The Magnetic Alpha 09 Education
Becca.I gave a loud sigh of relief as I opened the door to our new home and dropped my bags on the side table. Of course my little madam heard it and she took me up on it.“Why that sigh Mum? Was the work too much for your small shoulder?” She asked with a serious gaze and I gave a small laugh even as I rolled my eyes towards the ceiling.“No baby, my new job is cool, but that does not mean I am not glad to be home. Sitting all day in a spot ain’t really my thing.” I confessed as I moved towards the kitchen to wash my hands and make us some quick meals.The twins followed behind and I know more questions are coming.“Well, we did not have that problem. We had lots of fun.” My son enlightened me, as if it was not obvious.Really, I almost felt embarrassed today at the way my kids kept telling everyone at work that they had a good time. You would think I derived them from fun and plays at home.But yea, I know. In London, it was only me for company except when they were in school and I
The Magnetic Alpha 10 Same Man
Becca.Or so I thought! Until I got invited to the Boss’s office the following morning for a meet and greet and I saw that the evil man was none other than my new boss.Fitting! For a minute, I was so angry I thought of resigning right there and then just to spite this man, but I saw the glint in his eyes after the surprise left his eyes and I knew he could guess at my thought and was in fact expecting it.Well, I ain’t ready to give this man any more satisfaction concerning me and my children. Allowing my long lashes to fall over my eyes as a shield, I glanced at the man with all shades of professionalism.I have met the evil man and put him in his place.Now, it is time to meet my boss. This man right here is another person to me, as far as I am concerned I had not met him before.“Nice to meet you, Mr. Fernandez.” I responded to his first question but it was obvious from my tone that nothing about him was nice at all. Not where I was concerned.‘Obviously I’m much worse at preten
The Magnetic Alpha 11 Apology Note
Becca.The next morning, I left my kids having their lunch in the staff kitchen with the beautiful accountant as I made my way to my office.To my greatest surprise, I found some well arranged flowers on my table. Wondering where it came from and knowing full well that there was no one I knew who should be sending me such, I pressed for the intercom on my table, calling for my assistant.“Hi Tracy! Can you come in for a minute please?” I requested and after an affirmation, I ended the call to wait patiently with a little frown of concentration.Soon, Tracy walked in and I pointed to the beautiful petals on my desk.“I am assuming this was a mistake, right? Can you please find the owner?” I asked softly, by now, distracted by the work on my table. I immediately stopped what I was searching for as my gaze went to hers in surprise reaction to her response.“What did you say?” I asked again. Wondering if I heard correctly.“I said there is no mistake, Ms. Summer. The beautiful flowers be
The Magnetic Alpha 12 The Explanation
Becca. It was a relief to leave the workplace behind that evening as I drove myself and the kid home. The major part of my mind had been on those flowers and notes, worried that Christos Fernandez might show up or worse, call for me. But it seems the man did not care whether I acknowledged his gifts or not, which of course was a relief. Probably he was just doing it to clear his conscience. ‘Or maybe to make sure his new Head of Designs does not resign suddenly.’ The part of me who never trusts people fully thought sardonically, wondering if the man has a conscience to speak of. Well, conscience or not, I am glad the man is keeping to his space. When it comes to men, I would rather dine with a snake, than do anything with them. “Mum, you have an incoming call on your mobile.” My daughter called loudly from the back seat and without taking my eyes from the road, I passed my bag to her. “Check who is calling, my dear.” I said, totally forgetting the note I kept in my purse earli
The Magnetic Alpha 13 Handsome Devil
Becca.Really! My kids could have asked all these on our way home. Why wait till now when I will have to explain the incident to the ever curious Cindy! ‘I could use my time for something better.’ I thought wryly even as I weighed the option of evading her curiosity.“Don’t even try it, girl, out with it.” She commanded, as if she could read my mind. The witch!Knowing it’s better it comes from me than the twins, I quickly sketched over the incident as I gave the details of it.Nodding like a cat whose nose is in a jar of ice cream, my friend listened attentively. The annoying curious little soul.‘Really, can’t she pretend she was not enjoying this? It’s shameless how some people love juicy stories, especially when it has to do with one’s boss.’ I thought in disgruntlement. “Oh wow, that’s so funny. I wish I was there to see your face when you found out he was your boss.” My friend finally laughed, obviously enjoying my misery.After a while, she noticed I was not laughing along an
The Magnetic Alpha 14 The Surprise
Becca.“You mean, the CEO of Fernandez Construction was so idle, you happen to see him strolling down the office’s hall way, hmm?” I asked wryly, thinking of how I had not set my eyes on the man since I left his office a few days back.According to the office gossip, aside from his top Secretary and his deputy, you might not see the owner of the company for months. He rarely comes to our side of the building and he has a private lift for his use.So I’m sure something must have happened to make my children meet him.“I’m waiting, guys.” I prompted, when it seemed there would be no response as they kept watching for my expression.“We went to his office, Mum.” My son blurted out and I was glad I was already seated; else I could not be sure of my stance at that moment.“You did what?” It was not until I saw the look of shock on their faces that I realised I had asked with a little shout.“Relax, Mum, it was a friendly visit, you ain’t gonna lose your job or something.” Considering my jo
The Magnetic Alpha 15 Unexpected Visit.
Christos.‘What the heck!’ I thought with a growl, while silently commanding my wolf to shut the hell up with that unappreciated laughter.“Surprised to see us?” The female muffin drawls and I threw her a disdainful look. They are obviously pleased with themselves.“What are you little muffins doing here and how did you get inside my office without my secretary noticing your presence?” I asked with a forced smile, unwilling to show my perplexity.Had their mother sent them here? After ignoring my flowers and show of peace, is she now trying to use her kids against me?I squinted at the two muffins but just when I opened my mouth to ask directly, the boy preempted me.“If you are thinking our mum sent us, you are thinking wrongly. It is our decision to come pay you a visit and she knows nothing about it.” He said casually and by now, I could no longer hide my surprise.‘Apart from being exceptionally beautiful, can they also read minds?’ I questioned silently and my wolf chuckled! The
The Magnetic Alpha 16 Second Apology
Christos.Allowing myself to be distracted, I watched the twins as they looked everywhere but my face.‘Hmmm, it seemed I finally got to them.’ I thought with some satisfaction even as I allowed the tension to grow.“What condition do you have, Mr. Fernandez?” The boy finally asked again, unwilling to continue with the waiting game probably.“Wait a minute, before I state my condition, how do you even find out my name and my office? And yes, I know you saw the note but my name was not written on it, so I am curious okay?” I finally recognised one of the things baffling my mind since they came in.I watched in amusement as the twins glanced at each other guiltily. I folded my arms across my chest to wait patiently. I have the time.“Hmm—aha--aha, the thing is we have so many friends already in this building and we have a way of finding out things.” The little girl confessed shyly.“And these friends gave you the information about me?” Wondering who among my staff was chatty enough to d
