LOGIN"I didn't.." Seraphina is about to say something but Andrew beats her to it. He drops forcefully to his knees so hard it makes a dull thud against the polished floor. His eyes get wet instantly. "Sir, it wasn't like that. I .. I..." "Get him out of here!" Kael booms. "He's a disgusting sight." Seraphina blinks, stunned at the turn of events. For a heartbeat, she's certain she's the one about to be fired. Her heart sinks straight into her stomach. She almost smirks at Andrew's pathetic display but quickly replaces it with a trembling, innocent look instead. "Take him out!" Kael said coldly, not even glancing at Andrew again. "No, sir. Please, Mr. CEO!" Andrew wails as guards grab him. "How will I pay my bills now? How will I.. I'm so sorry. I have children to feed! School fees! Feeding money! Please!" The guards were starting to drag him away, his shoes squeaking against the floor. And for reasons Seraphina doesn't want to admit—even to herself, her heart tightens. She feels the
Seraphina sighs, feeling exhausted after the meeting at the hall. She drops into the chair in her office, ready to melt into it. Her bones hurt, her brain is fried, and her face still twitches from the stress of that meeting at the hall. And then... the landline rings. "For crying out loud, can't I get even a minute's rest?" She grabs the receiver anyway. "Yes, Seraphina speaking." "Miss Seraphina," Mr. David's voice says, sounding unusually frantic. "I have just been informed that the CEO wants to meet every newly recruited employee in the conference room personally." Of course, he does. What a pain in the actual ass. What did he just do in the hall then? Stretch his legs? Admire the ceiling? Practice his brooding? A hundred questions rolls in her head and she wanted to ask them all, instead all she says is, "Okay, Mr. David, I will be there in a jiffy, sir." Well, that's new. She has done a tangible amount of research on this company and she knows for a fact that the CEO d
"We've gathered that the man who runs the organization, The Order, has travelled outside the country for a mission as he says. You're expected to follow him everywhere without his knowledge.. and inform me on everything."His tone is firm, steady, leaving no room for questions. But of course.. Lucien opens his mouth. The gamma's face scrunches up dramatically as he leans forward. "Why does Roran get the cool role while I'm stuck being thought of as a man whore?" Roran sighs quietly. Florence bites her lips, trying not to laugh. And kael.. Kael simply ignores Lucien like he's swatting away an annoying insect. Lucien huffs loudly but Kael moves on without blinking. He breaks down the rest of the plan in detail. They were all seated, listening as the Supreme Alpha spoke. His golden eyes remain blank but under that cold exterior, his mind never stops weaving strategies. Once he finishes, everyone finally nods in agreement.Florence straightens up, folding her hands neatly on her lap.
Just as Kael was leaving the hall, his cell phone rings. It is Lucien. He picks the call up. "Lucien," he says. "I'm done here. If it's not urgent then we will talk there." "Ummm.. Kael, someone wants to meet you. She says she is from the Red Moon pack." Lucien says. Kael's steps halt mid-way and his bodyguard's too. "What is she doing here? " "Oh, you know her?" "Yes! " Kael answers, his voice clipped as he looks around with guarded eyes. "Well, she's not in the office. She is in a nearby café in a private booth alone. She said your number wasn't going through so she contacted me. " Kael nods. "Let her remain there and make sure no one.. I mean no one spotted her. You and Roran should be there too. " "Why..." Kael cuts the call when Lucien was still speaking. After about fifteen to twenty minutes, Kael arrives at the meeting place to see Roran and Lucien already there. Before coming here, Kael got rid of the bodyguards that were behind him, telling them not
Thankfully, Seraphina entered into DarkSlade's Enterprise and the CEO wasn't in his office. The man she spilled coffee on plus the receptionist she met at the entrance of the company made her morning so frustrating and annoying. Before she got in, the receptionist eyed her dress, "None of your peasants boyfriend works here." Boyfriend? Peasants? Seraphina rolled her eyes. Of course, she is mocking her dress. She narrowed her eyes "My name is Seraphina Lightwood. I'm the current secretary to the CEO." She scoffed. "You can't be. Our company is professional and.. and we couldn't have hired someone like you." Seraphina wasn't in the mood for long talks and exchange of words. She brought out her work ID card and showed it to the receptionist rendering her speechless. Seraphina walked out of there. "What a bitch!" Arriving in her office, she glanced around. "Nice. Much more than I expected." She made herself comfortable on the chair.Before she could get too relaxed, the landline
Seraphina woke up late again because of her nightmares. The alarm she had set rang a long time ago. Sometimes she wonders why she sets an alarm when her nightmares are always going to wake her up .. late. Deep down, she knows that for the rest of her life these nightmares will keep haunting her until she avenges her mother's death. She gets up from her bed and goes towards the bathroom in a hurry. After completing her business, she wore her disguise. Looking at her reflection on the mirror, she sighs. "I miss my curves." The girl that stared back at her in a long skirt and a long sleeved shirt wasn't looking bad at all. Just simple in her thick nerdy glasses and dyed red hair. Seraphina rushed out of her apartment, standing on the curb while waiting for a cab to hail. She waves for a cab to stop and she enters, grateful to have found one as she was already late on her first day of work. "Way to start a mission, Seraphina." She says then she remembers something and gasps. "Oh, no!!
