His Fifth Mate

Alpha Miguel It has been five months since the death of Jenny, but I'm yet to get over it. Although that has happened before, but hers makes me feel so guilty each time I think about it. Every day, I come to work, feeling distressed. I guess my secretary got tired of the new me and decided to quit. I got a new secretary today, but I don't just feel like seeing her. I just want to be left alone. "Sir, it's me, Clarissa," Her voice sounds from outside, reminding me that I asked her to see me after lunch. "Come in," The door opens as soon as I usher her in, and she walks in. "Mate!" Ares, my wolf growls inside me, and I snap my head up to see her standing there and staring around the room. It's my first time seeing her, and she looks extremely beautiful. She is not too tall and has a curvy shape that makes her suit fits her perfectly. Her long blonde hair is packed in a ponytail with some strands on her forehead. Her skin is flawlessly smooth and beautiful, even though she d

Chapter 5 Alpha Miguel "Thank you, Sir," The way she smiles at me after I drop her off at the bus stop makes my heart flutter, and I feel my wolf wavers inside me excitedly. "Hmm," I nod my head before I start the car and drive away. The thought of Clarissa fills my heart as I drive down the road minutes later. Even though I have been avoiding her all this while, I still feel drawn to her, and I wish I can stop this. Arriving at home minutes later, I set to go to the pack to see Ares, because I need to discuss with him about this. It has just been one week since she started working with me, and I seem to be losing control of myself, I just wonder what will happen the rest of the time we would be spending together. Teleporting to the pack is not something difficult, since it's what I have always done. On my way to Roan's chamber, I stop on my track when I bump into the chief of the castle. It has been a while since I last saw him since I have been avoiding him.

Chapter 6Alpha Miguel Reclining on the chair, I watch as she eats the food cautiously. With just a glance, anyone would know that it's her first time eating something like this. 'She's she the one for you, Alpha' Roan's words replay in my head, and I sigh briefly as I throw my head back, spacing out again. I don't know why this had to happen after I've given up on ever being with any woman, but then I feel like life is trying to give me a second chance, but am I ready for this chance? What if she ends up dying just like others? Will I ever be able to be free from the guilt? She's just an innocent human that doesn't even know about my identity. I feel like it'll be selfish of me to do this, knowing that she won't be safe, but what about the bond that keeps drawing me close to her even if I try to resist?"Isn't she pretty?" Ares suddenly pulls me out of my train of thought, and I sigh briefly."I'm scared, Ares. I'm scared she's not safe around us," I mind link Ares, and I feel him

Chapter 8Alpha Miguel "You can't keep staying like this without a mate, Alpha. You need to find another mate, or better still, let's choose one for you. Thank the gracious lord that one can always have a chosen mate," Ralph, one of the chiefs utters, and I groan frustratingly while rubbing my forehead. This is the reason I detest coming to the castle, I prefer to live as a CEO peacefully amongst the human, but I can't deny the fact that I also have responsibilities here, right?"We even went as far as hosting a birthday party for you yesterday and invited the maidens from the pack and other neighboring packs in a bid to get you a mate, but you didn't show up Alpha. What is really going on?" Gael, another one says as he stands up to his feet, and I sigh briefly."Alpha, other Packs are going to mock us, and may even call our Alpha a weak impotent man that can't satisfy a woman which was why he hasn't gotten one in his life," Gael further says, and that is it. How dare he call me impo

Chapter 10Clarissa POVMy heart wavers in excitement as my boss drives me down the road. I keep glancing at him occasionally, and I can't help admiring his perfection. Unlike when I just started working here, he has really changed from being a ghost-like and introverted boss to a fun person, even though he talks less."Why do you live alone? Aren't you married?" I ask him out of the blue as a result of my curiosity, and he glances at me. I mean, he's old enough to be married, and for him to tell me that he lives alone is kind of questionable."No, I'm not married. Why do you ask?" He replies to me casually, and I smile. For some unknown reason, I feel excited about his answer. Yes, I have a crush on him, but that doesn't mean that I should be happy that he's not yet married, right?"Nothing," I shake my head, and he nods his head.The rest of the drive to my apartment was filled with silence, and we finally arrive after about twenty minutes of driving."Thanks for the ride, Sir," I s
