My Destined Werewolf Mate

It was around 11.30 am. The weather was all sunny. Eva was nonchalantly strolling down the sidewalk, beside the Rione Monte Central Bank. She had a wistful expression on the face while holding a cheque in her right arm.

It's the money she obtained as the benefactor of some remaining fixed savings of Felix. As his only alive family member, she withdrew the money with a heavy heart. Though, she never wanted to face this helpless day all alone.​​

With tears shimmering at the corner of her eyes she peeked at the cheque once. "I should find a job as early as possible... But I have been rejected so many times that now I don't even feel the urge to go for an interview. Life totally sucks." She sounded too grievous.

Suddenly, her eyes stuck at the notice board placed on the sidewalk. Immediately she rushed towards the board and saw a pamphlet fixed there.

"Looking for hard-working and ambitious interns. Interested applicants can join the Romano Group of Business. Contact- XXX0000XXXX"

The bulletin written on the pamphlet caught her attention. Abruptly she took a picture of the pamphlet with a pleasant grin.

"Romano group is one of the most prestigious organizations. If by any chance, I can join here, I won't need to think of my living expenses from so on. I should stop by the company today only." She mumbled in a mellow tone and rushed towards her home to collect her CV for the interview. With new hopes of coping up with the doomed life, she was moving ahead with bold steps.

Little did she knew, the storms awaiting to enter her already messed up life.

Romano Business Group Main building:

Zeus finished up with the meeting held with their important sponsors and quietly headed towards his cabinet. Czar didn't attend the conference and it pissed him off. As Czar holds 20% of the shares in the company, it's mandatory for him to attend every gathering. But his ignorance made him quite agitated.

Mr. Pablo, Zeus's personal assistant was walking beside him at a slow pace. He has been his trustworthy PA for over 7 years and most importantly, he is a human.

"Why didn't Czar attend here today?" He inquired in a dubious voice.

Mr. Pablo flinched with his question and fidgeted for a moment. "Well, I don't know, sir. Maybe, he is busy somewhere." He answered politely.

Zeus wasn't pleased with his answer and he frowned his face. "Yeah, I know, must be busy with some chicks for having fun. I am frustrated with that jerk now." He continued.

Mr. Pablo moved a bit close to him and twitched his eyebrows. "Umm, sir, some of the candidates have arrived for the interview in the intern's open position. Should I sent them to you?" He asked.

Zeus seemed completely uninterested in the activity and stroked his hair upwards while heading towards his room. "I don't have any patience left to deal with candidates, you can choose the capable ones. Don't bother me for such irrelevant issues." He mumbled.

.....

Suddenly his feet halted with the perception of something unexpected. He sensed the fragrance of that captivating sweet scent of that unknown lady, which was emerging through his office. Restlessly he looked around to seek the source of the scent but the hallway was desolated. The smell was quite alluring for him as he seemed restless with the slightest perception.

Immediately a thought struck his mind. Sharply, he looked at Mr. Pablo before asking, "where are the new candidates?"

He was startled with his sudden query and ogled at him cryptically. "Sir, they all are present in the waiting room. Do you want to take a look?" He reverted back to his query.

Nonchalantly Zeus tilted his head in response. His mind was filled up with curiosities. The sensation of that unique smell provoked his intrusiveness to a high extent. With gallant steps, he boldly headed towards the waiting room.

As he walked more close to the room, the sensation of that fragrance eventually got stronger. The fragrance seemed to have wholly overtaken his mind which was going benumb. With an undefined longingness, he stopped at the door. But, suddenly he regained his senses and refrained from walking inside. His heart was throbbing unconditionally fast and he seemed too restless. Mr. Pablo was ogling at him inquisitively with his obscure gaze.

There was a glass windowpane placed on the wooden door. Zeus silently raised his chin up and peeked at the candidates present inside.

To his shock, that ambiguous lady was sitting inside with a fretful expression prominent on her face. Zeus jolted away from the door and rolled his eyes in surprise. "I... I wasn't wrong! I can indeed sense her presence! I...I can perceive her smell... But what is she doing here?" He anticipated while gasping aloud. Without uttering a single word, he stood all numb.

"Sir, should we walk in?" Mr. Pablo suggested.

He glanced at him once and sighed deeply. "I... I won't go inside. Mr.Pablo, you can hold the interview and send their applications to me for verification. I will be off to my room." After conveying his words he started strolling swiftly towards his room to hide his clumsy gestures.

Mr. Pablo gazed at him all the way from behind, while he was walking away. "Why does sir looks so restless today? Is anything wrong here with the candidates?" He mumbled with a heavy breathe out.

.....

Zeus almost rushed to his room and hopped on his chair strenuously. His mind was too puzzled and he gulped down some water to calm himself. With a heavy sigh, he stared outside the window.

"Why? Why I can't control my instincts around the smell? How can the smell of a mere ignorant human captivate a sturdy beast like me? Why do I keep crossing paths with that weird lady? Did I commit a grave mistake by saving her life last night?" He thought with an anxious gaze.
