It's already been two weeks since it happened. Luckily her monthly period came one week after she returns home. She can't tell or ask her mom about the abnormalities that is happening in her body. Afraid of losing them and afraid that she might scared them, she decided to keep it as a secret. But sadly, the image of that man keeps appearing in her dreams every night.
"Elijah, aren't you finished packing your clothes? You're gonna be late ." Her mom's came in to her room. "I'm done!" She smile at her and follow her out.Today is the day that she will going to Manila for her job training. Her mom, Mrs. Susanne Suarez already find an apartment for her to stay during her stay in there. "Don't ever wonder around especially at night! Do you understand?" Her father's caring voice get her attention.She winked at him and smile. Mr. Felix Suarez, her father who always tells her to be safe and don't forget to call if anything happens. How lucky she is to have these loving parents. "Yup! I understand!" She even salute him to show her respect.Her father an AWOL military. He chose to stopped working to take good care with her mom, because her mother got an accident when she was little. Well, that's what they told her. "En. Very good! And forget the mountain climbing while you're on the job training." He reminds her again.Well, Elijah doesn't want to go for mountain climbing so far. It's not because of her training but more on because of what happened. She's afraid that she might meet that man with tail again, even though he's handsome, he's still not human! "Got it! I'm leaving now. Please take good care you two. Don't forget to eat meals three times a day. And please! Try to make a baby brother for me!" She even stomped her feet to show them that she really wanted to have a siblings. "Enough with your request, you knew that we can't grant it so just leave." Her mom's jokingly pushed her out of the house. "What if?" She keeps insisting. "Tch! We will try three times a day too, so go now. We will start making it after you left." Her father.Elijah couldn't help but laugh at loud. She saw her mother blushing while punching her father. "That's good, Dad! I'll cheer on you once you succeeded." She have to shout because she's already at the gate. "Oh please just leave!"Her and her father both laugh together until she finally out of the gate. She have to take a bus to travel to Manila from Batangas. As far as she remember, her family actually from Manila. But they moved out from there and they bought a small land in Batangas and there they are now. "Bus terminal, Uncle." She asked the tricycle driver who stopped when he saw her.You have to travel with tricycle if it's just short distance. She doesn't allowed her father to sent her using his own tricycle to bus station because of her mom. She doesn't want her to be left alone even just a few minutes. "Are you going to Manila?" The man asked.Uncle is a common call for the middle aged man who you actually don't know the name. Grandma for old woman, and grandpa for old man its a common courtesy in the country. "Yes, uncle." "For a job?" The man seems to be friendly. "Yes, uncle. I'm going to do the job training." She excitedly answered. "Oh! Good luck for you. Your parents must be proud of you." "Hehe.. I will make them proud of me, uncle."The driver just nod his head as his answer, and after a ten minutes rides they finally arrived at the bus station. "Good thing that you aren't late for the second trip." The man said while receiving her fare. "Yeah.. Thank you uncle!" She waved her hand to say goodbye.The driver just smiled and leave to find his passenger again.When Elijah find her seat, she takes it and wait for the bus to move. She just waited for only 20 minutes and they finally start moving. Traveling for 4 hours is boring so she decided to take a nap. And when she open her eyes, she's already in Manila bus station. She called her Mom while getting not of the bus. "I'm in Manila now." "That's great, take good care okay? Do you remember the address I told you?" "Yeah, Pasig. Right?"Pasig City, one of the city near Manila. And also near to Frost Airlines that she's going to do her Job training. She's not going to work inside the plane, only in the main building that receives flight reservation. And actually, she's going to be a temporary personal assistant of the Director of the said company. "Don't forget what we told you about doing your job. Always... " always keep your patience long, and listen to what others advice and don't give attention to those who wanted to take me down." She recited it. "Very good." "I have to end the call now.. Call you again later. Love you both!" "We love you too. Bye!"She find a taxi who will send her to her apartment. When she arrived, the landlady greeted her and welcomed her. The apartment is clean and it's good for her. It's studio type with own shower room separated in comfort room. "I like it. " she said. "It's great that you like it." The landlady answered. "I thought you're not gonna come." "How can't I? I need a place to stay." She smiled at her. "Yeah!" The landlady seems to be friendly too. "Oh! Right! You should rest now. You have to be early tomorrow right? Your mom told me, Elijah."Elijah nodded while smiling. Her mom's really is the best. She knew what she really wanted. When she finally left alone, she put her things on the cabinet and take out her clothes that she's going to wear after taking a bath. But before taking a bath, she ordered her food.Manila international Airport, "What time will my temporary assistant arrived tomorrow? I don't wanna be late with my meeting schedule." Dwine Frost just arrived in Manila from Palawan.After the searching event last week that actually failed, he decided to return to Manila to do his postponed works. "I've hear that, she will be in your office before you arrived tomorrow, Sir." Joanne, His Secretary answered. "That's great if that's actually happened.."Elijah woke up at 4:30 in the next morning. She excitedly take her bath and and dressed up. At 5:30 she decided to leave her apartment and take a taxi to go to her job. She arrived at 6:20, and before going in, she went to the near store and bought her breakfast. She just waited outside the building to open while eating her breakfast. "Eating in front of my building?" Elijah jumped up out of surprise when she heard the voice behind her. She looked at the person who spoke. "Oh! God!" She withdrew her sight when she recognized the man. The person is no other than, the man with tail! And the man who took her virginity! What is he doing there? Wait, he said.. "Your building?" She looked at him again and even point her finger in the building. "Is it not mine?" The man frowned while he's putting his hands inside his pockets. Elijah gulped. If this is the owner of this building, then does it mean that.. He's her Boss?! The man she slept with is her boss?! But why does it l
Elijah blinked twice before realizing the situation. The dog can recognize the smell even you tried to mix it. And even he is far away, he can still smell the vanilla flavored candy that she's eating. But why does he have to lean closer just to ask her? What's in there in vanilla scent? "You mean, this candy?" She raised her hand that is holding the wrapper. Mr. Frost stare at her before looking at the wrapper in her hand. His eyes squinted a bit and withdrew himself from her. She finally let out a sigh of relief. He seems to hate vanilla? But why? "Am I not allowed to eat candies with vanilla flavor?" She can't helped but asked. The man look at her again and fix his necktie before answering her. "You can." He said. "Just don't litter around." "Yes sir." Her mind is still focusing on Vanilla. And a sudden recollection hit her again. She remember, Vanilla scent mixed with rose and orange. That is the scent that envelope them together with the sandal wood and mint. S
"What's wrong with you?" The deep and serious tone of his voice made her skip a beat. He looks scary now. "You're scaring her!" Sarah exclaimed. Sarah Marcos, a pure-blooded werewolf who is actually an Omega. She was told by her parents that she needed to be the Dwine mate. Because Dwine, is a dominant Alpha who is soon to be the King of the werewolf clan. And aside from that, he will also be to soon to be the owner of all the Frost company. "Come to me little girl, I'll help you." Sarah smiled at her and offered her hands too. Elijah, who wants to keep herself away from the person who actually caused her to be like that, grabbed the hands of the woman. She can now finally understand how that one-night stand happened. It was also because of that scent. The scent actually came from the dog. "Stand up slowly," The woman said with a kind voice. "Go back to your meeting. Leave her to me." She looked back at Dwine who was still frowning. And finally, after fixing his ne
"Here's your coat sir." Elijah brought the coat that her boss asked her to get. They are inside of one of the expensive restaurant in Manila. Her boss is meeting the foreign investors who just arrived yesterday according to the information that Joanna gave her. And a while ago, he asked her to get his coat from the car be he felt cold all of a sudden. She doesn't know if it was true or he does lie but she still followed him. "Put it on." He said. "Huh?" "I said, put it on. You seems feeling cold." Elijah rolled her eyes and let out a sigh. She followed his order because she thought, he really need the coat. But he want her to wear it? "But I don't feel cold?" Dwine averted her eyes and stand up instead. He take the coat from her hands and put it on to her. "I'm not blind." He said. Elijah couldn't read the mood. But when she saw the man eyes, she understood the situation a little. Her Boss wants to use her as a scapegoat. "Sorry, I'm indeed feeling cold
"Should I scream?" She didn't averted her eyes this time. Elijah want to stare to his pair of golden eyes. Dwine gulped and slowly withdrew himself and sit back to his seat. "We have to go to my last appointment later this afternoon. And I heard that the other management will be having a party tonight, and I am being invited." "Do I have to go with you too?" "Well, yes." "What should I prepare for you before we leave?" "Nothing much, I just need to change my suit." "Noted." The two remain silent until they reached the building of the company. Walking inside the building with her boss, she noticed something unusual. "Why does it seem like they are talking about me?" She frowned. "Hmm.. Maybe because, you're still wearing my coat?" Dwine looked at her with amusement in his eyes. Enjoying himself while watching Elijah being confused. Elijah immediately wear off the coat and hang it in her arm. First day of work, the gossip already spread. "Why did you remove
Elijah helped Joanna to prepare their food while Dwine is standing in the side of the table. Observing the angry girl who choose to do not talk. The situation is troubling him deep inside because it surprisingly affecting his entire system. "Sir, everything's ready. You can start eating now." Joanna snapped out his thoughts. "En." He nodded his head and looked to the angry cat. "Take your seat." Elijah is indeed hungry but her pride is on the line now. This man didn't apologize to her even her name is now ruined in the mind of other employees. And that is because of her boss! "What are you doing? I said take your seat, joined me for lunch." Dwine repeated his words but the girl didn't react at all so he got curious. What's wrong with her? He asked himself. "Excuse me sir, Miss Sarah is on her way up here. She said she'll join you for your lunch." Joanna entered the room and got out again after that. "Since your girlfriend is coming, I should take my leave now Sir
"Do we really need to go inside your room? You're just gonna show me your true form, can't you do it here?" "No." Dwine answered. "... For how long should we stay inside?" "Until I returned to normal. How long do you think will it take?" Dwine looked back at Elijah. "Oh.. alright." She's a bit nervous but she really wanted to know the truth about werewolves. And if she really one of them. After entering the room, Dwine started to remove his clothes. Elijah started to panic too.. What the?! He said, he will just show his true form! Not like this! "W-What are you doing Sir?" She stammered several times. "Showing you my true form.. You said you wanted to see me in my werewolf form." Dwine looks confused now. "B-But.. Why are you removing your clothes?" "If I don't remove this, it'll tore apart." He said. "Why? Are you thinking I'mma do something other than what we agreed? " No! Of course not! Haha.. I was just..." "Don't worry, I will not removed everyt
"Hello?."Dwine turned away to answer his phone, while Elijah run out of the room.Elijah feel the mixture of shame and self-loathing inside her chest and decided to go out of the building for now. Joanna saw her but because she is running, she didn't give her a time to call her name."Da*n it! why did I do that?! Why did I let that happen?! It's only in day one, but there's a lot that happened! Arghhh!" She pulled her hair because of shame and anger while she's inside of the elevator."What should I do now?!"She's was still thinking when the elevator stopped moving. The door opened and two staffs entered."She's the assistant, right?"She heard them talking about her but she didn't give a damn because her head is aching right now due to what happened."Hi, are you the new assistant of the President Frost, right?" The girl couldn't help but asked her."Why?" The tone of Elijah's voice become cold and sounds like she's angry so the two suddenly feel the hesitation to continue."That..
