Just as Alice took her seat, there was a commotion. Alice paid no heed to this as she was more anxious about the interview.
She was brought out of her thoughts when a pair of shiny shoes stood in her line of sight. She looked up at the person but before she could see his face clearly, her wolf growled, "MATE".
Alice immediately rose to her feet then she was able to see the face of the person standing before her. Alice paid no heed to his facial expression and kept smiling at him but the smile was brushed off her face the moment she saw the look of disgust and anger the man was giving her.
All her fantasies about her mate having lots of fun her crumpled down before it started. Just as she was on the brink of tears, she thought of another ray of hope which was her mate wasn't a werewolf so he didn't realize that she was his mate. Alice inhaled his scent deeply and the little ray of hope she had also crumbled into pieces. Her mate wasn't a human but a werewolf but why is he staring at her that way? Does he not want her?
"Who allowed her in?" The question made Alice snap out of her thoughts but her mind was still in disarray. She opened and closed her mouth but no word was able to get out.
Meanwhile she didn't realize that all her actions had been misunderstood by the man standing before her. From his aspect, she was just like all those women who'd do anything to get into his bed but the only thing that was different about her was that she was dressed so poorly and her voice was void of any make-up. Unlike other women who had tried to get into his bed, this lady didn't dress seductively. Or was this another way to get into his bed? Thinking of this, his expression turned grim as he glared at her.
Alice had been staring at the man and at that period, she has regained a little bit of composure. Now, she was able to register the man's facial features clearly. A golden brown hair that reached his neck which she was also dying to touch, thick and full eyebrows, icy blue eyes, a sharp nose, a full red lips and a well designed jaw. Yes well designed cause he appeared like a piece of art. Alice unconsciously wanted to put her hair behind her ears but then she remembered her hair was packed in a neat bun so she awkwardly released her hands.
Meanwhile the others who also came to apply for the job all pointed fingers at Alice while laughing. They didn't dare laugh aloud for fear of the big boss using his anger on them. They didn't wish to get the same look Alice was getting cause it isn't any look one would pray to get from the devilishly looking handsome man.
"Throw her out".
"Throw her out" a voice rang out loudly. As soon as Alice heard this, her feet grew weak and she almost fell to the floor. She instinctively held unto Justin's arm but who knew that as soon as she did this she was immediately flung away which made her end up looking miserable on the floor. Alice fought the tears she was about to shed and bit her lip. Justin threw the guards who were walking slowly a cold look. Sigh, the burly looking but timid guys immediately hastened their footsteps. They wasted no time in holding each of Alice's arms while taking her out of the company. Alice had no time to protest as she was treated like a bag of rice and dragged out of the company. She bowed her head in shame and embarrassment as they dragged her out. Her cheeks were stained with tears that had magically found its way out. Alice was left lying on the floor by the guards who threw her looks of pity. Why would they look at her that way and then still leave her on the floor lying miserably? She did

And no! She wasn't into middle aged men! Hmph! "Oh, it's nothing, no need to be bothered about what I said", Alice smiled sheepishly. "I sure will", the man said and as soon as he did, he pulled Alice by her hand and began dragging her to the company. Alice was in shock and allowed the man to drag her. She woke up from her trance when she began feeling cold. Just as she took notice of her surrounding, she met a pair of frosty eyes and she froze in her steps. The man who had been dragging her realized that she had suddenly refused to walk further. He quietly shook his head and he came face to face with Justin. Not caring about the audience surrounding them, he glared at Justin and ordered; "I want to see you in my office right now! And...you all can go. The post of the secretary have been filled", the last part of his sentence was addressed to the arrogant but sexily dressed ladies who stumped their feet as soon as they heard him. If looks could kill, Alice as well as the middle-ag
She got confused when she saw him press a red button on the wall. Her heart pounded furiously in her chest. Alice's expression was worth making a meme. She was so lost in imagining different scenarios that she failed to notice that the middle-aged man was now staring at her. Meanwhile, the man held in his laughter as he stared at Alice's hilarious expression. A very interesting girl- he mumbled. Not to make Alice awkward, he cleared his throat and motioned her to follow him in.Alice snapped out of her thoughts when she heard the sound. She realized she had been spacing out lately and she needed not to be told the cause of this. "Let's go in", the man said smiling sheepishly. Alice rubbed her head in awkwardness and followed after him. Soon, they stepped into an office and Alice subconciously shivered in fright. The air in this office was very cold and to make things worse for Alice, her mate stepped into the office. Her nerves which were growing less increased with an octave. Her h
As soon as he said this, a young yet sexy woman barged into the office."Hey baby", the lady chirped and immediately walked towards Justin while ignoring the other two. Alice watched as her mate was being pecked and kissed. Her wolf whimpered in pain but there was nothing she could do. Meanwhile, Justin's father was fuming in anger. Times without numbers, he had tried telling his stubborn son that the slut wasn't good for him but he has always been ignored."Oh, father-in-law, you're here?" The lady asked tauntingly."Veronica, that should be a rhetorical question right?", Justin's father scoffed in anger. He knew Veronica Smith was a white lotus. In the presence of Justin, she was always acting like a saint but when he wasn't around, she'd show her true colors."Dad..", Justin forced out of his clenched teeth.""Don't Dad me Justin, am i that small that she didn't see me first before walking over to you? Isn't she a werewolf? My scent isn't masked", Justin's father, Mr. Sylvester
Before Mr. Sylvester could respond to Alice, a sultry and annoying voice was heard..."You better don't!"."Shut it, Veronica! You don't have any right to tell her such", Mr. Sylvester said with so much anger in his voice which made Veronica shiver. She had never seen him so angry before. The thought of Alice being the cause of this made her very displeased and she secretly glared at her.This time, Alice wasn't oblivious to the glare Veronica threw at her. What made her confused was the purpose of Veronica glaring at her. She had done nothing to make her angry or jealous. Not wanting to cause trouble, Alice bowed her head before thanking Mr. Sylvester and Justin."Thank you! Thank you!" , She said enthusiastically. "Get out", Alice heard and the smile was immediately wiped off her face. In shock, she raised her head and for the first time, directly stared at Justin who had a murderous look on his face. Alice stood rooted to her spot and still couldn't comprehend what she heard. "Ar
"Don't you know how to knock?", Veronica yelled."I'm sorry", the secretary replied with no ounce of remorse but was instead staring at Justin like a piece of meat waiting to be eaten."Chloe, you really should learn to start announcing your presence before barging into my office. Now, what brought you here?", Justin asked with clenched teeth. Judging from his facial expression, one could clearly see that he was very angry. ' how could someone spoil his romantic moment with his fiance'."Sir, I brought these papers for you to sign", Chloe said, smiling brightly at Justin, totally treating Veronica like air."Sure, leave them on my table and see yourself out", Justin commanded. With clenched fists, Chloe walked out.Meanwhile as Alice walked out of the company, tears kept streaming down her face. The more she tried to stop her sobs, the more it grew.Passersby stared at Alice. Some pitied the damsel in distress while others felt disgusted. Alice was quietly walking by the side of the r
"Oh, sh*t! Did you hear about the banquet?" As soon as he asked, he gripped the wheel tightly, not daring to glance at Alice."Da..vid Kim, what ban...quet?", Alice asked through gritted teeth, enunciating each syllable making David gulp."Hehe, the banquet between our pack and other packs. It's to celebrate the Luna's birthday and the Alpha also said it's to also find his daughter's mate", David sheepishly scratched his head."When did you hear about this banquet", Alice asked, still angry. Hearing her question, David swallowed his saliva with difficulty. Only if he could run out of the car right now."Hehe, it hasn't been long since I heard", he answered, trying to evade the topic but he could never outsmart Alice.The next minute, a loud thump was heard and David screamed in pain."What did you do that for?", He asked as he stylishly glared at Alice."Oh, you dare ask me that!, If you really want to know, let us get to our destination first and then I'd tell you", Alice smiled whil
