"Hey guys," Rhett began, addressing the group of designers in the conference room."As you all know, Alpha Damian Howard appointed Allie as his landscape designer, but Lily expressed some concerns about this decision, given Alpha Damian's identity and background. So I gave her the chance to be part of the project if she had any good suggestions." He turned his gaze to Lilith and Alicia, who were sitting across from him.Lilith was beaming with confidence, while Alicia appeared to be lost in thought, preoccupied with something else entirely."Thus far, I've received drafts of Lily and Allie's designs. However, I've found a serious problem," Rhett announced, turning on the projector. On the screen appeared two general outlines of designs that looked eerily similar. Rhett flipped through slides, showcasing the garden, pool, and sculpture designs. They were almost identical.Alicia stared at the screen in disbelief. How could Lilith's design be almost identical to hers? She felt like her

"Are you insane?" Alicia blurted out as soon as she got into Damian's car, her heart pounding with anxiety.She had a sinking feeling that her name would soon be plastered all over the gossip pages. She had already imagined the headlines: "BREAKING NEWS! Socialite Alicia Wilton Revealed to be King of Rogues' Mate!" or "BIG NEWS! The King of Rogues' Mate is the Wife of Tobias Wilton, the Eldest Son of the Wilton Family!" She couldn't believe that her life had turned into a nightmare in just a few hours.It was only a matter of time before the news reached the Wilton family. If she was lucky, she might be asked to divorce Tobias and be banished from the Golden Moon Pack. If she was unlucky, she might be secretly executed as punishment for her disloyalty to the Wilton Family. Alicia didn't think the former was very likely, given that meeting her best friend Mae was the luckiest thing that had happened to her since childhood.Damian, however, seemed unfazed by the attention his announceme

Alicia couldn't believe her bad luck.Yesterday, she had rejected Damian's invitation to the wine auction on Friday night at the Times Hotel, only to learn today that her boss, Mr. Rhett, had scheduled an office party at the same place on the very same night. She had to wonder if Damian had somehow orchestrated the coincidence.She typed out a message to Damian, asking if he had anything to do with the party, but quickly deleted it. Regardless of his involvement, she knew she would have to attend the event.Suddenly, she caught a whiff of lavender in the air and looked up, expecting to see Damian standing in front of her. Instead, it was Emma, the building receptionist, holding a huge bouquet of lavender."Alicia, your present has arrived!" Emma announced a mischievous smile on her face.Alicia was stunned. "For me? Who sent it?""The florist said it was a mysterious gentleman," Emma replied, sounding jealous.Alicia placed the bouquet on her desk and read the card, which read: "For m

"How long have you been working as a janitor in this apartment?" Damian asked, breaking the silence that had enveloped them.Lee looked up, startled by the sudden interruption. "Oh! For about a year now, sir," he answered cautiously."Putting a veteran in the position of apartment janitor. You can tell the manager in charge of this apartment that he's wasting resources," Damian said, his sarcasm not lost on Lee."Ah, please don't say that. I'm just a wreck, and I'm grateful to Mr. Alston for allowing me to be the janitor here," Lee replied, his voice tinged with gratitude. He shook his left arm, which had lost its palm, a gesture that spoke of his past struggles.However, he soon felt something was off. "How did you know I was a veteran? I've never mentioned it to anyone.""It was just a hunch," Damian replied nonchalantly, masking his true intentions. He gave Lee a friendly smile and asked, "Can you tell me something about the neighbor living downstairs from me? I just moved here and

How do you handle an emergency call from Alpha when you're on a nice Friday night date with your mate? That was the question that Alpha Damian's exclusive doctor, Edward, had to answer. Without hesitation, he left his sexy mate in the lab, grabbed his first aid kit, and rushed to Alpha's new flat.After waiting for twenty minutes at Alpha's new base, Edward began to worry when he didn't receive a message from Damian. He couldn't help but wonder if Alpha had gone in advance of his plans and had been seriously injured during the confrontation with the enemy. But things took an unexpected turn when he saw Damian, who had always forbidden strange women to approach, arrive at his apartment with a beautiful woman in his arms.Alicia gripped Damian's arm tightly as she noticed a stranger in his apartment.Damian reassured her by whispering, "It's ok. He's my doctor - Edward. You'll be fine," while putting his arm around her shoulders.As they entered the living room, Edward, with his keen s
