**Cassie’s POV**Being with Derek is inevitable. Aside from being my boss, which eventually led me to see him every single day except if he did not bother me during my day off, I still see him, and he still goes to my apartment like it is his second house.But he suddenly got an appointment again in Hong Kong, and I can't be with him on his business trip since I am a single mother to my son and I have to take care of him. It is okay if Charlie has no schooling, but he is attending class, so it is a no for me.Besides, he will be gone for a couple of months, and I will be in a work-from-home situation. It is his suggestion, by the way. He said that it would be better if I worked in a much safer environment, away from those two-faced office workers.I manage to go to the airport, and I have to talk to Angel. She is the one who will be with Derek on the whole trip."This is annoying," they said in chorus. It is so ironic that they can work in synchronization, but they do not get along th
**Cassie’s POV**I invited him for dinner, and I think that is the best decision since he will eventually lock himself inside that dark apartment.Dax is a big guy because maybe he is part of the military, and his body is really fine and muscular. I can compare it to those pack warriors that I trained years before.But compared to his body, his self-esteem is very low. He is more of a shy type of boy, a quiet type of guy, but he loves children, which is why he pushed hard enough to be a teacher.Charlie once mentioned that art is a good teacher. He is playful, witty, and more of a father-like type of guy.I pulled a chair for him so he could sit there. He thanked me, and I started to pour soup into his bowl."Eat well," I said to him."Thank you; I hope I am not bothering you. Hey, buddy," he greeted my son."Hello, Mr. Dax!" My son greeted me back cheerfully.We started to eat in comfortable silence. I am so happy to see that Angel's brother is doing fine, and it looks like he is cal
**Cassie's POV**My experience has taught me that time moves at a breakneck pace. We have been gone from Clayland for several months, and life just keeps getting better and better. It amazes me that people can survive in such an environment. Despite the fact that there are still disagreements, racism, violence, and a great number of other toxic tendencies that I can see and observe on a daily basis, I continue to believe that this life is far superior to the one I led previously.My existence with Kaiden is, without a doubt, the most enjoyable part of my life. Despite the fact that it was the worst possible situation, I recall those days as being filled with so much joy. After receiving a phone call from Derek, my employer, who informed me that they will be back this week from their extended holiday, I am currently busy arranging with other departments. Derek also informed me that they will be back soon. I am overjoyed because I have the impression that our previously pleasant friend
**Cassie's Pov**Right now, I am at a loss for words due to my shock. When someone knocked on the door, I believed that it was one of my brothers, but to my astonishment, it was none other than my boss, and Angel was also there! Okay, the meal is served, and everything is ready to go when someone knocked on the door. Angel was also there."I miss you!" Derek gave me an awkwardly tight hug. My first assumption was that he must not be a typical human being with strength like that. In addition to that, he is sniffing me like crazy, which is really odd behavior for a human to exhibit. If he were a werewolf, perhaps I'd be able to comprehend him better. "Alright, I see that you don't like him. Now go away. Angel continued to speak in a hostile tone as she thanked her captor for bringing her to this location. I wish I could see her again!"What in the devil were you going on about? The response that Derek gave was, "I will stay here." They weren't squabbling when Dax stepped out of the kit
**Cassie's Point of View**I'VE BEEN TRYING TO AVOID THOSE TWO SINCE THAT DAY. I despise it when I do it, but I feel confused for some reason when they are near me. I felt the same reaction as Kaiden, and I despise the thought. Kaiden is the only person I will love above all others, and I refuse to let anybody else into my heart.I'm considering how I can easily reject them. They are humans, and I know that once they accept my decision or perspective, they will be able to go on and find someone better out there. But it's also contradictory because I can't picture myself being delighted if they meet someone better.The foundation ball is tonight. It is the company's founding anniversary, and I am obligated to go. I don't want to come since it will be a waste of my time. But it's necessary because I need to help my boss.Derek has also avoided me for the past few days, only three days, but it is nothing compared to the day he is away on business. He's clearly trying to avoid me, and I'm
**Cassie's Point of View**I AM relieved that we have reached an agreement. Derek still calls and occasionally goes outside. Despite the fact that I am extremely busy with work-related tasks, I still make time for myself and accompany him. Derek requires my assistance, and I feel the want to help him, especially in a difficult position."You want some sandwich?" Dax inquired, sitting on my pad, Charlie and he were playing, but my kid fell asleep on his lap."Let me make one for you, Charlie is sleeping on your lap, and we both don't want this little man to wake up," I replied, walking to the kitchen.I suddenly recall Chris's wish to come here tomorrow; he is OK now. He still needs to check his body weight and things, because he appeared to be ill the first time I met him a month ago.But that's because I make sure he eats at the appropriate time and in the right amount, gets enough rest, and takes care of his mental health. I am relieved that he is gradually improving.I didn't notic
**Cassie's Point of View**THE NEXT DAY is my last day working for him. Angel is so preoccupied that she simply emailed her resignation letter, and she has lost interest in our boss, or should I say soon-to-be ex-boss.I'm not sure if I've crossed the line yet, but one thing is certain: even though I despise Derek, there is something about him that makes me feel empty, so empty.I haven't been able to understand myself very well since meeting my boss and my son's teacher. I assumed that moving on and enjoying the rest of my life calmly would be simple. However, this is not the case.While strolling down the corridor, some of the employees gave me strange looks, possibly because I wasn't wearing my uniform. I'm so unattractive right now, but it doesn't matter. I have no intention of working for this company. I'm aware, and I'll face the repercussions later, but I don't mind at all right now."YOU'RE LATE!" Is this even possible? Are you completely insane? "Angel just left and left a me
**Cassie's Point of View**I THOUGHT my new work would be more chaotic than my last one, but by chance, I met another unique and difficult supervisor.Dale is crazy crap, there is no denying that, and what I am saying is true, yet to my surprise, he is far superior to Derek.Dale possesses legendary vampire features. His face and figure are enticing, just as in vampire tales and movies. He is tall and pale, and his hair is a dark raven color. His lips are always red and wet, he has a sharp jawline and almond eyes, or, to put it another way, he is devilishly attractive."You know what, Ms. Cassie, you should confess what you truly feel towards me," he continued, smirking. He sits at his table, eats some red apples, and does nothing! He's so aggravating, but at least I know he's not alone. "Shut up, jerk. "If you talk like that again, I'll call Alice," I said. He laughed. Yes, I met his human mate, who is an amazing person. At the very least, I'm no longer worried about potential relat
