Proclaiming Territory SETH'S "ARE YOU NOT BORED?" I glance at him with a shake of my head. He blew a loud breath then resumed reading the documents handed to him by his secretary, Jonas. Jonas is his Executive Secretary in the office while Clark is his Personal Secretary, Assistant, sometimes his Nanny too. I can't tell him that though, I'm sure he'll pout if I do and I promised Clark I wouldn't let Sun know we talked gossiped about him like that. Yep. It was Clark who proclaimed himself as Sun's Nanny. He was so proud too. I mean, there's nothing about it since he has always been Sun, the thing is, Sun dislikes the word Nanny to refer to Clark. I asked why but Clark just shrugged it off. Must be Sun's little secret. "I'm bored..." Sun complained. "Then finish your work quickly." "Easy for you to say. You're just watching movies there," I looked at him with raised brows, "should I help you?" He quickly nodded his head. I chuckle. "Sorry, I don't know about your work, Mister C.E.O." I grinned while he groaned. "It's not fair," he grumbled under his breath then placed the folder in front of his face, pretending that he's reading but I'm sure he's just making faces behind. "Take your time, CEO, in return I shall stay here and accompany you. Would you like some coffee... Sir?" "Seth..." he groaned and I burst out laughing. "Stop it." He hissed. "Okay, okay, calm down. Seriously though, want to drink or eat something?" He placed the folder down to look at me and sighs. "Yeah. Let's eat lunch together. You decide what you want to eat." I shake my head. There he go again. Spoiling me. "We'll eat whatever you want." He stared at me before he chuckles, "well then, let Jonas order food for us in the restaurant just beside the company. I regularly order my foods there." "Really?!" Ordering food for Sun! In his favorite restaurant! I want to order his food myself. But I might take a long time, Sun might starve if I go. Haaaah, maybe next time. "Let Jonas go with you," he said all of a sudden. I look at him, surprised but he's just smiling with his right hand place on the table supporting his chin. He winked at me, "your face says it all, my wife." I blushed and then looked away, "Meh," He just laughs and called for Jonas through the intercom. "You called for me, Sir?" "Yes. My wife will order lunch for us, please go with him and help him order my usual." Jonas glanced at me then smiled professionally, "I will, Sir." Jonas left to wait for me outside. I was confused why he has to wait so I tried following him out but, "Where are you going?" Sun asked. I turned to him then look at the door, "outside? To buy food?" I answered unsure. "I know. But why are you leaving now?" "Am I supposed to leave later?" "No, of course not." "Then when?" "Well, after?" "After what?" "After..." he cleared his throat, look at his side then scratches his temple, "after you kiss me?" "..." Ah. I heave a deep sigh. Why the hell... Why the hell is he so cute!!! URGH!!! "Thank you for your patronage!" I smiled, "thanks," Jonas opened the elevator for us. The elevator solely for Sun to use. To be honest, I don't know what to feel about Sun's wealth or him being a CEO. I knew he was rich but not to this extent... Well, it's not like I can change that. I'm just thankful that, unlike wealthy and powerful people, alphas, Sun is different. He's special. "I've been meaning to meet you, Mr. Clawstone." Jonas suddenly spoke with an embarrassed expression. "Me? Uh, why?" I don't think I'm someone famous so... why? "Ah! Please don't misunderstand! I heard from Butler Clark that Mr. Clawstone's wife is at home, Mr. Clawstone would always finish his work early because he said you were waiting." Then he chuckles, "he would subtly brag about having someone waiting for him at home, even in front of the Directors." My face heated up. What in the world is that man doing!? "It's as if he wants the Directors to know that they shouldn't waste his time." "Ahh..." I facepalmed. That was embarrassing. We should have a serious talk. Like, one on one. Jonas continued telling me stories of how proud Sun is and how he brags about having a wife when the elevator door opened. The top floor consists only of Sun's office, this floor's pantry, and the meeting room. "Please, Mr. Clawstone! We will listen to your demands and request, I'm begging you! We cannot lose more of our investors! If we do, our company is done for!!" Jonas and I exchanged looks when that loud and begging voice echoed around the floor. In front of Sun's office is a woman kneeling, beside her is the front desk officer of this floor and finally, in the doorway proudly stands is Sun. Looking down on the familiar woman with an expressionless face. That woman... Her name was Adelle, she was my former classmate. She was also there at the reunion and part of Jaxson's circle of friends. Wait. Don't tell me Sun — "I have informed your father, I personally called him and told him that we won't continue with the collaboration. My team has given every document pertaining to the reason why. As for your investors pulling out," Sun raised his brows at her, "it has nothing to do with me." "BUT THE INVESTORS TOLD US THAT IT WAS YOU WHO FORCED THEM!!" She barked angrily. Sun's forehead crease when he glared at her, "watch your tongue, Miss Molina. I invested in several movies under your management out of pity because your father is an elder of mine. He is someone I respected that's why despite the rumors surrounding your company after your brother took over, I still invested whenever your father begs me to. I've reached my limit, whether I invest or not or whether your investors pull out because of me or not... It has nothing to do with me. I suggest you watch how you run your mouth because if I want to, I can destroy that company you are so proud of." Sun noticed me, his intimidating aura and expression was immediately replaced by his charming smile. I was about to greet him when Adelle spoke. “T-then... I beg you...! Just once, please just once more, I beg you Mr, Clawstone! I will do anything! If you want me to warm your bed, your personal s*x slave... anything! Please, please, help us! Don’t pull out, invest in us! Me... I’m... I’m exceptional in the art of s*x! I can—” “— shut up.” Sun hissed while still looking at me, this time, he looked a little panicked. Jonas cleared his throat beside me. I blinked before I composed myself. What was that? I noticed that I’m clenching my hands tightly. “Hey," I greeted unexpectedly stiffly. "You..." Adelle is looking at me with her eyes wide. “What are you doing here?” She pointed me. I glanced at her before I just found myself handing Jonas the food we bought and linking my arms on Sun’s then pulling him closer. I look through my lashes, “I’m this man’s wife. So he doesn’t need someone to warm his bed. Ms. Adelle, please excuse us.” With that, I pulled Sun inside this office and slammed the door shut. “H-Hey—” I glared at him, “I... what did I just do?!” What have I done?! Did I just... to Adelle Molina? The Adelle Molina?! What was that attitude of mine back there?! Ahhhhh!!! I was panicking when Sun chuckles. “What?” I hissed. “I didn’t know you could be so possessive.” He said still chuckling. A-Ah. I’VE GONE MAAAAAD!! To be continued...
