Gabriel's eyes slowly opened when he heard his phone buzzing on the nightstand. He looked to the left and saw Selena peacefully sleeping beside him."How long did you stay up to take care of me, omega? Anyway, I should be thankful to you since it is because of you that my fever is gone." Gabriel mumbled.He then smiled at how attractive Selena's sleeping face was before getting out of bed and taking his phone into the bathroom to avoid disturbing her."Sorry for interrupting your sleep, sir." Guss's voice echoed through the phone speaker."What is it, Guss?" Gabriel asked."Well, we have found multiple hideouts for the black dragon gang like you ask. So what now, boss?""Get everyone to the headquarter. I am on my way." Gabriel commanded."Okay, boss."After the call ended, Gabriel turned to leave the bathroom when his eyes met wit
"Say something." Zac stated after standing in silence for a while and getting no response from Selena.The office remained quiet for a some time as Selena focused her attention on the wall clock. Then within a few seconds, she looked back at Zac."Your five minutes are up. You can leave now." Selena said.Zac folded his hand in a fist out of anger, yet he kept a gentle expression and a crooked smile on his face."Selena, please hear me out!" Zac pleaded.Selena leaned back in her seat, then stared at the broken image of a man she once loved, and at that moment, she pitied who she once was."I have given you the minutes you needed and also listened to enough of what you have to say. I think you should leave. We are not getting back together. It won't happen now, and it's never going to happen!" Selena calmly stated.However, Zac did
When Selena got done with all the work on her desk, it was already seven o'clock in the evening. And the moment she arrived at the villa, the time was eight-thirty.'Who knew running an entire company would be this stressful?' Selena thought before she lazily stepped out of the car with tiredness in her eyes and headed into the villa.Lily and the other maids noticed the bruise mark on her arms, but they dare not ask any question about it."Good evening, madam. Dinner is ready." Lily announced with a gentle smile on her face."I don't have the energy to eat anything right now." Selena said."But madam. Sir commanded us that we should not allow you to skip dinner, or we would have to answer to him. Please eat, even if it's just a little bit." Lily pleaded.Selena stared at the fear in the eyes of all the maids, and she could not help giving in to their w
"I can't believe he left the villa again before I woke up. Today makes it the second day that he has left the house at such an early hour. I wondered what he's doing after he leaves the villa? I could ask, but stupid alpha won't answer even if I question him with tears in my eyes." Selena thought.She stood by her office window, admiring the stunning view that the tall height of the Adler's building presented to her."Madam, there's a lady named Jin outside, causing a scene and demanding to see you." Mathew said after he had entered Selena's office and shut the door behind him."Why do all these fools love ruining my morning? Three days as the CEO of this company, and I can't breathe because all these haters keep walking in my office like it's their bedroom." Selena lashed out.Mathew stood silent and waited for her to finish complaining. He could tell from the rage in Selena's eyes that interrupting her would be a bad idea."Madam, I can ask her to leave if you don't wish to see her.
"Janet, what are you doing here? Didn't the doctor say that your wound reopened, and you have to stay in the hospital for one more week?" Lily said in shock when she saw her workmate walking towards her. "Oh well. What can I say? I can't bear staying that long away from the Villa, work, and you guys." Janet replied as she admired how clean the kitchen was. "Did you tell our young master that you are coming home?" "No." "That means you took a taxi. You know sir could have sent the workers vehicle for you if you had told him." "I saw the news about him revealing his identity, so I assumed that he would be busy. That's why I didn't want to bother him." As Lily and Janet continued their discussion, some of the maids entered the kitchen, and they were shocked when they saw Janet. "Look who finally decided to come home? We miss yo
Selena took one look at the remaining dishes on the table and felt like puking. Her stomach could not take in food anymore. She pitifully gazed at Gabriel, who had been eating the same dish since Selena started with her first plate.Now that she was on her sixth plate, the food on Gabriel's plate was almost finished."Gabriel, I'm full." Selena childishly whined.Gabriel giggled at how silly she looked with an amateur face on. He then laid down his fork and smiled at her."Are you ready to go home?" Gabriel softly asked.Selena nodded, then rested her head on the table because her stomach was aching."Ahhh, I shouldn't have eaten this much seafood. But it was so good, and I could not resist the temptation." Selena mumbled.Gabriel got up from his seat and headed over to Selena. He gently tapped her to get up."G
'Three days! It has been three whole days and I haven't seen Gabriel nor have I had the chance to speak with him. At least he should tell me what I did wrong instead of ghosting me. Mathew informed me that he saved Janet's grandson, and I want to say thank you, but that's not possible now since he leaves the villa early and comes home late. I've tried various times to get into his room so we can talk, but his door is always locked each time.' Selena sadly thought.Her head remained rested on her office desk as she wallowed in self-pity about her and Gabriel's current situation."Boss, here are the documents that you asked me to get." Rose said after staring at her boss for a while without Selena recognizing her presence.Selena slowly raised her head from on the desk, then depressingly stared at her secretary."Oh, Rose, you are here?" Selena asked."Yes, boss." Rose replied.
"Boss, what are we going to do?" Guss asked as he stared at the mad Dragon gang members who seemed thirsty for a fight. "We fight our way through and see how many men both of us can take down individually." Gabriel said with a sly smile. 'Sir, the fact that you are calm and even excited in such a situation makes me uncomfortable.' Guss thought. The guys in the club seemed to be getting annoyed as they watched Gabriel and Guss have a private conversation with each other as though they were the only ones in the building. "How dare you arrogant rascals disrupt our party and act like you guys own the place!" One of the guys shouted. "Guss!" Gabriel called out. "Yes, boss." Guss answered. "Do I like being called a rascal?" "No, boss." The guys were shocked when they hea
