ログインIt's been a week since she got employed. Vivian had expected a challenging environment but surprisingly, it was quite easy for her. In the second week, her superior started praising her work. Vivian sat in front of the superior, her legs crossed, looking really relaxed as the superior went through her work. “This is good, Vivian,” she said after a while. Vivian looked up from her phone with a small smile on her face. Of course it was good. “Really?” she raised a brow. Her superior nodded. “Your research is thorough, and your presentation was excellent. Keep this up.”A pleased smile spread across Vivian’s face.“Thank you.” she said modestly. She had known she was capable. She just needed the right opportunity and the right place and now she had it. Over the next few days, Vivian put in more effort, she worked harder than she had ever worked before. She arrived early, stayed later than the closing hours just to make sure she was laying behind. She also made sure every report she
Anaïs recognised the woman the instant she laid eyes on her. She had high cheekbones, confident long strides, and long dark hair tied up into a high ponytail. She was unlike any other woman Anais had met. Subconsciously, as the woman drew closer, Anais lowered her shoulders. She wanted to hurry past but the woman had other plans. “Why do you look familiar?” she suddenly asked when they were free opposite each other. Anais Slowed down.She didn't expect to be spoken to. “We met at the conference,” she said softly. She looked Anais over. She scanned her memory for every woman that attended the conference. “The conference?”“Yes.”Then she suddenly recalled a certain plus-sized woman who had taken most of Lucero’s attention that night.Vivian’s eyes sharpened.Before she could ask another question, Lucero’s voice came from behind them.“Anaïs. Don't you have an assignment?” They both turned. Vivian narrowed her eyes. When he called this woman, his tone was calm, with an unmistakabl
He stepped aside. “Come in. Come in.” He said. Anaïs walked in.Lucero stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, his hands behind his back as he looked over the city.She hesitated.“You called for me…sir?” He turned. His eyes pinned her immediately. He didn’t answer, Instead, he walked toward her.The intensity in his eyes made her take an unconscious step back. She barely had time to react before his arm slipped around her waist. He pulled her closer to his chest. Her hand immediately settled on his biceps. She squeezed. “Sir?” He repeated.Before Anais could reply, he lowered his head and kissed her.Once. Slow. Gentle.He took his sweet time. As if making up for the time he lost. Anaïs’s heart skipped.When he pulled away, he didn’t go far. He simply rested his forehead against the side of her neck and took in a deep breath. Anaïs frowned slightly. Something was wrong with him. “…Lucero?”He didn’t move. His head remained where it was. She tried to push him away but h
To make it look very believable that she was indeed going to discuss serious business with Lucero. She went with her notepad pressed against her chest. Her steps were steady. Her heart was not. Anyone she got past she had to smile and then secretly hope they wouldn’t suspect her. She sighed in relief when she rounded the corner and didn't see anyone in the hallway. She hurried to the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor. The closer she got to Lucero’s office, the more her thoughts drifted back to that morning. Her face grew darker. Earlier That Morning…Anaïs woke slowly to the feeling of being pressed against something hard. For a few seconds, she didn’t remember where she was or what she was doing there. “Hmmm.” She heard something behind her, then felt the hard wall press closer—the familiar warmth. An arm was wrapped securely around her waist. She froze. Her eyes widened.Lucero.She was practically pressed against his chest, her back resting against him. His
Matthew glanced from Lucero to the now-closed elevator doors. He didn't need a soothsayer or a Sherman to tell him what was going on. He had worked beside Lucero for years. He had seen him negotiate billion-dollar contracts with annoying clients without blinking. He had seen him stare down rival Alphas. He had seen him sentence traitors without changing expression.But this….This was somehow more terrifying because there was no logic behind it.He had to do something. If not there would be blood on the floor. It could even be his blood.“Think Matthew think.” he slapped Gus's forehead. He thought about everything relating to Anais. Then it hit him.Matthew stepped forward carefully and cleared his throat.“…Alpha.”He called out. Two seconds. No response. Lucero looked like he was one provocation away from snapping his neck. He tried again.“…Alpha, Miss Anaïs…”Lucero’s ears twitched. Matthew raised a brow. ‘Really?’“Miss Anais woke up very early this morning.”Lucero’s gaze shif
To be honest. It was a better feeling to get an instant promotion and work in a higher position. Anais remembered when she used to hurry into the office like a dog was chasing her because even if she was a minute past the clock-in time, she would be chewed out by her colleagues and manager. But now she didn’t really need to stick to the on-time rule. All she had to do was hand in the documents when needed and on time too, and everything would be okay. Anaïs stepped inside the company with a small smile on her face. She was sweating now; she felt so refreshed. Everything felt so different. The employees who had once ordered her around when she still worked in that little cubicle now gritted their teeth and greeted her when she passed by. “Wow.” She whispered under her breath when she passed by Damian’s three little minions, and they did not eat her out. She wasn’t sure whether to be happy or uncomfortable. Probably both.“She probably slept with one of the higher-ups. She’s such
Chapter 5 “Kneel.” The words fell into the hall like a command from above. The pressure was so powerful that the weaker wolves also fell to their knees, while the strong ones could barely remain standing. The weight of the word settled. Gasps rang out across the hall. The elders stiffened. The
Chapter 4 She knew who exactly he was. The realisation hit her before she could stop it. ‘Of all people…it was him.’ A bitter thought spread in her chest. This perverted wolf. Lucero looked down at the woman with a cold face. Anais sucked in her breath. ‘Was he here to mock her too?’
Chapter 3 LUCERO He had received the invitation three days ago; a formal dinner between packs. The meeting was political. Necessary... A Waste of time. His father had insisted he attend, saying it was beneficial for the peace and progress of his pack as the next alpha. But he knew better. N
Chapter 2Damian stopped in front of her. He opens his eyes. His face twisted in disgust.“The fuck?” he muttered to himself but it was loud enough for everyone to hear. “Why her?” As soon as he spat out these words the whole room froze. Then their faces curved with mixed reactions. They began to
