The Alpha’s Human Mate

He entered the room; he didn’t have to look around to find her because his wolf was already calling out to her. “Mate.” Trying to control his wolf before it would get out of hand, he quickly went to take a seat, but kept looking towards her side.

They were all surprised to see the CEO of Warren Corporation. The ladies in the room did all they could to flash him their best smiles, but his eyes were only on her, watching her every move like he was about to pounce on her any minute.

“Hey everyone! I’m really happy to be among you all this night to welcome you to Stewart Corporation.” Callum said, smiling at them. “What we’re doing today is just getting to know each other and have fun before we get into something stressful and boring.” He continued.

She sat there feeling so nervous, she couldn’t even control the sweat running down her face or the one building up in her palms. She did not understand why she was so scared of a man she hadn’t even talked to before. Could it be because of what people say about him?

She got out of her thoughts when she heard Christina say. “I can’t believe I’m right before two Adonis; I think I’m going to faint any second from now.” Christina said, smiling at her, but Ellie only gave her a weak smile.

Callum looked towards Ellie’s side before looking away. “Why don’t we start by introducing ourselves? Hmm, let’s start with you.” He pointed towards a girl in the crowd. They all introduced themselves, and when it was Christina’s turn, he noticed that the girl had a baby face, and she was smiling more than usual at him. “She’s cute, but totally not my type.”

“The next lady, please.” Ellie noticed that all eyes were directed to her; even the guy she was trying to avoid was looking at her intently. That was when she realized that it was her turn to introduce herself. She stood up slowly, making sure she didn’t look toward his side. “My name is Ellie Loren, sales department.” She introduced herself briefly before sitting down.

Everywhere was quiet, and she could still feel their eyes on her like she had done something shameful. Then suddenly, Callum stole their attention back by saying: “That was a brief one, but nice name.” He laughed, and the people in the room also laughed with him.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

The employees were expecting Callum to say something about Alex, who was just sipping his drink. When they saw that he was not going to say anything about him, Sam’s girlfriend, Mandy, decided to ask him instead. “We see that the CEO of Warren Corporation is also here. Is he also here to welcome us?”

Callum smiled before talking. You all know how good our friendship is, so… Before he could finish his words, Alex cut him off. “I won’t say I’m here for this welcoming party. I came here for something else.” He said, staring deep into Ellie’s eyes.

Noticing the seriousness on his face and the tension on the girl’s face, Callum suddenly burst out into laughter to clear the air. “That was so funny, wasn’t it?” He asked, looking at his employees. They also laughed with him, even Christina.

She took the drink on the table and drank it in one gulp. Alex and Callum looked towards her side and noticed that she had drunk the alcohol that had the witch’s potion. Then suddenly, the light got dimmer, and what the people could hear was only Callum’s voice. “There’s no party without dancing.”

The music was played, and everyone went to the dance floor. Christina also stood up and went to the floor, leaving her friend all alone.

She also wanted to stand up, but she felt someone suddenly grab her hand and dragged her out of the club.

She was so scared when she noticed that it was the man she was avoiding-so scared that she couldn’t stop him from dragging her further.

As soon as the light was dimmed, he stood up immediately and went towards her. His wolf was in so much joy when he grabbed her hand and pulled her towards the entrance.

He took her to where his car was, where no one could see them. He finally let go of her hand, moved towards her, and looked at her closely. He could tell the girl was so scared; who wouldn’t be?

“Taking so long to transform, huh?” He smirked. She didn’t know what to do; what her mind was telling her was to run, but she couldn’t even move her leg. She still did not understand why she was so scared of him. Could it be because of the nightstand or something else?

She moved backward a bit, but Alex turned her around immediately and pinned her against the car. “Where do you think you’re going?” He asked, smirking at her.

Ellie was so scared, she could even hear her own heartbeat. “Please let me go.”

“Not so fast.” He said, putting his hands into his pocket; he bought out a bottle, opened it, and poured the contents on her face. Immediately after he poured it, Ellie pushed him away with all her strength; she was so scared, thinking it was acid. She burst out suddenly. “How dare you?! How dare you try to assault me?!”

She was so angry, but the man in front of her didn’t care. He asked. “What? You did not transform?”

“Transform? What the hell are you saying? After you poured a liquid on me, that’s the only thing you could say?” She asked, raising her voice in anger. She did not let him say a word before she talked again. “Listen, if this is about that night, then I must tell you, it’s nothing but a mistake. So if you try to perform this rubbish with me again, I will have no choice but to get you arrested. I hope you get that. Good day.” She said, leaving in a hurry before he could say a word. She left and stopped a cab, making sure not to look back at the man. “You did well, Ellie.” She said to herself,.

“Rubbish?” He scoffed. How come she did not transform? He thought. He turned to the man standing behind him. “Keep an eye on that girl, and keep me updated on her every move.”

Yes sir. The man replied.
