The Alpha’s Human Mate

“Wait, what! Your mate works for my company?! How come?” Callum asked, surprised, before saying. “I don’t think I’ve seen her before. Maybe she’s a newbie.”

“You think I care if she’s working here or not?” Alex asked, getting annoyed every minute he looked at him. “I don’t care where she works or what she does; what I care about is what that girl is.”

“I’m sorry. You’re right, we should find out what that girl is.” Callum said, getting scared that he might do something to him if he angered him more. “But the girl I saw is human; there’s no way she could be a witch in disguise.”

“Oh really? So what else would be the perfect explanation for this? Hmm?” Alex asked. “I told you that girl is a witch; she must have used one of her spells to attract my wolf, and I’ll make sure she pays for trying to mess with me.”

“Calm down, Alex; you don’t have to take your anger out on me,” Callum said with his pouted lips.

But when he saw the glare Alex was giving him, he quickly apologized and said, “Wait, what if we ask Maya for a witch’s portion, the one that could reveal a witch in disguise?”

Alex scoffed. “Have you gone mad? Why would we ask Maya for a witch’s portion?” Maya is Alex’s younger sister, a very smart and beautiful werewolf with clear white skin and captivating blue eyes with which a guy could get lost in. She’s a big wolf with white fur, just like her mother. They are the only white wolves in their pack, which makes them unique. A lot of men, either humans or wolves, have asked for her hand in marriage, but she kept turning them down. Just like her brother, she also did not want a relationship.

Alex wouldn’t be surprised if her sister was seen with witch’s stuffs. After all, she loves mysteries a lot.

“She might have a witch friend who might help, so stop making a noise in my company, and let’s tell Maya to get it.” Callum said, Alex just sighed in frustration. b”Get your ass at my house tonight.” He said before walking out of his office.

She felt like her heart was going to jump out of her chest. She kept spacing out, and couldn’t even concentrate on her work.

Christina asked her what was wrong with her, but she told her nothing was wrong.

“The CEO won’t be seeing us today; he has rescheduled it.” Christina said to her, “Hmm, OK.” Ellie answered.

One time, she was thinking about Sam, and now she couldn’t get this man she saw out of her head. “Oh my goodness, why do I have to meet him? What will I do? How can he be my boss’s friend?” She kept thinking.

After work, she called Jasmine before leaving the company because she needed to talk to her. She got home and waited for her friend for some time before she finally arrived.

“Hey girl!” Jasmine said as soon as she entered.

Hey. She answered back. Noticing that she was looking moody, Jasmine asked, “Is there something wrong?”

“Jasmine, the guy from my one-night stand is… She said, stopping midway. She did not even know how to explain it to her friend.

“The guy from your one-night stand is what? Tell me.” Jasmine asked, wondering why she stopped midway, especially with the way she was fidgeting.

She sighed before continuing. “I saw him today. He’s my boss’s friend, Jasmine. And not only that, he’s the CEO of Warren Corporation.” She explained.

“Wait, what?! The CEO of Warren Corporation? Do you mean that rich, handsome hunk?” Jasmine asked, being surprised and happy.

“That’s not what this is about, Jasmine. I told you he’s my boss’s friend!” Ellie said. She was getting pissed at her friend’s words.

“Ok, fine, I’m sorry. Did you guys talk? Did he say something to you?”

“Not really, but he was acting weird. He just asked me what I was doing there, but before I could answer him, his friend came in.” Ellie explained.

“I see. I don’t think you should be scared, Ellie. If you don’t want to talk to him, then don’t. And if he tries to talk to you, you can either pretend not to know him or just tell him that it was just a night stand and nothing more.” Jasmine said. Ellie swallowed a hard spit before asking. “Do you think pretending could work?”

“Well, it doesn’t always work that way, but you can go for the second choice.” She said, smiling. “If he asks you out, you should definitely go out with him.” But Ellie just glared at her.

She wanted to talk about Sam but decided to leave that matter. She knew that her friend was definitely going to scold her for feeling that way, but she couldn’t help herself, especially now that she had to think of a way to face the man she had a nightstand with. “My mom is definitely going to marry me off if she finds out about this,” Ellie said, staring at the ceiling, while Jasmine just laughed.

Hey Brother! Maya greeted as soon as she entered the house. She looked at her brother sitting on the couch and also at Callum, who was sitting opposite him. “Hey, Callum. You’re also here.”

“Yeah, even though you don’t have time for us again,” Callum teased with a smile, which Maya also smiled back. “Well, I’ve just been so busy, but here I am.”This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

They kept talking for some time, until Alex finally got tired of their talking. He cut Maya off and said, “Can we cut off all this part and get straight to the point?” The two of them stopped talking immediately, to which Callum also cleared his throat before he started talking.

“We want you to give us a witch’s potion, one that reveals a disguise.” Callum said, but was surprised to see the girl burst out into laughter.

“A witch’s potion? Why do you think I have a witch’s potion? Do I look like a witch?” She asked, still laughing.

She continued laughing but stopped when her brother interfered. “We know you can get it, Maya, and we need it before tomorrow. I’m sure you don’t want Mother to find out about you getting involved with a witch.”

Maya looked at him and frowned. “Do you really need to threaten people before you collect something from them? Fine, I’ll get it for you, but only after you tell me what you want to use it for. Who is this person disguising?”

“It’s none of your business; just do what I asked of you,” Alex said, to which Maya only pout her lips. She looked at Callum, hoping she would get an answer, but he only smiled at her.

“I’ll tell the driver to drop you home.” Alex said.

“So now, you’re chasing me out of the house.” She sulked before standing up to leave; she knew that her brother wouldn’t allow her to sleep over; he liked being home alone by himself; even his maids do come around whenever he’s not home.

“Bye Maya.” Callum said, only to receive a hard glare from the man who was still sitting on the couch.
