The moment Selena stepped into the Director of Public Relations office,she wasted no time.Without further ceremony,she demanded,“Charlene,command yourself to explain this intervention regarding Xena’s endorsement.”
Charlene was not surprised to see Selena approach her territory.She crossed her arms,adopting a slow,calculated pace.“Mate Selena,why are you projecting such aggression?Please take a seat.”
A sharp irritation flashed through Selena’s eyes.She replied,“Do not attempt to subdue me.Alpha Kian has already granted his approval of the plan.Why are you interfering with the McKesson Initiative?”
“So what if I intervened?What dominance level do you possess to command me?If it were not for your short-lived Alpha-Father,could you even be incorporated into the Volkov bloodline and serve as the McKesson director?You seem to have forgotten the debt that brought you here,”Charlene taunted,refusing to display any sign of submission.
Selena felt the powerful,ancient anger boiling within her wolf’s blood,but she managed to lock down her composure,meeting Charlene’s gaze with steely resolve.“My assignment to the director position is not your concern.You possess no relevant data,yet you project great dominance,”she retorted.
She would not allow anyone to insult the memory of her Alpha-Father!Never!
As the tension between Selena and Charlene escalated,the air in the chamber felt dense,suffused with a charged atmosphere that drew the attention of many operatives away from their duties.Instead,all eyes were fixed on the fiery exchange unfolding before them.
“What?Am I incorrect?Are you not the female who tried to burrow her way into the Volkov bloodline?Did you not attempt to lure Alpha Kian?”Charlene added fuel to the fire,wearing a disdainful snarl as she looked sarcastically at Selena.
Charlene had frequently sensed Selena’s presence near Kian’s den and observed her entering his secured sanctum several times in the Conglomerate.Thus,she utilized her resources to investigate the Mate.She soon discovered Selena was merely a debt-burdened female,relying on her Alpha-Father’s past service to the Volkov Patriarch for adoption.It was rumored that Selena even used this ancient debt to manipulate the Volkov family into politically binding her to the Alpha.And now that she held a position of rank,she repeatedly pestered and attempted to entice Kian.
