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
Under the brightness of the room bulbs, Gabriel and Selena's bare skin brushed against each other as their clothes lay scattered on the floor.Gabriel's masculine hands gently caressed the sensitive parts of her body, causing her to clutch onto the blanket as her toes flickered from the excitement.Gabriel's lips then delicately moved against her neck, and he nipped on her skin, leaving bite marks everywhere. Selena moaned a bit louder every time she felt Gabriel's warm lips against her body.When one of Selena's hands released the sheet, she grabbed onto his back with it, and the moment Gabriel's teeth bit into her skin, Selena's nail pinched into his flesh."Did I hurt you?" He gently asked."No, you did not." Selena said with a soft smile and tears in her eyes.Gabriel warmly smiled back at Selena before pressing his lips against hers and intensely kissing
Gabriel held his breath back for a while before releasing it, then knocked on Bob's room door."Sir, what can I do for you?" Bob asked when he opened the door and saw his young master."We need to talk!" Gabriel coldly said.Bob swallowed his spit as he stared at the serious expression on his young master's face."May I ask what we need to talk about?" Bob inquired."It's not a topic that should get discussed in front of a room door." Gabriel replied as he waited on his butler to let him inside."I am sorry, sir. Please come in.""Thanks."The two men headed into the bedroom, and Bob hurriedly shut the door before rejoining with his young master.For a brief moment, Gabriel paced back and forth as he surveyed Bob's room. He then took a seat on the couch when he got through.&nbs
The next morning, the villa was calm, and everything went on as usual. However, everyone that works within the walls of Gabriel could feel the change in both Selena and Gabriel.Breakfast was quieter than other mornings, and the way Selena and Gabriel avoided eye contact with each other was quite noticeable. "You all can leave." Gabriel commanded.No other words got spoken as the workers left Selena and Gabriel alone at the dining table.'What now?' Selena thought as she bit into her toast and pretended as though she was not bugged by how empty and quiet the room had become."I have assigned new bodyguards to protect you. I don't want what happened last night to happen again." Gabriel said."Why? Do you hate having sex with me that bad?" Selena mumbled."What? No! I am not referring to what we did last night. I fired them because they allowed you to get hurt!" "They did nothing. It was all my fault, and Mathew and Craig don't need to suffer for my error. So I don't need new bodygua
