Alpha Gabriel POVI reached for my phone that was beside me on the couch and dialed a number, it was one of my shadow guards.He answered on the first ring. "I need you to keep a close watch on Arnold", I commanded,my voice firm. " Monitor his every move." With those words, I ended the call.Arnold is my late father's elder brother. He has always harbored a deep grudge against my father for being chosen as the Alpha. His grudge further extended to me when I became the Alpha, he wanted his son to become the Alpha."Isn't that your uncle?", Asher asked, raising an eyebrow as surprise flickered across his face."Yes", I replied. "I don't trust him one bit, you know how cunning he can be. I need to be a step ahead of him."He nodded in agreement and focused his attention back on his phone. I rose from the couch and made my way back to my desk, resuming sorting the relevant files and responding to emails."You're not going home?"Asher asked, breaking the silence.I glanced at the time on m

I applied for the job online a few days back, it was the post of an office assistant.I took off my nightwear and wrapped a towel around me before entering the bathroom to freshen up. In a short while, I was done, and I got out of the bathroom feeling refreshed.I ruffle through my wardrobe, trying to figure out what to wear. I didn't have much corporate dress in my wardrobe; most were casual dresses.I spotted a plain black pant trouser tucked away at the far end of the wardrobe, I paired it with a light blue button-down shirt."This will do", I muttered to myselfI tied my hair into a neat low ponytail and applied a touch of makeup. I looked at myself in the mirror, satisfied with my appearance. A s

I was practically tapping my foot in anticipation.The previous night, I received a text from the Beta, asking me to come check the space he had found for my bakery. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the message, just in the space of a week after I told him my decision to own a bakery shop, he had already found a spot for me.Glancing at the time on the phone, I realized that it was just a few minutes past 2 pm and the Beta had asked to be there by 3 pm. I could have gone alone but I decided my mom should come with me, I wanted her to share in this joyous moment with me.Wondering what my mom could still be doing in her room, I wouldn't want us to get there late or keep the Beta waiting."Mom!

Selena pov*Two weeks later*Today was the day I had been dreaming of for years- the grand opening of my bakery shop. The anticipation of this day had filled me with an indescribable mix of nerves and excitement.I carefully pulled open the oven door, and a rush of warmth greeted me along with the tantalizing scent of the freshly baked pastries and cakes filling the air.Using an oven mitt, I carefully took out the trays containing the meat pie and sausage rolls along with the cakes consisting of vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate flavors placing them on the counter in the kitchen.The sight was mouthwatering, the golden brown crust of the meat pie and the sausage roll glistened with a hint of butter, while the cakes were perfectly risen and adorned looking all fluffy.Next, I turned my attention to the doughnuts and scotch eggs, frying them to a perfect golden brown. I added a finishing of whipped cream to the cake and a chocolate ganache on the donut making it look more enticing.On

Selena Pov"She'll regain consciousness any moment from now, let me know as soon as she wakes up", I heard a voice say.I slowly opened my eyes to find myself in a different environment. It took me a while to realize that I was lying on a hospital bed surrounded by the scent of antiseptic.I tried adjusting my eyes to the harsh fluorescent above casting a glow on my face. My eyes darted around the room, I noticed a nurse standing by my bedside and a doctor headed towards the door."Doctor! She's awake", the nurse called out to the doctor who was about to reach for the doorknob to make her way out of the room.The doctor halted and turned around making her way back towards my bedside with a smile across her as he approached me. She was dressed in a lab coat and a stethoscope dangling around her neck.I rubbed on my temple feeling a slight ache in my head as I struggled to recall how I ended up in the hospital. It slowly came back to me- I was about going home home with the Beta when I

Alpha Gabriel pov"So I think we should go with this plan. It's better than the previous plan and it's going to be more beneficial for the company", I explained pointing to the draft in the system. "Or do you have any objections to it?" I asked seeking for his input.I glanced up at Asher who was seated across from me with his legs crossed as usual, only to realize that he had been absent-minded all along throughout my explanation.His eyes were distant as he furrowed his eyebrows, it was obvious he was lost in his thoughts oblivious of his surroundings. I couldn't help but feel that something was troubling him. Lately, he seems to drift off more frequently."Asher! Asher! Asher!", I called out, jolting him out of his thoughts."Huh, you were saying something?", he asked."What's wrong with you man? Are you alright? Is there something you are not telling me?", I asked,sensing his unease."No, I'm fine. It's not serious", he replied but his facial expression betrayed his words."Why do

Not only have the sales been mind-blowing but the heartfelt reviews I keep getting from customers after patronizing me fill me with an indescribable joy and that alone makes me want to keep striving harder.Besides, I've been able to employ three people to help me out. Two were positioned at the front counter of the shop attending to customers and one who will be assisting me in baking. It feels so surreal to see my dream come to life and have a wonderful team supporting me.I sat on a stool near the kitchen counter, i scrolled through my phone, my fingers swiping and the screen as I waited for the meat pie and the sausage roll in the oven to finish baking while my assistant was busy frying the doughnuts.This was the third batch we were making for today as the customer's order kept increasing. My gaze shifts to the oven where the aroma of meat pies and
