about quarterly sales and marketing strategies.My mind wanders, drifting to the stacks of papers awaiting me back in the office. Just two days in this damn human city, and I am already going out of my mind. This is ridiculous; even the pack issues aren't mind-wracking.“... and we need to increase our online presence…” someone droned on.How much longer?I wondered how long I was supposed to endure all this with the humans surrounding me. My gaze drifted out the window, watching the cityscape. I hope things are good in the pack.I had the urge to call Darren to check up on him and Luna. I hope we don't have any issues with those rogues; I can't just help but be worried.Maybe because I miss the pack and everything in it. It's so much different than this place; cars here and there. Noises polluted everywhere, nothing like curfew or silence.Just messy.Finally, the meeting was
~Marcie~I stepped into Kingston Enterprise, my heart beating rapidly, racing with excitement. I know this wasn't my first time, but this is my first day of work.I know if my dad hears about me working here, he's going to freak out. Freeze my account and force me to come back home, but then I'm confident that that man won't know a shit about me working here, and I'm also doing him a favor.My supervisor was a lady in a corporate red gown and her hair packed in a neat bun. Her lips a shade of red and her body, adorned with a trinket, earrings, and a necklace, walked majestically in my direction.She greeted me warmly, “Welcome to Kingston Enterprise, Emily.”Jade, I figured that her name on the tag, led me to where my table was in the office. My eyes blazed proudly when I saw a brand-new computer on my desk and a stunning view of the city.My hands felt itchy, ready to start working on this beautiful computer, which looked yummy to the eyes.“This will be your table for the next few m
~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 distract
Marcie's POV I was about to return to my desk and resume work as Mrs. Jade had sent me on an errand earlier.As I touched my neck region, I noticed that I had bruises, and it hurt me a little bit.I rushed back to the bathroom and took a proper look at the mirror. I was injured a little bit. How could someone act as crazy as the man who pinned me to the wall? I can guess that it was his first time seeing me. Aside from his looks and charming structure, he owes me an apology for harassing me and speaking rudely to me.No matter what happens, I must remain coordinated, as it is my first day at work. I need to get my scarf to cover up the bruise on my neck. I would make him pay for his actions and behavior, but first of all have to secure my job.I started going back to my desk so that I could resume duties as other staff were already settled and working."Hi, Marcie," the voice of Mrs. Jade called from behind.I stopped for a while and then turned back to respond to her."Hope y

Carsen's POVAll my hopes were that she would not push me away or try struggling out of my hands. And I kissed her. I looked at her to know if she would respond or if she would get mad at me.She was already breathing hard, and I knew that I should fire on. So I kissed her for the second time, and then she responded to my kisses, which resulted in a romantic moment with her.Her lips were so soft, and as they touched mine, I felt a chill feeling all over my body. I was so happy as I finally got the opportunity to spend quality time with her.To my advantage, it was only the two of us in the hotel apartment, and there was no one there to interrupt us.Another thing that made me happy was that she didn't fight back; neither did she try to stop me; rather, she responded and played along.Our kisses started becoming more fierce, and then I had it in mind that it was going to result in something else. Whatever it was, I was willing to take full responsibility and also willing to give it my
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
