CEO's Runaway Mate and Her Cubs
«You're right,» Roxy said. «I can't do that. I can't fire the girls because they're pack members. It's also correct that Nate insisted on having you work here.»
Lara nodded, sighing again. She screwed such a good chance for her pups. She would talk with Nate later, and they might find a solution together.
But she didn't know how to protect her cubs from the harsh reality.
«The position you're going to take does not depend on that,» Roxy added. «You were sent to sales because it's the department where wolves don't show their nature. And now you went to secretarial because your previous experiences showed you could do it without much hassle and because it's a fast way to learn how the company works. We were going to find your position by trial and error, not asking anyone to pull some strings. Also, this is a pack! Recommendations work a little differently. We need an environment where everyone knows their place. If two wolves don't work well together, we move one of them to another department. We've strived to create the structure you see now. This is not just a working place but our second home. Things like hooking up with a manager or pulling strings have no value.»
«I see,» Lara murmured.
«You can say this is a small country inside a building. If you work here, you're part of the pack as much as the girls. They can't treat you like that just because they're jealous!»
«Jealous?»
Roxy bit her tongue, wondering how to explain that slip.
«Jealous, curious... Who knows? They can't treat you like this either way. Even if they think you're an outsider: because you are not.»
«What do you mean? I am not a wolf, Roxy.»
«No, but you're one of us now, and we tend to be pretty possessive. You better get used to it before people start glaring at other outsiders approaching you. One day, they'll accept you fully, I promise!»
«But... It doesn't make sense! I'm a stranger.»
«Let's wait and see. For now, we shall find you a new place, right? The secretarial department won't do... I might as well send you back to sales at this point. I don't think there will be complaints...»
«Complaints from whom? Samantha?»
«Ah, no, she won't definitely complain. She's in such a mood right now. I guess she had a blissful night,» Roxy chuckled.
The scent of a male wolf could be sensed even after Samantha had a shower. No one said anything out loud, so she might not have noticed, but her partner had put all his efforts into marking her.
«Oh, that...» Lara muttered, wincing. She became silent, all of a sudden, but Roxy was too busy thinking to notice.
«What have you done till now?» Roxy inquired.
«Mostly ordered documents. In both departments.»
«Okay, then... Let's see. The CEO's office has a separate secretarial team. They take care of his schedule, help him with trivial stuff... They should prepare tea and coffee as well, but they end up being too busy. They're understaffed, so a pair of extra hands will certainly help. Also, not one of them will be mean. They don't have time to be mean.»
«The CEO?» Lara murmured, widening her eyes.
It was a signal enough for Roxy. Lara had no clue about the structure of the company. Not only she didn't know who Nate was. She didn't even have a clue what kind of work he did.
She just assumed he was somewhat relevant. Only a blind person wouldn't see that, by the way. He was too charming to be just a random employee. And he liked expensive stuff; who could afford tailor-made suits to wear every day? A penthouse in the centre of the city?
The company was doing so well that Nate could allow himself such luxuries even after splitting the profit with the rest of the pack.
He was the Alpha, but his cut was not more than a third. That was the kind of businessman he was.
«Yes, the CEO,» Roxy said. «Any issues?»
«But... But isn't he the big boss? Jaden told me something about Alphas and Betas... So... Isn't your CEO the Alpha?»
«He pretty much is.»
Lara widened her eyes in fear. Roxy shook her head at that show.
«Are you afraid, perhaps?»
«Isn't the Alpha the most powerful among you?» she inquired. «I really know nothing about it.»
«He is. The most powerful and the only one who can guide us.»
Roxy took Lara's hand and pressed it between hers.
«But he is not a devil. Just a wolf.»
In the end, that particular wolf wouldn't let anything happen to Lara.
«Also, you have your back covered, Lara. Nate wouldn't allow anything to happen to you!»
Roxy considered whether to add he would protect her even from the Alpha, but she chose not to. It was better to avoid explicitly lying.
In the future, she could always say there was a misunderstanding if she never mentioned Nate being or not being the Alpha.
Lara would have found out about it sooner or later and, judging from the events, it wouldn't have taken too much.
Roxy would have convinced Alpha Nate to admit his position before things went even more out of control. Then, the happy family could move to live together, and their pack could have an Alpha female.
It was time to take a vacation from keeping peace in that place.
The only obstacle on the way was making the Alpha admit his mistakes. If he understood how Lara felt and thought, he would have figured how to woo her better.
Somehow, it was weird that they weren't yet together. Roxy couldn't understand how two mates could resist each other for as long as two weeks!
Human hearts were truly complicated, but that woman lived with two wolf pups. Her maternal instinct should have made her learn a thing or two, right?
