1681 Words
Savanna I stroll into the spectacular tall building and scan my ID before making my way towards the elevator. I will sometimes close my eyes just to remember where I'm going, because this is my first time of entering into such a magnificent building, and my first time of coming here. Sometimes, Alice's memories are vivid to me and most of the times, it would be vague. I need a a lot of concentration sometimes to remember my direction. Like right now, I know that I need to take this elevator to.... to.. to the... Sigh, I have forgotten. So I closed my eyes and tried to remember the number of the floor that I'm going to, but it seems that someone has another plan for me. "Hey, Alice" I heard someone call before throwing their hand around my neck. I frown immediately and tilt my head to the side to get a glimpse of the concentration intruder. I moved slightly away from her because I don't like the way she was just all over me, it felt weird. Even though I'm not into men, I'm definitely not into ladies too. Oh, man. She is a very beautiful young lady, long and slender legs, long brown hair that was pulled back into a ponytail. She was putting on a peach colored skirt with white blouse. Her slim body and gorgeous face is striking. But I don't think I want to continue any left over friends, I rolled my eyes inwardly. "Hey, don't looked at me that way. I have been trying to communicate with you through the mind link, but can't get through. Did you actually block me from mind linking you?" Can someone help me out here? What the hell is she blabbing about? I just stared at her speechlessly, because I don't want to start asking questions that will look suspicious. "What is your name again?" I quietly asked, a deciving smile on my face like I was playing while I'm actually serious. "Are you being serious right now, Alice?" She pouted, feigning hurt. But I slapped myself when I quickly realized that she was also putting on an ID, why didn't I think of that? "Never mind, Lucy. Why are you so excited this morning?" I pretend to start a conversation. While we strolled into the elevator that had open with a ding sound. "Of course I have to be excited since Alpha Roderick is showing up in person today. Even you, his secretary doesn't know this fact" She bragged, feeling so excitedly. "So what's so special about this your Alpha Roderick?" I asked, slightly uninterested. "Don't let any of the pack members or even Alpha Roderick himself to hear you say that. You're disrespecting our Alpha by saying that" She warned seriously. I just stared at her with no comments at all, what could I possibly say, when she has abandoned me in an unknown road. I just sighed and felt bored with all her confusing words. Alpha, mate, pack members, mind link.... whatever! "I know you're not excited like me because you know he isn't your mate. But let me tell you something, Alice. We unmated wolves in the pack needs to have fun till the day we finally found our mate. Like me, I don't mind having a one night stand with our sexy and godlike Alpha even though I know that he won't be my mate" She vomited proudly. While I unknowingly laughed out loud. Don't mind me, she is just so funny while saying this with her expression as if she was in a bedroom with the so called Alpha. I didn't want a left over friend, but on a second thought, I can manage Lucy because of her jovial character. She made me laugh genuinely for the first time in years. But, what the hell does she mean by wolves? According to what she said now, a mate does sounds like a partner to me. Well, I'm not into that. Any form of commitment is not for me because I have seen so many handsome men that ends up being a jerk, a rapist and an abuser. That's why I learned to conquer them and not fall for them. "Good for you you, Lucy, but I don't like one night stand, neither do I like a mate too. So-" "Alice, I know you're saying this because of the way your brother has been abusing you" Before I could finish, she interrupted me. Shocking me with her words. My brows creases in confusion, my eyes narrowed. I never expected to hear that from her. So she knows about all the abuse that Alice had been receiving from her brother? "I'm only happy today because you look different and more brighter. But you don't have to pin it on everyman, ok? What am I even saying, when you meet your mate, you won't even be able to resist them" She completed her words. I looked down as my eyes flickered to the buttons on the elevator. She had pressed on 35 and 50, so I want to know where exactly is my floor since my borrowed memories has refused to function properly. "What floor are we getting off?" I quickly threw the mind bugging question at her while she was still carried away. "As if you don't know that 50 is where our Alpha's floor is located even though he doesn't come here most of the time" "Ohh" The elevator stopped at the fifteenth floor and open and then some people joined us. I sighed in relief. No more having meaningless conversation with this new friend. "Good luck, Alice. And please unblock me so I can communicate with you through mind link" Lucy whisper to me as she got to her floor and the elevator opened for her. I nodded at her even though I was totally clueless. Does she mean a chatting app or something? Is there a chatting app called mind link? I turn on the screen of my phone as I checked for the app. After searching thoroughly, I didn't find any app that's called mind link. So I just shake my head and turn off the screen of my phone. I think that lady is crazy! After what felt like eternity, I finally got to my long anticipated destination. And by then, it was only me that's left in the elevator. I slowly stroll out from the elevator, taking a good view of my surroundings. The whole place looks so beautiful and dazzling. I saw a hallway that's directly facing the elevator and walked through it. And then I saw another hallway by my left and it took me to an open space. I looked to my right and saw a door, there's a desk few meters away from the door, I guess that's my position. And yes, it is according to my vague memory. I walk over to it and settled down. Then everything started looking familiar to me once again. Yes, the memories are coming back. Let's do some work and test how it feels to do a normal work. Few minutes into my simple work, I heard footsteps approaching me. I look up to see two handsome men walk into the spacious space. Of course, one looks more handsome, elegant and powerful than the other. From my memories, I know that the one that appears to be powerful is my Boss. What a handsome Boss. His face looks so cold like an iceberg, but he looks so attractive and stunning even at that with his well defined features. His face looks like something that was sculpted, his shoulders broad and the expensive ash colored suit on his well built and tall frame looks more better on his body. This is clearly a man to die for. And even though it's not my thing, I felt a strange and undeniable feeling towards him. I was drawn to him and I unknowingly felt like grabbing him by the collar of that suit, running my tongue all over him before finally capturing that his full lips into my mouth! What the hell? I have never felt this way for anyone before! My eyes finally settled in his icy grey irises, that suddenly darkened like a void and froze momentarily before regaining myself. The look in his eyes depicted exactly what I'm feeling for him right now; want and desire was vivid in his eyes. I think there's a mistake here, so I quickly averted my gaze and looked back at my computer. Things are not supposed to go this direction. But a growl escaped his mouth and I widened my eyes in shock. Why is he also making that same sound as Mason? "Mate" He growled once again and in one stride, he has rounded the desk to stand before me. He tried to touch me, but I quickly stood up and became at alert as I took some steps away from him. I felt myself being drawn to him even more by an invisible force. There was an irresistible scent wafting off him, maybe it's his cologne. It's intoxicating and overwhelming. Our close proximity made it more hard to resist, but I tried to ignore it. I'm not someone that gives in to rubbish immediately. That I feel something ridiculous for him doesn't mean that he should jump on me. "Uhm... What are you doing?" I questioned warily, while glaring at him. I felt hurt flash in his eyes but didn't give a damn. "You're my mate!" He said and I was beyond shocked once again. This made my definition of mate according to Lucy's blabbing to change. I mean, how do you determine your partner in such a ridiculous way? "Are you not happy that I'm your mate?" He asked, with a pain filled voice. "I'm sorry, you've got the wrong person. What exactly is mate?" I felt like it was high time that I find out the real meaning of mate that everyone has been talking about.
