Chapter 46: Chapter 46

I gasped as I stood face to face with Greg's perfect face. His eyes seemed to insert themselves through my soul while his gaze completely unsettled me. I felt my heart race in my chest and I wanted to reach out and caress that beautiful face in front of me.

Luckily, my sanity quickly returned and I held back, especially when the image of my alpha played in my mind. I have no right to treat him with so little respect when he loves me so much even if hiding from me annoys me more than anything.

I cleared my throat and took a step back putting some distance between us. I don't know if it's my imagination but I saw Greg crack a small smile before that glint disappeared.

" Hello Mr. Travis, let me introduce myself again, I'm Sophia Carpenter and I will be your new assistant today. Please take care of me."

I greeted him politely as Greg resumed a solemn expression and nodded as he spoke.

"Well, Sophia please follow me."

He moved away from the door before walking with me on his heels. One thing quickly came to mind as I followed him. The man who told us, it seems to me, is also Greg's assistant, so what is my role in this story? If he already has an assistant why would he still need me? Unless it's a setup.

Greg would have organized all this so that I would return to his side. No, it's impossible, how would he know I was in Capital City? And more, Elsa would never have accepted since she defends the interests of her friend who is my alpha. She gets so irritable and protective when a man approaches me, or is it just when Jessy does?

No, I shouldn't have such illusions, if I start spacing out like this, I'll still get my mind around it and start thinking about Greg romantically again.

No, I don't have to do that.

Greg led me to his office where I saw a desk moved across from a larger one. I imagine it's his desk since there was his stuff on the table and his jacket hanging on the seat. I gulped before looking at him waiting for what he was going to say to me.

" As you must know, the position of assistant that you will occupy from now on is very important since most of my professional and personal life will be in your hands."

I gulped, I don't like that kind of responsibility especially when it comes to the richest man in the world. It weighs on my shoulders just to think about my task.

As Greg explained to me what my new position entailed, my expression was more that of a washed-up person. Thousands of people would like to be in my place and get this opportunity, but I find it a little too heavy for my frail shoulders to bear.

Managing the diary and the smallest details related to all the empire of Greg until his personal life, I do not believe that I am capable of it. I felt my body drain off all its strength before noticing that Greg had stopped talking.

My body stiffened before heating up abruptly as Greg put his hand on my shoulder and leaned against me, his hot breath tickling my cheek and neck. I could hear my heart beating fast and loud in my chest as Greg started talking again.

" You are not listening to me."

After the surprise by his gesture, I jumped away from him, my face on fire as my breathing hitched.

"Do you feel well?"

Damn no, I'm not well and it's your fault. But he didn't seem more troubled than I thought earlier, I'm dreaming for nothing like an idiot while he just wanted to inquire about my situation seeing that I wasn't paying attention to his words.

I swallowed heavily before deciding to pull myself together, I knew it, this job will not only be difficult because I have no experience but my boss is not going to make it easy for me with his smoldering eyes, his sexy body, his captivating voice and the memory of our moments spent by the beach.

I bit my lip before I smelled a sweet smell coming from Greg, it was so good, it made me so obsessed. I licked my lips before following this scent that I couldn't resist.

Slowly I moved forward feeling my breathing quicken and I put my hand on Greg's chest.

I looked up at him as his face remained expressionless even though deep in his eyes, an enthusiastic glow shone or I just imagined.

Greg watched Sophia's gestures the whole time and bit his lip, he might have covered his scent with a perfume designed for the occasion, so that Sophia wouldn't recognize him. He masked his pheromones with a powerful annihilator made on purpose to him, but it looks like his Luna is sensitive to his scent despite his efforts.

He can see it clearly in her gaze, her eyes are dilated, and her lustful expression while her face is peony red.

It looks like she's going to jump on him and he's not sure he wants to push her away, he wants her so badly that it hurts.

Sophia put her hand on his chest stroking it as she raised her other hand to his jaw.

"Kiss Me."

He was in a mess.
