In the morning light, the Alpha King Larry, ruler of the werewolf Kingdom, embarked on his journey to Prosper Technologies, laden with provisions to nourish his pack. While those in the world of business may not recognize Alpha Kilian, they were all too familiar with the infamous Alpha King Larry. He was a formidable figure, renowned for his ruthlessness in building the powerful Morris Corporation. His very presence commanded both respect and fear from anyone who dared cross his path.
Within the office, Nelson, a member of the pack and an employee, had also returned to work. However, before he could locate his fellow pack member Nelly and express his gratitude, news of Alpha King Larry’s arrival spread like wildfire. Startled, Nelson hastily made his way downstairs to greet the dominant alpha.
“Why are you here, Old Alpha Morris? If there is anything, simply let your subordinates inform us,” Nelson cautiously uttered. The retirement of Alpha King Larry and the passing of the company to Alpha Kilian were commonly known. However, the powerful alpha still held immense sway and influence within the organization.
Alpha King Larry glanced at him dismissively, waving his hand. “It matters not. I have personal matters to attend to.”
“Shall I assist you then?” Nelson inquired, his nerves tingling with apprehension.
“No. You may resume your duties,” Alpha King Larry nonchalantly replied, dismissing Nelson with little thought.
However, Nelson dared not comply. In the presence of such an authoritative figure, he couldn’t simply return to work. Instead, he remained by Alpha King Larry’s side, doing his utmost to accommodate and host him.
Without delay, Alpha King Larry ascended the stairs, heading directly towards the Programming Department.
Unbeknownst to Alpha King Larry, Nelly was engrossed in a project discussion with her colleagues when a voice called out her name, echoing through the air. “Nelly!”
Startled, she turned towards the source to find Alpha King Larry approaching her with urgency. “Nelly, let me see your injury.”
A mixture of astonishment and confusion washed over Nelly. “Why are you here, Old Alpha Morris?”
Ignoring her question, Alpha King Larry pressed on, his words laced with concern. “Something so grave happened to you, and that brat Alpha Kilian didn’t even bother to inform me. If it weren’t for Alpha Wade, I would still be in the dark. Where is your injury?” His piercing gaze scanned her body, searching for any signs of harm.
“I am fine, merely a small cut on my arm,” Nelly replied vaguely.
Alpha King Larry’s heart clenched with worry as he observed her injured arm. “A small cut? You must rest and take care of yourself. What did the doctor say?”
“He assured me it will heal soon,” Nelly answered.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Relieved, Alpha King Larry released a sigh. “I have brought some nutritious products for you. You must consume them regularly to maintain good health!” He motioned towards a group of individuals who promptly placed the items by her side, their presence leaving Nelly, as well as the Programming Department, astounded and captivated.
A collective silence fell over the room as all eyes fixated on her.
Who was Nelly exactly? How could she summon the illustrious Old Alpha Morris and engage in such an intimate conversation with him? Could she be Alpha Kilian’s long-lost sister? These questions buzzed in their minds, fueling their curiosity.
Sensing the mounting interest and gossip surrounding her, Nelly knew she had to intervene to quell the situation. “Old Alpha Morris, I cannot possibly consume all of this. Furthermore, I cannot transport them by myself,” she urgently stated.
Alpha King Larry was taken aback. “I hadn’t considered that. Did you drive here? I will instruct them to move the items to your car.”
“I do not own a car,” Nelly confessed.
Frowning, Alpha King Larry’s displeasure deepened. “Then how do you commute to work?”
“I hail a taxi,” Nelly admitted.
This revelation only added to Alpha King Larry’s dissatisfaction. Without a word, he swiftly retrieved his phone and made a call. “Alpha Kilian, have Fabian purchase a new car for Nelly.”
Nelly and the entire Programming Department were left speechless.
What on earth?
Before she could react, Alpha King Larry glanced towards the room, his voice warm and polite. “Apologies for disrupting your work! I shall soon take my leave.”
Such an endearing and benevolent figure. Despite his immense wealth and power, he maintains his affability and warmth.
In the cafe downstairs, Nelly observed Alpha King Larry, her mind racing. “Old Alpha Morris, how did you come to know that I work here?”
“Alpha Kilian informed me,” he replied, savoring a sip of his coffee.
What was Alpha Kilian plotting? This mess would prove to be quite challenging to navigate.
“Old Alpha Morris, please call Alpha Kilian and inform him that I do not require the car,” Nelly pleaded.
“Why not?” Alpha King Larry countered. “Countless people commute to work every day. Hailing a taxi is dangerous. It is better to have your own means of transportation!”
“I can rest during my taxi ride. Driving myself would be exhausting,” Nelly argued.
Frowning, Alpha King Larry pondered for a moment. “I shall have Alpha Kilian employ a driver for you as well.”
Interrupting, Nelly begged, “Old Alpha Morris!” When she saw him reaching for his phone, she urgently halted him. “What I am trying to say is… this is not appropriate.”
“Why not?” Alpha King Larry genuinely puzzled.
“I am divorced from Alpha Kilian. I cannot accept all of these gifts,” Nelly asserted firmly.
Upon hearing her words, Alpha King Larry’s brow furrowed. “It is I who am presenting you with these gifts, not Alpha Kilian. This is not his money. Even if you do not want his offerings, are you going to refuse mine as well?”
“Old Alpha Morris, fundamentally, it is the same,” Nelly insisted.
His displeasure grew as he uttered, “So now that you are divorced from Alpha Kilian, are you denying my existence too?”
“Of course not!” Nelly shook her head, her heart still clinging to the memories of Alpha King Larry’s unwavering kindness.
“Precisely! Consider this a gesture of goodwill from me to you. Let us pretend Alpha Kilian does not exist,” Alpha King Larry stated with a warm smile.
Nelly persisted, “Old Alpha Morris, I understand your intentions, but this will only lead to misunderstandings with Alpha Kilian’s girlfriend.”
“Alpha Kilian’s girlfriend? Who?” Alpha King Larry questioned.
“Lara, the woman who is always at his side,” Nelly responded.
A hearty laugh escaped Alpha King Larry’s lips. “That girl? Who told you she is Alpha Kilian’s girlfriend?”
