Chapters

Chapter 1

To complete my mission of winning over the tragic second male lead, Charles Sawyer, I exchange all my system points to help him rise and become the richest man in Broxia.

All that is left is for him to propose to me, and the mission will be complete.

When the innocent-looking female lead, Natalia Leigh, causes the company to lose tens of millions of dollars due to a mistake, I simply fire her according to company rules. Unexpectedly, this causes Charles to lose his temper at me in public.

Right in front of the entire company, he rebukes me, "Melissa McBride! Stop using work as an excuse to vent at Natalia just because you're jealous! I've seen through your little scheme to win me over!"

To punish me for supposedly bullying Natalia, he bids aggressively and wins a priceless piece of jewelry at an astronomical price a few days later at a charity auction.

Not only does he personally present it to Natalia, but he even drops to one knee and proposes to her in front of all the guests.

When he looks at me, he says mockingly, "Melissa, as long as I refuse, your mission is destined to fail."

He is convinced that he has absolute control over me.

But he does not know that once the mission fails, my system activates a return function. When that happens, every advantage I once gave him will be returned to me with a single command.

I never thought Charles Sawyer would embarrass me like that in front of the entire company.

The moment the words left his mouth, the whole office went silent.

Every pair of eyes locked onto me.

Natalia Leigh, who was standing next to Charles, looked like a terrified little rabbit. Tears were brimming in her eyes as she dove into his arms.

"Charles, it's all my fault. I messed up the contract and caused such a huge loss for the company. I'll resign."

Charles gently stroked her hair, speaking tenderly in a way I'd never heard from him before. "It's just a few million in sales. If we lost it, so be it. Is it worth crying over?"

Natalia looked up at him. Her admiration was practically spilling out of her eyes.

My longtime assistant couldn't hold back anymore. "Mr. Sawyer! Back when we were just starting out, and money was tight, Ms. McBride used her own savings to get the company off the ground!

"She worked herself to the point of intestinal bleeding just to land clients for you, and she didn't even tell you she was sick! Is this how you repay her?"

Charles let out a laugh. His gaze was icy as it swept over me. "Repay her? Don't be a fool. Everything she did was only because it benefited her. Simple as that."

My chest sank like a stone. He was right. I did benefit from him.

At first, I had approached him to complete a mission.

However, then, I actually fell for him. I risked everything, trading all my points just to help him go from a broke kid to the richest man in Broxia.

A year ago, the moment he found out I was taking on missions, everything I had done suddenly seemed deliberate and calculated to him.

Lately, he had been mocking me at every turn.

Now, watching him pamper Natalia like that hurt so much that I could barely feel anything.

Without thinking, I yanked my badge from around my neck and slammed it onto his desk.

"Mr. Sawyer's right. Someone has to take responsibility for mistakes at work. If Natalia won't resign, then I will."

Charles froze for a moment, then smirked coldly. "Melissa McBride, what game are you trying to play now? Is this some kind of 'push-and-pull' trick?"

I didn't answer. I just turned and left.

Over the years of fully supporting Charles, I hadn't even bought a car, so all I could do was grab a cab home while carrying my box of stuff.

It was pouring, and I didn't have an umbrella. I trudged through the rain, soaked to the bone.

Just then, a sports car shot past me, spraying filthy water all over my clothes.

The window rolled down slowly, and Charles' handsome but icy profile came into view.

Natalia was sitting in the passenger seat. There was a slightly mocking smile on her lips.

"Melissa, you're 30 years old, and you don't have any savings. Yet you quit? You'll be left with absolutely nothing," Charles said. His voice was dripping with sarcasm.

Warning: This book contains a large number of very hot adult scenes! "Look at the state of you, my little she-wolf," his voice was low and full of menace, like sandpaper scraping across my nerves. "You got this wet just from that?" Then he pressed a hard kiss to my knuckles. Fuck! His rough tongue slid across my slender finger bones, tasting the salty sweat and fear on my skin. A violent tremor shot through my whole body. A moan I couldn't suppress slipped from between my lips. "Ah. Sebastian." I felt my thighs rubbing together on their own, that damn traitorous movement making my pussy clench so tight I nearly came. Yes, that's it, you desperate little bitch. I cursed myself in my mind. He flipped my hand over, his thumb pressing hard-almost punishingly-into the sensitive skin on the inside of my wrist. My pulse pounded there beneath his palm like it was going mad. "This is beating so hard," he whispered, his breath hot against my skin, "is it beating for me, Seraphina? Tell me." Then he took one of my fingers into his damn hot, wet mouth. Oh God. His rough tongue swirled, rubbed, scraped along the skin of my finger, warm saliva soaking every inch. And his eyes never left me-fixing on me like a beast locking onto prey. He sucked softly at first, then suddenly with force. That rhythm. Fuck, he was fucking my finger with his mouth. "Are you using this to fuck my mouth, Seraphina?" He let my finger go with a filthy pop, seeing straight through my thoughts. "Imagine this is my cock. Does it feel good, you filthy little she-wolf?" My back arched uncontrollably, like the lowest kind of whore silently inviting him. A broken, shameful whimper escaped my throat. "Good. so good." My scent thickened, wild floral heat and lust filling the air, swallowing the last of my reason. I could feel the terrifying restraint in his body cracking apart. He wanted to hear me moan his name as I came. He wanted to bury himself inside my soaked, empty heat until I could feel nothing except his violent thrusts. He moved to my middle finger, giving it the same obscene, thorough attention. His tongue circled wickedly at the base, then pushed deep, sucking hard as if tasting the sweetest honey. Fuck! My hips jerked upward without control. My other hand dug into the carpet, knuckles white, vision dissolving in the storm of desire swallowing me whole. "I need you. to fill my pussy, Sebastian." -- I grew up as a human in a wolf pack, but ironically, I ended up becoming the mate of the pack's Alpha. I thought I would fit perfectly into the wolves' world-until the day I caught my Alpha mate tangled with another she-wolf in the back seat of a car. With trembling hands, I tricked him into signing the divorce papers-silently swearing revenge. But they didn't stop. His mother sent thugs to destroy me. His mistress tried to erase me. Even my coworkers wanted to use me. That night, I nearly lost my life. Until Alpha Sebastian found me-cold, ruthless, unmatched. He said he didn't need a mate. But he protected me like a mate. Touched me like a mate. Looked at me like a mate, as if I already belonged to him. I tried to resist his approach. I didn't want to make the same mistake twice. Wolves would never accept a human mate. But whenever he came near me, whenever those scorching hands reached for me, I always hungered for him-wanted more-yet I was done with promises. Until I discovered that my past was not simple at all-and Sebastian had his own reasons for approaching me-
