CEO'S ROGUE ALPHA

"Don’t be too excited. Everything might not go as planned. We need to plan for any contingency failure. Alpha Lobo will be on standby watching. " "I agree. That is why Elder Zaya requested we accompany you and some guards will be in the distance, watching and waiting. We shall offer you protection, just in case. But I know you don’t need it. "Everest smiled warmly.

I nodded and sat down to review all the construction plans. It was late afternoon when the container door was knocked just after we had lunch and Everest had suggested that we check the engineering plans of the piped works.

"Come in," Everest answered, and then his eyes widened as we watched Levi from the city planning and Licensing walk into the container office. Everest raised his eyebrows at him with his face filled with anger and Levi interjected before either of us could speak "Sorry to come in unannounced. I wanted to have a word with you Conri" He rubbed his palms on his thighs and I noticed that this was a sign of him being nervous.

"Welcome Levi, our office is always open for you" I stood up and answered politely while I watched how Levi avoided the piercing gaze Everest was giving him. Everest stood up and pushed his chair backward. He then walked over to Levi, snickered, and then left the container.

"What the hell was that?" I demanded that Levi

"I need your help Alpha," Levi bowed his head.

"You better not let anyone hear your words Levi "I scolded him and he burst out laughing. "Sorry. I just needed the tension in the room gone," He apologized.

"Spit it out!!" I raised my hand to him.

"It’s my wolf. It wants Everest. But Everest keeps pushing us away," He confessed as he walked over to sit down and ran his fingers in his hair.

"What?" I chuckled, and my shoulders shook in response.
