The Secretary's Unexpected Mate Chapter 26
Alicia's POVSeeing that I had been given the week off from work, I decided to get up and do the house chores myself. Plus, I had informed my nanny not to show up.With a smile on my face, I began to wash the dishes, cook, and clean. From what I could tell, Elisa was playing, and that’s why she clearly hadn’t bothered me for now.I tried my best to keep everywhere clean before I could go do the laundry. Just as I was still caught up with so many house chores, the loud knock against the door caught my attention.It made me curious, considering the fact that I had informed the nanny not to show up today. Besides, I barely knew anyone around the area. So who was it at the door? I pondered deeply.The knock came again, swift and abrupt this time around. Without hesitation, I took off my apron and tossed it onto the chair that was beside me. I headed for the living room.I had to check if I was okay too before opening the door.I began to speak, thinking it was my nanny, “I told you not to
The Secretary's Unexpected Mate Chapter 25
Brian's POV. The bottle was already half-empty.I sat on the edge of my bed, my fingers curled tightly around the glass as I stared into the golden liquid, hoping it would blur the sharp images in my mind. But no matter how long I stared, no matter how fast the alcohol hit my system, Alicia’s terrified face wouldn’t fade.My stomach turned as I remembered her trembling hands, the way her eyes welled up with fear when she told me what happened. I should’ve been there. I should’ve protected her. The fact that it happened in my hotel made the guilt heavier. My chest felt like something was pressing against it, a weight I couldn’t shake.I tipped the glass and swallowed it all at once. It burned going down, but it didn’t stop the ache.The door creaked open behind me."Alpha Brian?" Nathan’s voice broke through the silence.I didn’t turn. "What is it, Nathan?"He stepped inside, closing the door gently behind him. I heard the soft thud of his boots on the carpet."Just wanted to give y
The Secretary's Unexpected Mate Chapter 22
Alicia's POV. Mr. Brian's voice still echoed in my ears, low and firm. "I'll take you home, Alicia. No arguments."My heart fluttered at the idea. Not from excitement, but dread. I looked up at him, my boss, the president of the company, standing tall in his usual dark suit. His expression was unreadable, as always. Calm. Composed. In control. He looked at me as if he already knew what I would say, as if my resistance was pointless."Sir, I appreciate it, but... I don’t think it’s a good idea. People might start talking." My voice was barely above a whisper. I looked down at my feet, trying to avoid the intensity of his eyes.He didn’t move. Didn’t flinch. "And you think I care about what they say?"I swallowed hard, still not meeting his gaze. "It could cause problems. Rumors."There was a long pause before he spoke again. His tone is sharper now, more commanding. "Refusing me would be disobedience, Alicia. You’re already on your second strike. Do you really want a third?"My chest
The Secretary's Unexpected Mate Chapter 21
Brian's POV. After wrapping things up with Mr. Thompson, I finally let out a deep breath. The man was a pain; arrogant, loud, and always trying to talk over everyone. But I’d handled him, like always. I turned around, expecting silence, but instead, I saw Alicia rising to her feet. Her movements were slow, almost cautious. Then I noticed something off—her steps wobbled, and her knees buckled slightly.Before I could think twice, I moved.I reached her just in time, scooping her up into my arms like it was second nature. Her body stiffened, and she started to struggle, pushing weakly against my chest. But I held her tighter.“Don’t move,” I said firmly, my voice low but clear. “Just stay calm.”Her hands froze on my chest. She looked up at me with wide, questioning eyes, and something in me reacted; something hot, deep in my core. I wasn’t expecting that. Her eyes locked onto mine, searching, confused, maybe even a little angry, but she didn’t say a word. She didn’t have to. That ga
The Secretary's Unexpected Mate Chapter 20
Brian's POVClimbing into the car, I didn't hesitate to ignite the engine. As it roared to life, I noticed my phone buzzing. When I looked at it, I realized it was the address that James had sent to Alicia to go pick up Mr. Thompson.With my jaw clenching tightly, I stepped hard on the accelerator, propelling the car forward in the direction. As I drove, I couldn't help but reflect on the mistakes I had made in just a single day.At first, Alicia was in her office. She was looking weak and unhealthy, but I didn't give much attention to it. Instead, I scolded her and pushed her into making decisions she shouldn't.Now, she was with a man who would do just anything in his power to have a lady beneath him. With my fingers tightening on the steering wheel, I pressed hard on the accelerator. I needed to arrive at the hotel faster to avoid anything from happening.“Just hang in there a little longer, Alicia, I'm coming to get you soon,” I mumbled, my frustration deepening at every turn I to
The Secretary's Unexpected Mate Chapter 019
Brian's POVAs I sat quietly in my office, I kept on recalling how Alicia looked when I found her sleeping in her office this morning. Her eyes were sulken, not to talk about how unkempt her hair was. Could it be that she didn't go back home last night? Did I push her into overworking herself?I shook my head, trying to get the thoughts out of my mind. I shouldn't care. She brought this upon herself. She had the chance to leave, but she chose to stay back.I turned to the documents on my desk. I tried focusing, but it was difficult to do so. Closing the files in frustration, I stood to my feet. I began pacing the office until a knock came at my door. I thought it was Alicia, so I acted all stern and tough.“Come in,” I demanded, expecting her calm demeanor before me. I was instantly disappointed when the door opened to my Beta, Nathan, who bowed his head to me.“What do you want?” I asked in a grumpy tone, seeing that he wasn't the one I was expecting in my office.He paused for a sec
The Secretary's Unexpected Mate Chapter 018
Alicia's POVThe sudden burst and loud bellow that resonated through the walls of my office immediately jolted me out of dreamland, making me snap my eyes open.“Tell me, Alicia, what should I do if a secretary doesn't have her phone on and is on duty?”I knew I had a problem now. I had slept all night in the office after being locked up with worries in my heart. Then I couldn't control my body, being in a trance this morning at work, and I didn't have any bars on my phone.“This is my mistake. I will volunteer to work three hours of overtime this week.” I mentioned this punishment method first so that Brian would not punish me in another way that I could not accept.“Don’t try to play your tricks in front of me.” My heart was hanging in the air. His cold, deep eyes scanned every inch of my face. I swallowed hard.He was more sensitive than I thought he should be. Brian had Alpha’s blood—a hearsay I received in the tea room. I had married an Alpha before, and I knew how much an Alpha
The Secretary's Unexpected Mate Chapter 017:
Alicia's POV “No… no, I'll do everything possible not to mess things up,” I assured, shaking my head slightly as I tried to keep my composure. “I hope you do better than you have said. Now, leave my office,” he commanded. At this point, I would have stayed and continued apologizing, but it was clear he was still angry about the tampered document. I turned on my heels and dashed out of his office, closing the door behind me. The second I got out, I immediately noticed the eyes of others on me. They began to whisper, as always. They must have been scared of what Mr. Brian would do to me. Well, I don't blame them because I was scared too. With my head lowered, I made my way to my office. Once inside, I walked over to the chair and sat down behind my desk. I ran my fingers through my hair. Frustration seeping in, I bit my lower lip. I had to try my best to keep this secretary job, but Brian was clearly not a kind person to deal with. His words about sending me out of the company kep
The Secretary's Unexpected Mate Chapter 016:
Alicia's POV. “Mommy, do you really have to go to work? Why don’t you just stay with me all day... please!” Elisa begged as she held my dress, her eyes filled with genuine concern and pleading. Elisa felt uneasy when we moved to the new city. I truly didn’t want her to suffer because of my divorce from Andrew. But it was the reality we had to face together. I had bills to pay, and I had her expenses to take care of. She wouldn’t understand it all, even if I tried to explain it to her. I wanted to prove to myself that even if I raised her alone, I could give my daughter a better life. It was a single mom’s resolve. I crouched down to her level, smiling at her, my hand reaching out to gently caress her hair as I stared into her eyes. “I promise to be back home early today,” I assured her, but she shook her head. “I don’t want you to go at all. I want you to stay home and play with me, just like you used to,” she begged, her words making me recall when we were still in Silver Fang P
