Marcie's POV
It was already getting late, and I was still outside waiting for the clothes vendor to arrive, even though he had told me he was on his way.
I would not blame him for the delays; I would rather blame the person who sent me here to punish me for what he knows he is at fault for.
I kept calling the vendor, and he gave me excuses and asked me to be patient.
One thing I hated doing was going home late or being seen hanging around at night; besides, the country is not even too safe at night.
After waiting for almost two hours, he finally arrived. As he saw the deadly look on my face, he started smiling from afar.
All I did at the moment was ask myself who the hell he was smiling with, because I probably knew it was not me.
He came up with a lot of excuses and apologies, but that was not my problem. All I needed was the clothes of my wicked boss.
Immediately, he handed them over to me; I headed back to the office without saying goodbye to the vendor.
I was just thinking of a better way to punish my boss for the whole ill-treatment he was giving me.
As I got to the office, I noticed that almost everyone was gone, and the ones that remained were already about to go.
I rushed into the elevator heading to his office so that I could hand over his property to him.
As I got there, his assistant was already gone and the office was locked up. I was really annoyed because of the time I wasted.
All I needed to do was to take the clothes home. Maybe I could hand them over to him tomorrow. But what if he decides to create trouble out of it?
He was already looking and hoping for my downfall, but it would not be a victory for him.
I went back downstairs ready to go home when I saw a staff member who held the keys to the office.
I explained to him exactly what was going on because he demanded to know the reason why I was still upstairs all the while.
He advised me to take the clothes to the CEO if I wanted to avoid issues. So, his character is not even a new thing to his staff.
They were all aware of his attitude towards the appearance of things.
Where the problem came from is that I do not know where he resides, and I have to hand the clothes over to him as soon as possible.
I asked the staff for a bit of help, and then he assisted me with packing up my bag and also finding the address for me.
As I received the address, I got onto the road again and headed for his house.
Getting there, his house was looking good even though it was night already, but I did not care about anything at all.
I banged on his door as though he had been owing me a huge amount of food for some decades now.
As he came to get the door, he was really shocked to see me, or better still, he was afraid.
"What the hell are you doing here?" he asked me angrily.
The question was another reason for me to hate him because he was the one who sent me on the errand.
After giving him the response he deserved, he collected his clothes and then asked me to come in.
Even if I were a senseless person, the last thing I would do is step my feet into his house.
I knew he had ulterior motives towards me, but I was not going to fall victim to his traps.
It was already night, and that was the perfect time for people to commit crimes without leaving a trace behind.
"Well, since you are not going to come in, keep standing there and do not even think of going away because I am not yet done with you," he said to me as he took his clothes to go in.
What have I done to him to deserve such cruelty from him? I had to wait for him to come out.
Maybe he wanted to send me on another errand for him.
It was his turn to behave as he liked, because I would still pay him back tenfold for what he had done.
As he came out, he started locking up his door. It was as though he was going out. I just stood, watching him to see his next move.
"Follow me," he said to me as he moved towards the garage.
Maybe he wanted to hand something over to me. I went with him, and then he asked me to get into the car.
I refused to go into the car even as he tried intimidating me. He had to come around and force me to get in.
I struggled, but he was much stronger, taller, and bigger than me. The weight of his hands alone was really massive.
"Okay, fine, I will get to the car," I gave up when I could not resist him.
I peacefully entered, but I was boiling in anger and thinking of a good strategy to pay him back.
"Please, put your location on the map," he asked rudely, even though he added please to his words.
I had no option but to put it on, and then he started driving.
All I expected was to receive torment from him as I was in his car, but he remained silent while my nose was in the air.
I did not even trust him at first until I started seeing familiar places, and then I realized that he had actually brought me home.
Maybe he was being tormented by his conscience, but that was not my problem. As soon as he stopped the car, I came down without saying a word to him.
If he was expecting a thank you from me, then he has to be a joker. He should be the one thanking me for running errands for him.
I started going to the entrance of my door when he called my attention.
"Be really careful when going out at night and avoid anything that will bring you out this late," he started lecturing me after he was the cause of everything.
"And try remaining in the location you are supposed to be so that people do not start searching for you anyhow," I responded to him and went into my house.
I just went straight to my bedroom, angrily thinking of a good comeback.
Carsen's POV After she had brought the clothes that I asked her to bring, I noticed that it had taken her so long, and it was already late. As she acted angry, the only thing that came to my mind was how she would go home at that late hour.It was not new to anyone that the country was not safe at night. It was a general thing around the world because at night people who had the motive to commit crimes carried out their mission successfully without any trace. I asked her to come in so that I could figure out a way to send her home safely. As usual, she acted stubborn and refused to come in. The last thing I would do is force someone into my house because they could turn my good deeds into something else. I ignored her asking her to wait for me while I went in to drop off the clothes she had brought from my vendor and also grab my car key. I knew that she would not work out like that because she desperately needed a job for her survival.As I came out with my keys, s
Marcie's POV I stared at him for a while, then I bent down to pack up the files, which he forced me to cross-check. I was already getting really pissed due to his cruel attitude towards me.From the look of things, the files looked like something that had been kept for years. Some looked really old, some looked older, some looked new. My instinct kept telling me that the files were something that was given to him to work on for more than five consecutive years.He has been so lazy that he packed them up through the years. And now, seeing me as an arch enemy, he decides to frustrate me with them.Regardless of his attitude towards me, I would not give up. He felt that he was the CEO, and he had the right to pick on anyone that he chose, but I will be the one to clip his wings. As I packed up the papers, he looked at me, and I could see the joy of frustrating me in his face.He was so mean, pathetic, and an evil soul. I felt like plucking out his bold, cute eyes.The worst p
Carsen's POV It was almost past working hours after I had dismissed Emily Martin. I went ahead and packed up my things so that I could get home early. I felt stressed even though I didn't do much.Talking to Emily can be a bit of a strainShe was so stubborn and would argue about every single thing. But at least I tried stressing the hell out of her, and I knew that she would have me in mind for the rest of the day. While she was with me, I noticed that she had a whole lot of things to say to me, but she just decided to hold them back.At times, it is actually important to free up the mind by spilling out everything hidden there.I succeeded in making her angry throughout the day, and that was just the beginning of the frustration I am going to put her through.I hope she is aware that the worst is still going to come as long as she stays in my organization. I wanted to leave a bit early to take a break from human beings and to take a break from Emily and her suffo
Marcie's POV He insisted that I follow him to the next store as he wanted to pick up some other items, but I refused.How could he be treating me like a slave? I was willing to leave the job rather than follow him out again.We both kept arguing about it till my phone started ringing out. Sarah must have been waiting for me for so long. I had accepted going partying with her, and my boss wanted to ruin it all. I hate giving her false hope, only to disappoint her later..I picked up the call as he insisted that I take it in his presence and assured her that I was already on my way.Immediately after the call, I boldly told him that I was leaving and he could not do anything about it but let me go. As I moved on, I did not turn my back to avoid getting carried away by the looks on his face.I quickly got on a bus that would stop at the bus stop around my area. As I highlighted, I quickly rushed into my own apartment to get prepared. I already knew that Sarah had been wai
Carsen's POV Immediately after speaking to the guy who was disturbing Emily, I asked her to follow me out of the club.It was not safe for her anymore, and no matter how stubborn she behaved to me, I would not watch her get hurt. I always feel like I should be the only person to punish her or frustrate her. But no matter the feelings I have, I strongly believe that I am not in love with her, neither am I obsessed with her.Normally, she would refuse to follow me no matter what happened. We could have a brief argument before she agreed, but this time was different.I guess she was a bit scared and now uncomfortable with the environment. As we left the premises, I was not really sure about what was going on, because normally, a guy who disturbed a woman in that manner would not just let go.The way he reacted got me thinking, but I had to take it off my mind. Maybe he was intimidated by my stature and my abs. I was much bigger than him, and he would not want to disgrac
Marcie's POV I was a bit excited when I got home, but I was also worried and scared at the same time.Anytime it occurred to me that my CEO and I actually kissed each other, I developed goosebumps immediately.From our usual argument, we found ourselves kissing each other without any back and forth as usual. I sat in my sitting room confused as I remembered that he did not say a single word to me after dropping me in front of my house.But he was the person who made the first move, so why should he be angry at me, who did not start up anything? The question I kept asking myself all through the night was if I was going to get sacked.Why would I fall into such temptation with the Devil? He might decide to sack me in order to avoid seeing my face after making the mistake.Such a person with the little time I have spent with him would never accept that he is wrong in any way and would try his possible best to get rid of anything that made him uncomfortable.It got to some poi
Carsen's POVHow could Emily say she did not remember anything that happened between the both of us the previous night?Does she mean that I was the only one who enjoyed the moment, or does she mean that I forced her to kiss me?If she was not okay with it or if she did not want to kiss me as well, she would have refused to, or she could have done what her gender is fond of doing.They always make use of their palms to slap, even though they know that they are all weak and fragile.I was so angry as she said she did not know what I was talking about, but I knew she wanted more than what I gave her even though she could be dying inside.I kept asking her to be sure that it was not true and also to be sure that she does not have memory loss every new day.My anger kept boiling up, and Rowan kept giving her the benefit of the doubt as he always did.This time around, he claimed that all she was trying to do was to act along. I have never seen anyone acting along with whoever they had the
Marcie's POVI 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 shocked to see Emily out there, even though I knew that she would be the only person who would be able to knock on my door, because the other people who were there just came to do their job. If they wanted to see me, they would have to go through Emily before getting access to my room or before knocking on my door.I was shocked, but then I set my eyes on her, and she was looking so beautiful, and the dress she was putting on made her look so perfect. I was so amazed and so happy to see her that way, which made me compliment her so much."Oh my goodness, Emily, is this you? You look really amazing in your dress; you look so beautiful," I said to her as I saw her in the dress, looking so beautiful and mind-blowing."Thank you so much, but are you okay?" she asked him. The question was strange, and I did not understand the reason why she asked me such a question. I looked at her in confusion. I expected her to give me a reason why she would ask me if I was okay."Is t
Treasure's POV Early the next morning, I got up as I knew that I had a lot to do and there was something really important that I needed to handle. I began to call Tracy K to know if he was ready and if everything was going to go as planned. I did not want anything to ruin what I had in mind and how I wanted the whole journey to work out."Hello, Tracy. Good morning. I know it is too early for me to start calling you, but I needed to confirm if everything was well set. You know that we do not have to take any chances at all because this is where our earnings lie," I said to him as he picked up the call. "Good morning, sir. As for what you are talking about, it is actually too early, I should say, but I will definitely know what's up when it is a bit brighter. I am still in bed right now as both of us are speaking, and it was your call that woke me up," Tracy K explained to me."All right, I understand what you are trying to say and what you are talking about, but then I want ever
Treasure's POVI did not know if I made it obvious to him that I wanted to figure out what had happened at that moment. All I knew was that I was trying my best to make everything not noticeable."Sir, it is already late, but if you want me to help you pick up what you need, I will be so glad to get them for you. I can probably help you to do it rather than you stressing yourself at all," Tracy responded to me. I was so happy that they did not make any meaning out of it."Not at all; you do not have to worry yourself. I could do that by myself, or I could send someone else to probably pick up the things for me. You have done a lot of things for me today, and I really appreciate that. Thank you so much for everything, but now you have to give me the name of the mall and the address so that I can go pick it up once I need it before it gets too late. I could have waited till tomorrow, but I need them so urgently, and I think you can help me with that. Only the address and the name of the
Mr. Vaughn Alexander Sterling's POV After I had finished speaking with Mr. Kelvin, it was almost time for the experiment, so I decided to go to the laboratory so that I could meet up with them and see what they had for me.I got there some minutes before the time they gave me, and they had not yet arrived. I started thinking about it because I expected them to come a bit early so that we could do the experiment on time."Can someone tell me the reason why they are not here yet? It is almost noon, and there is no evidence of them coming," I said to one of the scientists that was close to me, as I was really confused and was doubting everything that treasure said to me.Advise that I exercise a little bit of patience and maybe wait till afternoon before I begin to conclude. I had to wait as he had told me and then try to focus on another thing.I was inside the lab when I started hearing the voices of the scientists discussing outside and also different voices there.I went out to
Mr. Vaughn Alexander Sterling's POV I went to bed early because I could no longer stand the anxiety, time was so slow, and I had almost a day left.Early the next morning, I woke up, and then I was happy that it was D-Day, and they would surely fulfill their promise.I went into the bathroom, and there I freshened up, forgetting that it was by noon and that if I began to prepare, I would spend a lot of time waiting for them to arrive and the experiment to begin.After taking my bath and brushing my teeth, I went to put on my clothes, still having the mindset that after the preparations, I would leave the house.After putting on my clothes and looking good, I decided to call Treasure on the phone to find out how the preparation was going over there and if they were already at the laboratory."Hello, Treasure the werewolf hunter, a beautiful morning to you," I said to him as he picked up the call.I could vividly remember that it was the name he called himself the first day he came
Vaughn Alexander Sterling's POV I was already beginning to lose interest in the whole werewolf stuff because it was as if I was being played by Treasure and his team.I have called him several times just to know what he was up to, but he kept me in the middle of nowhere.It was really annoying, and so I decided to stop calling and focus on my business and the other things I was working on.I did not call him; neither did I fund his account anymore because it was as if I was being duped. I had to mind my business and focus on the growth of my company.In the office one afternoon, I started getting a call from Treasure. At first, I did not want to pick up the call, but because I was still curious, if I was given the opportunity to know more about what he was doing, I would willingly accept without counting the number of disappointments. As I picked up the call, I changed my mood, as though I was not happy, and also the way I spoke to him was not friendly. I wanted to prove to
Marcie's POVAfter Carsen left me and the fashion designers, we went into my room so that I could see what they had for me.From the looks on his face, I knew that there was an issue and something was bothering him, but he was not panicking at all.He was really calm and spoke without stammering or showing that there was something wrong.I thought about it, but then I remembered that we would be going for a dinner date, and that was where he might get what he wanted for so long.He would be really nervous right now, and that was why he had to spend so much just for me to look good at the dinner date.I understood how he felt about it, and then I decided to comply and do everything just to please him, even though I knew that he had spent a lot, as I told him when they just arrived."Hello ma'am, we are from the Frozen fashion house, and we are here to make you look good, as your husband had told us to. We have some of our outfits here, which we thought you would love according to how h
Carsen's POVAs I got into my car with a fashion designer, I began to speed up as I did not want to get into a fight with that Hunter. I knew he would probably be following me so that he could attack me or do something crazy, but then I did not want to have anything to do with him; neither did I want to stalk him as he was doing to me. I knew that I had important things to attend to, and I also knew that capturing these hunters was one of the most important things on my list.I just had to overlook him and go for what I had to attend to because he was a distraction, and I might probably get into a fight with him as he wanted, and then everyone in the mall might see me as a monster. That was another thing he was trying to do because if he wanted to keep everything cool, he would not have started attacking me in such an open place."Sir, I hope you are okay now, because I noticed you were not alright when we went out to the mall. Please, if there is anything you need us to work on, I be
Treasure's POV "What can I offer you? I have food in the fridge, and I also have drinks. Do you mind me dishing out food for us to eat?" I asked Tracy K as we got inside the house."Well, I am not hungry right now, but anything you offer me, I will take it because I know that you will not let me leave without eating something," he responded to me, as he knew that I would always force him to eat, even though he said he was not hungry to eat anything in the house.I then went inside to dish out the food for us to eat. As I was inside the kitchen, I thought about our journey tomorrow, and then I knew that we had no issues because everything was being solved and the car, which would have been an issue, was already gotten.I knew that Tracy would do his part of the work, so I had nothing to worry about. It was just like me celebrating even before our victory. After dishing out the food, I went to the sitting room to call Tracy to come over so that they could eat, but then I saw that
