All Chapters of THE ALPHA'S SECRET : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

OCTAVIA POVI’m sitting at the small kitchen table, nursing a cup of tea that’s already gone cold, as I recall the troubling dream from the night before. Just then Nadia walks in, all smiles and energy that feels far too forced.“Good morning Zebrina, had a nice night?" She greets, her face radiating with excitement.“Good morning Nadia, why are you so excited?” I doubt, my eyes never leaving her face.Nadia immediately grabs a seat, move closer and take a seat close to me.“Zebrina, darling, we’ve got something exciting planned for you,” she says, perching on the edge of the counter, as she grab hold of one of my hands, squeezing it slightly.My brow furrows. “Exciting?” I ask cautiously, already sensing trouble, as I grab my tea, sipping it in a bit to calm my nerves.“Yes!” she chirps. “A trip. Tonight. You’ll leave the country for a short course. A wonderful opportunity for you to… broaden your horizons.”I nearly choke on my tea. “Tonight? What do you mean, tonight?” I set the c

THIRD PERSON POV Nadia's voice is light and dismissive on the other end of the line. "Oh, Zebrina, don't read too much into it. You're just stressed from the flight or maybe the time difference is catching up with you. Forget about the stranger, he's probably just some businessman or tourist. Not important."Octavia's brow furrows, feeling a twinge of disappointment. "But there's something about him... I don't know, Nadia, I feel like I've seen him before. And his eyes, they seemed so familiar."Nadia's tone becomes firmer, more insistent, as she skillfully steers the conversation away from Eren. "Zebrina, trust me, you're overthinking this. You need to focus on your schedule and your meetings. You've got a lot on your plate, and you can't afford to get distracted by some random encounter at the airport. Let's focus on the upcoming charity gala and the investors you're meeting with tomorrow."Octavia hesitates, unsure if she's just being paranoid. Nadia's words are reassuring, but a

THIRD PERSON POV The sun shines brightly on the lavish wedding venue, casting a golden glow over the elaborate decorations. Eren stands at the altar, his smile fixed in place as he gazes out at the sea of guests. Bennis, his bride-to-be, walks towards him, her white gown shimmering with intricate lace and crystals. Her eyes sparkle with excitement as she makes her way down the aisle, her father by her side.The guests can't help but be mesmerized by the extravagant display of wealth and opulence. The venue is adorned with rare flowers, and the air is filled with the sweet scent of roses. The sound of soft music and the rustling of expensive fabrics create a sense of luxury and grandeur.Bennis beams with joy as she approaches Eren, her eyes shining with happiness. She takes her father's arm and gives him a gentle squeeze, her smile faltering for a moment as she glances at Eren. He, however, maintains his composure, his smile never wavering.As Bennis reaches the altar, she turns to f

EREN'S POV I step out of my car and onto the dusty construction site, the morning sun beating down on me. I'm already fuming, and the sight of the collapsed wall only adds fuel to my fire. I storm over to the site manager, my anger radiating off me like heat."What happened here?" I demand, my voice low and menacing.The site manager trembles, "I-I don't know, sir. It was just a small mistake, and... and the wall collapsed."I glare at him, my eyes blazing with fury. "A small mistake? A small mistake?! This is a disaster! Do you know how much this is going to cost me?"I take a step closer to him, my face inches from his. "You're fired. Get out of my sight. I don't pay you to make mistakes like this."The site manager nods frantically, backing away from me. "Y-yes, sir. I'm sorry, sir."But I'm not done yet. I turn to the other workers on site, my eyes scanning the area. "And you, and you," I point to two workers who are watching the scene unfold. "You're both fired. You're not doing

ZEBRINA/OCTAVIA POV I stand at the front of the conference room, looking out at my team of staff members. We're having a board meeting to discuss a potential partnership with Eren's construction company."Alright, everyone," I say, getting the meeting started. "Today we're discussing a potential partnership with Eren's company. They want us to partner with them to build a new supermarket for their new products."My team nods, taking notes and looking interested. One of them, a young woman named Rachel, speaks up."What's the benefit of this partnership for us, Zebrina?" she asks. "Why should we partner with them?"I smile, confident in the deal. "Well, aside from broad network of connections this alliance could give us, this partnership would give us a chance to expand our business and get our products into a major supermarket chain, for example our newest furniture, could be sold at this supermarket for as little as peanut rent money. Plus, Eren's company is reputable and trustworth
