•   •  Adams POV  •  •

I drive out of the forest, rushing home to have a nice bath with some good and very expensive cosmetics, it's been long since I had such a nice bath, just thinking about it makes me smile like a fool.

This world has a very nice and attractive fragrance, which lifts my mood. This human world is so different, I wish I could stay here forever, unfortunately, my power doesn't work here and I can't just get old and die, it's too weird and insensitive.

Why can't we all just live forever?. Sometimes I pity this humans, after suffering for nearly all their lives, they die just when they start to enjoy the fruit of their hard labour and they call it retirement, haha... It's so pathetic to see all these old wealthy men counting their numbers of days on earth.

The gateman opens the gate to my Maison, as soon as he notices my old grey car. I drive-in, I move out of the car. He takes the key to go park it in the garage.

I rush in to have a quality refreshing bath. I order a maid to prepare all the necessary for my bath. Unfortunately, I have no maid. Only the cleaning agency which passes twice a week to clean mess or dust. I frown when I remember this since I have to do everything by myself.

After doing all the necessary, I take a long bath in the large bath of my room. I walk out of the bathing bowl, picking up a towel to wipe my body after which I rub my skin with good lotions and I dress. I call for my driver to get ready. It's been long since we last saw each other.

While he get ready to come. I hurry to the kitchen to grab something to eat. Unfortunately, all the stuff in the fridge are expired.

"Sir, the car is ready." he lead me to my fat black car different from the one I came with from the bush and more luxurious. I take a seat in, quickly checking my emails. OMG, they are more than a thousand unread messages, how on earth will I go through all of them. I drop the phone.

"Sir, we have arrived!" he opens the door. I quickly step out, practically running into the lifter. I impatiently wait in the lifter, which seems really slow.

It finally opens and my secretary is strutting by the door impatiently waiting for me. Widen my eyes in surprised when I see her. She doesn't even give me the time to settle in that she's already speaking like a parrot.

"Good Morning, sir, you have been missing for close to two months now, and  work has been piling on the desk; unsigned contracts and unpaid checks and salaries." I frown as I walk out of the lifter. She doesn't mind as she follows me to my office.

"You have to sign all these papers before you leave. You have a meeting with the share holders and they are really pissed off, they say you don't take them seriously, you leave without any excuse, and workers complain of not receiving their salaries, profits have dropped." she recites nonstop.

I walk in and I fall on my seat, helplessly. My desk is filled with document, making mounts racing to the ceiling. This makes me sick and tired of her noise.

"Don't mind their little complains, I have everything in control. I just need you to get back to your desk and allow me to work. I have to sign all these documents, remember!" I point at the door. "And I hope this is all right?" I carelessly ask. My hand is still up pointing the Path out.

"How I wish?" she says, sadly. "We have so much unpaid taxes, and they send us a sanction saying that, if we don't pay in two weeks the company will be closed till further notice. They send it to your email and this is the hard copy on your table." She slowly shifts the letter to me nervously as if it's her fault.

Then she adds, in a very low tone now as if I'm her gossip, mate and this makes her look silly as she speaks "The shareholders are worried, sir. I also heard from a reliable source that, they are ready to pay for the taxes, on one condition, that you sell all your shares to Mr Cameron, or you simply give your responsibility to someone more available and reliable; Mr Cameron."

"What?. That basted? he has always wanted my position. Unfortunately, for him I'm the CEO and owner of this company and this will remain so until further notice. They can go to hell with their money... I will sort this out myself. Carol, check all my bank accounts even the foreign ones, I need a total of my net wealth, asap!" I seriously wave her out.

"Okay, I'm doing that now. Please, - the papers, - you need to sign them." she insists with a trembling voice. "Get out! And make sure no one comes in." I simply wave her out.

As soon as she leaves, I lock the door behind me then I take back my seat. I partially shift into my wolf to read and sign all the piles of papers in front of me. I sign the necessary ones and I reject the unnecessary.

Then, I walk out of the office looking at my wrist watch "I think I'm left with 10minutes to reach the meeting." I strut by Carol's desk.

"Sir, have you signed the papers?. You need to sign them before you leave, a lot is on hold and I have to start distributingng some of them today..." she starts talking none stop.

I slice in-between her speech "Carol?! will you just shut the hell up!. All are signed, except for the ones I dislike, they are all separate. I want  all of those documents out of my office before I get back."

"Wow, how come?" she marvels while I walk out of the building with my phone in my hands. I try to read as many messages as I can, especially the ones from my vicious shareholders.

"Sir, where to?" the driver ask as he opens the car for me. "No, you aren't coming with me this time. You can take your day off." I seize the keys from his hands. He locks the backdoor then he rushes to open the driver's side, I follow from behind then I seat in.

"Thank you, sir" he locks the door. I drop my phone and I drive off.

Adams speed up so fast that he causes lots of confusion on the road. When he's aware of his high speed, there is no way to stop. He has to reach on time as a sign of respect for his colleagues. Once he reaches any empty freeway he increase his speed more. This is when he wishes he had his powers.

Nothing can stop him from accelerating. Until he's car hits someone and he has to stop "Shit!" he exclaims as he angrily moves out of the car. "I hope it's one of these abandoned dogs." he moves to the front of his car, angrily.

"Call an ambulance, shit." in a few seconds the empty streets becomes crowded with people. So crowded that I could hear a siren.

Surprisingly, I can capt the sound from a distance. I immediately carry the young girl into my car and I take her to the nearest hospital.

The police are following him behind with their car but they have stopped their horn. Adams park his car rushing the girl into the hospital in his arms. She isn't breathing but she's seriously bleeding "Someone should help." he screams

Some nurses rush to him with a sickbed. He lays the girl on it. "I will be back. Please take good care of her," he tells the nurses as he plans to rush to the meeting, before coming back.

So he walk out of the building hastily, to find the police waiting for him with guns pointing at him "You are under arrest. Kneel down and put your hands on your head." they announce as usual.

I'm not that surprised, I just wish I could attend my meeting before they arrest me. I place my hands on my head "I'm okay with all this,- I understand that is your work. But with due respect I have to rush to a meeting now or I will lose my company." I explain as one of the policemen handcuff me.

"A girl may die because of you and all you care about is your fucking money?." he pushes me into the car angrily. "Mind your ways,- it's clear you don't know who I am," I warn him.

"I don't care about who you are, absurdity." he brutally presses my head down as flings me at the back seat of the car. Then he enters and seat by me with his fat belly which is taking nearly the whole space.

Then I hear a tiny sound coming down from his seat; from his ass and the whole place start smelling so bad "Like seriously." I cry while lifting my lips to my nose and there is no way I can cover my nose, with my hand behind my back. I'm suffocating...

"Hahaha." he taunts. "You will pay for this," I scream. "Do I look like I care." he laughs louder this time. "Oh, no..." He's colleague cry as he drivers off.

I'm taken to the police station where I try to explain to them what happened but they don't give a damn. I had to recite all my rights before they ever gave me the phone to call my lawyer.

Once my lawyer arrives they keep him waiting as if they have much work to do. Meanwhile, they are in their boss's office craking jokes and laughing like fools that we can hear them from outside.

They later receive my lawyer who does the necessary and call the influential people who order my release and this makes these policemen madder at me. But do I look like I care?. No! Hahaha!.

"This country is suffering from injustice because of people like you." the policeman releases me angrily hurling his words at my face.

"I'm sincerely sorry about that," I whisper into his ears sarcastically as I happily move out from the cell, straight to my lawyer. I can't even spend more seconds in this rat cell.

My lawyer seems to be what worried as I move to him "Just pray that girl remains alive." he says. We walk out and we separate, taking our private car.

"I have a meeting to attend." I tell myself.
