Hi, Girlfriend,” he smiled, kissing me again. He loved to do that lately, and his kisses were sweet. The two employees in the studio silently left, and | closed my eyes in embarrassment.
This is so unprofessional,” | murmured, wrapping my arms around
his neck.
“| can’t help it. You're just so tempting,” he said against my neck. He was inhaling my scent. My body felt warm, and | could feel my inner regions start to moisture. It had been too long since | was with a man. Too long. David and | kissed lightly here and there, but nothing intimate happened... Yet. | initiated the kiss this time, and he seemed pleased and kissed me back. He lifted me in his arms amid our kiss, and | wrapped my legs around his hard torso.
“Oh,” a breathy moan escaped me. Our kiss was getting fierce and needier. Our breath is heavier. My hips were grinding against him, wanting more contact with our skin. We halted our movement when his phone rang. We ignored the buzzing at first and resumed our kiss, but my phone rang. | pulled away from his face.
“We should answer. It could be important,” | purred. He scowled and reluctantly nodded. He put me on my feet, and | checked my phone as
he did his.
“S hit,” we stared at each other. We were to attend the quarterly
executive meeting. Everyone was there except us. | quickly tried to fix my cluttered clothes. After | was done. | helped him fix his tie.
This is your fault,” | said as we left in a hurry. He smirked.
“| told you, you're so irresistible,” he winked. We hurried to the conference room and entered. | regretted entering first because | came face to face with the CEO. They say eyes couldn't speak, but he did, so much. They conveyed so many words and emotions. They turned lethal when David appeared next to me. We smelt of each
other, and Ellis could feel it. Ellis was going to explode. His eyes
darkened and turned pure gold. His Lycan, Lias, made an appearance, and atmosphere cri ppled everyone, including me. He slammed his fist against the table, making everyone jump in fear of him.
What do you think this is?” he growled.

It was another morning, and we were in an executive meeting. | noted Love’s chair was empty, and | glared at the da mn thing. She didn’t want to face me after our talk a few nights ago, but | was wrong when the door opened, and she walked in. A sense of serenity washed over me, but it quickly vanished when | smelled David on her, they were together. | was angry. A second later, David stood next to her. They both seemed out of breath and a little messy. | clenched my jaw and slammed my palm on the desk.

What do you think this is?” | growled, taking everyone even myself by surprise. Lias just took over. | fought him back for control and calmed my breath. | was enraged at the sight before me. | grit my teeth to stop me from cussing.

We are sorry, everyone, we got locked in the studio,” It was David who spoke. His voice was husky, and | doubted they were ‘locked in,’ L couldn’t help the twinge in my chest at the thought of what they were doing before they came. Despite the discussion we had and the coldness from Love, | still wanted her. | found her alluring.
‘You're losing control again,’ Jace’s voice rang in my head. | did that a lot lately — Lose control.
‘They weren't locked in! They were doing something sexual!’ | roared through the link to him.
‘It's none of your business, boss,’ he put pressure on the word boss. | knew he meant it was their business, and | shouldn’t get involved. ‘If they say they were locked in, that’s what happened then,’
| watched with anger as David pulled out a chair for Love to sit on, and he sat next to her. They smiled at each other, and a dark aura

Let us begin,” Michael said, and | nodded.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
| noticed all the department managers were apprehensive. They were stiff as the chilling aura surrounded the place. However, | didn’t do anything about it.
The company’s performance was excellent. | didn’t utter a word, only listening to the report. My eyes went to Love more times than | could count, and she ignored to meet my eyes.
The meeting ended two hours later, and | was the first to leave. Jace and Michael hurrying after me.
You should be pleased with this quarter’s performance. It’s better than the last,” Michael said. If only he knew what | was going through. It was Love fraternizing with David around the office building. It was so unprofessional.
Michael, isn’t there a policy against romantic relationships at work?” | asked, and he raised his brow in thought.
“They are. The romance between colleagues leaves room for problems,” he answered. | knew | was being a petty CEO right now, but
| couldn’t stand she was happy without me.
“Why does your department allow it, though,” | asked, pouring myself a glass of whiskey.
‘That’s inconsequential, come on,” Jace laughed.
“| don’t understand,” Michael looked dumbfounded,
Miss Chasia and Mr. Kofflin are having a romantic relationship. Shouldn't it be stopped before it starts to bring disruption in a place of work,” | stated. David had a high position, and he should lead by example.
Michael gaped at me, “Wait, you want me to stop their relationship?” he looked for Jace for help, but my beta wasn’t getting involved any
longer.
‘Isn’t one of your duties as HR employee relations? The VP and a department manager are important to the group, and they should lead by example,” z

“But-”
This is a place of work. Make sure they know that,” | said with
finality to my tone. | grabbed my suit jacket to leave the office when | received a phone call. It was my cousin, Melody Carter. | was going to ignore it, but she kept calling me. | answered it.
I'm busy,”
“is that any way to talk to your elder cousin?” she purred, and | rolled
my eyes.
‘What do you want? | can’t talk,”
“I sent you some pictures. Check them,” she said just as my phone beeped. My heart stopped when | saw the pictures of two kids, a boy and a girl. The boy looked identical to me.

My heart started to beat faster now and my lycan was erratic. | tried to ask what was wrong, but Lias didn’t respond.

Jace, see what Melody sent me,” my voice is barely above a whisper.
| can’t take my eyes off the picture Melody sent me. Michael peaks on my phone,
“The boy, oh lords. The resemblance to you is uncanny,”
Indeed. He had my eyes, hair, and features. What the f uck was this? Was this a dream? Jace was still in shock.
| called Melody back, but she wasn’t answering. She was punishing me for being rude to her earlier.
“Call Seumo,” | whispered. Seumo was the company’s executive driver and Melody’s husband of fifteen years.
| was pacing my office for ten minutes straight, my eyes fixated on the picture. These kids, they were siblings — | think.
So many questions bombarded my head.

Even the girl is a perfect mixture of you and Love,” Jace said. Now I’m noticing that... My eyes were mainly focused on the boy who uncannily resembled me. | didn’t look at the girl long, but Jace was right.
She looked like Love at this age, except her blonde hair was curly. The girl had exquisite curly hair, big blue eyes, a slim nose, and a toothy grin that could light up an entire room.
Seumo walked into the office reluctantly. ” Sir,” he bowed.
Where's your wife?” | asked immediately. He stayed silent for a moment. | could tell he was trying to mind-link her. He stopped and smiled awkwardly at me.
