MICHEAL
My wolf is going feral inside my head after catching a whiff of the scent of our mate.
She's finally here.
I stand up about to end this meeting that has already been dragging on too long.
I need to go get my mate and her hold her tight in my arms.
The double doors are thrown open and my beta walks in with a young chap. Average height skinny kid, with curls and extremely plump lips, his cheekbones are defined , and g features gentle, he looks so delicate and delicious.
I shake my head, realizing that my senses are in overdrive and my wolf is purring and trying to come to the surface.
This young man is my mate, a man, I'm an Alpha I need heirs not some boy to be by my side.
"Get out", my voice is cold and freezing my mate shakes but my beta's hand on his shoulder stops him from bolting out of
the doors, I look at his hand on my mate shoulders and growl.
He just ignores me.
My associates all stand obviously scared and file out the conference room.
I face the two men standing before me, "Kylian what the hell is this".
His face scrunches in confusion, " the new secretary for you".
"I thought I specifically asked for a female", "miss Cadwell insists this is who she will hire".
My chest expands with fury like no other I dislike my word being contested, "I will not have this incapable little shit in my office" and I turn to face my mate, my wolf whining at me to take him in my arms.
He doesn't even feel anything, he is human, not just a man, a total recipe for disaster, " baby mush, I don't care who you are but you are going to leave here and return to whatever hole you creeped out from, I don't want to even see your shadow".
Tears are full in his eyes and my chest tighten.
I steel my expression, " get lost".
I walk out of the room with brisk steps, desperate to get away from my mate and his tantalizing scent, he doesn't even feel the mate bond, I shake my head and head for my office.
KELVIN
I try to blink away the tears that have clouded my eyes, but they just keep coming, I don't understand what I have done to be out rightly rejected by my boss.
On my very first day.
The man who dragged me in looks at me and sighs.
"The boss has spoken, let's get this sorted at HR", once again he holds my hand and pulls me with him.
I stumble on my feet and he just pulls me along without any care at all.
We get to the office and I'm pushed inside.
A stern elderly lady is seated behind an acacia desk, she looks at the pair of us, her glasses low on her nose bridge.
" What is the problem Kylian".
"The secretary, it was supposed to be a female", she sighs, "look what happened last time, and what has been happening to all of the other girls."
"But…", Kylian is brusquely cut off, "but nothing Kylian, there is no explaining the unhealthy pattern in that office, he had it coming to him".
Her voice pitch a tad higher, and she faces me, "young man you will resume your work as soon as possible, I will speak to Micheal and for your sake, I hope you do better and last longer than the ones before you".
She adjusts her glasses and proceeds to face her laptop and ignore us.
What exactly has been happening to the previous secretaries?.
I spend the entire day at the edge of my seat, but my boss is nowhere to be found, once it's time to clock out I hastily do so.
Gathering all my things and hurrying off, I let out a deep breath when I don't encounter my boss on my way out and so I begin my trek home.
I arrive at old building that I live in, if I'm able to keep my job I'll move to a better and safer neighborhood where my younger sister can live healthily and my mom…..
The woman is constantly all over the place but I still love her even if her addiction and wrong choices has forced me to be the breadwinner of our little family way before I was even an adult.
The elevator is out of service as usual so I take the stairs to our apartment thank goodness we are just on the fourth floor.
I step into the apartment and the scene that welcomes me, is not one I want to be a part of.
The men sitting in the middle of my living room scream trouble, and I don't even care how they got in.
I spin on my heels hoping to get to the stairs but I'm struck with a blunt object and find myself being dragged across the hallway into the apartment by a tall, bald man.
"Trying to run away from your debts humm", I groan and turn to face the man speaking, Arrow is sitting on the only chair in my shabby apartment. He is the henchman for some shady organization.
I stay silent, "not chatty are you?, how's that pretty little sister of yours doing humm?"
A threat, kept hanging over my head, in fact she is the only reason why I am in this situation.
"She has not been able to receive treatment yet, please when I get paid from my new job I will pay you back for all the help with June."
"Don't fret my boy, your sister is in good hands, in fact she will begin receiving treatment at the clinic, I just want one little favor from you."
"I don't have any money.", Arrow throws back his head as he bursts into laughter the two men stationed behind me joining in.
I frown at the strangeness of the situation, "obviously you don't have any money", he says in a mocking tone coming closer to me, " but you have access to something we need".
"What?", he smiles a crooked smile showing his yellow teeth, "access to Evans corporation".
"But I just got a job there", he smiles again, the action disconcerting, "yes and you will be our eyes, ears and hands in the company",
"What if I can't do it?, I'm not sure I can do it", "then your sister will pay the price, if you do though, your debts will be cancelled as well as your mothers", he crosses my body while heading for the door.
" Think about it, I will be seeing you soon boy", he says shutting the door behind him.
He doesn't need to shout but the threat is loud and clear, you spy for us or we end your sister.
A deep fatigue overtakes me and I just manage to drag myself to my bed and flop down on it going into a dreamless sleep.
I wake up with a start, my alarm has stopped ringing and if I don't hurry up I will be late for work.
I step into Evans corporation building just two minutes early and rush towards the elevator riding to the last floor.
In my haste to get to my office I hit a solid object and am sent sprawling to the ground.
But before I reach the ground, I'm caught by the waist, despite the awkward position I turn to thank the person.
