The Were CEO's Secret

Chapter Fifty-Six - Level Unlocked.

Keon smirked. "Did you hear her? I feel Stephanie is finally connecting to me. That urge to kill a threat, it isn't human." Nathan tilted his head.

"Hey!" Stephanie waved her hands on his face. "Your eyes are blue, what's up? Reina could have seen that?"

Nathan exhaled. "Since I shifted, whenever I'm angry it just changes to blue. Keon would handle the anomaly. Don't worry." "Me?" Keon asked.

"Yes, you. Handle it." Nathan sank into the chair Reina stood up from.

Stephanie studied him cautiously, who was his last words too? The Keon he said was in his head? It fascinated her.

She leaned towards him. "So did you take pictures so I'd see what you shifted too?"

Nathan grinned. "I know what you're doing but no, I can't show you what I am. And I didn't take any pictures."

She withdrew with a pout. How did she think she can trick him? He's Mr. Cunny himself. "Fine."

She shifted her laptop to him so he'd help her fix the lagging, that's what he had come to do. He didn't do much and it began working perfectly. She frowned. "What did you do?"

Nathan patted her head. "Just clean your junk files from time to time and it won't lag."

"Yes, boss."

Nathan's body stiffened. "Really? You're calling me boss?"

"Aren't you my boss?" Stephanie glanced at him and then at the laptop. "So I call you boss."

Nathan ran his hands through his hair, not letting her attitude frustrate him. "We are basically dating now. You shouldn't be calling me boss."

Stephanie sighed and slapped him. "It's that not what you wanted? You could have asked anyone but you asked me. Isn't that what you wanted?" She sighed. Nathan hid his smile. "Well, we are still acting it, aren't we?"

Stephanie gave no response. He faced her, studying her facial emotions.

"But what if it becomes real?" Her eyes held so many emotions.

Nathan couldn't decipher what emotion she spoke with, he rolled his eyes. "And if it becomes real?"

"Well, I wanna work hard. Build my parents a house. Build an orphanage. Love is down my list. It's distracting, especially if it's with you." She shook her head. "I couldn't." Nathan leaned back on the chair. He grinned broadly. He had just unlocked another level. Stephanie just saw him as someone she could love. And even imagined them together. "You're a very industrious woman. Which ever man you choose to love would be lucky to have you." He rolled his chair around.

Stephanie smirked. "I know, right?" her eyes where on her laptop.

Nathan jumped from the chair and held unto the door knob. "Oh right, check your phone I think a message buzzed in earlier." Stephanie grabbed the phone and swiped in anticipation, she dropped the phone but luckily it landed on her a lap. "Damn! The five million dollars is coming already. No, no my bank would freak out!" she yelped, shaking on her chair. Any regrets she had for acting like his girlfriend flew out the window.

Nathan watched her with a smile. She glared at him, and his smile dropped. What did he do now? He had only innocently smiled.

"You'd hold the money for me till I upgrade my bank account. And if you run away to another country, I'd hunt you and kill you." She pointed. Nathan exhaled. She nearly scared him there. "Threats. Only threats. But yeah, I'd hold it for you. Bye. I'd be back later so we'd go for lunch." She nodded absentmindedly, staring at her phone. He smiled again and left her office.

Cherry got thrown to the wall before she knew what was going on. She staggered to her feet, her eyes turned yellow. "What do you want?"

Two boys rolled up their sleeves, grinning mischievously at her. She was at the senior block but no one seemed to be in class.

The boy charged at her, but she jumped over them with speed, they nearly crashed on the wall. She resisted the urge to shift, her injured leg ached. "I asked what you wanted with me?" The boys spared her no response. One aimed at her stomach, sending a punch to it but she was busy missing the one to her face that it hit her.

She tumbled back and landed on someone's feet. Pain emanated from her body, her facial muscles tensed and skin bunched in her eyes. With much strength, she looked up at the person she laid in mercy at their feet. It was a senior girl and she glared down at her. "Cherry, Cherry, Cherry, your cover has been blown, bitch!"

Cherry could tell she wasn't here to save her. She stopped looking like a pitiful puppy and rose to her feet, but the senior kicked her down again. "Bow when I speak to you." She dragged her hair. "It has come to my notice that you're Alpha Johnson's cousin. What a pity!"

Cherry balled her fists. This fight was due to Pure Silver Pack being at war with them? Wasn't it pack to pack? Why was she being beaten at school? "Coralline. You're breaking laws here. The war is pack by pack. This is at school!" She groaned. The senior dragged her hair more.

"Shut up bitch. That's for me to decide." She let her go. Cherry was then carried by the two boys.

Coral took off her ring and bracelets and Cherry knew what was coming, she'd be used for punching bag.

Taking the boys by surprise, she elbowed one's stomach and kicked the other to submission.

All the while, Coral didn't shake but calmly took off her jewelries. "So you are really a Delta as they say." She smirked. "Good, I've always dreamed to beat a Delta." Cherry sighed. "You won't beat this one, Coral. Being a Delta is no joke."

Cherry's claws flew from their places. A dirty cat fight was about to start. "So you're Beta Cole's sister. I wished to kill you myself." Coral laughed. "Well, now it's your chance."

Cherry noticed the two boys get on their feet but they didn't interfere and went back, giving them both space. She appreciated that. She flung her claws at Coral but the girl effortlessly dodged it and made a round kick to her head, throwing her to the ground. "Aww, I didn't even get to use my claws." Coral bent down to her. The two boys held Cherry down, one put a cloth to Cherry's mouth. Slowly and painfully, Cherry felt Coral draw lines down her body. She could only make muffled curse words and wriggle her body. "A Delta subdued!" Coral yelled victoriously and laughed. "Those marks are for your cousin hurting my brother."

Cherry sobbed. "Bastard. So you're the one fighting for your brother now?"

Coral frowned and slapped her. "Watch your mouth! I won't kill you now because someone else would. Start making amends." The boys let go of Cherry and followed Coral as she walked off. Cherry laid on the ground, staring at her blood on the floor.

One of the boys asked Coral. "Why don't you kill her already? Our packs are officially at war."

Coral shook her head. "I am not the one to kill her. Reina is." She replaced her jewelries on her hands. "I weakened her to be easy for Reina." The boys nodded understandingly. Coral turned to see Cherry one last time. Mockery smeared in her face. "Also my rank is Lead Warrior Wolf." Cherry attempted lifting herself from the ground but her hands failed her. How could a lead warrior wolf beat her? She was two ranks higher. "Oh, don't die now. Reina will kill you!" Coral laughed, along with the boys.

Cherry sighed, wishing they'd just leave. And who the hell was Reina? She exhaled, slowly feeling her wolf recharge.

She knew Coral would be far gone by the time she was recharged, not like she wanted to repeat such a humiliating fight with her anyway. "Damn you, Coral."
