VINCENT"Leave" I was trying to restrain myself, but it was getting harder to do so while she was still here.She stared at me one more time before leaving and closing the door behind her.I leaned against the table and ran my hand through my hair, it was getting harder to resist the mate bond and Cole wasn't helping, I could still smell her perfume of lavender and it clouded my senses, I couldn't even stop thinking of her.Since the death of my mate, Scarlet, I never thought that I would be given a second mate, it's never been heard of and it was hard to accept the mate bond, knowing that I was the cause of Scarlet's death, she had risked her life to save mine and it has been tormenting me for three hundred years now and I cannot seem to get the picture of holding my dead mate in my hand out of my head."Just mark her already" Cole suddenly screamed in my head. " Scarlet never wanted you to mourn her for three hundred years""We are not having this conversation Cole," I said ignorin
RILEYI left his office feeling something weird inside me, this was the second time I had come to his office, and anytime I left, I had this strange feeling inside me and it was becoming more intense than the last time.I couldn't comprehend what I was feeling or why my body felt this way whenever I had an encounter with him. I had said that I was going to try and avoid meeting him, but it seems it was inevitable, he was the president of the company avoiding him wasn't going to be easy"Ouch" I bumped into someone and my book fell, I was lost in my thought and wasn't concentrating on where I was going."I am so sorry" I apologised as the person bent to pick up my book, he had blonde hair and was wearing a grey suit."There is no need to apologize, I was also in a hurry," he said, giving me my book."Thank you" I took the book from him.I noticed he was the blonde guy I had seen with the president on my first day as an intern."You must be the new intern," he asked with scrutinising ga
"Alpha" Dalton stood up and lowered his head with his face to the ground.I did the same thing and I could still feel his cold gaze on me."Leave" his voice was cold and restrained, it was as though he was trying to suppress his anger.Dalton without hesitating left the stairs and I was about to follow him but the president stopped me"And where do you think you are going," he asked"To my office, it's lunch over" I replied, not looking at his face." If you knew that, why were you here" he sounded annoyed"I…I lost track of time" I tried to compose myself, his presence was domineering." Follow me" he ordered walking away.I hesitated a little not wanting to follow him but seeing that his two bodyguards were waiting for me to walk, I followed the president putting a good distance between us.He took me to his floor but he did not enter his office, he opened a door that was close to his office.I followed him into the room, and the guards closed the door once we entered.The room was
I got home and met Louis watching TV in the sitting room. He was sitting on the couch with a bowl of popcorn in front of him.."Hey shortie, care to join me," he asked munching on his popcorn"I have lots of work today, I am going to my room" I replied him heading towards my room"Should I bring your dinner?" he asked."No, but I would like some light snacks""Okay, I will bring it to your room" he stood up from the chair pausing his movie"Thanks, Louis, I would love that" I replied leaving the sitting room while Louis went to the kitchen.I got to my room, and after taking a shower, I sat at my reading table and brought out the files.I sighed, feeling exhausted, it was obvious that the president disliked me, I mean who treats their intern like a workaholic? I only took five minutes from my work time and he gave me all these files.I flipped through the next page of the file and typed it into the computer when I heard a knock on the door."Come in Louis" I answered while typing on m
After lunch, Cassie and I went back to our office.I logged into the computer and continued the work I couldn't finish before lunch.Cyrus's door opened and he came out of his office holding two files, he gave one to Cassie and the other one to me.I took the file from him and looked through it."I need you to go through these files and correct the errors, make three copies each once you are done," he said "Riley, if you don't understand, Cassie can put you through""Okay," I nodded."And I don't want to be disturbed, if anyone comes looking for me tell him I am busy" "What about the president," Cassie asked immediately, her voice was shaky when she mentioned the president."Tell him it's my time of the month, he would understand," Cyrus said and I found it hilarious." Your time of the month," I asked, trying not to laugh." It's not what you are thinking Riley, so don't have any funny thoughts in your head," he said and I nodded trying to suppress my laughter he gave me a stern loo
I woke up in a cold and dark room, I noticed I was lying on a cold concrete floor. I sat up and hugged myself trying to make my body warm.I looked around trying to find out where I was but didn't see anything, there wasn't light, and the room doesn't have any windows."Hello" I called out and my voice echoed in the dark and quiet room.I tried remembering how I got here but the last thing I remembered was being in the forest with the feral wolf.Did I die? But if I did it was a painless death.Trying to ease my fear, I stood up from the cold floor and looked around trying to make out anything in the dark.I walked forward trying to find out where I was. I took one more step and the next minute I was falling. I screamed in fright as the fall continued and finally, I landed on the floor. The impact of the fall wasn't painful.I got up and noticed I was standing in front of a red door, I opened the door and a bright light emerged from the room almost blinding my eyes.I squinted my eye
I woke up to the smell of antiseptics and drugs which was overwhelming. I scrunched my eyes at the bright light that was sipping through my closed eyelid. I slowly started blinking desperately, trying to open my eyes and see what was around me. Where am I? As the blinding light subsided, I slowly opened my eyes, squinting in an attempt to sharpen the blurred image before me.I glanced around and took in the deserted pristine blue and white colour schemed room.The room was silent apart from my heavy breathing and the beep sound coming from the IV monitor beside my bed. This was a hospital, and it didn't seem like any hospital room, it looked like a VIP ward, there was a flat screen tv and the room was well ventilatedI tried to figure out how I got here, and then it struck me, I was in the forest, and it seemed that I didn't die but I was saved from the feral wolf and I wondered who saved me.The door opened and the person I saw made my heart skip a beat. I don't know why I felt glad
I was surprised to hear her say it again. On my first day in the company, I was told that he doesn't allow anyone on his floor, and hearing this now made me want to find the reason I was going to be working on his floor."Is Cyrus in?" I asked."Yes, he is waiting for you," she replied." Okay, thanks" I walked towards Cyrus's office and Opened the door." Good morning." I greeted entering the office and closed the door." Oh, Riley, you are here, have a seat," he said gesturing to the chair opposite him " I am sure Cassie has told you the good news"" I am going to be working with the president," I asked sitting on the chair" Yes, why do I have a feeling that you don't want it"" No, I just find it strange". The truth was that I wanted to see the president, I was feeling kind of lonely when he left the hospital and didn't come back, and anytime I think about what happened at the hospital, my face turns red." There is nothing strange Riley, you are going to be working with the presi
