ALEX

Every part of my mind knows I shouldn't be here.

I shouldn't have gone back to the kitchen.

I shouldn't have seen his scars, and I definitely shouldn't have followed him back up to his room.

But every other part of me wants to be nowhere else but here.

With his pain on my hands. Literally.

While he’s standing shirtless, half-wet, and wearing nothing but a towel as if this is a perfectly normal night in the Alpha’s Quarters.

I inhale slowly. Steady. Mimicking a professional.

“Sit,” I say.

  • An Alpha's Obsession    Chapter 161

    AARONFIVE HOURS EARLIER/Drip Drip Drip Drip/The sound of the leaking tap in the unisex bathroom temporarily acts as my stress ball. I close my eyes, leaning against the shut door and tap my fingers against its wooden outline to mimic the sound of the tap. “Aaron, I didn't know she would—”Before the useless herring can get the words to roll down her mouth, I raise my finger, silencing her in an instant. “You had… one job” I murmur, forcing myself to calmly breathe. “A simple, minuscule atom of relevance. For one second, your useless life had the opportunity to actually mean something, and what did you go ahead and do?” “I… I didn't expect that woman to be there” she frantically blurts. “...and even if I did, how was I supposed to know she'd come up with a solution to fix everything? Was that even part of what you got me for? How is this my fault?”/FLICK/My eyes snap open the moment she lets the words down her mouth, and I lean off the door to stand straight up.“Come again?”

    MASONApart from the finance department, the record department is the most confidential one in the entire organisation. Only two people are granted access in here — the two people that make up the department in the first place. Salvatore and I.“It’ll only be an hour” I remember murmuring to Aurora before I entered. It's been almost four now, and Salvatore and I have been locked in a tuh of war battle with processing the documents for our expansion. “The Mendez Files from the land approval. I've still not seen a thing. Any luck on your side?” I hear him call out. “I told you we should've computed those things instead of leaving it in physical form. I still went ahead to scan it though” I lean off the ergonomic chair, and glance back at him. “It should be in this computer, but I can't remember what I saved it as” I tiredly mumble, and he looks back at me in disdain.“Maybe try searching ‘Mendez Land File’ in the search bar?” He ironically groans, walking over to the system, typing i

    MASONIt comes as no surprise that not a single one of them can raise their voices now. The credit might've been given to Oakley's maneuver, but it's pretty clear Aaron's presence is responsible for the sudden silence in the meeting room.We're all seated at the round table, Aurora beside me, and Aaron's beside him. From the looks on their faces, I can't tell which one of them will burst first. Benjamin in anger? Ortiz in confusion? Salvatore in salvage?/CLAT/The sound of Aaron's foot slamming against the meeting table pops the balloon of discomfort. He crosses his legs, and looks back at every last person in the room in insolence. “Well?! You bastards had a lot to say in my absence. I suggest you speak now or forever hold your peace.”The hesitation bathing them is too clear to mistake. However, just as I'd expected, one is able to shoot through.“So you were the one responsible for what happened a couple days back, huh?” Benjamin stands, and his voice heads straight for the no

    MASONDiana-Diamante, simple and short. That's the name of our beverage company. My father thought it was pretty romantic to name his biggest asset after his wife, even though she'd always expressed her distaste for alcohol. Well, biggest asset is a tame way to put it, when it's pretty much the only business of his that survived the past decade. With his hotel business dying out, and his venture into real estate, a harsh memory, Diana-Diamante is actually father's only asset. The entirety of IronClaw rests on its shoulders, so you'd think the man would take it a little serious. Far from the case.Not only has the Alpha not showed up here since mother died, he also willingly gave me control over it at just twenty. Leaving the second biggest business in the entirety of Namora… to a then, twenty year old kid who was still balancing life and college. Sure enough I got the hang of it, but that wasn't until numerous failures and horrible business deals. Luckily, Diamanté is now worth j

    ALEX These aren't the borders I remember. We stop just across from it and my body soaks up the details it's been dying to focus on since the drive up here. The scent of cold, almost stale air fills my nose, combatted only by what has to be blood and nothing else. Beyond us, a communion of trees
