Chapter 3 He never grew up
- Chapter Three – He never grew up.
- Nathan cleared his throat before handing her a file. She smiled, finally something professional but her shoulders slumped.
- “To be your bed warmer? $1000 a day” she read the file in her hands. She grinned, turning to Nathan. He grinned back.
- But a slap to his face wiped it all off. Whistle scrunched his face, mentally feeling Nathan's pain. But he knew the young man enjoyed it.
- “So you are a pervert, eh? To think I opened up my financial problems to you!” Stephanie pulled her hair. How did she get into this?
- Nathan tapped on the file she held. She looked at where he tapped and saw another option.
- “Or be my secretary at the Pure Silver Company for $25,000 a month?!”.
- Her jaw dropped. What’s did he mean? Nathan brought out a card and waved it on her face. That was his business card. Her body went cold.
- She was with the CEO of Pure Silver Company. One of the biggest perfume brands in the world. And she just slapped their CEO?!
- She gulped down air, “Nathan. So you are…” she trailed looking back at the file. She took the pen besides it and ticked the second option.
- Nathan smirked, “You’d start your job by this coming Monday then”. She nodded silently.
- There was something about the smirk on his face, and even if she knew it meant trouble, she wasn’t backing out of that sweet job.
- Whistle gave her an encouraging nod and she smiled at the man. She sat in the car for a while, trying to take in everything.
- “Or do you want to start now. It’s Thursday, should I drive you there?” Nathan snapped her out. She shook her head, running out of the car.
- Nathan chuckled but it turned to a pout. He wished she’d let him drive her. Before she got in the house, he stuck his head out and shouted.
- “Hey, I’d pick you myself on Monday” seeing her angry face, he added, “I need to show you around early. It’s in the policy you signed”.
- Stephanie froze. She didn’t read the goddamn file and just signed it. She tried returning back to the car but Whistle sped off immediately.
- “Hey, pervert!” she yelled after them, “If there’s any lewd stuff in there, I won’t do it. I wouldn’t do it even if I signed it” she dragged her hair more.
- Headache pangs started filtering in and she shuffled her feet back to her home. On the plus side, she just got a job at Pure Silver Company.
- Her siblings wouldn’t be disappointed when they returned home. Hopping back to her room, she sang a rhyme she always used to know.
- That was her victory song, along with a small dance. Her phone, on her bed, beeped and she fell down on the bed, sprawling her hands to it.
- “Yes girls, I got the job. Don’t worry when you return by Sunday, you’d give me a hairdo for my first day. Love you. Say hi to mom for me. Bye”.
- She cut the line and smiled. And her siblings would be proud of her, another plus.
- She could also get enough cash for her dad’s hospital bills. Yet another plus. Not to forget the honor of working at such a prestigious place.
- The only minus would be, having that perverted soul as a boss. But she’s Stephanie Wills, she can handle all those men.
- Boys knew she never played their game. After her family comes money, and more money. Love is nineteenth down her most important things.
- She’s twenty-two and had her head high like a damn queen. She paid the bills, her dad was sick and mom retired. And they deserved to rest.
- At Pure Silver Pack, The Main Pack Mansion.
- Nathan sneaked steadily into his mother’s room just before she walked in. He gently opened her cupboard but left it half open.
- He tiptoed to her bed and ruffled the sheets, piling pillows under. Then finally hides inside her bathroom. His mother walked in.
- Her eyes got hold of the ruffled sheets and pile and she smirked. She crept closer before she froze. Her son wouldn’t be this easy.
- She noticed the half opened cupboard and nodded, as she shouted, opening it, another shout, from the bathroom, made her jump.
- She fell, with her butt, to the ground, her fangs and claws already flying from their places to attack whoever. She sighed seeing her son.
- Nathan began laughing at his mother, he fell on the ground as well. The woman just sat there, staring at him. This child of hers never grew up.
- “But it was funny, accept that” Nathan snickered, helping her up.
- She shoved his hand gently, “I don’t need help getting up. I am not weak or scared and I could have hurt you, you know” she rolled her eyes.
- Even if he wasn’t a wolf like her other children, he still gave her more trouble than any of them did. He always did this since he was eight.
- And her wolf hearing, why didn’t she hear anything when it came to him? And he was so discreet and cunning? Like it was his specialty.
- “Why are you quiet? Are you planning on how to repay me? Save your time. It won’t work” he played with her hands as they laid on her bed.
- She gasped and began pouring out all the things she did for the day to him. He was her chat buddy now her mate was in Europe.
- She wondered if he ever got bored of her old stories and why he never had friends of his own. She sat up, posturing like a concerned mother.
- “The company is fine if that’s what you want to ask” Nathan didn’t bother rise from the bed.
- “Well, you are doing good with the company. Your sister was right to let you handle it while she handled the pack”.
- Nathan smiled contentedly, at least what she wanted to say wasn’t about the company. No one noticed the buildings he just bought for the bet.
- “I want to talk about getting yourself a wife”.
- Nathan felt his head fall to his groin and try to force itself from the hole in his peñis. That what a weird reaction, but it was how he felt.
- “Mom, apart from family, I can’t touch a person. You know this. I don’t even have a girlfriend and you want a wife?” was she kidding him?
- She started an unrealistically long argument with him, denying his allegations, “You just don’t like people but you can find the right one”.
- He stopped himself from scoffing so he wouldn’t annoy her. His body was shivering and sweat beads were around his neck.
- His mother noticed and touched him.
- “Even speaking about touching a person makes my body shiver. Mother, except who my body voluntarily craves for, I can’t touch anyone”.
- It was his curse, or better, an allergy. One he wasn’t afraid to have. One that he had grown to accept. One that can only be changed by a girl.
